ENOYL-COA HYDRATASE COMPLEXED WITH OCTANOYL-COA

Overview

The structure of the hexameric rat mitochondrial enoyl-Coenzyme A (CoA), hydratase, co-crystallised with the inhibitor octanoyl-CoA, has been, refined at a resolution of 2.4 A. Enoyl-CoA hydratase catalyses the, hydration of 2,3-unsaturated enoyl-CoA thioesters. In the crystal, structure only four of the six active sites of the hexamer in the, asymmetric unit are occupied with a ligand molecule, showing an unliganded, and a liganded active site within the same crystal form. While the protein, assembly and fold is identical to the previously solved acetoacetyl-CoA, complex, differences are observed close to the fatty acid binding pocket, due to the different nature of the ligands. The fatty acid tail of, octanoyl-CoA is bound in an extended conformation. This is possible, because a high ... [(full description)]
