==Biological Significance: Metabolism==
ECH is essential to [[metabolizing]] [[fatty acids]] in [[beta oxidation]] to produce both [[acetyl CoA]] and [[energy]] in the form of [[Adenosine triphosphate|ATP]].<ref name=":0" />
Enoyl-CoA hydratase [[catalyzes]] the second step in the breakdown of fatty acids or the second step of [[β-oxidation]] in fatty acid metabolism shown below.  Fatty acid metabolism is how our bodies turn [[fat]]s or [[lipids]] into energy.  When fats come into our bodies, they are generally in the form of triacyl-glycerols.  These must be broken down in order for the fats to pass into our bodies.  When that happens, three fatty acids are released.


In [[fatty acid metabolism]], fatty acids are changed into fatty acyl-CoA. To do this, the [[carboxylate]] which occupies one end of the fatty acid is changed into a [[thioester]] by substituting coenzyme A for the [[hydroxyl group]]. Next the fatty acyl-CoA is [[oxidized]] and broken down into an acetyl-CoA molecule and another acyl-CoA.  The acetyl CoA is then sent to the [[citric acid cycle]] while the remaining acyl-CoA is broken down further into acetyl-CoAs.  The complete breakdown of a fatty acid not only generates acetyl-CoA molecules, but it also generates energy in the form of [[NADH]].  This NADH goes on to be converted into ATP which can be used in other reactions.<ref>Nelson, David L., and Michael M. Cox. Lehninger Principles of Biochemistry. 4th ed. New York: W. H. Freeman and Company, 2005. 637-643.</ref>
ECH of rats is a [[hexameric protein]] (this trait is not universal, but human enzyme is also hexameric), which leads to the efficiency of this enzyme as it has 6 active sites. This enzyme has been discovered to be highly efficient, and allows people to metabolize fatty acids into energy very quickly. In fact this enzyme is so efficient that the [[reaction rate|rate]] for short chain fatty acids is equivalent to that of diffusion-controlled [[Chemical reaction|reactions]].<ref name="Engel_1998">{{cite journal|vauthors=Engel CK, Kiema TR, Hiltunen JK, Wierenga RK|title=The crystal structure of enoyl-CoA hydratase complexed with octanoyl-CoA reveals the structural adaptations required for binding of a long chain fatty acid-CoA molecule|journal=Journal of Molecular Biology|volume=275|issue=5|pages=847–59|date=February 1998|pmid=9480773|doi=10.1006/jmbi.1997.1491 }}</ref>

Enoyl-CoA hydratase (ECH) or crotonase[1] is an enzyme that hydrates the double bond between the second and third carbons on 2-trans/cis-enoyl-CoA:[2]

File:Enoyl-CoA hydratase reaction cis.svg

ECH is essential to metabolizing fatty acids in beta oxidation to produce both acetyl CoA and energy in the form of ATP.[2]

ECH of rats is a hexameric protein (this trait is not universal, but human enzyme is also hexameric), which leads to the efficiency of this enzyme as it has 6 active sites. This enzyme has been discovered to be highly efficient, and allows people to metabolize fatty acids into energy very quickly. In fact this enzyme is so efficient that the rate for short chain fatty acids is equivalent to that of diffusion-controlled reactions.[3]

Metabolism

Fatty acid metabolism

ECH catalyzes the second step (hydratation) in the breakdown of fatty acids (β-oxidation).[4] Fatty acid metabolism is how human bodies turn fats into energy. Fats in foods are generally in the form of triglycerols. These must be broken down in order for the fats to pass into human bodies. When that happens, three fatty acids are released.

Leucine metabolism

Mechanism

ECH is used in β-oxidation to add a hydroxyl group and a proton to the unsaturated β-carbon on a fatty-acyl CoA. ECH functions by providing two glutamate residues as catalytic acid and base. The two amino acids hold a water molecule in place, allowing it to attack in a syn addition to an α-β unsaturated acyl-CoA at the β-carbon. The α-carbon then grabs another proton, which completes the formation of the beta-hydroxy acyl-CoA.

Concerted reaction.

It is also known from experimental data that no other sources of protons reside in the active site. This means that the proton which the α-carbon grabs is from the water that just attacked the β-carbon. What this implies is that the hydroxyl group and the proton from water are both added from the same side of the double bond, a syn addition. This allows ECH to make an S stereoisomer from 2-trans-enoyl-CoA and an R stereoisomer from the 2-cis-enoyl-CoA. This is made possible by the two glutamate residues which hold the water in position directly adjacent to the α-β unsaturated double bond. This configuration requires that the active site for ECH is extremely rigid, to hold the water in a very specific configuration with regard to the acyl-CoA. The data for a mechanism for this reaction is not conclusive as to whether this reaction is concerted (shown in the picture) or occurs in consecutive steps. If occurring in consecutive steps, the intermediate is identical to that which would be generated from an E1cB-elimination reaction.[8]

ECH is mechanistically similar to fumarase.
