Plant acetyl-CoA carboxylase: The homomeric form and the heteromeric form [PDF]
Across the domains of life, the enzyme acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACC) converts HCO3−, ATP, and acetyl-CoA to malonyl-CoA, ADP, and Pi. Malonyl-CoA is the building block for all de novo fatty acid biosynthesis.

Targeting acetyl-CoA carboxylase 1 for cancer therapy [PDF]
Metabolic adaptation is an emerging hallmark of tumors. De novo fatty acid synthesis is an important metabolic process to produce metabolic intermediates for energy storage, biosynthesis of membrane lipids and generation of signaling molecules.

Acetyl-CoA carboxylase 1 is a suppressor of the adipocyte thermogenic program [PDF]
Summary: Disruption of adipocyte de novo lipogenesis (DNL) by deletion of fatty acid synthase (FASN) in mice induces browning in inguinal white adipose tissue (iWAT). However, adipocyte FASN knockout (KO) increases acetyl-coenzyme A (CoA) and malonyl-CoA

Purification of Native Acetyl CoA Carboxylase From Mammalian Cells [PDF]
Fatty acid (FA) biosynthesis is a crucial cellular process that converts nutrients into metabolic intermediates necessary for membrane biosynthesis, energy storage, and the production of signaling molecules. Acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACACA) plays a pivotal

Chemical Genetics of Acetyl-CoA Carboxylases [PDF]
Chemical genetic studies on acetyl-CoA carboxylases (ACCs), rate-limiting enzymes in long chain fatty acid biosynthesis, have greatly advanced the understanding of their biochemistry and molecular biology and promoted the use of ACCs as targets for ...

Alternative polyadenylation regulates acetyl-CoA carboxylase function in peanut [PDF]
Background Polyadenylation is a crucial process that terminates mRNA molecules at their 3′-ends. It has been observed that alternative polyadenylation (APA) can generate multiple transcripts from a single gene locus, each with different polyadenylation ...

Chloroflexus aurantiacus acetyl-CoA carboxylase evolves fused biotin carboxylase and biotin carboxyl carrier protein to complete carboxylation activity [PDF]
Acetyl-CoA carboxylases (ACCs) convert acetyl-CoA to malonyl-CoA, a key step in fatty acid biosynthesis and autotrophic carbon fixation pathways. Three functionally distinct components, biotin carboxylase (BC), biotin carboxyl carrier protein (BCCP), and

Solution Structure and NMR Chemical Shift Perturbations of the Arabidopsis BCCP1 Identify Intersubunit Interactions Potentially Involved in the Assembly of the Heteromeric Acetyl‐CoA Carboxylase [PDF]
Biotin carboxyl carrier protein (BCCP) is a subunit of the heteromeric acetyl‐CoA carboxylase (htACCase), and it chemically links the two half‐reactions that constitute the formation of malonyl‐CoA from acetyl‐CoA, a critical reaction in fatty acid ...

Acetyl-CoA Carboxylases and Diseases
Acetyl-CoA carboxylases (ACCs) are enzymes that catalyze the carboxylation of acetyl-CoA to produce malonyl-CoA. In mammals, ACC1 and ACC2 are two members of ACCs. ACC1 localizes in the cytosol and acts as the first and rate-limiting enzyme in the de novo fatty acid synthesis pathway.
