    Different forms of rat liver medium-chain acyl CoA dehydrogenase (MCAD) (EC 1.3.99.3) were produced in Escherichia coli carrying expression plasmids (pRMCADm-1 approximately 9) differing at the 5'-region of the cDNA. The proteins expressed could be readily extracted from the cells. The protein (approximately 44 kDa) directed by pRMCADm-3 showed the highest activity and was readily purified to homogeneity. The purified enzyme contained non-covalently bound FAD and was similar to rat liver mitochondrial enzyme in all respects examined. The purified protein (approximately 45 kDa) directed by pRMCADm-1 did not contain FAD and showed no enzymatic activity. Therefore, the leader peptide disturbs the binding of FAD to the apoprotein. The purified protein (approximately 40 kDa) directed by pRMCADm-6 did not contain FAD. Thus, the deletion of the NH2-terminal portion of the apoprotein to some extent results in its inability to combine with FAD.
