Metabolic syndrome influences cardiac gene expression pattern at the transcript level in male ZDF rats [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Background: Metabolic syndrome (coexisting visceral obesity, dyslipidemia, hyperglycemia, and hypertension) is a prominent risk factor for cardiovascular morbidity and mortality, however, its effect on cardiac gene expression pattern is unclear ...

Preservation of Acyl Coenzyme A Attenuates Pathological and Metabolic Cardiac Remodeling Through Selective Lipid Trafficking.

open access: yesCirculation, 2019
BACKGROUND Metabolic remodeling in heart failure contributes to dysfunctional lipid trafficking and lipotoxicity. Acyl coenzyme A synthetase-1 (ACSL1) facilitates long-chain fatty acid (LCFA) uptake and activation with coenzyme A (CoA), mediating the ...

Acylation of monolysocardiolipin in rat heart

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1999
Cardiolipin is a major mitochondrial membrane glycerophospholipid in the mammalian heart. In this study, the ability of the isolated intact rat heart to remodel cardiolipin and the mitochondrial enzyme activities that reacylate monolysocardiolipin to ...

A universal pocket in fatty acyl-AMP ligases ensures redirection of fatty acid pool away from coenzyme A-based activation

open access: yeseLife, 2021
Fatty acyl-AMP ligases (FAALs) channelize fatty acids towards biosynthesis of virulent lipids in mycobacteria and other pharmaceutically or ecologically important polyketides and lipopeptides in other microbes.

Characterization of a Bifunctional Archaeal Acyl Coenzyme A Carboxylase [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Bacteriology, 2003
ABSTRACT Acyl coenzyme A carboxylase (acyl-CoA carboxylase) was purified from Acidianus brierleyi . The purified enzyme showed a unique subunit structure (three subunits with apparent molecular masses of 62, 59, and 20 kDa) and a molecular mass of approximately 540 kDa, indicating an α 4

Biocatalytic Synthesis of Stereospecific Triketide Lactones using Polyketide Synthases [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Polyketide synthases are modular enzymes that create and modify large acyl chains. The domains and modules of polyketide synthases allow us to create molecules that resemble naturally occurring products by applying a biocatalytic in vitro in vivo ...

Purification and Characterization of a Novel Pumpkin Short-Chain Acyl-Coenzyme A Oxidase with Structural Similarity to Acyl-Coenzyme A Dehydrogenases [PDF]

open access: yesPlant Physiology, 2000
Abstract A novel pumpkin (Cucurbita  pepo) short-chain acyl-coenzyme A (CoA) oxidase (ACOX) was purified to homogeneity by hydrophobic-interaction, hydroxyapatite, affinity, and anion-exchange chromatography. The purified enzyme is a tetrameric protein, consisting of apparently identical 47-kD subunits.

A minimal biochemical route towards de novo formation of synthetic phospholipid membranes. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
All living cells consist of membrane compartments, which are mainly composed of phospholipids. Phospholipid synthesis is catalyzed by membrane-bound enzymes, which themselves require pre-existing membranes for function.

Characterization of the mycobacterial acyl-CoA carboxylase holo complexes reveals their functional expansion into amino acid catabolism.

open access: yesPLoS Pathogens, 2015
Biotin-mediated carboxylation of short-chain fatty acid coenzyme A esters is a key step in lipid biosynthesis that is carried out by multienzyme complexes to extend fatty acids by one methylene group.
