Colin Thorpe* and Vincent Massey abstract: The apoprotein of pig kidney general acyl-CoA dehydrogenase has been reconstituted with eight ring-modified flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD) analogues to probe the environment of the bound flavin and theinteraction of the enzyme with acyl-CoAderivatives. Addition of 8-C1-, 7-Br-, and 2-thio-FAD yields holoenzymes that can be reduced by octanoyl-CoA and that exhibit appreciable enzymatic activity in an assay system utilizing phenazine methosulfate as a mediator. In contrast, reconstitution of the enzyme with analogues that have more negative standard redox potentials than FAD, 1-deaza-, 5-deaza-, 6-OH-, 8-OH-, and 8-mercapto-FAD, generates derivatives that are inactive and not significantly reduced by thioester substrates. In the reverse direction, the 5-deaza-FADH2 dehydrogenase is rapidly re-oxidized by crotonyl-CoA, suggesting that the highly unfavored 5-deazaflavosemiquinone is not an obligatory intermediate in this reaction. Experiments with 8-C1-and 8-mercapto-FAD-Recently, there has been a resurgence of interest in the acyl-CoA dehydrogenases and in particular in the general acyl-CoA dehydrogenase that participates in mammalian fatty acid oxidation. This mitochondrial flavoprotein was first studied by Beinert and co-workers (Crane et al., 1956; Beinert, 1963) and exhibits a broad substrate specificity with optimal activity toward medium chain length acyl-CoA thioesters (Crane et al., 1956; Hall & Kamin, 1975; Thorpe et al., 1979). These substrates induce rapid bleaching of the flavin prosthetic
