Abstract
Heart and liver mitochondrial, as well as liver peroxisomal, carnitine acetyltransferase was purified to apparent homogeneity and some properties, primarily of heart mitochondrial carnitine acetyltransferase, were determined. Hill coefficients for propionyl-CoA are 1.0 for each of the enzymes. The molecular weight of heart mitochondrial carnitine acetyltransferase, determined by SDS-PAGE, is 62,000. It is monomeric in the presence of catalytic amounts of substrate. Polyclonal antibodies against purified rat liver peroxisomal carnitine acetyltransferase precipitate liver and heart mitochondrial and liver peroxisomal carnitine acetyltransferase, but not liver peroxisomal carnitine octanoyltransferase. Liver peroxisomes, mitochondria, and microsomes and heart mitochondria all give multiple bands on Western blotting with the antibody against carnitine acetyltransferase. Major protein bands occur at the molecular weight of carnitine acetyltransferase and at 33 to 35 kDa.

Abstract
The data presented herein show that both rough and smooth endoplasmic reticulum contain a medium-chain/long-chain carnitine acyltransferase, designated as COT, that is strongly inhibited by malonyl-CoA. The average percentage inhibition by 17 microM malonyl-CoA for 25 preparations is 87.4 +/- 11.7, with nine preparations showing 100% inhibition; the concentrations of decanoyl-CoA and L-carnitine were 17 microM and 1.7 mM, respectively. The concentration of malonyl-CoA required for 50% inhibition is 5.3 microM. The microsomal medium-chain/long-chain carnitine acyltransferase is also strongly inhibited by etomoxiryl-CoA, with 0.6 microM etomoxiryl-CoA producing 50% inhibition. Although palmitoyl-CoA is a substrate at low concentrations, the enzyme is strongly inhibited by high concentrations of palmitoyl-CoA; 50% inhibition is produced by 11 microM palmitoyl-CoA. The microsomal medium-chain/long-chain carnitine acyltransferase is stable to freezing at -70 degrees C, but it is labile in Triton X-100 and octylglucoside. The inhibition by palmitoyl-CoA and the approximate 200-fold higher I50 for etomoxiryl-CoA clearly distinguish this enzyme from the outer form of mitochondrial carnitine palmitoyltransferase. The microsomal medium-chain/long-chain carnitine acyltransferase is not inhibited by antibody prepared against mitochondrial carnitine palmitoyltransferase, and it is only slightly inhibited by antibody prepared against peroxisomal carnitine octanoyltransferase. When purified peroxisomal enzyme is mixed with equal amounts of microsomal activity and the mixture is incubated with the antibody prepared against the peroxisomal enzyme, the amount of carnitine octanoyltransferase precipitated is equal to all of the peroxisomal carnitine octanoyltransferase plus a small amount of the microsomal activity. This demonstrates that the microsomal enzyme is antigenically different than either of the other liver carnitine acyltransferases that show medium-chain/long-chain transferase activity. These results indicate that medium-chain and long-chain acyl-CoA conversion to acylcarnitines by microsomes in the cytosolic compartment is also modulated by malonyl-CoA.

Abstract
Carnitine acetyltransferase was purified from the supernatant obtained after centrifugation of human liver homogenate to a final specific activity of 78.75 unit.mg-1 with acetyl-CoA as a substrate. Human carnitine acetyltransferase is a monomer of 60.5 kDa with maximum activity in the presence of propionyl-CoA and a pH optimum of 8.7. Apparent Km values for acetyl-CoA are three times lower than for decanoyl-CoA. Km values for L-carnitine in the presence of acetyl-CoA are six times lower than in the presence of decanoyl-CoA. Km values for acetylcarnitine are three times lower than for octanoylcarnitine. The polyclonal antibodies against human carnitine acetyltransferase recognize a 60.5-kDa peptide in the purified preparation of human liver and brain homogenates and in immunoblots of mitochondrial and peroxisomal fractions from human liver. Immunoprecipitation and SDS/PAGE analysis of 35S-labelled proteins produced by human fibroblasts indicate that mitochondrial carnitine acetyltransferase is synthesized as a precursor of 65 kDa. We also purified carnitine acetyltransferase from the pellet obtained after centrifugation of liver homogenate. The pellet was extracted by sonication in the presence of 0.5% Tween 20. The chromatographic procedures for the purification and the kinetic, physical and immunological properties of pellet-extracted carnitine acetyltransferase are similar to those of carnitine acetyltransferase purified from the supernatant of human liver homogenate.

Abstract
Carnitine acetyltransferase was purified from the cytoplasmic fraction of Candida tropicalis grown on alkanes in continuous culture. By ion-exchange chromatography the enzyme was resolved in two fractions with the same specific activity of 80 U/mg. The molecular mass of both enzyme forms, determined by non-denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis, was 540 kDa. After SDS electrophoresis only one band of 64 kDa was detected indicating that both enzymes are oligomers each containing eight subunits. Isoelectric focusing in agarose under non-denaturing conditions demonstrated the presence of at least four different charged species in the pH range between 5.6 and 6.7. After isoelectric focusing in 9 M urea/1% Nonidet P-40 gels, both enzyme forms were resolved into four bands. Peptide mapping, performed by cyanogen bromide cleavage of polypeptides separated by denaturing isoelectric focusing followed by second-dimension SDS electrophoresis, revealed a very high degree of homology between these polypeptides. The presence of the octameric form of carnitine acetyltransferase already in the starting material was demonstrated by non-denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis and immunoblotting. Antibodies against carnitine acetyltransferase from C. tropicalis ATCC 32113 formed precipitation lines with extracts from several Candida species but not with extracts of Candida utilis, Candida ethanothermophilum and an another strain of C. tropicalis.

Abstract
Peroxisomal carnitine palmitoyltransferase was purified by solubilization using Tween 20 and KCl from the large granule fraction of the liver of clofibrate-treated chick embryo, DEAE-Sephacel and blue Sepharose CL-6B column chromatography. The peroxisomal carnitine palmitoyltransferase was an Mr 64,000 polypeptide; the mitochondrial carnitine palmitoyltransferase had a subunit molecular weight of 69,000 on sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The carnitine acetyltransferase was an Mr 64,000 polypeptide. Antibody against purified peroxisomal carnitine palmitoyltransferase reacted only with peroxisomal carnitine palmitoyltransferase, but not with mitochondrial carnitine palmitoyltransferase or carnitine acetyltransferase. In addition, anti-peroxisomal carnitine palmitoyltransferase reacted only with the protein in peroxisomes purified from chick embryo liver by sucrose density gradient centrifugation. Thus, it was confirmed that purified peroxisomal carnitine palmitoyltransferase was a peroxisomal protein. Compared with mitochondrial carnitine palmitoyltransferase, peroxisomal carnitine palmitoyltransferase was extremely resistant to inactivation by trypsin. The pH optimum of peroxisomal carnitine palmitoyltransferase was 8.5, differing from that of mitochondrial carnitine palmitoyltransferase. The Km value of peroxisomal carnitine palmitoyltransferase for palmitoyl-CoA (32 microM) was similar to that of the mitochondrial one, whereas those values for L-carnitine (140 microM), palmitoyl-L-carnitine (43 microM) and CoA (9 microM) were lower than those of mitochondrial carnitine palmitoyltransferase. Peroxisomal carnitine palmitoyltransferase exhibited similar substrate specificities in both the forward and reverse reactions, with the highest activity toward lauroyl derivatives. Furthermore, this enzyme showed relatively high affinities for long-chain acyl derivatives (C10-C16) and similar Km values (30-50 microM) for acyl-CoAs, acylcarnitine and CoA, and a constant Km value (approximately 150 microM) for carnitine. These results indicate that peroxisomal carnitine palmitoyltransferase played a role in the modulation of the intracellular CoA/long-chain acyl-CoA ratio at the hatching stage of chicken when long-chain fatty acids are actively oxidized in peroxisomes.

Abstract
The effect of the heavy metal toxicants HgCl2, CH3HgCl, and CdCl2 on the acetylating activity of membranous carnitine acetyltransferase (CarAc) in membrane vesicles from the maternal surface of human placental syncytiotrophoblast has been investigated. CarAc was inhibited by inorganic and organic mercury and cadmium. Carnitine acetylation was inhibited by as little as 5 microM mercury, with complete inhibition at 50 microM inorganic and organic mercury. Inhibition by cadmium was incomplete (less than 60%) at 500 microM CdCl2. Kinetic studies using Hanes plots revealed a mixed type of inhibition of CarAc by the metals. Cysteine preincubation decreased the amount of inhibition of CarAc by the metals. These results indicate that the inhibition of CarAc by heavy metals occurs by binding of the sulfhydryl on the enzyme by the metals. This interaction may be a mechanism of the heavy metal-induced fetotoxicity.

Abstract
Data obtained in earlier studies with rats fed diets containing high doses of peroxisome proliferators (niadenate, tiadenol, clofibrate, or nitotinic acid) are used to look for a quantitative relationship between peroxisomal beta-oxidation, palmitoyl-CoA hydrolase, palmitoyl-CoA synthetase and carnitine palmitoyltransferase activities, and the cellular concentration of their substrate and reaction products. The order of the hyperlipidemic drugs with regard to their effect on CoA derivatives and enzyme activities was niadenate greater than tiadenol greater than clofibrate greater than nicotinic acid. Linear regression analysis of long-chain acyl-CoA content versus palmitoyl-CoA hydrolase and peroxisomal beta-oxidation activity showed highly significant linear correlations both in the total liver homogenate and in the peroxisome-enriched fractions. A dose-response curve of tiadenol showed that carnitine palmitoyltransferase and palmitoyl-CoA synthetase activities and the ratio of long-chain acyl-CoA to free CoASH in total homogenate rose at low doses before detectable changes occurred in the peroxisomal beta-oxidation and palmitoyl-CoA hydrolase activity. A plot of this ratio parallelled the palmitoyl-CoA synthetase activity. The specific activity of microsomally localized carnitine palmitoyl-transferase was low and unchanged up to a dose where no enhanced peroxisomal beta-oxidation was observed, but over this dose the activity increased considerably so that the specific of the enzyme in the mitochondrial and microsomal fractions became comparable. The mitochondrial palmitoyl-CoA synthetase activity decreased gradually. The correlations may be interpreted as reflecting a common regulation mechanism for palmitoyl-CoA hydrolase and peroxisomal beta-oxidation enzymes, i.e., the cellular level of long-chain acyl-CoA acting as the metabolic message for peroxisomal proliferation resulting in induction of peroxisomal beta-oxidation and palmitoyl-CoA hydrolase activity. The findings are discussed with regard to their possible consequences for mitochondrial fatty acid oxidation and the conversion of long-chain acyl-L-carnitine to acyl-CoA derivatives.

Abstract
Properties of peroxisomal and mitochondrial carnitine acetyltransferases purified from an alkane-grown yeast, Candida tropicalis, were compared each other. The molecular weight of both enzymes was estimated to be about 420 000 by analytical ultracentrifugation and gel filtration chromatography with Sepharose 6B. However, each enzyme gave two subunits on the polyacrylamide slab gel electrophoresis in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulfate: the peroxisomal enzyme (64 000 and 57 000) and the mitochondrial enzyme (64 000 and 52 000). The subcellularly distinct enzymes gave a similar amino acid composition except for the contents of some amino acids: glycine, valine, glutamic acid and aspartic acid. Their isoelectric point was somewhat different: 5.11 for the peroxisomal enzyme and 5.22 for the mitochondrial enzyme. Both enzymes had the same amino-terminal residue (glutamic acid or glutamine) and the heat stability, and was indistinguishable immunochemically. These results suggest that peroxisomal and mitochondrial carnitine acetyltransferases of C. tropicalis cells may be products of the same nuclear gene. Differences in the molecular weight of the subunits of the enzymes would result from modification or processing of the common protein in the step of distribution to the respective organelles, that is, so-called post-translational modification.

Abstract
Carnitine octanoyltransferase (COT) in 500g supernatant fluids from mouse liver has a specific activity at least twice that of carnitine acetyltransferase (CAT) or carnitine palmitoyltransferase (CPT). When mice are fed diets containing the lipid-lowering drugs, clofibrate or nafenopin, the specific activity of COT increases 4- and 11-fold, respectively. Liver homogenates from mice fed a control diet, and diets containing clofibrate, nafenopin, or Wy-14,643 were fractionated by sucrose gradient centrifugation, and the subcellular distribution of carnitine acyltransferases was determined. In the controls, peroxisomes contained about 70% of the total COT. The specific activity of COT in the peroxisomal peak was 12-fold greater than either CAT or CPT, and 20-fold greater than the COT activity in the mitochondrial fraction. Treatment with hypolipidemic drugs increased the specific activity of peroxisomal COT 2- to 3-fold and CAT 6- to 12-fold, while mitochondrial COT increased 5- to 11-fold and CAT 19- to 54-fold. COT was purified to homogeneity from livers of mice treated with Wy-14,643. It had an apparent Mr of 60,000 by Sephadex G-100 and sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS)-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, and a maximum activity for octanoyl-CoA with acetyl-CoA and palmitoyl-CoA having activities of 2 and 10%, respectively, when 100 microM acyl-CoA substrates were used. The Km's for 1-carnitine, octanoyl-CoA, palmitoyl-CoA, and acetyl-CoA were 130, 15, 69, and 155 microM, respectively, in the forward direction; and in the reverse direction were 110, 100, 104, and 783 microM for CoASH, octanoylcarnitine, palmitoylcarnitine, and acetylcarnitine, respectively. With Vmax conditions, acetyl-CoA and palmitoyl-CoA had activities of 8 and 26% of the activity for octanoyl-CoA, and acetylcarnitine and palmitoylcarnitine had activities of 7 and 22%, respectively, of the activity for octanoylcarnitine. It is concluded that COT is a separate enzyme present in large amounts in the matrix of mouse liver peroxisomes, with kinetic properties that greatly favor medium-chain acylcarnitine formation.

Abstract
The location of carnitine acetyltransferase and carnitine octanoyltransferase on the inner and outer surfaces of rat liver microsomes was investigated. Latency of mannose-6-phosphate phosphate showed that the microsomes were 90-94% sealed. All of the octanoyltransferase is associated with the cytosolic face, while the acetyltransferase is distributed between the cytosolic face (68-73%) and the lumen face (27-32%) of the endoplasmic reticulum membrane. Small amounts of trypsin inhibit the carnitine octanoyltransferase equally in either sealed or permeable microsomes but the acetyltransferase of sealed microsomes is stimulated. Large amounts of trypsin inhibit all transferase activities by about 60%, expect for acetyltransferase of sealed microsomes. Other studies show that 0.1% Triton X-100 partially inhibits carnitine octanoyltransferase of microsomes but does not inhibit the acetyltransferase or any of the mitochondrial carnitine acyltransferase.

Abstract
Two types of carnitine acetyltransferases (EC 2.3.1.7) were first isolated from a microorganism, alkane-grown yeast Candida tropicalis. Carnitine acetyltransferase activity was induced in the alkane-grown cells, reaching about twenty times higher than that in the glucose-grown cells. Localization of the enzyme activity was demonstrated, at least, in peroxisomes (microbodies), profusely occurred in the alkane-grown cells, and in mitochondria. Peroxisomal and mitochondrial carnitine acetyltransferases could be separated using the method of DEAE-Sephacel column chromatography and both types were found to exist in the alkane-grown cells of C. tropicalis. Each carnitine acetyltransferase was purified using Sephadex G-200, Sepharose 6B, DEAE-Sephacel and Blue-Sepharose CL-6B. In DEAE-Sephacel chromatography, peroxisomal carnitine acetyltransferase was eluted below 0.15 M KCl concentration and mitochondrial carnitine acetyltransferase above 0.15 M KCl concentration. Except for the localization, little difference was observed in their kinetic properties, substrate specificity and so on. These two carnitine acetyltransferase preparations were only specific to acetyl and propionyl groups, the substrate specificity not being so broad as that of carnitine acetyltransferase obtained from mammalian tissues. Roles of these carnitine acetyltransferases in alkane metabolism in yeast are also discussed.

Abstract
The presence of carnitine acetyl transferase (E.C.2.3.1.7) activity has been found for the first time in human platelets. The enzymic activity was measured by a radiometric method based on the separation of labelled acetylcarnitine and carnitine on a cation exchange column. Carnitine acetyl transferase activity closely paralleled the activity distribution of the mitochondrial marker carnitine palmitoyl-transferase. Contrary to the marker enzyme, human platelet carnitine acetyl-transferase is rather thermosensitive: 60% of its activity is lost after 10 min when kept at 37 degree C.
