Abstract:
:The multienzyme complex for fatty acid oxidation was purified from Pseudomonas fragi, which was grown on oleic acid as the sole carbon source. This complex exhibited enoyl-CoA hydratase [EC 4.2.1.17], 3-hydroxyacyl-CoA dehydrogenase [EC 1.1.1.35], 3-oxoacyl-CoA thiolase [EC 2.3.1.16], cis-3,trans-2-enoyl-CoA isomerase [EC 5.3.3.3], and 3-hydroxyacyl-CoA epimerase [EC 5.1.2.3] activities. The molecular weight of the native complex was estimated to be 240,000. Two types of subunits, with molecular weights of 73,000 and 42,000, were identified. The complex was composed of two copies each of the 73,000- and 42,000-Da subunits. The beta-oxidation system was reconstituted in vitro using the multienzyme complex, acyl-CoA synthetase and acyl-CoA oxidase. This reconstituted system completely oxidized saturated fatty acids with acyl chains of from 4 to 18 carbon atoms as well as unsaturated fatty acids having cis double bonds extending from odd-numbered carbon atoms. However, unsaturated fatty acids having cis double bonds extending from even-numbered carbon atoms were not completely oxidized to acetyl-CoA: about 5 mol of acetyl-CoA was produced from 1 mol of linoleic or alpha-linolenic acid, and about 2 mol of acetyl-CoA from 1 mol of gamma-linolenic acid. These results suggested that the 3-hydroxyacyl-CoA epimerase in the complex was not operative. When the epimerase was by-passed by the addition of 2,4-dienoyl-CoA reductase to the reconstituted system, unsaturated fatty acids with cis double bonds extending from even-numbered carbon atoms were also completely degraded to acetyl-CoA.
