چکیده

Coenzyme A esters of all-trans- and 13-cis-retinoic acid were synthesized for use in studying vitamin A metabolism. The esters were obtained by two different synthetic methods starting from retinoic acids, which were converted to activated succinimidyl esters or anhydrides. These in turn were coupled with coenzyme A to form their respective thioesters. The retinoyl coenzyme A esters were purified by reverse-phase high performance liquid chromatography.

Enzymatic synthesis of the coenzyme A ester of o-succinylbenzoic acid, an intermediate in menaquinone (vitamin K2) biosynthesis.

The quinonoid moiety of menaquinones (i.e., vitamin K,) (V) is known to be biosynthetically derived from shikimic acid [l] and 4-(2’.carboxyphenyl)4oxobutanoic acid (i.e., o-succinylbenzoic acid, OSB) (I) [2] (fig-l). While the cell-free synthesis of (I) has not yet been demonstrated its enzymic conversion to 1,4-dihydroxy-2-naphthoic acid (DHNA) (III) was shown to require ATP and CoASH [3]. Th...

4-(2'-Carboxyphenyl)-4-oxobutyryl coenzyme A ester, an intermediate in vitamin K2 (menaquinone) biosynthesis.

Enzyme preparations from Mycobacterium phlei, Escherichia coli and Galium mollugo cell suspension cultures were incubated in the presence of 4-(2'-carboxyphenyl)-4-oxobutyrate (i.e. o-succinylbenzoic acid, OSB, 1), ATP, coenzyme A and Mg2+. The main product isolated from the incubation mixture was 4-(2'-carboxyphenyl)-4-oxobutyryl coenzyme A ester (2) as determined by comparison with synthetic ...

Metabolism of retinol and retinoic acid in N-methyl-N-nitrosourea-induced mammary carcinomas in rats.

This study was conducted to examine the in vivo uptake and metabolism of natural retinoids by N-methyl-N-nitrosourea-induced mammary carcinomas. In this study, endogenous retinol and retinyl esters were present in normal mammary epithelial cells, but were undetectable in N-methyl-N-nitrosourea-induced mammary carcinomas in rats as determined by high-pressure liquid chromatography. No difference...

The effect of bilateral intrahippocampal injection of all–trans retinoic acid on spatial learning in adult male rats.

Introduction: Previous studies have shown that vitamin A and its derivatives such as retinoid and all-trans retinoic acid have a crucial role in memory, learning and synaptic plasticity. The receptors of vitamin A are seen in different parts of the brain such as hippocampus, where vitamin A has an important role in learning. In this study, the effect of intrahippocampal (CA1) injection of al...
