Reaction Mechanism

    2-enoyl thioester reductases catalyse the reduction of trans-2-enoyl acyl carrier protein/coenzyme A to acyl carrier protein/coenzyme A. Yeast enzymes, such as Etr1p and Mrf1p, are responsible for the NADPH dependent reaction in mitochondrial fatty acid synthesis, and are indispensible for respiratory function in yeast. They belong to the medium chain dehydrogenases/reductases (MDR) superfamily and are structurally distinguishable from the prokaryotic 2-enoyl thioester which belong to the short chain dehydrogenases/reductases (SDR) superfamily. The Candida tropicalis genes ETR1 and ETR2 both encode enzymatically active 2-enoyl thioester reductases, which can form both homodimers and heterodimers.

    The proposed mechanism is based on analogy with the prokaryotic enoyl thioester reductases such as InhA. A hydride is transferred from NADPH to the beta position of the alpha-beta unsaturated carbonyl substrate (Michael addition) to give an enol(ate) intermediate. The hydroxy group of Tyr 79 acts as an electrophilic catalyst by forming a hydrogen bond to the substrate carbonyl to stabilise the intermediate and the transition state leading to it.

    Step 1.

    Tyr79 acts as an electrophilic catalyst by hydrogen bonding to the carbonyl group of alpha-beta unsaturated carbonyl substrate. A hydride is transferred from NADPH to the beta-position in a conjugate addition reaction, forming an intermediate enolate and NADP.

    Step 2.

    The enolate intermediate collapses and the substrate is protonated at the alpha-carbon, forming the reduced product.
