-
site-directed mutagenesis, mutant shows 1650fold increased Km for L-carnitine, only slightly affected Km for acyl-CoA and kcat compared to the wild-type enzyme
S552A
-
site-directed mutagenesis, mutant shows 17fold increased Km for L-carnitine compared to the wild-type enzyme
S554X
-
site-directed mutagenesis, mutant shows 10fold decreased kcat compared to the wild-type enzyme
C323M
site-directed mutagenesis, crystal structure comparison with the wild-type enzyme, altered acyl-CoA substrate specificity compared to the wild-type enzyme, highly increased specificity for octanoyl-CoA
G553M
site-directed mutagenesis, highly reduced activity with altered acyl-CoA substrate specificity compared to the wild-type enzyme
M335A
site-directed mutagenesis, reduced activity with altered acyl-CoA substrate specificity compared to the wild-type enzyme
M335V
site-directed mutagenesis, crystal structure comparison with the wild-type enzyme, highly reduced activity with altered acyl-CoA substrate specificity compared to the wild-type enzyme
G553M
-
site-directed mutagenesis, the mutant enzyme shows altered substrate specificity: highly reduced activity with medium- and long-chain acyl-CoAs and increased activity with acetyl-CoA and butanoyl-CoA compared to the wild-type enzyme
additional information
-
the carnitine acetyl-transferase, specific for acetyl-CoA/short-chain acyl-CoAs, can be modified to an enzyme with elevated carnitine octanoyltransferase activity by mutation of Met564 to Gly, overview
