The acyl-CoA synthetase "bubblegum" (lipidosin): further characterization and role in neuronal fatty acid beta-oxidation..
Acyl-CoA synthetases play a pivotal role in fatty acid metabolism, providing activated substrates for fatty acid catabolic and anabolic pathways. Acyl-CoA synthetases comprise numerous proteins with diverse substrate specificities, tissue expression patterns, and subcellular localizations, suggesting that each enzyme directs fatty acids toward a specific metabolic fate. We reported that hBG1, t...
متن کاملMurine bubblegum orthologue is a microsomal very long-chain acyl-CoA synthetase.
It has been suggested that a gene termed bubblegum (Bgm), encoding an acyl-CoA synthetase, could be involved in the pathogenesis of the inherited neurodegenerative disorder X-ALD (X-linked adrenoleukodystrophy). The precise function of the ALDP (ALD protein) still remains unclear. Aldp deficiency in mammals and Bgm deficiency in Drosophila led to accumulation of VLCFAs (very long-chain fatty ac...
متن کاملArachidonoyl-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 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 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...
