Involvement of hysteretic effects in the inhibition of carnitine palmitoyltransferase by malonyl-CoA.

ABSTRACT: Carnitine palmitoyltransferase in its normal mitochondrial environment behaves as a hysteretic enzyme, exhibiting slow changes in reaction rate after the addition of oleoyl-CoA or malonyl-CoA. Reaction rates become constant after a short time, but the sensitivity of the enzyme from fed rats to the inhibition by malonyl-CoA remains much greater than that of starved rats.

Hysteretic behaviour of carnitine palmitoyltransferase. The effect of preincubation with malonyl-CoA.

Project description:Continuous assays of carnitine palmitoyltransferase were used to study the hysteretic behaviour of the enzyme. When reactions were started by adding mitochondria to complete reaction mixtures, there was a lag in the assay even in the absence of malonyl-CoA. When mitochondria were preincubated with malonyl-CoA in the absence of palmitoyl-CoA, there was a greater lag period in the assay of carnitine palmitoyltransferase, but this lag was less prominent at 37 degrees C than at 30 degrees C. Preincubation of mitochondria with malonyl-CoA did not change the sensitivity of the enzyme to inhibition by malonyl-CoA.

Intertissue differences in the hysteretic behaviour of carnitine palmitoyltransferase in the presence of malonyl-CoA.

Project description:In the presence of malonyl-CoA, the overt form of carnitine palmitoyltransferase (CPT1) in mitochondria from rat liver, kidney cortex, heart, skeletal muscle and brown adipose tissue shows non-linear time courses, suggesting hysteretic behaviour. The pattern of this hysteresis is similar in heart, skeletal muscle and brown adipose tissue, but the hysteretic behaviour of the enzyme in these three tissues differs markedly from that seen in liver and kidney.

Effect of pH on malonyl-CoA inhibition of carnitine palmitoyltransferase I.

Project description:Malonyl-CoA inhibition of carnitine palmitoyltransferase I was found to be very pH-dependent. Malonyl-CoA concentrations causing 50% inhibition (I50) at pH 6.0, 6.5, 7.0, 7.5 and 8.0 were 0.04, 1, 9, 40 and 200 microM respectively. It is suggested that a lowering of intracellular pH, such as might occur in ketoacidosis, may attenuate hepatic fatty acid oxidation by increasing malonyl-CoA sensitivity of carnitine palmitoyltransferase I.

Interacting effects of L-carnitine and malonyl-CoA on rat liver carnitine palmitoyltransferase.

Project description:Malonyl-CoA significantly increased the Km for L-carnitine of overt carnitine palmitoyltransferase in liver mitochondria from fed rats. This effect was observed when the molar palmitoyl-CoA/albumin concentration ratio was low (0.125-1.0), but not when it was higher (2.0). In the absence of malonyl-CoA, the Km for L-carnitine increased with increasing palmitoyl-CoA/albumin ratios. Malonyl-CoA did not increase the Km for L-carnitine in liver mitochondria from 24h-starved rats or in heart mitochondria from fed animals. The Km for L-carnitine of the latent form of carnitine palmitoyltransferase was 3-4 times that for the overt form of the enzyme. At low ratios of palmitoyl-CoA/albumin (0.5), the concentration of malonyl-CoA causing a 50% inhibition of overt carnitine palmitoyltransferase activity was decreased by 30% when assays with liver mitochondria from fed rats were performed at 100 microM-instead of 400 microM-carnitine. Such a decrease was not observed with liver mitochondria from starved animals. L-Carnitine displaced [14C]malonyl-CoA from liver mitochondrial binding sites. D-Carnitine was without effect. L-Carnitine did not displace [14C]malonyl-CoA from heart mitochondria. It is concluded that, under appropriate conditions, malonyl-CoA may decrease the effectiveness of L-carnitine as a substrate for the enzyme and that L-carnitine may decrease the effectiveness of malonyl-CoA to regulate the enzyme.

Malonyl-CoA inhibition of peroxisomal carnitine octanoyltransferase.

Project description:Although the malonyl-CoA sensitivity of peroxisomal carnitine octanoyltransferase (COT) is reportedly lost on solubilization, we show that malonyl-CoA does inhibit the purified enzyme. Assay conditions such as buffer composition, pH, acyl-CoA substrate and the presence or absence of BSA can affect the observed inhibition. When assayed in the absence of BSA, COT shows simple competitive inhibition by malonyl-CoA. The Ki value for inhibition of purified COT is high (106 microM) compared with physiological concentrations (1-6 microM) and other short-chain acyl-CoA esters inhibit COT to the same degree. However, when COT is assayed in intact peroxisomes, the Ki for malonyl-CoA is almost 20-fold lower than found with the purified enzyme, whereas inhibition by other short-chain acyl-CoA esters does not change significantly. Several features of the inhibition of peroxisomal COT, including the specificity of malonyl-CoA over other short-chain acyl-CoA esters, resemble those of carnitine palmitoyltransferase (CPT)-I, suggesting that the regulation of COT and CPT-I in parallel may be necessary for the control of cellular fatty acid metabolism.

Different sites of inhibition of carnitine palmitoyltransferase by malonyl-CoA, and by acetyl-CoA and CoA, in human skeletal muscle.

Project description:The inhibition of carnitine palmitoyltransferase (CPT, EC 2.3.1.21) by malonyl-CoA, acetyl-CoA and free CoA was studied in sonicated skeletal-muscle homogenates from normal human subjects and from five patients with a mutant CPT [Zierz & Engel (1985) Eur. J. Biochem. 149, 207-214]. (1) Malonyl-CoA, acetyl-CoA and CoA were competitive inhibitors of CPT with palmitoyl-CoA. (2) Acetyl-CoA and CoA inhibited normal and mutant CPT to the same degree, whereas malonyl-CoA inhibited mutant CPT more than normal CPT. (3) Triton X-100 abolished the inhibition of normal CPT by malonyl-CoA, but not by acetyl-CoA or CoA. Triton X-100 by itself caused loss of activity of the mutant CPT. (4) In the concentration range 0.1-0.4 mM, the inhibitory effects of any two of the three inhibitors were synergistic. (5) The inhibitory constants (Ki) for acetyl-CoA and CoA were close to 45 microM. The Ki for malonyl-CoA was 200-fold lower, or 0.22 microM. Addition of 40 microM-acetyl-CoA or CoA resulted in a 3-fold increase in the Ki for acetyl-CoA. Addition of 20 microM-CoA resulted in a 3-fold increase in the Ki for acetyl-CoA. (6) The findings indicate that acetyl-CoA and CoA can inhibit CPT at the catalytic site or a nearby site which is different from that at which malonyl-CoA inhibits CPT. (7) The fact that small changes in the concentration of acetyl-CoA and CoA can antagonize the inhibitory effect of malonyl-CoA suggests that these compounds could modulate the inhibition of CPT by malonyl-CoA.

Carnitine palmitoyltransferase in human erythrocyte membrane. Properties and malonyl-CoA sensitivity.

Project description:Carnitine palmitoyltransferase located in the erythrocyte plasma membrane is sensitive to inhibition by malonyl-CoA and 2-bromopalmitoyl-CoA plus carnitine. Although this inhibition and other properties suggest similarities to the intracellular enzymes in other tissues, no cross-reaction was observed with antisera to the peroxisomal or to the mitochondrial inner-membrane enzyme. The activity was solubilized by and was stable in Triton X-100, which destroys the enzymes found in microsomes and in the mitochondrial outer membrane. The substrate specificity is broader than for the intracellular enzymes, the activities with stearoyl-CoA (114%) and arachidonoyl-CoA (97%) being equal to that with palmitoyl-CoA, and the activities with linoleoyl-CoA (44%) and erucoyl-CoA (46%) about half that with palmitoyl-CoA. The function of this carnitine palmitoyltransferase is probably to buffer the acyl-CoA present in the erythrocyte for turnover of the fatty acyl groups of the membrane lipids.

Involvement of microsomal vesicles in part of the sensitivity of carnitine palmitoyltransferase I to malonyl-CoA inhibition in mitochondrial fractions of rat liver.

Project description:Liver mitochondrial fractions as normally isolated contain only 10-20% of total mitochondria and may not be representative of the whole mitochondrial population. This study was designed to evaluate the dependence of the sensitivity of carnitine palmitoyl-transferase I (CPT I) to malonyl-CoA inhibition in mitochondrial fractions that are not normally studied. Four fractions prepared from rat liver were found to be contaminated to different extents by microsome vesicles, on the basis of marker-enzyme activities and micrographic data. Purification of mitochondrial fractions on a Percoll gradient decreased to some extent the microsomal contamination, which was due in part to the existence of close bonds between microsomes and the outer membranes of mitochondria. A greater degree of contamination of mitochondrial fractions by microsomes was correlated with a greater sensitivity of CPT I to malonyl-CoA inhibition. Attempts were made to enhance the sensitivity of CPT I to malonyl-CoA with the use of microsomes. Measurements performed by adding mitochondria and microsomes in the same CPT I assay failed to demonstrate any significant enhancement of malonyl-CoA inhibition. However, addition of ATP to a mixture of mitochondria and microsomes was shown to trigger the binding of both particles, as assessed by enzymic and micrographic data, and to increase the sensitivity of CPT I to malonyl-CoA inhibition. These results demonstrated that the binding of microsomes to mitochondria, unlike the simple mixing of both particles, was capable of altering the sensitivity of CPT I to malonyl-CoA. The data also suggest that this process could be of physiological importance, owing to the frequency of contiguous zones between mitochondria and endoplasmic reticulum observed in sections of intact liver cells.
