Enzyme activity has been implicated in the pathology of diabetes and cancer. Mutations in the human gene inactivate the enzyme and cause accumulation of fatty alcohols in Sjögren-Larsson syndrome, a neurological disorder resulting in physical and mental handicaps. Microsomal FALDH was expressed in E. coli and purified. Using an in vitro activity assay an optimum pH of approximately 9.5 and temperature of approximately 35 degrees C were determined. Medium- and long-chain fatty aldehydes were converted to the corresponding acids and kinetic parameters determined. The enzyme showed high activity with heptanal, tetradecanal, hexadecanal and octadecanal with lower activities for the other tested substrates. The enzyme was also able to convert some fatty alcohol substrates to their corresponding aldehydes and acids, at 25-30% the rate of aldehyde oxidation. A structural model of FALDH has been constructed, and catalytically important residues have been proposed to be involved in alcohol and aldehyde oxidation: Gln-120, Glu-207, Cys-241, Phe-333, Tyr-410 and His-411. These results place FALDH in a central role in the fatty alcohol/acid interconversion cycle, and provide a direct link between enzyme inactivation and disease pathology caused by accumulation of alcohols."xsd:string |
