Abstract
ω-Phenyl-alkenoic acids are abundant in coffee, fruits, and vegetables. Along with ω-phenyl-alkanoic acids, they are produced from numerous dietary (poly)phenols and aromatic amino acids in vivo. This review addresses how phenyl-ring substitution and flux modulates their gut microbiota and endogenous β-oxidation. 3',5'-Dihydroxy-derivatives (from alkyl-resorcinols, flavanols, proanthocyanidins), and 4'-hydroxy-phenolic acids (from tyrosine, p-coumaric acid, naringenin) are β-oxidation substrates yielding benzoic acids. In contrast, 3',4',5'-tri-substituted-derivatives, 3',4'-dihydroxy-derivatives and 3'-methoxy-4'-hydroxy-derivatives (from coffee, tea, cereals, many fruits and vegetables) are poor β-oxidation substrates with metabolism diverted via gut microbiota dehydroxylation, phenylvalerolactone formation and phase-2 conjugation, possibly a strategy to conserve limited pools of coenzyme A. 4'-Methoxy-derivatives (citrus fruits) or 3',4'-dimethoxy-derivatives (coffee) are susceptible to hepatic "reverse" hydrogenation suggesting incompatibility with enoyl-CoA-hydratase. Gut microbiota-produced 3'-hydroxy-4'-methoxy-derivatives (citrus fruits) and 3'-hydroxy-derivatives (numerous (poly)phenols) are excreted as the phenyl-hydracrylic acid β-oxidation intermediate suggesting incompatibility with hydroxy-acyl-CoA dehydrogenase, albeit with considerable inter-individual variation. Further investigation is required to explain inter-individual variation, factors determining the amino acid to which C6-C3 and C6-C1 metabolites are conjugated, the precise role(s) of l-carnitine, whether glycine might be limiting, and whether phenolic acid-modulation of β-oxidation explains how phenolic acids affect key metabolic conditions, such as fatty liver, carbohydrate metabolism and insulin resistance.

Abstract
A fatty acyl coenzyme A synthetase (FadD) from Pseudomonas putida CA-3 is capable of activating a wide range of phenylalkanoic and alkanoic acids. It exhibits the highest rates of reaction and catalytic efficiency with long-chain aromatic and aliphatic substrates. FadD exhibits higher k(cat) and K(m) values for aromatic substrates than for the aliphatic equivalents (e.g., 15-phenylpentadecanoic acid versus pentadecanoic acid). FadD is inhibited noncompetitively by both acrylic acid and 2-bromooctanoic acid. The deletion of the fadD gene from P. putida CA-3 resulted in no detectable growth or polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA) accumulation with 10-phenyldecanoic acid, decanoic acid, and longer-chain substrates. The results suggest that FadD is solely responsible for the activation of long-chain phenylalkanoic and alkanoic acids. While the CA-3DeltafadD mutant could grow on medium-chain substrates, a decrease in growth yield and PHA accumulation was observed. The PHA accumulated by CA-3DeltafadD contained a greater proportion of short-chain monomers than did wild-type PHA. Growth of CA-3DeltafadD was unaffected, but PHA accumulation decreased modestly with shorter-chain substrates. The complemented mutant regained 70% to 90% of the growth and PHA-accumulating ability of the wild-type strain depending on the substrate. The expression of an extra copy of fadD in P. putida CA-3 resulted in increased levels of PHA accumulation (up to 1.6-fold) and an increase in the incorporation of longer-monomer units into the PHA polymer.

Abstract
Despite being the first conjugation reaction demonstrated in humans, amino acid conjugation as a route of metabolism of xenobiotic carboxylic acids is not well characterised. This is principally due to the small number and limited structural diversity of xenobiotic substrates for amino acid conjugation. Unlike CYP and uridine 5'-diphosphate glucuronosyltransferase, which are localised in the endoplasmic reticulum, the enzymes of amino acid conjugation reside in mitochondria. Unique among drug metabolism pathways, amino acid conjugation involves initial formation of a xenobiotic acyl-CoA thioester that is then conjugated principally with glycine in humans. However, formation of the xenobiotic acyl-CoA thioester does not always infer subsequent amino acid conjugation. Evidence is presented that in the absence of glycine conjugation substrates that form acyl-CoA thioesters perturb mitochondrial function. This review discusses literature on the enzymes involved and the concept that xenobiotic substrate selectivity provides a barrier to protect the metabolic integrity of the mitochondria.

Abstract
Medium chain acyl-CoA synthetases catalyze the first reaction of amino acid conjugation of many xenobiotic carboxylic acids and fatty acid metabolism. This paper reports studies on purification, characterization, and the partial amino acid sequence of mouse liver enzyme. The medium chain acyl-CoA synthetase was isolated from mouse liver mitochondria. The purified enzyme catalyzes this reaction not only for straight medium chain fatty acids but also for aromatic and arylacetic acids. Maximal activity was found with hexanoic acid. High activities were obtained with benzoic acid having methyl, pentyl, and methoxy groups in the para- or meta-positions of the benzene ring. However, the enzyme was less active with valproic acid and ketoprofen. Salicylic acid exhibited no activity. The medium chain acyl-CoA synthetases from mouse and bovine liver mitochondria were subjected to in-gel tryptic digestion, followed by LC-MS/MS sequence analysis. The amino acid sequence of each tryptic peptide of mouse liver mitochondrial medium chain acyl-CoA synthetase differed from that from bovine liver mitochondria only in one or two amino acids. LC-MS/MS analysis provided the information about these differences in amino acid sequences. In addition, we compared the properties of this protein with the homologues from rat and bovine.

Abstract
Enzymes of the medium-chain acyl-CoA synthetase (MACS) family catalyze the ligation of medium chain fatty acids with CoA to produce medium-chain-acyl-CoA. At least four members of the MACS gene family are clustered on human chromosome 16p12. Association studies in the Japanese Suita cohort of MACS polymorphisms and various phenotypes revealed the contribution of the Leu513Ser polymorphism in MACS2 to multiple risk factors of the metabolic syndrome. Here, we investigated the association between this polymorphism and different risk factors in the Caucasian Metabolic Intervention Cohort Kiel. Seven hundred and sixteen male subjects aged 45-65 years were recruited for a standard oral glucose tolerance test and the postprandial assessment of metabolic parameters after an oral metabolic tolerance test (oMTT; 1017 kcal, 51.6% fat, 29.6% carbohydrates, 11.9% protein). The MACS2 Leu513Ser polymorphism was determined by TaqMan-Assay in 705 subjects. Postprandial triglyceride levels following oMTT [area under the curve (AUC)] were significantly higher in subjects carrying the Ser allele compared to subjects homozygous for the Leu allele (1690 +/- 100 mg x h/dL versus 1514 +/- 39 mg x h/dL, p = 0.04). Significant differences between genotype groups were also found for fasting (108 +/- 1.9 mg/dL versus 104 +/- 0.66 mg/dL, p = 0.04) and postprandial (AUC 535 +/- 11 versus 512 +/- 4.0, p = 0.02) glucose levels as well as for high-density-lipoprotein, body mass index, waist circumference, systolic and diastolic blood pressure. Carriers of the Ser allele also show an increased risk of impaired glucose metabolism (OR: 1.48, 95% confidence interval: 0.98-2.27, p = 0.07), adiposity (1.8, 1.16-2.81, p = 0.01) and hypertension (1.5, 0.99-2.17, p = 0.06). In conclusion, our results suggest an involvement of the MACS2 Leu513Ser polymorphism in the development of the metabolic syndrome in Caucasian population. Additionally, the higher triglyceride and glucose levels after an oMTT support a possible functional impact of the polymorphism in vivo.

Abstract
This paper reviews the results of the intense experimental and theoretical studies on the influence of selected metals on the electronic system of biologically important molecules such as benzoic, 2-hydroxybenzoic and 3-pyridine carboxylic acids as well as 5-carboxyuracil. The research involved following techniques: infrared (FT-IR), Raman (FT-Raman), FT-IR Ar matrix, electronic absorption spectroscopy (UV/visible), nuclear magnetic resonance ((1)H, (13)C, (15)N, (17)O NMR), X-ray and quantum mechanical calculations. The influence of metals on the electronic system was examined through comparison of the changes in so called "logical series". The exemplary series are: Li-->Na-->K-->Rb-->Cs, Na(I)-->Ca(II)-->La(III)-->Th(IV); Na(I)-->Mg(II)-->Al(III) or long series of La(III) and fourteen lanthanides La(III)-->Ce(III)-->Lu(III). The correlation between the perturbation of the electronic system of ligands and the position of metals in the periodic table was found. The influence of the carboxylic anion structure and the effect of hydration on the perturbation of the electronic system of molecule were also discussed. The partial explanation in what way metals disturb and stabilize electronic system of studied ligands was done. It is necessary to carry out the physico-chemical studies of benzoates, salicylates, 3-pyridine carboxylates and isoorotates in order to understand the nature of the interactions of these compounds with their biological targets (e.g., receptors in the cell or important cell components). The results of this study make possible to predict some properties of a molecule, such as its reactivity, durability of complex compounds, and kinship to enzymes.

Abstract
The relative importance of the liver and kidney for glycine conjugation of ortho-substituted benzoic acids was investigated. Glycine conjugation of ortho-substituted benzoic acids was investigated in mouse liver and kidney mitochondria. The extent of glycine conjugation of benzoic acids with the halogen group decreased in the order F > Cl > Br > I. The conjugation of salicylic acid with glycine took place in only the kidney. 2-Methoxybenzoic acid exhibited no activity in the liver and kidney. The difference in glycine conjugation of ortho-substituted benzoic acids was observed between liver and kidney. The kidney was more active in glycine conjugation of ortho-substituted acids than the liver. In addition, the relationship between glycine conjugation and the chemical structure of ortho-substituted acids was examined in the liver and kidney. The size of the substituent had a far greater influence over glycine conjugation in the liver and kidney. Glycine conjugation was also dependent on the substituent electronegativity. It may be important that the substrates undergoing glycine conjugation contain a flat region coplanar to the carboxylate group.

Abstract
1. 2,4-Dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) and 2,4,5-trichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4,5-T) (0.1-0.5 mmol/kg i.p.) delayed the disappearance of injected benzoate from blood and diminished the urinary excretion of the formed benzoylglycine, but elevated the blood levels of benzoylglycine in rat, suggesting that these herbicides interfere with both the formation and the renal transport of benzoylglycine. 2. Inhibition of the renal excretion of benzoylglycine by 2,4-D or 2,4,5-T (0.5 mmol/kg i.p.) was directly demonstrated in rat injected with benzoylglycine. 3. Inhibition of benzoylglycine formation from benzoic acid by 2,4-D or 2,4,5-T (0.5 mmol/kg i.p.) was directly demonstrated in renal pedicles-ligated rats injected with benzoate. 4. Neither 2,4-D nor 2,4,5-T influenced the hepatic concentrations of ATP, coenzyme A (CoA) or glycine; therefore, it is unlikely that they inhibit glycine conjugation of benzoic acid by diminishing the availability of co-substrates. 5. Although the chlorophenoxyacetic acids did not appear to be a substrate for the mitochondrial acyl-CoA synthetases, both 2,4-D and 2,4,5-T diminished the activity of benzoyl-CoA synthetase (but not that of benzoyl-CoA:glycine N-acyltransferase) in solubilized hepatic mitochondria. These findings suggest that 2,4-D and 2,4,5-T impair benzoylglycine formation in rat by inhibiting benzoyl-CoA synthetase.

Abstract
Glycine conjugation of a series of benzoic acid derivatives was investigated in mouse kidney mitochondria. The chlorine and methyl substitutions in the para- and meta-positions of the benzene ring yielded an increase in glycine conjugation. The acids with a methoxy group showed a low degree of glycine conjugation. In addition, the acids with nitro or amino groups were conjugated to a slight extent with glycine. The in vitro conjugation of salicylic acid with glycine occurred not in liver but in kidney. The specificity of the renal medium chain acyl-CoA synthetase catalyzing the first reaction of glycine conjugation was also examined. The enzyme accepted not only medium chain fatty acids but also aromatic and arylacetic acids. The highest activity was shown with hexanoic acid. High activities were observed for benzoic acid derivatives with alkyl and alkoxyl groups in the para- and meta-positions of the benzene ring. An ortho-substituted acid exhibited no activity. In addition, the enzyme was less active with valproic acid, tranexamic acid, indomethacin and ketoprofen. The enzyme was inhibited by diflunisal, 2-hydroxydodecanoic acid and salicylic acid, which did not act as substrates. There was a poor correlation between the activity of the medium chain acyl-CoA synthetase and glycine conjugation of eleven substituted benzoic acids. These findings suggest that the present medium chain acyl-CoA synthetase is involved in glycine conjugation of the substituted acids in mouse kidney mitochondria, but there may be a larger contribution of another isoenzyme.
