title: Differential inactivation of plant lauric acid omega- and in-chain-hydroxylases by terminally unsaturated fatty acids.
abstract: The microsomal fraction from Vicia sativa L. cv. Septimane contains a cytochrome P-450-dependent lauric acid omega-hydroxylase that is inactivated in a time-dependent, pseudo-first-order manner when the microsomes are incubated with 11-dodecynoic acid. The rate constant for the inactivation is approximately 4.3-4.8 X 10(-3) s-1. In contrast, the olefinic analog 11-dodecenoic acid is primarily a time-independent inhibitor of the omega-hydroxylase. 1-Aminobenzotriazole, 3-phenoxy-1-propyne, and 3-(2,4-dichlorophenoxy)-1-propyne, mechanism-based inactivators of cinnamic acid 4-hydroxylase, and 9-decenoic acid, a mechanism-based inactivator of the lauric acid in-chain hydroxylase, are at best poor inactivators of the omega-hydroxylase. Conversely, cinnamic acid 4-hydroxylase is only slightly affected by concentrations of 11-dodecynoic acid that completely inactivate the omega-hydroxylase. 11-Dodecynoic acid is thus a potent, relatively specific, inactivator of the V. sativa lauric acid omega-hydroxylase.
