Acyl Coenzyme A Synthetase Regulation: Putative Role in Long‐Chain Acyl Coenzyme A Partitioning [PDF]

open access: yesObesity Research, 2004
AbstractObjective: Long‐chain acyl coenzyme A synthetase (ACSL) converts free fatty acids (FFAs) into their metabolizable long‐chain acyl coenzyme A (LC‐CoA) derivatives that are essential for FFA conversion to CO2, triglycerides, or complex lipids. ACSL‐1 is highly expressed in adipose tissue with broad substrate specificity.

Green butyryl-coenzyme A dehydrogenase. An enzyme–acyl-coenzyme A complex [PDF]

open access: yesBiochemical Journal, 1971
1. Butyryl-CoA dehydrogenase from Peptostreptococcus elsdenii forms very tightly bound complexes with various acyl-CoA compounds. Spectra in some cases merely show resolution of the 450nm band, but those with acetoacetyl-, pent-2-enoyl- and 4-methylpent-2-enoyl-CoA show long-wavelength bands similar to the 710nm band of native enzyme.

The pathophysiology of leg cramping during dialysis and the use of carnitine in its treatment

open access: yesPhysiological Reports, 2021
Leg cramping is a common side effect of hemodialysis, and this is frequently treated by the administration of carnitine, but this is not effective in every patient. Alkalosis is a key component of the etiology of leg cramping during hemodialysis sessions.

Metabolic and psychiatric effects of acyl coenzyme A binding protein (ACBP)/diazepam binding inhibitor (DBI)

open access: yesCell Death and Disease, 2020
Acyl coenzyme A binding protein (ACBP), also known as diazepam binding inhibitor (DBI) is a multifunctional protein with an intracellular action (as ACBP), as well as with an extracellular role (as DBI). The plasma levels of soluble ACBP/DBI are elevated

A Mesorhizobium japonicum quorum sensing circuit that involves three linked genes and an unusual acyl-homoserine lactone signal

open access: yesmBio, 2023
Members of the genus Mesorhizobium, which are core components of the rhizosphere and specific symbionts of legume plants, possess genes for acyl-homoserine lactone (AHL) quorum sensing (QS).

Short-chain acyl-coenzyme A dehydrogenase deficiency [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular Genetics and Metabolism, 2008
Short-chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase deficiency (SCADD) is a disorder of mitochondrial fatty acid oxidation that leads to the accumulation of butyrylcarnitine and ethylmalonic acid in blood and urine. Originally described with a relatively severe phenotype, most patients are now diagnosed through newborn screening by tandem mass spectrometry and remain ...

Emergence of highly profibrotic and proinflammatory Lrat+Fbln2+ HSC subpopulation in alcoholic hepatitis

open access: yesHepatology, EarlyView., 2022
Lrat+ quiescent hepatic stellate cells (qHSC) give rise to Lrat+Fbln2+ activated HSC (aHSC) in alcohol‐associated hepatitis and this subpopulation is highly profibrotic, inflammatory, and immunoregulatory based on their single cell transcriptomic profile. Abstract Background and Aims Relative roles of HSCs and portal fibroblasts in alcoholic hepatitis (

Acyl‐coenzyme A organizes laterally in membranes and is recognized specifically by acyl‐coenzyme A binding protein [PDF]

open access: yesFEBS Letters, 2003
Long chain acyl‐coenzyme A (acyl‐CoA) is a biochemically important amphiphilic molecule that is known to partition strongly into membranes by insertion of the acyl chain. At present, microscopically resolved evidence is lacking on how acyl‐CoA influences and organizes laterally in membranes. By atomic force microscopy (AFM) imaging of membranes exposed

The Structural Basis of Coenzyme A Recycling in a Bacterial Organelle. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Bacterial Microcompartments (BMCs) are proteinaceous organelles that encapsulate critical segments of autotrophic and heterotrophic metabolic pathways; they are functionally diverse and are found across 23 different phyla. The majority of catabolic BMCs (

Involvement of ACSL in local synthesis of neutral lipids in cytoplasmic lipid droplets in human hepatocyte HuH7

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2007
Lipid droplets (LDs) function as intracellular storage depots of neutral lipids. Recently, we identified long-chain acyl-coenzyme A synthetase 3 (ACSL3) as a major LD-associated protein in the human hepatocyte cell line HuH7.
