Neutral lipid accumulation in yeast due to inositol deficiency: kinetic studies on the reciprocal regulation by fructose bisphosphate and citrate of yeast acetyl CoA carboxylase.

چکیده
Neutral lipids, especially triacylglycerols, accumulated due to myo-inositol deficiency both in the cells of Saccharomyces carlsbergensis (Hayashi et al. (1976) J. Biol. Chem., 251, 5759--5769) and in the liver of the rat (Hayashi et al. (1974) Biochim. Biophys. Acta, 360, 134--155). The accumulation of triacylglycerols in the deficient yeast resulted, at least partly, from an enhancement of acetyl CoA carboxylase activity. The activation of the enzyme reflected the fluctuation due to the deficiency in the levels of fructose bisphosphate and citrate (Hayashi et al. (1978) Biochim. Biophys. Acta, 540, 231--237). Thus, the kinetics of the regulation of acetyl CoA carboxylase by these intermediates was studied. In physiological concentrations fructose bisphosphate sigmoidally activated acetyl CoA carboxylase from yeast with the Hill coefficient of 3, while citrate counteracted the fructose bisphosphate activation in a sigmoidal manner with the Hill coefficient of 2. Fructose bisphosphate markedly increased the apparent Vmax value of acetyl CoA carboxylase for the substrate, ATP and slightly decreased the apparent Km value. Citrate greatly decreased the apparent Vmax value increased by fructose bisphosphate.

The abnormal accumulation of lipids due to myo-inositol deficiency in Saccharomyces carlsbergensis, and the mechanism involved was investigated. The deficient cells contained much more neutral lipids with a greater ratio of unsaturated fatty acids compared to the supplemented cells, whereas there was no significant change in their phospholipid contents. The biosynthesis of fatty acids and stero...

متن کاملControl of fatty-acid biosynthesis by long-chain acyl CoAs and by lipid membranes.
The possibility of a regulatory role of long-chain acyl-CoAs was studied in a system synthesizing palmitoyl-CoA and stearoyl-CoA in vitro. This system contained acetyl-CoA carboxylase (yeast), fatty acid synthetase (yeast) and lipid membranes as acceptors for the long-chain acyl-CoA compounds. In this system acetyl-CoA carboxylase is controlled by long-chain acyl-CoAs, whereas this is not true ...

The increase in fructose consumption is considered to be a risk factor for developing nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). We investigated the effects of docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) on hepatic lipid metabolism in fructose-treated primary mouse hepatocytes, and the changes of Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress pathways in response to DHA treatment. The hepatocytes were treated with fructose, ...

ATP:citrate lyase (ACL) catalyzes the conversion of citrate to acetyl-coenzyme A (CoA) and oxaloacetate and is a key enzyme for lipid accumulation in mammals and oleaginous yeasts and fungi. To investigate whether heterologous ACL genes can be targeted and imported into the plastids of plants, a gene encoding a fusion protein of the rat liver ACL with the transit peptide for the small subunit o...
