Chemical Genetics of Acetyl-CoA Carboxylases [PDF]
Molecules, 2013 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 ...

The dynamic organization of fungal acetyl-CoA carboxylase [PDF]
Nature Communications, 2016 Acetyl-CoA carboxylases are central regulatory hubs of fatty acid metabolism and are important targets for drug development in obesity and cancer. Here, the authors demonstrate that the regulation of these highly dynamic enzymes in fungi is governed by a

Hepatic zonation of acetyl-CoA carboxylase activity [PDF]
Biochemical Journal, 1990 The activities of several hepatic enzymes are preferentially zonated to the periportal or perivenous cells of the liver acinus. Employing dual-digitonin-pulse perfusion of rat liver in the study of acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACC), we have identified a heretofore unrecognized feature of hepatic zonation, namely an intrahepatic gradient in enzyme specific ...

Coenzyme A activation of acetyl-CoA carboxylase.
Journal of Biological Chemistry, 1981 Acetyl-CoA carboxylase is activated by physiological concentrations of CoA. Activation of partially purified enzyme by CoA is accompanied by a decrease in the Km for acetyl-CoA from 0.2 mM to about 4 microM, which is the physiological concentration of acetyl-CoA in the cytosol.

Acetyl-CoA Carboxylases and Diseases
Frontiers in Oncology, 2022 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.

Computational and Structural Biotechnology Journal, 2022 Malonyl-CoA is an energy-rich molecule formed by the ATP-dependent carboxylation of acetyl coenzyme A catalyzed by acetyl-CoA carboxylase. This molecule is an important precursor for many biotechnologically interesting compounds such as flavonoids ...

Regulation of acetyl-coA carboxylase: properties of coA activation of acetyl-coA carboxylase. [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 1980 Acetyl-CoA carboxylase [acetyl-CoA:carbon-dioxide ligase (ADP-forming), EC 6.4.1.2] is activated by physiological concentrations of CoA. The CoA concentration dependency of this activation is sigmoidal; below 60 microM there is little or no activation, but the activation observed between 60 and 120 microM indicates that small changes in the ...

Hepatology, EarlyView., 2022 Graphical summary of obesity‐induced NASH progression by LCN2 targeted to HSC activation. Abstract Background and Aims In obesity and type 2 diabetes mellitus, leptin promotes insulin resistance and contributes to the progression of NASH via activation of hepatic stellate cells (HSCs).

RIPK3 dampens mitochondrial bioenergetics and lipid droplet dynamics in metabolic liver disease
Hepatology, EarlyView., 2022 RIPK3 dampens mitochondrial bioenergetics and lipid droplet dynamics in metabolic liver disease. Abstract Background and Aims Receptor‐interacting protein kinase 3 (RIPK3) mediates NAFLD progression, but its metabolic function is unclear. Here, we aimed to investigate the role of RIPK3 in modulating mitochondria function, coupled with lipid droplet (LD)
