Cytochrome fatty acid oxidation

Desaturation of alkyl groups. This novel reaction, which converts a saturated alkyl compound into a substituted alkene and is catalyzed by cytochromes P-450, has been described for the antiepileptic drug, valproic acid (VPA) (2-n-propyl-4-pentanoic acid) (Fig. 4.29). The mechanism proposed involves formation of a carbon-centered free radical, which may form either a hydroxy la ted product (alcohol) or dehydrogenate to the unsaturated compound. The cytochrome P-450-mediated metabolism yields 4-ene-VPA (2-n-propyl-4pentenoic acid), which is oxidized by the mitochondrial p-oxidation enzymes to 2,4-diene-VPA (2-n-propyl-2, 4-pentadienoic acid). This metabolite or its Co A ester irreversibly inhibits enzymes of the p-oxidation system, destroys cytochrome P-450, and may be involved in the hepatotoxicity of the drug. Further metabolism may occur to give 3-keto-4-ene-VPA (2-n-propyl-3-oxo-4-pentenoic acid), which inhibits the enzyme 3-ketoacyl-CoA thiolase, the terminal enzyme of the fatty acid oxidation system. [Pg.92]

Fig. 3.1. A, The respiratory chain. Q and c stand for ubiquinone and cytochrome c, respectively. Auxiliary enzymes that reduce ubiquinone include succinate dehydrogenase (Complex II), a-glycerophosphate dehydrogenase and the electron-transferring flavoprotein (ETF) of fatty acid oxidation. Auxiliary enzymes that reduce cytochrome c include sulphite oxidase. B, Thermodynamic view of the respiratory chain in the resting state (State 4). Approximate values are calculated according to the Nernst equation using oxidoreduction states from work by Muraoka and Slater, (NAD, Q, cytochromes c c, and a oxidation of succinate [6]), and Wilson and Erecinska (b-562 and b-566 [7]). The NAD, Q, cytochrome b-562 and oxygen/water couples are assumed to equilibrate protonically with the M phase at pH 8 [7,8]. E j (A ,/ApH) for NAD, Q, 6-562, and oxygen/water are taken as —320 mV ( — 30 mV/pH), 66 mV (- 60 mV/pH), 40 mV (- 60 mV/pH), and 800 mV (- 60 mV/pH) [7-10]. FMN and the FeS centres of Complex I (except N-2) are assumed to be in redox equilibrium with the NAD/NADH couple, FeS(N-2) with ubiquinone [11], and cytochrome c, and the Rieske FeS centre with cytochrome c [10]. The position of cytochrome a in the figure stems from its redox state [6] and its apparent effective E -, 285 mV in... Fig. 3.1. A, The respiratory chain.

These findings are consistent with impaired fatty-acid oxidation reduced mitochondrial entry of long-chain acylcarnitine esters due to inhibition of the transport protein (carnitine palmityl transferase 1) and failure of the respiratory chain at complex II. Another previously reported abnormality of the respiratory chain in propofol-infusion syndrome is a reduction in cytochrome C oxidase activity, with reduced complex IV activity and a reduced cytochrome oxidase ratio of 0.004. Propofol can also impair the mitochondrial electron transport system in isolated heart preparations. [Pg.2951]

This hepatomegaly is correlated to PPARa activation of acyl-CoA oxidase (AOX), the first enzyme of peroxisomal /3-oxidation of fatty acids and a gene with a PPRE in its promoter region14. In addition, hepatic mitochondrial /3-oxidation and microsomal w-oxidation of fatty acids are increased, as a direct result of PPARa activation of mRNA of specific enzymes associated with these pathways (carnitine palmitoyl transferase I and cytochrome P4504A, respectively). Activation of fatty acid oxidation by these three pathways would lead to enhanced fatty acid oxidation, given the appropriate substrate. PPARa has also been shown to enhance delivery of fatty acids to the oxidizing systems (Fig. 3). [Pg.482]

The oxidation reactions involved are catalyzed by a series of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) or flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD) dependent dehydrogenases in the highly conserved metabolic pathways of glycolysis, fatty acid oxidation and the tricarboxylic acid cycle, the latter two of which are localized to the mitochondrion, as is the bulk of coupled ATP synthesis. Reoxidation of the reduced cofactors (NADH and FADH2) requires molecular oxygen and is carried out by protein complexes integral to the inner mitochondrial membrane, collectively known as the respiratory, electron transport, or cytochrome, chain. Ubiquinone (UQ), and the small soluble protein cytochrome c, act as carriers of electrons between the complexes (Fig. 13.1.1). [Pg.433]

Cytochrome oxidase activity of the two-month old calf intestine was approximately twice that of fetal material indicating that the number of mitochondria as well as the capacity for fatty acid oxidation also increased. These observation are also similar to those observed in the case of the developing heart and emphasize the increasing postnatal importance on aerobic oxidations. [Pg.95]

FoMy Acid Oxidation by Cell-Free Preparations. An important development in the study of fatty acid oxidation was made by Munoz and Leloir, who found that homogenates of liver oxidize fatty acids when supplemented with adenine nucleotides, inorganic phosphate, Mg++, cytochrome c (a compoimd involved in electron transport), and a member of the tricarboxylic acid cycle. Others found that washed mitochondria contain all the necessary enzymes for oxidation of fatty acids to either CO2 or acetoacetate, provided the supplements of Munoz and Leloir were added. Such systems are extremely delicate, and for many years it was considered that maintenance of the intact structure of mitochondria was essential for preservation of fatty acid oxidation. [Pg.139]

He/minthosporium (15). The mode of action is considered to be inhibition of the enzyme NADPH-cytochrome C reductase, which results in the generation of free radicals and/or peroxide derivatives of flavin which oxidize adjacent unsaturated fatty acids to dismpt membrane integrity (16) (see Enzyme inhibitors). [Pg.105]

In the endoplasmic reticulum of eukaryotic cells, the oxidation of the terminal carbon of a normal fatty acid—a process termed ch-oxidation—can lead to the synthesis of small amounts of dicarboxylic acids (Figure 24.27). Cytochrome P-450, a monooxygenase enzyme that requires NADPH as a coenzyme and uses O, as a substrate, places a hydroxyl group at the terminal carbon. Subsequent oxidation to a carboxyl group produces a dicarboxylic acid. Either end can form an ester linkage to CoA and be subjected to /3-oxidation, producing a... [Pg.797]
