In plants, light-dependent activation fatty acid synthesis (FAS) is mediated in part by acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACCase). Here the authors identify a family of genes encoding carboxyltransferase interactors that attenuate FAS in the light by docking ...

Regulation of purified rat liver acetyl CoA carboxylase by phosphorylation
Acetyl CoA carboxylase was purified from liver of fasted-refed rats to near homogeneity, based on electrophoretic analysis and biotin content. These preparations contained an endogenous protein kinase that catalyzed the transfer of radioactive phosphate ...

Lysine acetyltransferase NuA4 and acetyl-CoA regulate glucose-deprived stress granule formation in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. [PDF]
Eukaryotic cells form stress granules under a variety of stresses, however the signaling pathways regulating their formation remain largely unknown. We have determined that the Saccharomyces cerevisiae lysine acetyltransferase complex NuA4 is required ...

Acetyl-CoA carboxylase catalyzes the first committed step in the synthesis of fatty acids. Because fatty acids are required during myelination in the developing brain, it was proposed that the level of acetyl-CoA carboxylase may be highest in embryonic ...

Interaction of acetyl‐CoA fragments with rat liver acetyl‐CoA carboxylase [PDF]
The interaction of acetyl‐CoA fragments with rat liver acetyl‐CoA carboxylase has been studied. Dephosphorylated acetyl‐CoA did not actually differ from acetyl‐CoA in its substrate properties. Non‐nucleotide analogues of the substrate, S‐acetylpantatheine and it's 4′‐phosphate, also possess substrate properties (Vmax= 1.5% and 15% of the maximal rate ...

Studies on the Intracellular Localization of Acetyl-CoA Carboxylase [PDF]
The present work was performed to identify the subcellular localization of hepatic acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACC). Cellular organelles involved in fatty acid oxidation that contain a malonyl-CoA sensitive carnitine palmitoyltransferase (CPT) activity or that are linked to the control of this activity were analysed for the presence of ACC.

Molecular basis and functional characterization of human 3-methylcrotonyl-CoA carboxylase deficiency [PDF]
3-Methylcrotonyl-CoA carboxylase (MCC) deficiency is a rare disorder of leucine catabolism inherited as an autosomal recessive trait. The phenotypic expression of the disease is highly variable, ranging from neonatal onset with severe neurological ...

Mechanisms by which tumor necrosis factor stimulates hepatic fatty acid synthesis in vivo
We have previously shown that bolus intravenous administration of tumor necrosis factor (TNF) to normal rats results in a rapid (within 90 min) stimulation of hepatic fatty acid synthesis, which is sustained for 17 hr.

Acetyl CoA Carboxylase 2 Is Dispensable for CD8+ T Cell Responses. [PDF]
Differentiation of T cells is closely associated with dynamic changes in nutrient and energy metabolism. However, the extent to which specific metabolic pathways and molecular components are determinative of CD8+ T cell fate remains unclear.

Fine-tuning acetyl-CoA carboxylase 1 activity through localization: functional genomics reveals a role for the lysine acetyltransferase NuA4 and sphingolipid metabolism in regulating Acc1 activity and localization [PDF]
Acetyl-CoA Carboxylase 1 catalyzes the conversion of acetyl-CoA to malonyl-CoA, the committed step of de novo fatty acid synthesis. As a master regulator of lipid synthesis, acetyl-CoA carboxylase 1 has been proposed to be a therapeutic target for ...
