Supplementary information

The CBR4 protein also known as Carbonyl Reductase 4 is an enzyme with a molecular mass of approximately 28 kDa. It functions as a NADPH-dependent oxidoreductase and plays a role in fatty acid metabolism. CBR4 is expressed in various tissues including the liver and the heart where it participates in several metabolic processes. The alternate name 'CBR4 SDS' is not typically used in scientific literature.
Biological function summary

CBR4 acts in concert with other proteins as part of a heterotetrameric complex. Its primary role involves the reduction of carbonyl compounds which is essential in lipid synthesis and energy production. The enzyme contributes to the maintenance of cellular redox states and is involved in mitochondrial function thereby supporting the energy demands of cells.

Pathways

The protein CBR4 integrates into the fatty acid biosynthetic and oxidative phosphorylation pathways. It processes carbonyl substrates in conjunction with other enzymes such as NADPH:quinone oxidoreductase. By facilitating these pathways CBR4 supports the cellular energy economy and the construction of cell membranes. Its activity interlinks with other mitochondrial enzymes enhancing the efficiency of mitochondrial respiration and lipid metabolism.

The CBR4 protein associates with disorders like non-alcoholic fatty liver disease and type 2 diabetes mellitus. The functional impairment of CBR4 may disrupt lipid metabolism leading to lipid accumulation and insulin resistance. CBR4's activity intersects with proteins like sterol regulatory element-binding proteins further connecting its role to metabolic syndrome and liver dysfunction.

General info

Function

Component of the heterotetramer complex KAR (3-ketoacyl-[acyl carrier protein] reductase or 3-ketoacyl-[ACP] reductase) that forms part of the mitochondrial fatty acid synthase (mtFAS). Beta-subunit of the KAR heterotetramer complex, responsible for the 3-ketoacyl-ACP reductase activity of the mtFAS, reduces 3-oxoacyl-[ACP] to (3R)-hydroxyacyl-[ACP] in a NADPH-dependent manner with no chain length preference, thereby participating in mitochondrial fatty acid biosynthesis (PubMed : 25203508). The homotetramer has NADPH-dependent quinone reductase activity (in vitro), hence could play a role in protection against cytotoxicity of exogenous quinones (PubMed : 19000905). As a heterotetramer, it can also reduce 9,10-phenanthrenequinone, 1,4-benzoquinone and various other o-quinones and p-quinones (in vitro) (PubMed : 19000905, PubMed : 19571038, PubMed : 25203508).
