Potential in Acylation

Acylation Stimulating Protein: A Potential Regulator of Fat Synthesis

Acylation of aspartate aminotransferase.

1. Acetylation of aspartate aminotransferase from pig heart inhibits completely the enzymic activity when the coenzyme is in the amino form (pyridoxamine phosphate) or when the coenzyme has been removed, but not when the coenzyme is in the aldehyde form (pyridoxal phosphate). 2. The group the acylation of which is responsible for the inhibition has been identified with the in-amino group of a l...

Acylation of monolysocardiolipin in rat heart.

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 cardiolipin in vitro were characterized. Adult rat heart cardiolipin was found to contain primarily linoleic and oleic acids. Perfusion of the iso...

In vitro acylation of the transferrin receptor.

In vitro fatty acylation of the transferrin receptor with [3H]tetradecanoate or [3H]tetradecanoyl-CoA has been demonstrated for isolated sheep reticulocyte plasma membranes. Although less than 5% of the receptor was labeled in vitro, the acylated protein could be readily observed after sodium dodecyl sulfate-gel electrophoresis. The acylated transferrin receptor in the reticulocyte membrane was...
