Demonstration of dimethylnonanoyl-CoA thioesterase activity in rat liver peroxisomes followed by purification and molecular cloning of the thioesterase involved.

Peroxisomes play an indispensable role in cellular fatty acid oxidation in higher eukaryotes by catalyzing the chain shortening of a distinct set of fatty acids and fatty acid derivatives including pristanic acid (2,6,10,14-tetramethylpentadecanoic acid).

Peroxisomes play an indispensable role in cellular fatty acid oxidation in higher eukaryotes by catalyzing the chain shortening of a distinct set of fatty acids and fatty acid derivatives including pristanic acid (2,6,10,14-tetramethylpentadecanoic acid). Earlier studies have shown that pristanic acid undergoes three cycles of beta-oxidation in peroxisomes to produce 4,8-dimethylnonanoyl-CoA (DMN-CoA) which is then transported to the mitochondria for full oxidation to CO(2) and H(2)O. In principle, this can be done via two different mechanisms in which DMN-CoA is either converted into the corresponding carnitine ester or hydrolyzed to 4,8-dimethylnonanoic acid plus CoASH. The latter pathway can only be operational if peroxisomes contain 4,8-dimethylnonanoyl-CoA thioesterase activity. In this paper we show that rat liver peroxisomes indeed contain 4,8-dimethylnonanoyl-CoA thioesterase activity. We have partially purified the enzyme involved from peroxisomes and identified the protein as the rat ortholog of a known human thioesterase using MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry in combination with the rat EST database. Heterologous expression studies in Escherichia coli established that the enzyme hydrolyzes not only DMN-CoA but also other branched-chain acyl-CoAs as well as straight-chain acyl-CoA-esters. Our data provide convincing evidence for the existence of the second pathway of acyl-CoA transport from peroxisomes to mitochondria by hydrolysis of the CoA-ester in peroxisomes followed by transport of the free acid to mitochondria, reactivation to its CoA-ester, and oxidation to CO(2) and H(2)O.

Characterization of an acyl-CoA thioesterase that functions as a major regulator of peroxisomal lipid metabolism.

Peroxisomes function in beta-oxidation of very long and long-chain fatty acids, dicarboxylic fatty acids, bile acid intermediates, prostaglandins, leukotrienes, thromboxanes, pristanic acid, and xenobiotic carboxylic acids. These lipids are mainly chain-shortened for excretion as the carboxylic acids or transported to mitochondria for further metabolism. Several of these carboxylic acids are slowly oxidized and may therefore sequester coenzyme A (CoASH). To prevent CoASH sequestration and to facilitate excretion of chain-shortened carboxylic acids, acyl-CoA thioesterases, which catalyze the hydrolysis of acyl-CoAs to the free acid and CoASH, may play important roles. Here we have cloned and characterized a peroxisomal acyl-CoA thioesterase from mouse, named PTE-2 (peroxisomal acyl-CoA thioesterase 2). PTE-2 is ubiquitously expressed and induced at mRNA level by treatment with the peroxisome proliferator WY-14,643 and fasting. Induction seen by these treatments was dependent on the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor alpha. Recombinant PTE-2 showed a broad chain length specificity with acyl-CoAs from short- and medium-, to long-chain acyl-CoAs, and other substrates including trihydroxycoprostanoyl-CoA, hydroxymethylglutaryl-CoA, and branched chain acyl-CoAs, all of which are present in peroxisomes. Highest activities were found with the CoA esters of primary bile acids choloyl-CoA and chenodeoxycholoyl-CoA as substrates. PTE-2 activity is inhibited by free CoASH, suggesting that intraperoxisomal free CoASH levels regulate the activity of this enzyme. The acyl-CoA specificity of recombinant PTE-2 closely resembles that of purified mouse liver peroxisomes, suggesting that PTE-2 is the major acyl-CoA thioesterase in peroxisomes. Addition of recombinant PTE-2 to incubations containing isolated mouse liver peroxisomes strongly inhibited bile acid-CoA:amino acid N-acyltransferase activity, suggesting that this thioesterase can interfere with CoASH-dependent pathways. We propose that PTE-2 functions as a key regulator of peroxisomal lipid metabolism. << Less
