Structure and regulation of rat long-chain acyl-CoA synthetase.
Complementary DNAs encoding rat long-chain acyl-CoA synthetase have been isolated. The cDNAs were identified using synthetic oligonucleotide probes based on partial amino acid sequences of lysyl endopeptidase peptides of the purified enzyme. Rat long-chain acyl-CoA synthetase is predicted to contain 699 amino acid residues and to have a calculated molecular weight of 78,177. Significant sequenc...
متن کاملFATP2 is a hepatic fatty acid transporter and peroxisomal very long-chain acyl-CoA synthetase.
Fatty acid transport protein (FATP)2, a member of the FATP family of fatty acid uptake mediators, has independently been identified as a hepatic peroxisomal very long-chain acyl-CoA synthetase (VLACS). Here we address whether FATP2 is 1) a peroxisomal enzyme, 2) a plasma membrane-associated long-chain fatty acid (LCFA) transporter, or 3) a multifunctional protein. We found that, in mouse livers...
متن کاملPhytanic acid activation in rat liver peroxisomes is catalyzed by long-chain acyl-CoA synthetase.
In Refsum disease, disorders of peroxisome biogenesis, and rhizomelic chondrodysplasia punctata, pathological accumulation of phytanic acid results from impaired alpha-oxidation of this branched-chain fatty acid. Previous studies from this laboratory indicated that activation of phytanic acid to its CoA derivative precedes its alpha-oxidation in peroxisomes. It was reported that this reaction i...
متن کاملLong-chain acyl-CoA synthetase 4 modulates prostaglandin E₂ release from human arterial smooth muscle cells.
Long-chain acyl-CoA synthetases (ACSLs) catalyze the thioesterification of long-chain FAs into their acyl-CoA derivatives. Purified ACSL4 is an arachidonic acid (20:4)-preferring ACSL isoform, and ACSL4 is therefore a probable regulator of lipid mediator production in intact cells. Eicosanoids play important roles in vascular homeostasis and disease, yet the role of ACSL4 in vascular cells is l...
متن کاملVery Long-Chain Acyl-CoA Synthetase 3: Overexpression and Growth Dependence in Lung Cancer
Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer deaths worldwide. In the United States, only one in six lung cancer patients survives five years after diagnosis. These statistics may improve if new therapeutic targets are identified. We previously reported that an enzyme of fatty acid metabolism, very long-chain acyl-CoA synthetase 3 (ACSVL3), is overexpressed in malignant glioma, and that depleting...
