Methylmalonate semialdehyde dehydrogenase purified to homogeneity from rat liver possesses, in addition to its coupled aldehyde dehydrogenase and CoA ester synthetic activity, the ability to hydrolyze p-nitrophenyl acetate. The following observations suggest that this activity is an active site phenomenon: (a) p-nitrophenyl acetate hydrolysis was inhibited by malonate semialdehyde, substrate for the dehydrogenase reaction; (b) p-nitrophenyl acetate was a strong competitive inhibitor of the dehydrogenase activity; (c) NAD+ and NADH activated the esterase activity; (d) coenzyme A, acceptor of acyl groups in the dehydrogenase reaction, accelerated the esterase activity; and (e) the product of the esterase reaction proceeding in the presence of coenzyme A was acetyl-CoA. These findings suggest that an S-acyl enzyme (thioester intermediate) is likely common to both the esterase reaction and the aldehyde dehydrogenase/CoA ester synthetic reaction.
