Abstract:S-(4-Bromo-2,3-dioxobutyl)-CoA, a potential affinity label for enzymes possessing a receptor site(s) for short-chain acyl-CoA, was synthesized by condensing CoA and 1,4-dibromo-2,3-butanedione in acidified methanol. The new reagent was tested as an active site-directed irreversible inhibitor with four enzymes that accept a short-chain acyl-CoA as substrate. With citrate synthase (pig heart) and acetyl-CoA hydrolase (beef kidney) irreversible inhibition was observed, and the rate of inactivation obeyed first-order kinetics. Benzoyl-CoA, a reversible competitive inhibitor versus acetyl-CoA with both citrate synthase and acetyl-CoA hydrolase, protected the active site of both enzymes against the irreversible inhibitor. The new reagent was an exceptionally potent irreversible inhibitor of acetoacetyl-CoA thiolase (beef liver). Relatively low concentrations of the reagent (≥1 μm) completely inhibited the thiolase in less than 2 min. Preincubation of thiolase with acetoacetyl-CoA protected the enzyme against inhibition by S-(4-bromo-2,3-dioxobutyl)-CoA. In contrast, irreversible inhibition of l-3-hydroxyacyl-CoA dehydrogenase (pig heart) was not observed. Instead, the new reagent appeared to be a weak alternate substrate for this dehydrogenase. In all cases, the new reagent exhibited tight reversible binding at the active site since the measured Ki's (and Km) were in the range, 30 to 120 μm. It is anticipated that the new reagent will be suitable for investigating a number of acyl-CoA using enzymes by affinity labeling techniques.
