Purification and Characterization of a Novel Pumpkin Short-Chain Acyl-Coenzyme A Oxidase with Structural Similarity to Acyl-Coenzyme A Dehydrogenases [PDF]

open access: yesPlant Physiology, 2000
Abstract A novel pumpkin (Cucurbita  pepo) short-chain acyl-coenzyme A (CoA) oxidase (ACOX) was purified to homogeneity by hydrophobic-interaction, hydroxyapatite, affinity, and anion-exchange chromatography. The purified enzyme is a tetrameric protein, consisting of apparently identical 47-kD subunits.

Structural Basis of Sequential Enantioselective Epoxidation by a Flavin‐Dependent Monooxygenase in Lasalocid A Biosynthesis

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Lsd18 is a flavin‐dependent monooxygenase from Streptomyces lasalocidi that performs two enantioselective epoxidations during lasalocid A biosynthesis. X‐ray crystal structures of Lsd18 bound to a substrate and product analogue illuminate how this enzyme performs multiple epoxidations on the same substrate molecule and how it controls stereoselectivity.

Chain ordering of phospholipids in membranes containing cholesterol: What matters? [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2021
Cholesterol (CHOL) drives lipid segregation and is thus a key player for the formation of lipid rafts and followingly for the ability of a cell to, e.g., enable selective agglomeration of proteins. The lipid segregation is driven by cholesterol's affinity for saturated lipids, which stands directly in relation to the ability of cholesterol to order the

Activation of hypolipidaemic drugs to acyl-coenzyme A thioesters [PDF]

open access: yesBiochemical Journal, 1986
Compounds possessing the characteristics of CoA thioesters of the hypolipidaemic peroxisome proliferators clofibric acid, nafenopin and ciprofibrate were formed on incubation of the drugs with rat liver microsomal fractions, ATP and CoA. The reactivity of the drugs correlated with their pharmacological potency. It is proposed that the active species of

Long-Chain Fatty Acyl Coenzyme A Ligase FadD2 Mediates Intrinsic Pyrazinamide Resistance in Mycobacterium tuberculosis

open access: yesAntimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy, 2016
Pyrazinamide (PZA) is a first-line tuberculosis (TB) drug that has been in clinical use for 60 years yet still has an unresolved mechanism of action.

A Missing Key to Understand the Electrical Resonance and the Mechanical Property of Neurons: a Channel-Membrane Interaction Mechanism [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2023
The recent study of the interaction between the fatty acyl tails of lipids and the K+ channel establishes the connection between flexoelectricity and the ion channel's dynamics, named Channel-Membrane Interaction (CMI), that may solve the electrical resonance in neurons.

Short-chain acyl-coenzyme A dehydrogenase deficiency [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular Genetics and Metabolism, 2008
Short-chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase deficiency (SCADD) is a disorder of mitochondrial fatty acid oxidation that leads to the accumulation of butyrylcarnitine and ethylmalonic acid in blood and urine. Originally described with a relatively severe phenotype, most patients are now diagnosed through newborn screening by tandem mass spectrometry and remain ...

Massive endocytosis triggered by surface membrane palmitoylation under mitochondrial control in BHK fibroblasts

open access: yeseLife, 2013
Large Ca transients cause massive endocytosis (MEND) in BHK fibroblasts by nonclassical mechanisms. We present evidence that MEND depends on mitochondrial permeability transition pore (PTP) openings, followed by coenzyme A (CoA) release, acyl CoA ...

Characterization of a Bifunctional Archaeal Acyl Coenzyme A Carboxylase [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Bacteriology, 2003
ABSTRACT Acyl coenzyme A carboxylase (acyl-CoA carboxylase) was purified from Acidianus brierleyi . The purified enzyme showed a unique subunit structure (three subunits with apparent molecular masses of 62, 59, and 20 kDa) and a molecular mass of approximately 540 kDa, indicating an α 4
