Metabolism of Fatty Acid Hydroperoxides by Chlorella pyrenoidosa.

The green alga Chlorella pyrenoidosa was examined for its ability to metabolize 13-hydroperoxylinoleic and 13-hydroperoxylinolenic acids. The study showed that Chlorella extracts possessed hydroperoxide dehydrase and other enzymes of the jasmonic acid pathway. However, under normal laboratory conditions for culture growth, neither jasmonic acid nor metabolites of the jasmonic acid pathway were present in Chlorella. In vitro enzyme studies also revealed the presence of hydroperoxide lyase activity that cleaved 13-hydroperoxylinoleic or 13-hydroperoxylinolenic acid into two products, 13-oxo-cis-9,trans-11-tridecadienoic acid and pentane (from linoleic acid) or pentene (from linolenic acid). The lyase was heat-labile, insensitive to 50 millimolar KCN, and had an approximate molecular weight of 48,000 as estimated by gel filtration. Two other products, 13-hydroxy-cis-9,trans-11,cis-15-octadecatrienoic acid and 12, 13-trans-epoxy-9-oxo-trans-10,cis-15-octadecadienoic acid, were also observed. Because these compounds are also products of nonenzymic, Fe(II)-catalyzed hydroperoxide decomposition reactions, their presence suggested that the observed lyase activity may occur via a homolytic decomposition mechanism.
