Regulation of pyruvate carboxylase in 3T3-L1 cells.
When 3T3-L1 fibroblasts differentiate to adipocytes, the specific activity of pyruvate carboxylase (PC) increases about 25-fold in parallel with its intracellular protein concentration. The increase in PC protein concentration is accompanied by a 9-10-fold increase in the relative abundance of 4.2 kb PC mRNA measured by Northern-blot analysis using a cDNA probe encoding a segment of the PC gene...
متن کاملInhibition of pyruvate carboxylase degradation and total protein breakdown by lysosomotropic agents in 3T3-L1 cells.
1. Exposure to [3H]biotin during the differentiation of 3T3-L1 cells to adipocytes selectively labelled pyruvate carboxylase (EC 6.4.1.1). A subsequent incubation of labelled cells permitted the measurement of the degradation rate constant of this mitochondrial enzyme. 2. In medium without serum, pyruvate carboxylase was degraded with a half-life of 64 h, considerably longer than that found for...
متن کاملRegulation of adipocyte differentiation of 3T3-L1 cells by PDZRN3.
PDZRN3, a member of the PDZRN (or LNX) family of proteins, is essential for the differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells into myotubes, but it plays an inhibitory role in the differentiation of these cells into osteoblasts. Given that mesenchymal stem cells also differentiate into adipocytes, we examined the possible role of PDZRN3 in adipogenesis in mouse 3T3-L1 preadipocytes. The expression ...
متن کاملStructure, function and regulation of pyruvate carboxylase.
Pyruvate carboxylase (PC; EC 6.4.1.1), a member of the biotin-dependent enzyme family, catalyses the ATP-dependent carboxylation of pyruvate to oxaloacetate. PC has been found in a wide variety of prokaryotes and eukaryotes. In mammals, PC plays a crucial role in gluconeogenesis and lipogenesis, in the biosynthesis of neurotransmitter substances, and in glucose-induced insulin secretion by panc...
متن کاملStructure, mechanism and regulation of pyruvate carboxylase.
PC (pyruvate carboxylase) is a biotin-containing enzyme that catalyses the HCO(3)(-)- and MgATP-dependent carboxylation of pyruvate to form oxaloacetate. This is a very important anaplerotic reaction, replenishing oxaloacetate withdrawn from the tricarboxylic acid cycle for various pivotal biochemical pathways. PC is therefore considered as an enzyme that is crucial for intermediary metabolism,...
