Fatty acid and polyketide biosynthetic enzymes use acyl- and malonyl-thioesters for catalysis. This study focuses on FabH, which initiates fatty acid biosynthesis in bacteria and plants. By synthesizing analogues of acetyl/ malonyl-CoA, this study evaluates their stability and behavior as substrates or inhibitors for FabH, providing insight into the enzyme/substrate interactions.
Fatty acid and polyketide biosynthetic enzymes exploit the reactivity of acyl-and malonyl-thioesters for catalysis. A prime example is FabH, which initiates fatty acid biosynthesis in many bacteria and plants. FabH performs an acyltransferase reaction with acetyl-CoA to generate an acetyl-S-FabH acyl-enzyme intermediate and subsequent decarboxylative Claisen-condensation with a malonyl-thioester carried by an acyl carrier protein (ACP). We envision that crystal structures of FabH with substrate analogues can provide insight into the conformational changes and enzyme/substrate interactions underpinning the distinct reactions. Here, we synthesize acetyl/ malonyl-CoA analogues with esters or amides in place of the thioester and characterize their stability and behavior as Escherichia coli FabH substrates or inhibitors to inform structural studies. We also characterize the analogues with mutant FabH C112Q that mimics the acyl-enzyme intermediate allowing dissection of the decarboxylation reaction. The acetyl-and malonyl-oxa(dethia)CoA analogues undergo extremely slow hydrolysis in the presence of FabH or the C112Q mutant. Decarboxylation of malonyl-oxa(dethia)CoA by FabH or C112Q mutant was not detected. The amide analogues were completely stable to enzyme activity. In enzyme assays with acetyl-CoA and malonyl-CoA (rather than malonyl-ACP) as substrates, acetyl-oxa(dethia)CoA is surprisingly slightly activating, while acetyl-aza(dethia)CoA is a moderate inhibitor. The malonyl-oxa/aza(dethia)CoAs are inhibitors with Ki's near the Km of malonyl-CoA. For comparison, we determine the FabH catalyzed decomposition rates for acetyl/malonyl-CoA, revealing some fundamental catalytic traits of FabH, including hysteresis for malonyl-CoA decarboxylation. The stability and inhibitory properties of the substrate analogues make them promising for structure- function studies to reveal fatty acid and polyketide enzyme/substrate interactions.
