Immunodepletion experiments suggest that acyl-coenzyme A:cholesterol acyltransferase-1 (ACAT-1) protein plays a major catalytic role in adult human liver, adrenal gland, macrophages, and kidney, but not in intestines

Journal of Lipid Research, 1998
The first acyl-coenzyme A:cholesterol acyltransferase (ACAT) cDNA cloned and expressed in 1993 is designated as ACAT-1. In various human tissue homogenates, ACAT-1 protein is effectively solubilized with retention of enzymatic activity by the detergent ...

RICE ACYL-COA-BINDING PROTEIN6 Affects Acyl-CoA Homeostasis and Growth in Rice

Rice, 2020
Backgrounds Acyl-coenzyme A (CoA) esters are important intermediates in lipid metabolism with regulatory properties. Acyl-CoA-binding proteins bind and transport acyl-CoAs to fulfill these functions.

Reduced Dietary Protein Induces Changes in the Dental Proteome

Journal of Experimental Zoology Part B: Molecular and Developmental Evolution, EarlyView.
Low dietary protein (10%) from normal (20%) does change protein expression in tooth proteome and alter developmental pathways. Among the significant protein expressions changes are actin‐based myosins, tooth, and bone development proteins. Perplexingly tooth size is not altered, suggesting more nuanced phenotypic response to low dietary protein in ...

A microfluorometric method for the determination of free fatty acids in plasma

Journal of Lipid Research, 1983
A rapid and precise microfluorometric method for the determination of free fatty acid concentrations in 2-5 microliters of plasma is described. The assay is performed directly on plasma, eliminating the need for extraction with organic solvents, and is ...

Structure and function of isozymes: Evolutionary aspects and role of oxygen in eucaryotic organisms [PDF]

Oxygen is not only one of the most abundant elements on the Earth, but it is also one of the most important elements for life. In terms of composition, the feature of the atmosphere that most distinguishes Earth from other planets is the presence of ...

RNAase III-Type Enzyme Dicer Regulates Mitochondrial Fatty Acid Oxidative Metabolism in Cardiac Mesenchymal Stem Cells [PDF]

, 2019
Cardiac mesenchymal stem cells (C-MSC) play a key role in maintaining normal cardiac function under physiological and pathological conditions. Glycolysis and mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation predominately account for energy production in C-MSC ...

Uncovering the Complexity of Synucleinopathies: An Ongoing Tale Between Proteins and Lipids

Movement Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Neurodegenerative diseases are pathological states characterized by progressive alterations in brain homeostasis during aging. Synucleinopathies, including Parkinson's disease and dementia with Lewy bodies, are defined neuropathologically by the accumulation of inclusions known as Lewy bodies and Lewy neurites.

Physiological Role of Acyl Coenzyme A Synthetase Homologs in Lipid Metabolism in Neurospora crassa

Eukaryotic Cell, 2013
Acyl coenzyme A (CoA) synthetase (ACS) enzymes catalyze the activation of free fatty acids (FAs) to CoA esters by a two-step thioesterification reaction. Activated FAs participate in a variety of anabolic and catabolic lipid metabolic pathways, including

Proteome Analysis of Corynebacterium diphtheriae–Macrophage Interaction

PROTEOMICS, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Contact of Corynebacterium diphtheriae with macrophages induces adaptations on both bacterial and cellular sides. The study presented here was aiming to shed light on the simultaneous intracellular adaptation of the bacteria and changes in the proteome of the phagocytes in response to the internalization of C. diphtheriae.
