To examine the mechanism by which fish oil protects against fat-induced insulin resistance, we studied the effects of control, fish oil, and safflower oil diets on peroxisomal content, fatty acyl-CoA, diacylglycerol, and ceramide content in rat liver and muscle. We found that, in contrast to control and safflower oil-fed rats, fish oil feeding induced a 150% increase in the abundance of peroxis...
Several 3-keto-synthases have been studied, including the soluble fatty acid synthases, those involved in polyketide synthesis, and the FAE1-like 3-ketoacyl-CoA synthases. All of these condensing enzymes have a common ancestor and an enzymatic mechanism that involves a catalytic triad consisting of Cys, His, and His/Asn. In contrast to the FAE1-like family of enzymes that mediate plant microsom...
The location of acetoacetyl-CoA thiolase (T-I) and 3-ketoacyl-CoA thiolase (T-III), enzymes of the fatty acid beta-oxidation system, was studied in n-alkane-grown Candida tropicalis cells by immunoelectron microscopy using a post-embedding method with colloidal gold conjugated IgG. The deposition of gold particles for T-I was detected in the microbodies and cytoplasm and that of gold particles ...
In order to determine the regulation mechanisms of ergosterol biosynthesis in yeast, we developed growth conditions leading to high or limiting ergosterol levels in wild type and sterol-auxotrophic mutant strains. An excess of sterol is obtained in anaerobic sterol-supplemented cultures of mutant and wild type strains. A low sterol level is obtained in aerobic growth conditions in mutant strain...
Polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB) synthase catalyzes the polymerization of (R)-3-hydroxybutyryl-CoA (CoA = coenzyme A) into high molecular weight PHB. Recombinant wild-type (wt) class III synthase from Allochromatium vinosum (PhaCPhaE(Av)), antibodies to this synthase and to PHB, and [(14)C]hydroxybutyryl-CoA (HB-CoA) have been used to detect oligomeric hydroxybutyrate (HB) units covalently bound to th...

Acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACC; EC 6.4.1.2) catalyses the formation of malonyl-CoA, which is essential as a metabolic substrate and as a modulator of specific protein activity. Malonyl-CoA is a substrate for fatty acid synthase (FAS), for polyketide synthases (in plants, fungi and bacteria) and for fatty acyl chain-elongation systems. As an allosteric modulator, malonyl-CoA potently inhibits carni...
Dietary vegetable oils and fish oils rich in PUFA (polyunsaturated fatty acids) exert hypocholesterolaemic and hypotriglyceridaemic effects in rodents. The plasma cholesterol-lowering properties of PUFA are due partly to a diminution of cholesterol synthesis and of the activity of the rate-limiting enzyme HMG-CoA reductase (3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-CoA reductase). To better understand the mec...
The pimeloyl-CoA synthase from Bacillus sphaericus has been purified to homogeneity from an overproducing strain of Escherichia coli. The purification yielded milligram quantities of the synthase with a specific activity of 1 unit/mg of protein. Analysis of the products showed that this enzyme catalysed the transformation of pimelate into pimeloyl-CoA with concomitant hydrolysis of ATP to AMP. ...
Phenotypic screens for bactericidal compounds are starting to yield promising hits against tuberculosis. In this regard, whole-genome sequencing of spontaneous resistant mutants generated against an indazole sulfonamide (GSK3011724A) identifies several specific single-nucleotide polymorphisms in the essential Mycobacterium tuberculosis β-ketoacyl synthase (kas) A gene. Here, this genomic-based ...
