摘要：We have reported fatty alcohol synthesis accompanied by chain elongation in liver peroxisomes (Biochim. Biophys. Acta, 1346, 38 (1997)). In the present experiment, we studied what kind of acyl-CoA(s) destined to be utilized as primer for fatty alcohol synthesis accumulate(s) during peroxisomal β-oxidation. Peroxisomes were prepared from rat liver treated with clofibrate, a peroxisome proliferator, and incubated with [U-¹⁴C]palmitate, in order to investigate acyl-CoAs after β-oxidation. At 1 mM concentration, MgATP activated β-oxidation, but inhibited β-oxidation at concentrations higher than 1 mM. After incubation of peroxisomes with palmitate, various acyl-CoAs were formed. Among medium-chain labelled acyl-CoAs, octanoyl-CoA was mainly detected. There results suggest that octanoyl-CoA accumulates during β-oxidation of palmitate. When peroxisomes were incubated with [9,10-³H]palmitate and [9,10-³H]stearate, among medium-chain acyl-CoAs, octanoyl-CoA and decanoyl-CoA were primarily detected, respectively, suggesting the occurrence of at least 4 cycles of β-oxidation of both fatty acids by peroxisomes.
