ECHS1 (Enoyl CoA hydratase, short chain, 1, mitochondrial) is structurally located in chromosome 10q26.2-q26.3 region consisting of eight exons, with exons I and VIII with the 5′- and 3′-untranslated regions. It has a GC-rich 5′-flanking region with multiple copies of the SP1 binding motive. Its expressions have been found in the human liver, fibroblast and muscle.
Immunogen
Synthetic peptide directed towards the middle region of human ECHS1
Application
Anti-ECHS1 (AB1) antibody produced in rabbit is suitable for western blotting at a concentration of 5.0μg/ml.
Biochem/physiol Actions
Enoyl CoA hydratase, short chain, 1 (ECHS1) is a mitochondrial enzyme that functions in the fatty acid β-oxidation pathway. It catalyzes the hydration of 2-trans-enoyl-coenzyme A (CoA) to L-3-hydroxyacyl-CoAs. It also participates in different metabolic pathways involving fatty acids and amino acids. Study reports that heterozygous mutation in ECHS1 causes Leigh syndrome with hypotonia, metabolic acidosis, and developmental delay symptoms.

Short chain enoyl-CoA hydratase (SCEH) catalyzes the second step of the mitochondrial fatty acid beta-oxidation spiral. We isolated cDNA clones for human SCEH to facilitate investigation of the enzyme structure of the gene and to examine the genetic background of
The second step in mitochondrial fatty acid beta-oxidation is catalyzed by short chain enoyl-CoA hydratase (ECHS1; EC 4.2.1.17). Inherited disorders of this pathway of energy metabolism present clinical and laboratory features resembling sudden infant death syndrome and Reye-like syndrome. To
