Summary

HADHA (hydroxyacyl-CoA dehydrogenase trifunctional multienzyme complex subunit alpha, HGNC:4801) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 2p23.3, encoding Trifunctional enzyme subunit alpha, mitochondrial (P40939). Mitochondrial trifunctional enzyme catalyzes the last three of the four reactions of the mitochondrial beta-oxidation pathway.

This gene encodes the alpha subunit of the mitochondrial trifunctional protein, which catalyzes the last three steps of mitochondrial beta-oxidation of long chain fatty acids. The mitochondrial membrane-bound heterocomplex is composed of four alpha and four beta subunits, with the alpha subunit catalyzing the 3-hydroxyacyl-CoA dehydrogenase and enoyl-CoA hydratase activities. Mutations in this gene result in trifunctional protein deficiency or LCHAD deficiency. The genes of the alpha and beta subunits of the mitochondrial trifunctional protein are located adjacent to each other in the human genome in a head-to-head orientation.

Function. Mitochondrial trifunctional enzyme catalyzes the last three of the four reactions of the mitochondrial beta-oxidation pathway. The mitochondrial beta-oxidation pathway is the major energy-producing process in tissues and is performed through four consecutive reactions breaking down fatty acids into acetyl-CoA. Among the enzymes involved in this pathway, the trifunctional enzyme exhibits specificity for long-chain fatty acids. Mitochondrial trifunctional enzyme is a heterotetrameric complex composed of two proteins, the trifunctional enzyme subunit alpha/HADHA described here carries the 2,3-enoyl-CoA hydratase and the 3-hydroxyacyl-CoA dehydrogenase activities while the trifunctional enzyme subunit beta/HADHB bears the 3-ketoacyl-CoA thiolase activity. Independently of subunit beta, HADHA also exhibits a cardiolipin acyltransferase activity that participates in cardiolipin remodeling; cardiolipin is a major mitochondrial membrane phospholipid. HADHA may act downstream of Tafazzin/TAZ, that remodels monolysocardiolipin (MLCL) to a cardiolipin intermediate, and then HADHA may continue to remodel this species into mature tetralinoleoyl-cardiolipin. Has also been proposed to act directly on MLCL; capable of acylating MLCL using different acyl-CoA substrates, with highest activity for oleoyl-CoA.

Subunit / interactions. Heterotetramer of 2 alpha/HADHA and 2 beta/HADHB subunits; forms the mitochondrial trifunctional enzyme. Also purified as higher order heterooligomers including a 4 alpha/HADHA and 4 beta/HADHB heterooligomer which physiological significance remains unclear. The mitochondrial trifunctional enzyme interacts with MTLN.

Subcellular location. Mitochondrion. Mitochondrion inner membrane.

Disease relevance. Mitochondrial trifunctional protein deficiency 1 (MTPD1) [MIM:609015] An autosomal recessive metabolic disorder of long-chain fatty acid oxidation, biochemically characterized by loss of all enzyme activities of the mitochondrial trifunctional protein complex. The disease phenotype ranges from a fatal form characterized by early-onset cardiomyopathy, cardiac failure and early death to less severe, late-onset forms with myopathy, recurrent rhabdomyolysis, and sensorimotor axonal neuropathy as key features. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry. Long-chain 3-hydroxyl-CoA dehydrogenase deficiency (LCHAD deficiency) [MIM:609016] The clinical features are very similar to TFP deficiency. Biochemically, LCHAD deficiency is characterized by reduced long-chain 3-hydroxyl-CoA dehydrogenase activity, while the other enzyme activities of the TFP complex are normal or only slightly reduced. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry. Maternal acute fatty liver of pregnancy (AFLP) [MIM:609016] Severe maternal illness occurring during pregnancies with affected fetuses. This disease is associated with LCHAD deficiency and characterized by sudden unexplained infant death or hypoglycemia and abnormal liver enzymes (Reye-like syndrome). The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry.

Induction. Up-regulated by thyroid hormone (at protein level).

Pathway. Lipid metabolism; fatty acid beta-oxidation.

Miscellaneous. May be produced at very low levels due to a premature stop codon in the mRNA, leading to nonsense-mediated mRNA decay.

Similarity. In the N-terminal section; belongs to the enoyl-CoA hydratase/isomerase family. In the central section; belongs to the 3-hydroxyacyl-CoA dehydrogenase family.

Reactome pathways and GO biological processes over-represented among this gene’s 219 IntAct physical interaction partners (hypergeometric vs the genome-wide background, BH-FDR, gene-set size 15–500, ranked by fold). A functional readout of the neighbourhood — distinct from this gene’s own memberships above, and biased toward well-studied / hub proteins, so read it as themes rather than proof.
