We combined sum frequency generation (SFG) vibrational spectroscopy, laser scanning confocal microscopy (LSCM) and attenuated total reflection infrared spectroscopy (ATR-IR) to study the hydrolysis of phospholipids catalyzed by a Ca2+-dependent enzyme, honey bee venom phospholipase A2 (bvPLA2). The experiments demonstrated that Ca2+ ions mediated between the lipids and bvPLA2, induced reorientation of bvPLA2, and activated hydrolysis. One of hydrolysis products, fatty acids, was desorbed, and the other one, lysophospholipids, self-organized at the interface. This study provides a refreshing and vivid picture at the molecular and micron levels for people to understand the Ca2+-dependent interfacial lipid hydrolysis catalyzed by bvPLA2.
