The effects of chlorpromazine on the mobility of cytochrome P-450 and the fluidity of lipid membranes have been investigated in bovine adrenocortical submitochondrial particles (SMP). Rotational diffusion of the cytochrome was measured by observing the decay of absorption anisotropy, ra(t), after photolysis of the heme.CO complex by a vertically polarized laser flash. Analysis of ra(t) was based on a 'rotation-about-membrane-normal' model. The anisotropy decayed within 2 ms to a time independent value r3. The presence of chlorpromazine decreased the mobile population of cytochrome P-450 from 28 to 23%. The rotational relaxation time phi a of the mobile population (approximately 1100 microseconds) was, however, not significantly changed by chlorpromazine. The lipid fluidity was examined by observing time-resolved fluorescence anisotropy, rf(t), of 1,6-diphenyl 1,3,5-hexatriene (DPH). The anisotropy rf(t) decayed within 70 ns to a time independent value r infinity. The motion of DPH was analyzed based on a 'wobbling-in-cone' model. The presence of chlorpromazine decreased the cone angle from 42 degrees to 39 degrees, while the rotational relaxation time phi f (approximately 2 ns) was not significantly changed by the presence of chlorpromazine. These results demonstrate that chlorpromazine decreased the mobility of not only lipids but also membrane proteins.
