An NADH-Dependent Acetoacetyl-CoA Reductase from Euglena gracilis: Purification and Characterization, Including Inhibition by Acyl Carrier Protein.
نویسنده
چکیده
An NADH-dependent acetoacetyl-CoA reductase from Euglena gracilis variety bacillaris was extensively purified and characterized. Two different isoelectric forms of the reductase with identical characteristics otherwise were found. The reductase was noncompetitively inhibited by acyl carrier protein, K(i) 5.6 micromolar at pH 5.4; this inhibition decreased with increasing pH or ionic strength. Coenzyme A was a competitive inhibitor, K(i) 230 micromolar. Kinetic parameters with respect to acetoacetyl-CoA and NADH were sensitive to changes in pH and ionic strength.

Mitochondrial trans-2-enoyl-CoA reductase of wax ester fermentation from Euglena gracilis defines a new family of enzymes involved in lipid synthesis.
Under anaerobiosis, Euglena gracilis mitochondria perform a malonyl-CoA independent synthesis of fatty acids leading to accumulation of wax esters, which serve as the sink for electrons stemming from glycolytic ATP synthesis and pyruvate oxidation. An important enzyme of this unusual pathway is trans-2-enoyl-CoA reductase (EC 1.3.1.44), which catalyzes reduction of enoyl-CoA to acyl-CoA. Trans-...
متن کاملFatty acid synthetases from Euglena gracilis. Separation of component activities of the ACP-dependent fatty acid synthetase and partial purification of the beta-ketoacyl-ACP synthetase.
The component enzymes of the chloroplast-associated, acyl carrier protein (ACP)-dependent, fatty acid synthetase (FAS-11) from Euglena gracilis have been independently examined by gel filtration chromatography of crude extracts from photoautotrophic cells. The acetyl coenzyme A:ACP transacylase, malonyl CoA:ACP transacylase, and /3-ketoacyl-ACP reductase activities were clearly resolved with a...
متن کاملPurification and partial characterization of an acyl carrier protein from Euglena gracilis.
Acyl carrier protein from Euglena gracilis strain Z was purified to electrophoretic homogeneity. The molecular weight was estimated to be 10,400. An amino acid composition was done and related to those of similar proteins from other sources. The activity in the CO*-malonyl coenzyme A exchange reaction with fatty acid synthetase enzymes (type II) from Eugkna was less than that of Escherichiu col...

Tuberculosis (TB) ranks second, next to AIDS making it most formidable disease if the present age. One of the crucial enzymes involved in cell wall synthesis of Mycobacterium tuberculosis, InhA (enoyl acyl carrier protein reductase) has been authenticated as an effective target for anti-mycobacterial drug development. In the current work, we have developed novel derivatives of 1,2,4-triazole-5-...
