Activation of AMP-activated protein kinase by metformin induces protein acetylation in prostate and ovarian cancer cells [PDF]
, 2016 AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) is an energy sensor and master regulator of metabolism. AMPK functions as a fuel gauge monitoring systemic and cellular energy status.

Lysine acetyltransferase NuA4 and acetyl-CoA regulate glucose-deprived stress granule formation in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. [PDF]
PLoS Genetics, 2017 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 ...

ACCase 6 is the essential acetyl-CoA carboxylase involved in fatty acid and mycolic acid biosynthesis in mycobacteria [PDF]
, 2009 Mycolic acids are essential for the survival, virulence and antibiotic resistance of the human pathogen Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Inhibitors of mycolic acid biosynthesis, such as isoniazid and ethionamide, have been used as efficient drugs for the ...

Regulation of purified rat liver acetyl CoA carboxylase by phosphorylation
Journal of Lipid Research, 1983 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 ...

Journal of Lipid Research, 1991 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 ...

Minimizing acetate formation in E. coli fermentations [PDF]
, 2007 Escherichia coli remains the best established production organisms in industrial biotechnology. However, during aerobic fermentation runs at high growth rates, considerable amounts of acetate are accumulated as by-product.

Interaction of acetyl‐CoA fragments with rat liver acetyl‐CoA carboxylase [PDF]
European Journal of Biochemistry, 1990 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 ...

Mechanisms by which tumor necrosis factor stimulates hepatic fatty acid synthesis in vivo
Journal of Lipid Research, 1988 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]
PLoS ONE, 2015 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.

A Substrate-induced Biotin Binding Pocket in the Carboxyltransferase Domain of Pyruvate Carboxylase [PDF]
, 2013 Biotin-dependent enzymes catalyze carboxyl transfer reactions by efficiently coordinating multiple reactions between spatially distinct active sites. Pyruvate carboxylase (PC), a multifunctional biotin-dependent enzyme, catalyzes the bicarbonate- and ...
