Arachidonoyl-CoA synthetase. Separation from nonspecific acyl-CoA synthetase and distribution in various cells and tissues.
Arachidonoyl-CoA synthetase was solubilized from a particulate fraction of calf brain and human platelets using 1% Nonidet P-40 and 10 mM EDTA. Arachidonoyl-CoA synthetase from both preparations was separated from nonspecific (long chain) acyl-CoA synthetase (EC 6.2.1.3) by chromatography on hydroxylapatite. To further substantiate that the two acyl-CoA synthetases are distinct proteins, we sol...
متن کاملAcyl-CoA Synthetase Is Located in the Outer Membrane and Acyl-CoA Thioesterase in the Inner Membrane of Pea Chloroplast Envelopes.
Both acyl-CoA synthetase and acyl-CoA thioesterase activities are present in chloroplast envelope membranes. The functions of these enzymes in lipid metabolism remains unresolved, although the synthetase has been proposed to be involved in either plastid galactolipid synthesis or the export of plastid-synthesized fatty acids to the cytoplasm. We have examined the locations of both enzymes withi...
متن کاملCharacterization of an acyl-CoA synthetase from Arabidopsis thaliana.
One of the major goals of modern plant biotechnology is to manipulate lipid metabolism in oilseed crops to produce new and improved edible and industrial vegetable oils. Lipids constitute the structural components of cellular membranes and act as sources of energy for the germinating seed and are therefore essential to plant cell function. Both de novo synthesis and modification of existing lip...
متن کاملTransverse-plane topography of long-chain acyl-CoA synthetase in the mitochondrial outer membrane.
Transverse-plane topography of mitochondrial outer-membrane long-chain acyl-CoA synthetase was investigated using proteases as probes for exposure of crucial domains, i.e. domains containing the active site or otherwise required for enzymatic activity. Incubation of intact mitochondria with the nonspecific proteases proteinase K and subtilisin resulted in a time-dependent loss of 90% or more of...
متن کاملPhosphorylation and Acetylation of Acyl-CoA Synthetase- I.
Long chain acyl-CoA synthetase 1 (ACSL1) contributes 50 to 90% of total ACSL activity in liver, adipose tissue, and heart and appears to direct the use of long chain fatty acids for energy. Although the functional importance of ACSL1 is becoming clear, little is understood about its post-translational regulation. In order to investigate the post-translational modifications of ACSL1 under differ...
