The 2-enoyl-CoA hydratase/3-hydroxyacyl-CoA dehydrogenase (HD) is the second enzyme of the peroxisomal beta-oxidation pathway. In human and rat, only one HD mRNA has been so far detected in the liver. This paper reports for the first time in a mammal species, the guinea pig, the cloning and sequencing of two cDNAs encoding an HD. The 3,274 nucleotide-cDNA is a strictly identical but longer copy of the 2,494 nucleotide-form. A 2,178 bp-open reading frame encodes a protein of 726 amino acids (M(r) 79.3 kDa) with the peroxisomal-targeting signal (tripeptide SKL) at the carboxyterminus. Northern blot analysis of HD mRNA identified three mRNAs of respective sizes 3.5, 2.6 and 1.6 kb in the guinea pig liver and kidneys.

D004746 Enoyl-CoA Hydratase An enzyme that catalyzes reversibly the hydration of unsaturated fatty acyl-CoA to yield beta-hydroxyacyl-CoA. It plays a role in the oxidation of fatty acids and in mitochondrial fatty acid synthesis, has broad specificity, and is most active with crotonyl-CoA.
