N2 - Mitochondrial enoyl-CoA isomerase (ECI1) is an auxiliary enzyme involved in unsaturated fatty acid oxidation. In contrast to most of the other enzymes involved in fatty acid oxidation, a deficiency of ECI1 has yet to be identified in humans. We used wild-type (WT) and Eci1-deficient knockout (KO) mice to explore a potential presentation of human ECI1 deficiency. Upon food withdrawal, Eci1-deficient mice displayed normal blood beta-hydroxybutyrate levels (WT 1.09 mM vs. KO 1.10 mM), a trend to lower blood glucose levels (WT 4.58 mM vs. KO 3.87 mM, P=0.09) and elevated blood levels of unsaturated acylcarnitines, in particular C12:1 acylcarnitine (WT 0.03 mu M vs. KO 0.09 mu M, P <0.01). Feeding an olive oil-rich diet induced an even greater increase in C12: 1 acylcarnitine levels (WT 0.01 mu M vs. KO 0.04 mu M, P <0.01). Overall, the phenotypic presentation of Eci1-deficient mice is mild, possibly caused by the presence of a second enoyl-CoA isomerase (Eci2) in mitochondria. Knockdown of Eci2 in Eci1-deficient fibroblasts caused a more pronounced accumulation of C12: 1 acylcarnitine on incubation with unsaturated fatty acids (12-fold, P <0.05). We conclude that Eci2 compensates for Eci1 deficiency explaining the mild phenotype of Eci1-deficient mice. Hypoglycemia and accumulation of C12: 1 acylcarnitine might be diagnostic markers to identify ECI1 deficiency in humans.-van Weeghel, M., te Brinke, H., van Lenthe, H., Kulik, W., Minkler, P.
