The resonance Raman (RR) spectra of FMN, FAD, FAD in D2O, and 7,8-dimethyl-1, 10-ethyleneisoalloxazinium perchlorate have been obtained by employing KI as a collisional fluorescence-quenching agent. The spectra are very similar to those obtained recently by using the CARS technique to eliminate fluorescence. Spectra have also been obtained for several species in which flavin is known to fluoresce only weakly. We report RR spectra of protonated FMN, FMN semiquinone cation, the general fatty acyl-CoA dehydrogenase, and two "charge-transfer" complexes of fatty acyl-CoA dehydrogenase. Tentative assignment of several vibrational bands can be made on the basis of our flavin spectra. RR spectra of fatty acyl-CoA and its complexes are consistent with the previous hypothesis that visible spectral shifts observed during formation of acetoacetyl-CoA and crotonyl-CoA complexes of fatty acyl-CoA dehydrogenase result from charge-transfer interactions in which the ground state is essentially nonbonding as opposed to interactions in which complete electron transfer occurs to form FAD semiquinone. The only significant change in the RR spectrum of FAD on binding to enzyme occurs in the 1250-cm-1 region of the spectrum, a region associated with delta N--H of N-3. The position of this band in fatty acyl-CoA dehydrogenase and the other flavoproteins studied to date is discussed in terms of hydrogen bonding between flavin and protein.

Resonance Raman (RR) spectra of the complex of pig kidney medium-chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase with acetoacetyl-CoA and of the purple complex formed upon the addition of octanoyl-CoA to the dehydrogenase were obtained. RR spectra were also measured for the complexes prepared by using isotopically labeled compounds, i.e., [3-13C]-, [1,3-13C]-, and [2,4-13C2]acetoacetyl-CoA; [1-13C]octanoyl-CoA; the dehydrogenase reconstituted with [4a-13C]- and [4,10a-13C2]FAD. Both bands of oxidized flavin and acetoacetyl-CoA were resonance-enhanced in the 632.8 nm excited spectra of the acetoacetyl-CoA complex; this confirms that the broad long-wavelength absorption band is a charge-transfer absorption band between oxidized flavin and acetoacetyl-CoA. The 1,622 cm-1 band was assigned to the C(3)=O stretching mode coupling with the C(2)-H bending mode of the enolate form of acetoacetyl-CoA and the bands at 1,483 and 1,119 cm-1 were assigned to bands associated with the C(2)=C(1)-O- moiety. Both bands of fully reduced flavin and the substrate were resonance-enhanced in the 632.8 nm excited spectra of the purple complex. As the enzyme is already reduced, the substrate must be oxidized to octenoyl-CoA; the complex is a charge-transfer complex between the reduced enzyme and octenoyl-CoA. The low frequency value of the 1,577 cm-1 band, which is associated with the C(2)-C(1)=O moiety of the octenoyl-CoA, suggests that the enzyme-bound octenoyl-CoA has an appreciable contribution of C(2)=C(1)-O-.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Studies of the spectral (UV/vis and resonance Raman) and electrochemical properties of the FAD-containing enzyme glutaryl-CoA dehydrogenase (GCD) from Paracoccus denitrificans reveal that the properties of the oxidized enzyme (GCDox) appear to be invariant from those properties known for other acyl-CoA dehydrogenases such as mammalian general acyl-CoA dehydrogenase (GACD) and butyryl-CoA dehydrogenase (BCD) from Megasphaera elsdenii. However, when either free or complexed GCD is reduced, its spectral and electrochemical behavior differs from that of both GACD and BCD. Free GCD does not stabilize any form of one-electron-reduced GCD, but when GCD is complexed to its inhibitor, aceto-acetyl-CoA, the enzyme stabilizes 20% of the blue neutral radical form of FAD (FADH.) upon reduction. Like GACD, when crotonyl-CoA- (CCoA) bound GCD is reduced, the red anionic form of FAD radical (FAD.-) is stabilized, and excess reduction equivalents are necessary to effect full reduction of the complex. A comproportionation reaction is proposed between fully reduced crotonyl-CoA-bound GCD (GCD2e-CCoA) and GCDox-CCoA to partially explain the stabilization of GCD-bound FAD.- by CCoA. When GCD is reduced by its optimal substrate, glutaryl-CoA, a two-electron reduction is observed with concomitant formation of a long-wavelength charge-transfer band. It is proposed that the ETF specific for GCD abstracts one electron from this charge-transfer species and this is followed by the decarboxylation of the oxidized substrate. At pH 6.4, potential values measured for free GCD and GCD bound to acetoacetyl-CoA are -0.085 and -0.129 V, respectively. Experimental evidence is given for a positive shift in the reduction potential of GCD when the enzyme is bound to a 1:1 mixture of butyryl-CoA and CCoA. However, significant GCD hydratase activity is observed, preventing quantitation of the potential shift.

The stereochemistry of the four partial reactions catalyzed by chicken liver fatty acid synthase that lead to the synthesis of palmitic acid has been determined. The reduction of acetoacetyl-CoA to 3-hydroxybutyryl-CoA by NADPH proceeds with the transfer of the pro-4S hydrogen of NADPH to form D-3-hydroxybutyryl-CoA. During the subsequent dehydration of D-3-hydroxybutyryl-CoA the pro-2S hydrogen and the 3-hydroxyl group are removed in a syn elimination to form crotonyl-CoA. Crotonyl-CoA is reduced to butyryl-CoA by NADPH, with the transfer of the pro-4R hydrogen of NADPH to the pro-3R position in butyryl-CoA and the transfer of a solvent hydrogen to the pro-2S position. The occurrence of the syn dehydration, when combined with the results of a previous study [ Sedgwick , B., & Cornforth , J. W. (1977) Eur. J. Biochem. 75, 465-479], implies that the condensation of the enzyme-bound malonyl moiety with the enzyme-bound saturated fatty acid to form a 3-keto intermediate proceeds with inversion at C-2 of the malonyl. The stereochemistry of the hydration was derived from an analysis of the spin-spin coupling constant of 3-hydroxy[2-2H]butyric acid benzylamides obtained from 3-hydroxy[2-2H]butyryl-CoA synthesized by fatty acid synthase. The elucidation of the stereochemistry of the reduction of crotonyl-CoA relied on the previously established stereochemistry of pork liver acyl-CoA dehydrogenase. The source of all 28 prochiral hydrogens of the palmitic acid synthesized by chicken liver fatty acid synthase was inferred from the results of this work.

Pig kidney general acyl-CoA dehydrogenases forms the blue neutral radical on dithionite or photochemical reduction (Thorpe, C., Matthews, R. G., & Williams, C. H. (1979) Biochemistry 18, 331-337] in accord with its classification as a flavoprotein dehydrogenase. However, dithionite reduction of the enzyme in the presence of crotonyl coenzyme A (crotonyl-CoA) or octenoyl-CoA generates the red radical anion as the predominant species at pH 7.6. Crotonyl-CoA binds preferentially to the red radical form, depressing the apparent pK by at least 2.5 pH units to a value of 7.3. Butyryl-, octanoyl-, and palmitoyl-CoA induce very similar spectral changes to those induced by enoyl-CoA derivatives when added anaerobically to the blue semiquinone enzyme. In contrast, the competitive inhibitors acetoacetyl-CoA and heptadecyl-SCoA do not markedly perturb the spectrum of the neutral flavosemiquinone species. The stability of the enzyme radical complexes with either crotonyl- or octanoyl-CoA suggests that there is not effective intraflavin transfer of reducing equivalents between subunits. Perturbation of the spectrum of the one-electron-reduced enzyme by ligands may complicate interpretation of the reaction enzyme by ligands may complicate interpretation of the reaction between substrate complexes of the general acyl-CoA dehydrogenase and electron-transferring flavoprotein.

It has previously been shown that the "partial" reaction between fatty acyl-CoA dehydrogenase and acyl-CoA substrate is pH-dependent (larger rate constants at basic pH) and shows a biphasic rate profile indicative of formation of an initial charge transfer complex between the C-2 anion of substrate and enzyme. The present investigation indicates that the complete reaction between acyl-CoA and electron transfer flavoprotein shows a pH profile dependent upon ionization of a single basic group with pKa = 7.7. these facts are consistent with electron transfer which occurs through an obligatory charge transfer complex between the C-2 anion of substrate and oxidized FAD at the enzyme active site. The anion of acetoacetyl-CoA forms a charge transfer complex with enzyme which serves as a model for the putative catalytically active complex mentioned above. Resonance Raman investigation of this acetoacetyl-CoA-enzyme complex indicates that the 1586 cm-1 band is coupled strongly to the charge transfer electronic transition. Since this vibrational band is associated with vC=N at N-5, C-4a of the flavin ring, we suggest that electron transfer takes place at this site.

The properties of the general acyl coenzyme A dehydrogenase from pig liver and the stable reduced dehydrogenase . product and oxidized dehydrogenase . acetoacetyl-CoA complexes of the dehydrogenase were investigated. The enzyme has a molecular weight of 178,000 to 183,000 determined by gel filtration chromatography and by gel electrophoresis at different acrylamide concentrations. The subunit molecular weight is 45,000 based on acrylamide gel electrophoresis in the presence of dodecyl sulfate which agrees with the minimum molecular weight calculated from the flavin:protein ratio and the amino acid analysis. The subunits are identical, or very similar, as judged by quantitative NH2-terminal analysis and mapping of tryptic peptides. Immunochemical analyses by the complement fixation technique show that the structure of the oxidized enzyme is different from the structure of enzyme . acyl-CoA complexes whether the flavin in these complexes is in the oxidized or reduced state. The amino acid analysis, isoelectric point, and a procedure for crystallizing the dehydrogenase are also reported.

The crystal structure of butyryl-CoA dehydrogenase (BCAD) from Megasphaera elsdenii complexed with acetoacetyl-CoA has been solved at 2.5 A resolution. The enzyme crystallizes in the P422 space group with cell dimensions a = b = 107.76 A and c = 153.67 A. BCAD is a bacterial analog of short chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase from mammalian mitochondria. Mammalian acyl-CoA dehydrogenases are flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD)-containing enzymes that catalyze the first step in the beta-oxidation of fatty acids. Although specific for substrate chain lengths, they exhibit high sequence homology. The structure of BCAD was solved by the molecular replacement method using the atomic coordinates of pig liver medium chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase (MCAD). The structure was refined to an R-factor of 19.3%. The overall polypeptide fold of BCAD is similar to that of MCAD. E367 in BCAD is at the same position and in a similar conformation as the catalytic base in MCAD, E376. The main enzymatic differences between BCAD and MCAD are their substrate specificities and the significant oxygen reactivity exhibited by BCAD but not by MCAD. The substrate binding cavity of BCAD is relatively shallow compared to that of MCAD, as consequences of both a single amino acid insertion and differences in the side chains of the helices that make the binding site. The si-face of the FAD in BCAD is more exposed to solvent than that in MCAD. Therefore solvation can stabilize the superoxide anion and considerably increase the rate of oxidation of reduced flavin in the bacterial enzyme.

We have shown previously that acetoacetyl-CoA bound to medium-chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase from pig kidney is transformed into an enolate form, O = C(3)-C(2)H = C(1)-O-, and that the interaction between the C(4a) = N(5) moiety of flavin and the O = C(3)-C(2)H = C(1)-O- moiety of acetoacetyl-CoA is important for the charge-transfer interaction [Nishina, Y. et al. (1992) J. Biochem. 111, 699-706]. In this study, we examined four kinds of acyl-CoA dehydrogenases [short-chain acyl-CoA (SCAD), medium-chain acyl-CoA (MCAD), long-chain acyl-CoA (LCAD), and isovaleryl-CoA (IVD) dehydrogenases] from bovine liver. The Raman spectra of non-labeled and isotopically labeled acetoacetyl-CoA in keto-form revealed that the 1,716-cm-1 and 1,650-cm-1 bands were derived from the C(3) = O and the C(1) = O stretching mode, respectively. In the charge-transfer complexes of acetoacetyl-CoA with the four kinds of dehydrogenases, the resonance Raman (RR) bands corresponding to the C(3) = O and the C(1) = O of acetoacetyl-CoA were observed at around 1,643-1,622 and 1,506-1,476 cm-1, respectively, indicating that acetoacetyl-CoA was transformed into the enolate form as the result of the complexation with the enzymes. Further, in RR spectra with excitation at 632.8 nm, within the charge-transfer band of the complexes of acetoacetyl-CoA with the four acyl-CoA dehydrogenases, both bands associated with the C(4a) = N(5) moiety of oxidized flavin and the O = C(3)-C(2)H = C(1)-O- moiety of acetoacetyl-CoA were enhanced, but the benzene portion of oxidized flavin was not. These results indicate that the substrate activating mechanism is common to all four kinds of dehydrogenases, i.e., the interaction between the C(1) = O of acetoacetyl-CoA and the positively polarized atoms of the enzymes located in close proximity to the oxygen atom of C(1) = O is important, and the C(4a) = N(5) moiety of flavin participates in the interaction. Some kinds of 3-ketoacyl-CoAs were tested instead of acetoacetyl-CoA and essentially similar results were obtained. The positions of the bands derived from the C(1)-O- moiety of 3-ketoacyl-CoAs were different by ca. 30 cm-1 in two groups, i.e., ca. 1,475 cm-1 for SCAD and MCAD and ca. 1,505 cm-1 for LCAD and IVD, that is, RR spectra can classify the four dehydrogenases into two groups.

The change-transfer interaction in the complex of pig kidney medium-chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase (MCAD) with acetoacetyl-CoA was investigated by 13C-NMR spectroscopy and molecular orbital treatment. The acyl carbons of acetoacetyl-CoA were separately 13C-labeled and 13C-NMR spectra of the complexes of MCAD with the 13C-labeled acetoacetyl-CoA were measured. Each 13C-carbon atom was observed as a distinct peak and easily distinguished from the protein background. The chemical shift values for free acetoacetyl-CoA were 198.5, 59.9, 208.8, and 32.8 ppm for C(1), C(2), C(3), and C(4), respectively, which shifted to 181.3, 103.4, 192.3, and 29.9 ppm, respectively, when acetoacetyl-CoA was complexed with MCAD. While C(4) underwent a small upfield shift, the other carbons complexed with MCAD. While C(4) underwent a small upfield shift, the other carbons experienced significant shifts; both the C(1) and C(3) carbonyl carbons shifted upfield by about 17 ppm, and the C(2) carbon was observed as a very broad peak at a position shifted downfield by more than 40 ppm. These results were compared with 13C-NMR spectra of the keto-, enol-, and enolate forms of ethyl acetoacetate labeled with 13C at the acyl carbons, and interpreted with reference to the charge-transfer model based on the optimum overlap between the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO) of flavin and the highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) of the enolate state of the acetoacetyl moiety of acetoacetyl-CoA. The C(2) carbon of acetoacetyl-CoA takes on the sp2 configuration in the bound form, indicating that one of the protons at C(2) of acetoacetyl-CoA is abstracted when bound to MCAD. C(1) = O is substantially polarized in the bound form of acetoacetyl-CoA, implying the presence of a machinery that polarizes this carbonyl group at the binding site, which thereby lowers the pKa value of the alpha-proton at C(2). This machinery is of fundamental importance in the initial step of MCAD catalysis.
