Objective(s):Higher cellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels is important in reducing cellular energy charge (EC) by increasing the levels of key metabolic protein, and nitrosative modifications, and have been shown to damage the cardiac tissue of diabetic mice. However, the relation between energy production and heart function is unclear. Materials and Methods:Streptozotocin (STZ, 150 mg...

The starter unit used in the biosynthesis of daunorubicin is propionyl coenzyme A (CoA) rather than acetyl-CoA, which is used in the production of most of the bacterial aromatic polyketides studied to date. In the daunorubicin biosynthesis gene cluster of Streptomyces peucetius, directly downstream of the genes encoding the beta-ketoacyl:acyl carrier protein synthase subunits, are two genes, dp...

5-Aminolevulinate synthase (ALAS) is the first enzyme of the heme biosynthetic pathway in non-plant eukaryotes and the alpha-subclass of purple bacteria. The pyridoxal 5'-phosphate cofactor at the active site undergoes changes in absorptive properties during substrate binding and catalysis that have allowed us to study the kinetics of these reactions spectroscopically. Rapid scanning stopped-fl...

PhlD, a type III polyketide synthase from Pseudomonas fluorescens, catalyzes the synthesis of phloroglucinol from three molecules of malonyl-CoA. Kinetic analysis by direct measurement of the appearance of the CoASH product (k(cat) = 24 +/- 4 min(-1) and Km = 13 +/- 1 microM) gave a k(cat) value more than an order of magnitude higher than that of any other known type III polyketide synthase. Ph...

The hindlimb-suspended rat was used as animal model to investigate the effects induced by immobilization of the skeletal muscle in the expression of the genes encoding hepatic lipogenic enzymes. Following a 14-day period of immobilization, rats were injected intraperitoneally with radioactive acetate, and the labeling of hepatic lipids and cholesterol was evaluated 15 min after the isotope inje...

We have shown that phorbol myristate acetate (PMA) enhanced A-23187-induced arachidonate release and thromboxane synthesis in human platelets (Mobley, A., and Tai, H. H. (1985) Biochem. Biophys. Res. Commun. 130, 717-723). The mechanism of enhancement by PMA was not elucidated. In the present study, we have shown that PMA-treated platelets exhibited significantly less [1-14C]arachidonate incorp...

Allochromatium vinosum polyhydroxyalkanoate synthase catalyzes formation of poly-(R)-3-hydroxybutyrate (PHB) from (R)-3-hydroxybutyryl-coenzyme A (HB-CoA). (R)-3-Hydroxybutyryl-N-acetylcysteamine (HB-NAC) is an alternative substrate for this synthase in vitro, with a turnover 1% that of HB-CoA. With HB-NAC, the molecular weight (M(w)) of PHB produced at substrate-to-enzyme ratios of 1500-15 000...

The terminal step of triacylglycerol (TAG) formation in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae is catalyzed by the enzyme acyl-CoA:diacylglycerol acyltransferase (DAGAT). In this study we demonstrate that the gene product of YOR245c, Dga1p, catalyzes a major yeast DAGAT activity which is localized to lipid particles. Enzyme measurements employing a newly established assay containing radioactively l...

In animals, liver and white adipose are the main sites for the de novo fatty acid synthesis. Deletion of fatty acid synthase or acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACC) 1 in mice resulted in embryonic lethality, indicating that the de novo fatty acid synthesis is essential for embryonic development. To understand the importance of de novo fatty acid synthesis and the role of ACC1-produced malonyl-CoA in ad...

The brain plays an important role in the regulation of energy balance in higher animals. Global energy balance is monitored by sets of neurons in the hypothalamus that respond to peripheral hormonal and afferent neural signals that sense the energy status. Malonyl-CoA, an intermediate in the biosynthesis of fatty acids, appears to function in this hypothalamic energy-sensing system. The steady-...
