In this study we have demonstrated that rat hepatic peroxisomes catalyse the formation of nafenopin-CoA The process is mediated by apparent high affinity (K-m 6.7 mu M), low capacity (V-max 0.31 nmol/mg/min) and low affinity, high capacity isoforms. Palmitic acid (K-i 1.1 mu M), R(-) ibuprofen (K-i 7.9 mu M), ciprofibrate (K-i 60.2 mu M) and clofibric acid (K-i 86.8 mu M) competitively inhibited nafenopin-CoA formation catalysed by the apparent high affinity isoform. An antibody raised against the microsomal palmitoyl-CoA ligase inhibited the equivalent peroxisomal enzyme significantly (P < 0.001) but did not inhibit peroxisomal nafenopin-CoA ligase activity. These data suggest that nafenopin-CoA formation is catalysed by a peroxisomal CoA ligase which differs from the peroxisomal long chain fatty acid-CoA ligase in relation to its xenobiotic/antibody inhibitor profile and kinetic characteristics.
