✦ Synopsis


A radiolabeled ATP assay was developed for measuring carboxylic acid:CoA ligase activity. The assay was designed to measure the formation of [gamma-33P]pyrophosphate from [gamma-33P]ATP in the course of the reaction. The assay was linear with protein concentration, and rates as low as 1 pmol/min were measurable. Rates determined with this assay were in agreement with rates determined with [14C]carboxylic acids. The assay was used to characterize the substrate specificity of the XL-I, XL-II, and XL-III ligases from bovine liver mitochondria. Forty carboxylic acids were tested for activity. The enzymes differed in their substrate specificities with XL-I and XL-II being the most similar and XL-III having the broadest specificity. This study has uncovered 19 new carboxylic acids that are substrates for these enzymes.

Neither salicylate nor ibuprofen was a substrate or inhibitor of the long-chain fatty acid:CoA ligase. In contrast, all three xenobiotic-metabolizing medium-chain fatty acid:CoA ligases (XL-I, had activity toward salicylate. The K , value for salicylate was similar for all three forms (2 to 3 pM), b

## Abstract The purification of xenobiotic/medium‐chain fatty acid:CoA ligases (XM‐ligases) from human liver mitochondria resulted in the isolation of two chromatographically separable forms (HXM‐A and HXM‐B). These two forms were purified to near homogeneity, cleaved with cyanogen bromide, the res
