| Abstract | We studied the role of FAD in the intramitochondrial folding and assembly of medium-chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase (MCAD), a homotetrameric mitochondrial enzyme containing a molecule of non-covalently bound FAD/monomer. In the MCAD molecule, FAD is buried in a crevice containing the active center. We have previously shown that upon import into mitochondria, newly processed MCAD is first incorporated into a high molecular weight (hMr) complex and that the hMr complex mainly consisted of MCAD-heat-shock protein 60 (hsp60) complex (Saijo, T., Welch, W. J., and Tanaka, K(1994) J. Biol. Chem. 269, 4401-4408). In the present study, we incubated in vitro synthesized precursor MCAD with mitochondria isolated from normal and riboflavin-deficient rat liver for 10-60 min and fractionated the solubilized mitochondria using gel filtration. The amount of MCAD in the hMr complex was larger and that of tetramer was smaller in riboflavin-deficient mitochondria than in control at any time point. In addition, riboflavin-deficient mitochondria were solubilized after 10-min import in a buffer containing ATP and were chased in the presence of FAD, FMN, or NAD or without any addition. The mitochondrial proteins were analyzed using gel filtration or immunoprecipitated with anti-hsp60 antibody. After 60-min chase in the presence of FAD, the majority of MCAD in the complex with hsp60 was transferred to tetramer, whereas no such transfer occurred after the chase in the absence of FAD. When chase was done in the presence of FMN, a significant amount of MCAD was transferred from the complex with hsp60 to tetramer, but the transfer was not as efficient as in the presence of FAD. The chase in the presence of NAD resulted in no transfer. These data suggest that isoalloxazine ring of FAD plays a critical role, exerting nucleating effect, in the hsp60-assisted folding of MCAD subunit into an assembly competent conformation, probably assisting the formation of the core. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
