Rat liver mitochondrial outer membrane enriched preparations have proven to be a convenient enzyme source for synthesizing coenzyme A (CoA) and carnitine esters of radioactive fatty acids. These membranes are simple to isolate and they retain acyl-CoA ligase and carnitine palmitoyltransferase activities well upon storage. Enzyme purification is not required. A novel aspect of the present procedure is that the same enzymatic incubation step allows both the acyl-CoA and the acylcarnitine esters to be obtained simultaneously when carnitine is present, but produces acyl-CoA ester only when carnitine is not included. Under the conditions described, the conversion of [1-14C]octanoic acid to the respective esters was about 95%; the corresponding figure for [1-14C]palmitic acids was over 70%. The procedure seems suitable for synthesizing the labeled CoA and carnitine esters from a variety of radioactive fatty acids.
