General description

2-Bromooctanoic acid is an effective substitute for the expensive (2,000 times) and cell-growth-inhibiting polyhydroxyalkanoic acid synthesis inhibitor, cerulenin[1]. It blocks the formation of polyhydroxyalkanoic acid in Pseudomonas fluorescens BM07 without any influence on the cell growth when grown on fructose[2]. It inhibits β-oxidation of fatty acids in perfused rat liver and in mitochondria isolated from rat liver[3].

Incubation of rat liver mitochondria with 10 microM DL-2-bromooctanoate causes complete and irreversible inactivation of 3-ketothiolase I (acyl-CoA:acetyl-CoA C-acyltransferase). Evidence is presented that mitochondria convert bromooctanoate to 2-bromo-3-ketooctanoyl-CoA, an alpha-haloketone which is probably the active form of the inhibitor. The

Mixed-function oxidation of p-nitroanisole in isolated perfused livers from fasted rats was studied in the presence and absence of 2-bromooctanoate, an inhibitor of the beta-oxidation of acyl CoA compounds. These experiments were designed to test the hypothesis that reducing equivalents

The induction of peroxisomal beta-oxidation activities by bezafibrate in cultured rat hepatocytes and in the rat in vivo was prevented by inhibitors of carnitine acyltransferase, e.g. 2-bromopalmitate, 2-[5-(4-chlorophenyl)pentyl]oxirane-2-carboxylate or 2-tetradecylglycidic acid. 2.
