The phosphatidylinositol transfer protein isolated from brain, liver, heart and platelets was found to be present in two subforms which could be distinguished on the basis of the isoelectric points. In this study we have demonstrated that the two subforms isolated from bovine brain are due to the presence of either phosphatidylinositol or phosphatidylcholine in the lipid binding site of the protein. The transfer protein accommodates one phosphatidylinositol molecule in the binding site. The binding site for the sn-2 fatty acyl chain was investigated by incorporating in the transfer protein either phosphatidylinositol or phosphatidylcholine carrying a parinaroyl-chain attached at the sn-2 position. Time-resolved fluorescence spectroscopy revealed that the sn-2 fatty acyl chains for both phospholipids in the lipid-protein complex were completely immobilized (i.e., rotational correlation times of 17.4 ns for phosphatidylcholine and 16.3 ns for phosphatidylinositol). The similarity in correlation times suggests that the sn-2 fatty acyl chains of both phospholipids are accommodated in the same hydrophobic binding site of the protein.
