Reaction Mechanisms

    Delta3-delta2-enoyl CoA isomerase (enoyl-CoA isomerase) is a mitochondrial enzyme, in this case from human, catalyses the conversion of 3-cis-enoyl-CoA or 3-trans-enoyl-CoA into 2-trans-enoyl-CoA. This is involved in an auxiliary pathway of fatty acid degradation, and the product is subsequently metabolised further by other enzymes of the pathway.

    Enoyl-CoA isomerases use fatty acyl substrates with side-chains ranging from C6 to C16. The reaction used as example uses a C12 compund as substrate

    This reaction proceeds via an E1cb mechanism in which Glu136 deprotonates the C2 atom of the substrate, forming the conjugate base. The thioester oxygen atom holds the negative charge, and is stabilised by the presence of an oxyanion hole formed by the amide groups of Leu77 and Gly111. As the carbonyl is reformed, the C4 atom of the product is protonated by Glu136.

    Step Components

    assisted keto-enol tautomerisation, native state of enzyme regenerated, proton transfer

    Step 1.

    Glu136A deprotonates the substrate with concomitant tautomerisation to the enolate form, which is stabilised by an oxyanion hole composed of the main chain amides of Leu66A and Gly111A

    Step 2.

    The oxyanion intermediate tautomerises to give product with the help of a proton donated by Glu136
