Abstract
A kind of coenzyme A (CoA)-silver coordination complex (CoA-Ag) was in-situ developed and verified to accelerate the electron transferring and electrochemical catalysis of H2O2 decomposition to enhance the cathode ECL intensity of CdTe@CdS QDs. Afterward, a convenient label-free signal-on ECL approach was constructed for CoA detection with excellent specificity. In addition, the unique ECL enhancing phenomenon was also proposed to assay the enzymatic activity of histone acetyltransferases (HAT) and screen relevant inhibitors, exhibiting a promising potential in the practical application of biochemical research, disease diagnosis and drug discovery.

Abstract
The ability to examine real-time reaction kinetics for multimeric enzymes in their native state may offer unique insights into understanding the catalytic mechanism and its interplay with three-dimensional structure. In this study, we have used a time-resolved electrospray mass spectrometry approach to probe the kinetic mechanism of 4-hydroxybenzoyl-coenzyme A (4-HBA-CoA) thioesterase from Arthrobacter sp. strain SU in the millisecond time domain. Intact tetrameric complexes of 4-HBA-CoA thioesterase with up to four natural substrate (4-HBA-CoA) molecules bound were detected at times as early as 6 ms using an online rapid-mixing device directly coupled to an electrospray ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometer. Species corresponding to the formation of a folded tetramer of the thioesterase at charge states 16+, 17+, 18+, and 19+ around m/z 3800 were observed and assigned as individual tetramers of thioesterase and noncovalent complexes of the tetramers with up to four substrate and/or product molecules. Real-time evaluation of the reaction kinetics was accomplished by monitoring change in peak intensity corresponding to the substrate and product complexes of the tetrameric protein. The mass spectral data suggest that product 4-HBA is released from the active site of the enzyme prior to the release of product CoA following catalytic turnover. This study demonstrates the utility of this technique to provide additional molecular details for an understanding of the individual enzyme states during the thioesterase catalysis and ability to observe real-time interactions between enzyme and substrates and/or products in the millisecond time range.

Abstract
Besides its role as a mechanical pump, the human heart serves as an endocrine organ, where known and as yet unknown hormones are produced. It is very likely that these hormones play an important role in cardiovascular regulation. In this study, a new endogenous vasoactive substance, coenzyme A glutathione disulfide (CoASSG), was isolated and identified in myocardial tissue. Human myocardial tissue was extracted with perchloric acid and fractionated by size exclusion-, displacement-, anion-exchange- and reversed-phase chromatography. In one fraction purified to homogeneity, CoASSG was identified by matrix assisted laser desorption/ionization (MALDI) mass-spectrometry, post-source decay MALDI-mass spectrometry and enzymatic structure analysis. Furthermore, CoASSG was also isolated from human cardiac specific granules. CoASSG has potent vasoconstrictive and proliferative effects. Therefore, CoASSG may affect myocardial function as an endocrine or autocrine substance after being released from myocardial specific granules.

Abstract
The novel and rapid assay presented here combines high-performance liquid chromatography and electrospray ionisation tandem mass spectrometry (HPLC-ESI-MS/MS) to directly measure and quantify the CoA esters of 3alpha,7alpha,12alpha-trihydroxy- and 3alpha,7alpha-dihydroxy-5beta-cholestan-26-oic acid (THCA and DHCA). The latter are converted inside peroxisomes to the primary bile acids, cholic and chenodeoxycholic acids, respectively. Prior to MS/MS, esters were separated by reversed-phase HPLC on a C(18) column using an isocratic mobile phase (acetonitrile/water/2-propanol) and subsequently detected by multiple reaction monitoring. For quantification, the CoA ester of deuterium-labelled 3alpha,7alpha,12alpha-trihydroxy-5beta-cholan-24-oic acid (d(4)-CA) was used as internal standard. To complete an assay took less than 8 min. To verify the validity of the assay, the effect of peroxisomal proteins on the efficacy of extraction of the CoA esters was tested. To this end, variable amounts of the CoA esters were spiked with a fixed amount of either intact peroxisomes or peroxisomal matrix proteins and then extracted using a solid-phase extraction system. The CoA esters could be reproducibly recovered in the range of 0.1-4 micromol l(-1) (linear correlation coefficient R(2) > 0.99), with a detection limit of 0.1 micromol l(-1). In summary, electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometry combined with HPLC as described here proved to be a rapid and versatile technique for the determination of bile acid CoA esters in a mixture with peroxisomal proteins. This suggests this technique to become a valuable tool in studies dealing with the multi-step biosynthesis of bile acids and its disturbances in disorders like the Zellweger syndrome.

Abstract
Two isomers of malonyl-coenzyme A (malonyl-CoA) were detected in a commercial preparation of malonyl-CoA. These compounds were separated by preparative high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and characterized by HPLC/ultraviolet (UV)/mass spectrometry. Both compounds had a UV absorbance maximum at 259-260 nm. Both compounds underwent negative electrospray ionization to produce a [M-H](-)quasi-molecular ion at m/z 852 and both compounds underwent collision-induced dissociation to produce a characteristic fragment at m/z 808, all consistent with the structure of malonyl-CoA. Nuclear magnetic resonance spectrometry showed that the two chromatographically distinguishable malonyl-CoAs are structural isomers: the major component is the naturally occurring malonyl-CoA and the contaminant is 3'-dephospho- 2'-phospho-coenzyme A.

Abstract
A method has been developed for the direct determination of coenzyme A (CoA) and organic acid-CoA thioesters in mixtures using directly combined liquid chromatography/electrospray ionization-mass spectrometry (LC/ESI-MS). Mixtures of CoA and organic acid-CoA thioesters were analyzed by LC/ESI-MS with detection of protonated molecular ions and characteristic fragment ions for each compound. The identities of the CoA-thioesters were established based on LC retention times and simultaneously recorded mass spectra. Monitoring of the CoA specific fragment ion at m/z 428 throughout the chromatogram provides a unique fingerprint for CoA content in the samples that corroborates the identification of organic acid-CoA thioesters in the mixtures. Furthermore, fragment ions arising from the ester linkage portion of the molecule allow unambiguous identification of the CoA esters in the samples. A second LC elution system was developed that allows the simultaneous separation and identification of 2-hydroxypropionyl-CoA (lactyl-CoA) and 3-hydroxypropionyl CoA (3HP-CoA), which have the same mass and identical MS fragmentation behavior. The utility of LC/ESI-MS employing this elution system is demonstrated by the determination of 3HP-CoA and lactyl-CoA (converted to CoA-thioesters from their corresponding free acids using CoA-transferase) in fermentation broths from Escherichia coli strains engineered for the production of 3-hydroxypropionic acid (3HP). External calibration employing a purified 3HP-CoA standard allowed indirect quantification of 3HP content in the broth with a precision of 1% (RSD). The feasibility of extending the method described above to perform LC/selected reaction monitoring-tandem mass spectrometry for direct determination of organic acid-CoA thioesters in cells was also demonstrated.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Coenzyme A glutathione disulfide (CoA-SSG) was recently isolated from bovine adrenal glands and was shown to be a renal vasoconstrictor. The identification of CoA-SSG in human parathyroid glands and its action on cultured vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) are described here. METHODS AND RESULTS After purification to homogeneity by several chromatographic steps, CoA-SSG was identified by matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry and enzymatic analysis. The dose-dependent growth-stimulating effect of CoA-SSG on VSMCs, measured by the [(3)H]thymidine method, is characterized by a threshold of 10(-)(8) mol/L and a maximum effect of 10 micromol/L, increasing VSMC proliferation 254+/-21% above control. A dose of 10 micromol/L methylmalonyl-CoA and 10 micromol/L CoA increased the rate of proliferation of VSMCs only by 178+/-43% and 50+/-42% above control, respectively. Glutathione has no proliferative effect on VSMCs. The growth-stimulating effect of CoA-SSG (1 micromol/L) was decreased by the antagonists 3,7-dimethyl-1-propargylxanthine (DMPX; 11 micromol/L) (38% compared with CoA-SSG without antagonist) and pyridoxal-phosphate-6-azophenyl-2,4-disulfonic acid (PPADS; 10 micromol/L) (48% compared with CoA-SSG without antagonist; each P:<0. 05 versus control), indicating that the effect is mediated partly via A(2) and partly via P(2)Y(1) and/or P(2)Y(4) receptor. CONCLUSIONS CoA-SSG may play a regulatory role in VSMC growth as a progression factor and thereby could play an important role in development of hypertension.

Abstract
Malonate decarboxylase of Malonomonas rubra is composed of soluble and membrane-bound components and contains an acetyl residue that is essential for catalytic activity. Upon incubation with hydroxylamine, the acetyl residue is removed, forming an inactive thiol enzyme, which is reactivated by acetylation with ATP, acetate, and a specific ligase. After incubation of the thiol enzyme with iodoacetate in the presence of excess dithioerythritol, the prosthetic group thiol residue was carboxymethylated and reactivation by acetylation was impaired. Radioactive labeling with [1-14C] iodoacetate revealed the site of carboxymethyation on a distinct cytoplasmic protein with the apparent molecular mass of 14 000 Da. The same protein was specifically labeled by enzymic acetylation of the thiol enzyme with [1-14C]acetate and ATP. Malonate decarboxlyation by [14C]acetyl malonate decarboxlyation resulted in the release of the radioactive acetyl residue from the enzyme,indicating that this acetyl residue is exchanged for a malonyl residue during catalysis. The acyl carrier protein has been purified as its [14C]carboxymethylated derivative to apparent homogeneity. The prosthetic group of the acyl carrier protein was isolated after alkaline hydrolysis, and its chemical structure was identified by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) with the corresponding compound from citrate lyase from Klebsiella pneumoniae as reference and by mass spectrometry. Malonate decarboxylase was found to carry the same prosthetic group as citrate lyase, i.e. 2'-(5"-phosphoribosyl)-3'-dephospho-CoA.

Abstract
The adrenal gland is involved in the regulation of vascular tone by secretion of vasoactive agents such as catecholamines, neuropeptide Y, or endogenous ouabain. A further potent vasoconstrictor is isolated from bovine adrenal glands and is identified by chromatography, mass spectrometry, UV spectroscopy, and enzymatic cleavage as coenzyme A glutathione disulfide (CoASSG). CoASSG is found in chromaffin granules of adrenal glands and is released from adrenal medulla slices by carbachol. At a concentration of 10(-12) mol/L CoASSG increases renal vascular resistance. Intra-aortic injection of 5 x 10(-10) mol CoASSG increases blood pressure in the intact animal. Besides its vasopressor properties, this substance potentiates the effects of angiotensin II on vascular tone. It is concluded that CoASSG could play a role in blood pressure regulation not only by direct effects but also by modulation of the action of angiotensin II.

Abstract
The elongation system for palmitic acid in rat liver microsomes was decreased to 1/3 by fasting, while the elongation of eicosapentaenoic acid was not sensitive to fasting. The rate of eicosapentaenoic acid elongation in the fed state was 50% higher than using palmitic acid as a substrate. The saturated and polyunsaturated fatty acyl-CoA substrates exhibited positive cooperativity on the rate-limiting condensing step in the elongation system, with a Hill constant of approx. 2. An inhibition by CoASH on the total elongation reaction as well as on the condensation step was demonstrated using acyl-CoA substrates, and followed a hyperbolic pattern. The concentrations giving a 50% inhibition (30-70 microM) were in the range found in rat hepatocyte cytosol, indicating that free CoASH has the potential to act as a physiological regulator.

Abstract
A method for the removal of CoASH from tissue extracts by maleic anhydride is described. It eliminates CoASH interference in the acetyl-CoA cycling assay using phosphotransacetylase and citrate synthase. Maleyl-CoA thioether does not hydrolyze under the conditions of the assay and allows a reduction in the number of blank samples during acetyl-CoA determination. The levels of acetyl-CoA in whole rat brain, isolated synaptosomes, and mitochondria were found to be 61, 8.6, and 31.3 pmol/mg of protein, respectively.

Abstract
On subfractionation of purified rat liver peroxisomes in matrical, peripheral membrane, integral membrane and core protein fractions, the endogenous peroxisomal CoA was released together with the matrix proteins. The released CoA could not be measured by an enzymatic cycling assay unless the matrix proteins were denatured by acid treatment or by heating at alkaline pH. The cofactor could not be removed by dialysis of the matrix proteins unless salt was added. It was not displaced by exogenous CoA. It migrated into sucrose density gradients together with a protein of approximately 80 kDa. The results indicate that peroxisomal CoA is firmly bound to a matrix protein and that the presence of CoA inside purified peroxisomes does not necessarily imply that the peroxisomal membrane is impermeable to this cofactor.

Abstract
A two-step method of determining reduced coenzyme A (CoASH) concentrations in tissue or cell extracts is described. In the first step, CoASH is reacted with acetylphosphate in a reaction catalyzed by phosphotransacetylase to yield acetyl-CoA. Acetyl-CoA is then condensed with [14C]oxaloacetate by citrate synthase to give [14C]citrate. This method allows the measurement of 10-200 pmol of CoASH. By omitting the phosphotransacetylase step, measurement of the same amount of acetyl-CoA is possible.

Abstract
The structure of the CoA affinity analog-oxidized CoA disulfide (o-CoAS2) (Collier, G. E., and Nishimura, J. S. (1978) J. Biol. Chem. 253, 4938-4939) has been deduced to be that of the thiosulfonate of CoA, i.e. coenzyme A disulfide-S,S-dioxide. This deduction is based on several considerations among which are: the cleavage of o-CoAS2 by dithiothreitol under anaerobic conditions to equimolar amounts of CoASH and CoASO2H; the alkali-catalyzed dismutation of 3 mol of o-CoAS2 to 4 mol of CoASO2H and 1 mol of CoA disulfide; and comparison of the 13C-NMR spectra of CoA disulfide and o-CoAS2. The results of studies with Clostridial phosphotransacetylase (EC 2.3.1.8) and pigeon muscle carnitine acetyltransferase (EC 2.3.1.7) were consistent with the action of o-CoAS2 as a CoA affinity analog on these enzymes. Inactivation was characterized by what appeared to be disulfide bonding between CoA and important sulfhydryl groups of the proteins.

Abstract
Control of coenzyme A synthesis was studied in isolated, perfused rat hearts. Pantothenic acid (PA), coenzyme A, and intermediates in the the pathway were separated by high pressure liquid chromatography. The amount of 14C label in each of the metabolites was determined in tissue extracts when [14C]PA was supplied in the perfusate. The rate-controlling steps in the pathway were determined by measuring the net rate of [14C]PA flux through each of the reactions. The data indicated that the primary site of control in the pathway was the pantothenate kinase-catalyzed reaction, the first intracellular step in the conversion of PA to CoA. The rate of this reaction was inhibited by including glucose, pyruvate, fatty acids, or beta-hydroxybutyrate in the perfusate of isolated hearts. Pyruvate and beta-hydroxybutyrate caused a much greater inhibition than did glucose. Insulin was a strong inhibitor, but only in the presence of glucose. Insulin had no effect in hearts receiving either no substrate or palmitate as substrate. Collectively, these data indicated that an unknown tissue metabolite whose level changed with each of these substrates and insulin is a strong regulator of pantothenate kinase. Synthesis of CoA occurred in both the cytosolic and mitochondrial compartments. Accelerated mitochondrial CoA synthesis appeared to be dependent upon the production and accumulation of 4'-phosphopantotheine, which occurred only when pantothenate kinase was stimulated.

Abstract
The commercially available gel, 2-pyridyl disulphide hydroxypropyl ether-Sepharose (thiopropyl-Sepharose 6B), can be used to remove bound ligand completely from butyryl-CoA dehydrogenase (EC 1.399.2) in two simple operations. The resultant enzyme forms normal complexes with acetoacetyl-CoA and CoA persulphide, contains no bound CoA as determined by the enzymatic assay for CoA, and retains full catalytic activity.

Abstract
The coenzymes A-synthesizing protein complex (CoA-SPC) of Bakers' yeast synthesizes coenzyme A in an in vitro system from the precursors ATP, D-pantothenic acid and L-cysteine. CoA-SPC has been produced on a small scale by freezing Bakers' yeast cells in a mixture of diethyl ether and solid CO2, followed by a thawing period, and subsequent removal of the diethyl ether by vacuum. The resulting yeast lysate was then stirred for 18 h in the presence of t-Factor to solubilize CoA-SPC. When a greater quantity of CoA-SPC was needed, the danger associated with the use of a large volume of diethyl ether was apparent. Therefore, the freezing step involving diethyl ether and solid CO2 has been replaced by a process of slowly drying fresh Bakers' yeast until approximately 34% of the initial weight of the yeast remained as dry solids. The yeast solids were ground to further disrupt the cell wall and membrane structure. The grinding step was followed by rehydration of the dry yeast solids with deionized H2O and stirring the rehydrated yeast for 18 h to solubilize CoA-SPC.

Abstract
The nucleotides DSI and DSII induced during a slowdown in growth of E. coli have been characterized using chemical and biochemical analysis and by enzymic and alkaline fragmentation. DSI consists a coenzyme A and glutathione joined by a disulfide linkage. DSI could be isolated either containing Fe(III) with an A250:260 ratio of 1.05 or not containing iron with an A250:260 of 0.87. DSII (isolated in 10% the yield of DSI) is a coenzyme A disulfide dimer that also contains two molecules of glutamic acid. DSI was a substrate for NADPH-dependent CoAS-SG reductase (EC 1.6.4.6) which was present in crude extracts of E. coli. The specific activity of CoAS-SG reductase increased during growth from early log phase into stationary phase and during a shift from aerobic to anaerobic growth.

Abstract
To develop an efficient method for the production of coenzyme A (CoA), optimal conditions for its formation from pantothenic acid, cysteine, and adenine were studied. A number of microorganisms were screened for production of CoA. Strains belonging to the genera Sarcina, Bacillus, Microbacterium, Micrococcus, and Serratia accumulated CoA. Among these, Sarcina lutea was selected as the best organism, and the culture conditions for the production of CoA were investigated with this organism. Under optimal conditions, 600 mug of CoA per ml was accumulated in the culture broth. CoA was readily isolated in high purity by the use of charcoal, diethylaminoethyl-cellulose, Sephadex G-25, and Dowex-50. Yields of isolated CoA were over 33% from culture broth.

Abstract
The 2-hydroxy fatty acids tend to yield streaks in thin-layer chromatography on silica gel plates. If potassium oxalate is included with binder-free silica gel, good spots are obtained. Similar difficulties are found in paper chromatography of the fatty acid derivatives of coenzyme A, especially with long-chain acids. The same thin-layer system gives good spots with these compounds.

Abstract
Acetyl coenzyme A carboxylases purified from several animal tissues exist as enzymatically active polymeric filaments of high molecular weight and have simillar electron microscopic, hydrodynamic, and catalytic properties. These filaments reversibly dissociate into inactive protomers of uniform size. Their re-assembly into catalytically active filaments is promoted by the presence of an allosteric activator.

Abstract
The rate of formation of acetoacetate in vitro by tissue extracts from acetyl phosphate and coenzyme A in the presence of phosphate transacetylase and β-ketothiolase is proportional to protein concentration with extracts of most tissues. However, studies with chicken liver extracts are complicated by the presence in these extracts of a factor which interferes with acetoacetate formation. This factor has been identified as an acid phosphohydrolase which hydrolyzes the phosphate monoester bond of coenzyme A, forming the inactive 3′-dephosphocoenzyme A. This enzyme has been purified 300-fold from chicken liver extracts, and some of its properties have been examined. The rate of inactivation of coenzyme A by the enzyme is neither enhanced by divalent cation nor inhibited by metal-binding agents. Enzymatic inactivation of coenzyme A is optimal at pH 3.6, with half-maximal rates observed at pH 5.5 and below pH 2.5. The most highly purified enzyme fraction exhibited phosphohydrolase activity against a wide variety of phosphate esters. Some evidence was obtained to suggest that the coenzyme A phosphohydrolase could be separated from nonspecific acid phosphohydrolase.
