General annotation (Comments)

Function

Catalyzes the formation of an hydroxyacyl-CoA by addition of water on enoyl-CoA. Also exhibits 3-hydroxyacyl-CoA epimerase and 3-hydroxyacyl-CoA dehydrogenase activities. Involved in the aerobic and anaerobic degradation of long-chain fatty acids. Ref.9

Catalytic activity

(S)-3-hydroxyacyl-CoA + NAD+ = 3-oxoacyl-CoA + NADH. HAMAP MF_01621

(3S)-3-hydroxyacyl-CoA = trans-2(or 3)-enoyl-CoA + H2O. HAMAP MF_01621

(S)-3-hydroxybutanoyl-CoA = (R)-3-hydroxybutanoyl-CoA. HAMAP MF_01621

(3Z)-dodec-3-enoyl-CoA = (2E)-dodec-2-enoyl-CoA. HAMAP MF_01621

Pathway

Lipid metabolism; fatty acid beta-oxidation. Ref.9

Subunit structure

Heterotetramer of two alpha chains (fadB) and two beta chains (fadA).

Induction

Repressed by fadR in the absence of LCFAs (fatty acids of, at least, 12 carbon atoms). When LCFAs are present in the medium, they are converted to long-chain acyl-CoAs which bind to fadR resulting in its release from the DNA and thus derepression of the transcription. HAMAP MF_01621

Sequence similarities

In the N-terminal section; belongs to the enoyl-CoA hydratase/isomerase family.

In the C-terminal section; belongs to the 3-hydroxyacyl-CoA dehydrogenase family.

Biophysicochemical properties

Kinetic parameters:

KM=53 µM for crotonyl-CoA (for enoyl-CoA hydratase activity) Ref.8

KM=5.8 µM for 3-cis-tetradecenoyl-CoA (for Delta(3)-cis-Delta(2)-trans-enoyl-CoA isomerase activity)

KM=69 µM for acetoacetyl-CoA (for 3-hydroxyacyl-CoA dehydrogenase activity)

KM=2.0 µM for NADH (for 3-hydroxyacyl-CoA dehydrogenase activity)
