Abstract
Deficiency of enoyl-CoA hydratase: 3-hydroxyacyl-CoA dehydrogenase (peroxisomal bifunctional enzyme), one of the enzymes of the peroxisomal beta-oxidation system, leads to clinical manifestations resembling Zellweger syndrome with hypotonia, psychomotor delay, hepatomegaly, typical facial appearance and accumulation of very long-chain fatty acids. The nucleotide sequence of the human peroxisomal enoyl-CoA hydratase: 3-hydroxyacyl-CoA dehydrogenase cDNA has been reported by Hoefler and colleagues; however, we have found some amino acid differences from our originally isolated cDNA. Contrary to the findings described in a previous paper, we report here the cDNA sequence of human peroxisomal enoyl-CoA hydratase: 3-hydroxyacyl-CoA dehydrogenase in which there are 9 authenticated amino acid alterations.
