Abstract
We have identified a novel omega-hydroxy-alkanedicarboxylic acid, ESP 55016, that favorably alters serum lipid variables in obese female Zucker (fa/fa) rats. ESP 55016 reduced serum non-HDL-cholesterol (non-HDL-C), triglyceride, and nonesterified fatty acid levels while increasing serum HDL-C and beta-hydroxybutyrate levels in a dose-dependent manner. ESP 55016 reduced fasting serum insulin and glucose levels while also suppressing weight gain. In primary rat hepatocytes, ESP 55016 increased the oxidation of [(14)C]palmitate in a dose- and carnitine palmitoyl transferase-I (CPT-I)-dependent manner. Furthermore, in primary rat hepatocytes and in vivo, ESP 55016 inhibited fatty acid and sterol synthesis. The "dual inhibitor" activity of ESP 55016 was unlikely attributable to the activation of the AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) pathway because AMPK and acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACC) phosphorylation states as well as ACC activity were not altered by ESP 55016. Further studies indicated the conversion of ESP 55016 to a CoA derivative in vivo. ESP 55016-CoA markedly inhibited the activity of partially purified ACC. The activity of partially purified HMG-CoA reductase was not altered by the xenobiotic-CoA. These data suggest that ESP 55016-CoA favorably alters lipid metabolism in a model of diabetic dyslipidemia in part by initially inhibiting fatty acid and sterol synthesis plus enhancing the oxidation of fatty acids through the ACC/malonyl-CoA/CPT-I regulatory axis.

Abstract
Acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACC) catalyzes the formation of malonyl-CoA, an essential substrate for fatty acid biosynthesis and a potent inhibitor of fatty acid oxidation. Here, we provide evidence that glutamate may be a physiologically relevant activator of ACC. Glutamate induced the activation of both major isoforms of ACC, prepared from rat liver, heart, or white adipose tissue. In agreement with previous studies, a type 2A protein phosphatase contributed to the effects of glutamate on ACC. However, the protein phosphatase inhibitor microcystin LR did not abolish the effects of glutamate on ACC activity. Moreover, glutamate directly activated purified preparations of ACC when protein phosphatase activity was excluded. Phosphatase-independent ACC activation by glutamate was also reflected by polymerization of the enzyme as judged by size-exclusion chromatography. The sensitivity of ACC to direct activation by glutamate was diminished by treatment in vitro with AMP-activated protein kinase or cAMP-dependent protein kinase or by beta-adrenergic stimulation of intact adipose tissue. We conclude that glutamate, an abundant intracellular amino acid, induces ACC activation through complementary actions as a phosphatase activator and as a direct allosteric ligand for dephosphorylated ACC. This study supports the general hypothesis that amino acids fulfill important roles as signal molecules as well as intermediates in carbon and nitrogen metabolism.

Abstract
The current model of the nutrient sensing mechanism in pancreatic beta-cells implies that malonyl-CoA plays a key role. According to this hypothesis, glucose activation of acetyl-CoA carboxylase triggers a rapid production of malonyl-CoA which inhibits carnitine palmitoyltransferase 1 and the importation of fatty acyl-CoA into the mitochondria for oxidation. The increase in cytosolic long chain fatty acyl-CoA leads to the exocytosis of insulin by a mechanism which has not yet been clearly defined. To obtain direct evidence that ACC plays a central role in this process, we generated stable transfectants of an insulin secreting cell line (INS-1) that express ACC specific antisense mRNA. The amounts of ACC mRNA and the protein level were specifically decreased in these stable clones compared to those of the control cells. The glucose activation of ACC in these cells was also significantly diminished. Both acute and long-term induction of insulin secretion by glucose were decreased. This decrease was inversely correlated to the levels of ACC activity in clones. In these clones, the insulin secretion induced by other nutrients, amino acids and ketocaproate, is also impaired, while the KCl-induced insulin secretion remains unchanged. Decreased ACC expression was accompanied by impaired malonyl-CoA production and elevated fatty acid oxidation. The expressions of the pancreatic specific glucokinase, glucose transporter 2 or beta-actin in these cells, as well as glucose utilisation were not affected, suggesting that the effect of the expression of the ACC mRNA specific gene on insulin secretion is specifically related to the decrease in the amount of ACC gene products. These results provide direct evidence of a causal relationship between ACC and insulin secretion.

Abstract
Long-chain fatty acids are involved in all aspects of cellular structure and function. For controlling amounts of fatty acids, cells are endowed with two acetyl-coenzyme A carboxylase (ACC) systems. ACC-alpha is the rate-limiting enzyme in the biogenesis of long-chain fatty acids, and ACC-beta is believed to control mitochondrial fatty acid oxidation. These two isoforms of ACC control the amount of fatty acids in the cells. Phosphorylation and dephosphorylation of ACC-alpha cause enzyme inactivation and activation, respectively, and serve as the enzyme's short-term regulatory mechanism. Covalently modified enzymes become more sensitive toward cellular metabolites. In addition, many hormones and nutrients affect gene expression. The gene products formed are heterogeneous and tissue specific. The ACC-beta gene is located on human chromosome 12; the cDNA for this gene has just been cloned. The gene for the alpha-isoform is located on human chromosome 17. The catalytic core of the beta-isoform is homologous to that of the alpha-isoform, except for an additional peptide of about 150 amino acids at the N terminus. This extra peptide sequence makes the beta-form about 10,000 daltons larger, and it is thought to be involved in the unique role that has been assigned to this enzyme. The detailed control mechanisms for the beta-isoform are not known.

Abstract
An acetyl-CoA carboxylase has been purified from rat hindlimb muscle using ammonium sulfate fractionation and avidin-Sepharose affinity chromatography. SDS/PAGE of the isolated enzyme showed a major protein band at approximately 272 kDa and a minor band at 265 kDa. The liver acetyl-CoA carboxylase gave a major protein band at 265 kDa and a minor band at 280 kDa. Adipose tissue acetyl-CoA carboxylase migrated to the 265-kDa position on the gel. Western blots performed using streptavidin-alkaline-phosphatase suggest that the bands from the three tissues contain biotin. The present study has characterized the muscle and adipose tissue enzymes under steady-state kinetics and determined Michaelis constants for the substrates. The activation constant for citrate, an essential activator for both preparations, was 2.13 +/- 0.05 mM for the muscle enzyme and 3.02 +/- 0.12 mM for adipose tissue (P < 0.01). The Km values for the muscle acetyl-CoA carboxylase compared to the adipose tissue acetyl-CoA carboxylase were: ATP, 57.6 +/- 0.9 microM compared to 106.5 +/- 2.6 microM, P < 0.01; acetyl-CoA, 31.7 +/- 1.5 microM compared to 21.5 +/- 1.0 microM, P < 0.01; bicarbonate, 2.25 +/- 0.10 mM compared to 2.73 +/- 0.29 mM, P > 0.05. The muscle acetyl-CoA carboxylase was inhibited by malonyl-CoA (Ki = 10.6 +/- 1.0 microM) and palmitoyl-CoA (Ki = 2.2 +/- 0.3 microM). These properties are consistent with the hypothesis that regulation of acetyl-CoA carboxylase plays an important role in governing the rate of fatty acid oxidation in the skeletal muscle.

Abstract
Wheat germ acetyl CoA carboxylase (ACCase) was purified by liquid chromatography and electroelution. During purification bovine serum albumin (BSA) was used to coat Amicon membranes used to concentrate partially pure ACCase. Despite further SDS-PAGE/electroelution and microbore HPLC steps BSA remained associated. This presented serious protein sequencing artefacts which may reflect the affinity of BSA for fatty acids bound to ACCase. To avoid these artefacts the enzyme was digested in gel with Endoproteinase LysC protease without the presence of BSA, and the resulting peptides blotted and sequenced. A partial cDNA (1.85 kb) encoding ACCase from a wheat embryo library was cloned, which hybridised to a 7.5 kb RNA species on northern blot of wheat leaf poly(A)+ RNA. The partial cDNA therefore represents about 0.25 of the full-length cDNA. The clone was authenticated by ACCase peptide sequencing and immuno cross-reactivity of the overexpressed clone. The derived amino acid sequence showed homology with both rat and yeast ACCase sequences (62%). Antibodies raised against wheat acetyl CoA carboxylase were specific for a 220 kDa protein from both wheat embryo and leaf. In addition, by using a novel quick assay for ACCase that utilised 125I-streptavidin, we showed the major biotin containing protein to be 220 kDa in both leaf and germ. This is in marked contrast to the previously published molecular mass of 75 kDa allocated to wheat leaf ACCase.

Abstract
Acetyl-CoA carboxylase is the sole biotin enzyme previously reported in plants. Western analysis with 125I-streptavidin of proteins extracted from carrot somatic embryos visualized six biotin-containing polypeptides, the relative molecular masses of which are 210,000, 140,000, 73,000, 50,000, 39,000, and 34,000. This multiplicity of the biotin-containing polypeptides can be partly explained by the discovery of 3-methylcrotonyl-CoA carboxylase, propionyl-CoA carboxylase, and pyruvate carboxylase in extracts of somatic carrot embryos, biotin enzymes previously unknown in the plant kingdom. These biotin enzymes seem to be widely distributed in the plant kingdom.

Abstract
The biotin-binding site of acetyl-CoA carboxylase from rat was characterized as to its amino acid sequence and relative position in the enzyme molecule. Biotin binds to the lysyl residue in the tetrapeptide Val-Met-Lys-Met; this tetrapeptide is located in close proximity to the NH2 terminus. In all other biotin-containing enzymes, the conserved tetrapeptide Ala-Met-Lys-Met is the counterpart to that of rat acetyl-CoA carboxylase; and the lysyl residue is 35 residues from the COOH terminus. To examine the significance of these unusual features of the biotinylation site of animal acetyl-CoA carboxylase, cDNA fragments were expressed in a bacterial system and the effects of specific site-directed mutagenesis were examined. Replacement of Val by Ala in the conserved tetrapeptide abolished biotinylation of the expressed protein. However, introduction of a termination codon at residue 36, in such a way that the distance between the lysine on which biotin binds and the COOH-terminal amino acid was 35 residues and the penultimate amino acid was the hydrophobic residue leucine, increased the efficiency of biotinylation, provided a substantial portion of the NH2-terminal peptide was removed.

Abstract
Poly(A)+ RNA from lactating rat mammary glands was fractionated according to size by isokinetic sucrose gradient centrifugation to obtain a fraction enriched for acetyl-CoA carboxylase. In vitro translation of this RNA preparation yielded apparent full-length acetyl-CoA carboxylase with a molecular weight of 260,000. The synthesized protein was identified as acetyl-CoA carboxylase by specific immunoprecipitation. Tests with antiserum to fatty acid synthetase, revealed that the fractions containing acetyl-CoA carboxylase mRNA also contained mRNA for fatty acid synthetase; both of these mRNAs were approximately 10 kb. Fatty acid synthetase with a molecular weight of 250,000 was synthesized. Using an in vitro rabbit reticulocyte lysate translation system, we have shown that the amount of translatable acetyl-CoA carboxylase mRNA increases during lactation. On the fifth day postpartum the level of translatable acetyl-CoA carboxylase mRNA increased to a peak level seven times that on the day of parturition.

Abstract
Limited proteolysis of chicken liver acetyl-CoA carboxylase by staphylococcal serine proteinase yielded a fragment of 31 kDa which contained the biotinyl active site. This polypeptide was purified by preparative polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and characterized. The complete amino acid sequence of this polypeptide has been deduced from the nucleotide sequence of cloned DNA complementary to the chicken liver acetyl-CoA carboxylase mRNA. A highly conserved sequence of Met-Lys-Met was found in the biotin-binding site. Appreciable homology was observed among the sequences in close vicinity of the biotin sites of chicken liver acetyl-CoA carboxylase and other biotin-dependent carboxylases including biotin carboxyl carrier protein of Escherichia coli acetyl-CoA carboxylase.

Abstract
By feeding a carbohydrate diet (without protein) to fasted rats, malic enzyme mRNA activity in the liver was increased to the level in rats fed a carbohydrate and protein diet, whereas the enzyme activity itself was increased to 60% of that level. It appears that malic enzyme mRNA activity was increased by dietary carbohydrate, while dietary protein contributed to an increase in the translation of mRNA. In the animals fed carbohydrate without protein, glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase mRNA activity increased to 50% of the level in rats fed the carbohydrate and protein diet, whereas the enzyme activity increased to only 25%. By feeding a protein diet (without carbohydrate), glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase activity increased to 65% of the level in rats fed both carbohydrate and protein. This enzyme induction appears to be more dependent on protein than carbohydrate. With the carbohydrate diet, acetyl-CoA carboxylase was induced up to the level in the carbohydrate and protein diet group, whereas fatty acid synthetase was induced to only 33%. Acetyl-CoA carboxylase induction appears to be carbohydrate dependent. On the other hand, isotopic leucine incorporation studies showed that the magnitudes of the enzyme inductions caused by the dietary nutrients should be ascribed to the enzyme synthesis rates rather than the degradation. By fat feeding, the mRNA activities of malic enzyme and glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase were markedly decreased along with the enzyme induction. Fat appears to reduce these enzyme inductions before the translation of mRNA.

Abstract
Hepatocytes from rainbow trout reared on a diet containing cyclopropenoid fatty acids were analyzed for alterations in protein composition and synthesis by double label experiments. Both cytosolic and microsomal hepatocyte fractions were investigated. In the cytosolic fraction, the synthesis of proteins in the range of 68,000 to 74,000 daltons were significantly decreased. The identity of these proteins remains uncertain. A pronounced depression in both the mass and apparent synthesis of a 200,000 to 240,000 dalton microsomal protein was also observed. Immunoblotting with antibodies raised against goose acetyl-CoA carboxylase and avidin-peroxidase staining suggest that this protein is acetyl-CoA carboxylase. Moreover, synthesis of this protein as well as mass of the protein in cyclopropenoid fatty acid-fed fish were less than 20% of that found in control fish.

Abstract
Biotinyl proteins in cytoplasm and mitochondria of rat liver were examined by fluorography and the quantity of acetyl CoA carboxylase was determined after sodium dodecyl sulfate-denatured proteins were incubated with [14C] methyl avidin and separated by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Results show that one-half of the total acetyl CoA carboxylase in liver of fed rats was associated with mitochondria in a relatively inactive form. Fasting shifted the distribution of the enzyme toward the mitochondrial fraction and refeeding previously fasted rats shifted the distribution towards cytoplasm. Thus, acetyl CoA carboxylase can be added to the list of ambiquitous enzymes whose subcellular distribution varies with physiological conditions.

Abstract
The liver lipogenic enzymes are compared among rats, chickens, frogs and fish. Although the apparent Km values of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase for glucose-6-phosphate are not much different among all the species, those of malic enzyme for malate are much higher in chickens and fish than in rats and frogs. Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase showed very high activities compared with malic enzyme in fish liver, and malic enzyme showed high activities in chicken liver. Although the apparent Km values of acetyl-CoA carboxylase and fatty acid synthetase for substrates are in the same range among all the animals, the activity of acetyl-CoA carboxylase seems to be extremely low in fish and frog livers, and that of fatty acid synthetase is low in frog livers only. In addition, the apparent Km values of alpha-glycerophosphate acyltransferase of fish liver are very high, and the enzyme activity appears to be extremely low compared to the others. Therefore, the enzymes at the first steps of both fatty acid and glycerolipid syntheses of poikilothermos animals appear to be very low. On the other hand, the Ouchterlony double-diffusion patterns showed that the lipogenic enzymes of chickens, frogs and fish are immunologically different from those of rats, with the exception of acetyl-CoA carboxylase in chickens. Therefore, it is suggested that the fatty acid and glycerolipid forming systems of poikilothermos animals are quite different from those of homoiothermos and the lipogenesis is very low in poikilothermos.

Abstract
Monomeric [14C] methyl avidin was shown to bind to sodium dodecyl sulfate-denatured biotinyl proteins and remain bound through polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis which allowed their detection by fluorography. This method was used to show that purified rat liver acetyl CoA carboxylase contained two high molecular weight forms of the enzyme (MR = 241,000 and 252,000) while rapidly prepared, crude rat liver cytoplasm contained two larger molecular weight (MR = 257,000 and 270,000) forms. Thus, the enzyme had undergone substantial proteolysis during purification. The crude enzyme preparation also contained a smaller biotinyl protein (MR = 141,000) which is likely a proteolytic product of the larger forms of acetyl CoA carboxylase.

Abstract
Maize leaf acetyl-CoA carboxylase was purified from whole tissue homogenates by precipitation with polyethylene glycol and ammonium sulfate, and gel filtration. Recoveries were approximately 5% with 100-fold increases in specific activity. The molecular weight of the native enzyme is estimated at 500,000 from the elution volume of a calibrated Ultrogel AcA 22 column. Electrophoresis in polyacrylamide gel containing 1% sodium dodecyl sulfate revealed a single subunit of Mr 60,000-61,000. Investigation of the kinetic properties of the purified enzyme indicates that Mg X ATP is the active substrate, with free ATP inhibiting and Mg2+ activating the enzyme. Km's for acetyl-CoA and HCO3- are about 0.1 and 2 mM, respectively. ADP inhibition is competitive with respect to ATP, but uncompetitive with respect to acetyl-CoA. The observed responses of purified acetyl-CoA carboxylase to changes in pH, and in concentrations of Mg2+, ATP, and ADP, and the reported changes in the chloroplastic concentrations of these effectors during light-dark transitions of chloroplasts are consistent with increased acetyl-CoA carboxylase activity upon illumination of chloroplasts.

Abstract
Native acetyl CoA carboxylase was phosphorylated by catalytic subunit of cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase and ATP-citrate lyase kinase to 1 and 0.5 mol/subunit respectively. Both protein kinases added together increased acetyl CoA carboxylase phosphorylation additively. Partial proteolysis of 32P-acetyl CoA carboxylase followed by electrophoretic analysis showed that the 32P-phosphopeptides generated from acetyl CoA carboxylase phosphorylated with lyase kinase were different from the peptides obtained from the enzyme phosphorylated by cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase. Mapping of tryptic 32P-phosphopeptides by high performance liquid chromatography showed that the major phosphopeptides phosphorylated by ATP-citrate lyase kinase were different from the major phosphopeptides phosphorylated by cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase. The results suggest that at least one different site on acetyl CoA carboxylase is preferentially phosphorylated by each protein kinase.

Abstract
Acetyl CoA carboxylase, ATP-citrate lyase and fatty acid synthetase were purified to homogeneity by a simple procedure. The purification method consists of polymerization of acetyl CoA carboxylase with citrate followed by avidin-Sepharose affinity chromatography. ATP-citrate lyase and fatty acid synthetase were isolated as by-products of acetyl CoA carboxylase purification and are separated from each other by chromatography on DE-52. ATP-citrate lyase was further purified by CoA-agarose affinity chromatography and fatty acid synthetase was purified on Bio-Gel A-1.5m. Purified ATP-citrate lyase, acetyl CoA carboxylase and fatty acid synthetase had specific activities of 9.9, 2.8 and 1.8 U/mg respectively with an over all recovery of 30, 25 and 50% respectively. Using these purified enzymes, we found that ATP-citrate lyase and acetyl CoA carboxylase were phosphorylated in vitro by both cAMP-dependent protein kinase and ATP-citrate lyase kinase whereas fatty acid synthetase was not phosphorylated by these protein kinases.

Abstract
The catalytic subunit of cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase stimulates the inactivation of acetyl-coenzyme A (CoA) carboxylase by acetyl-CoA carboxylase kinase. The stimulated inactivation of carboxylase is due to activation of carboxylase kinase by the catalytic subunit. Activation of carboxylase kinase activity is accompanied by the incorporation of 0.6 mol of phosphate per mole of carboxylase kinase. Addition of the regulatory subunit of cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase prevents the activation of carboxylase kinase. Phosphorylation and activation of carboxylase kinase has no effect on the Km for ATP, but decreases the Km for acetyl-CoA carboxylase from 93 to 45 nM. Inactivation of carboxylase by the carboxylase kinase requires the presence of coenzyme A even when the activated carboxylase kinase is used. Acetyl-CoA carboxylase is not phosphorylated or inactivated by the catalytic subunit of cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase.

Abstract
Studies were made on the dephosphorylation and activation of chicken liver acetyl-coenzyme-A carboxylase. The enzyme isolated by avidin-Sepharose affinity chromatography in the presence of protein phosphatase inhibitors contained 4.9 +/- 0.2 mol of alkali-labile phosphate/mol subunit and had a specific activity of 3.5 +/- 0.4 units/mg protein. The purified enzyme was dephosphorylated and activated concomitantly when incubated in the presence of protein phosphatase with a release of approximately 2 mol of phosphate/mol subunit. Limited tryptic digestion of the native and dephosphorylated forms of the enzyme (Mr 220 000) containing 4.9 and 2.9 mol of phosphate/mol of subunit, respectively, gave almost quantitatively similar polypeptides of Mr 215 000 containing 4.0 mol and 3.0 mol of phosphate per mol, respectively, which were indistinguishable by dodecylsulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. A peptide of Mr approximately 5000 was lost from both enzymes. This result suggests that at least one of the two protein-phosphatase-labile phosphorylation sites is sensitive to trypsin. The native enzyme and those modified by protein phosphatase or by limited tryptic digestion exhibited a bi-phasic dependence on citrate. Activation of the native enzyme by protein phosphatase occurred at all the concentrations of citrate used. However, activation of the enzyme by limited tryptic digestion was found at concentrations greater than 5 mM citrate. The dephosphorylation by protein phosphatase caused an approximately fivefold activation in the enzyme activity when assayed at physiological concentrations of citrate (0.5-2.0 mM).

Abstract
Phosphorylation and inactivation of acetyl-coenzyme A (CoA) carboxylase by acetyl-CoA carboxylase kinase in the presence of ATP and Mg2+ requires coenzyme A. Coenzyme A did not enhance the phosphorylation of alternative substrates of the carboxylase kinase such as protamine or histones. Analogs of coenzyme A were also effective in stimulating the inactivation of carboxylase. The KA of CoA for stimulated carboxylase inactivation was 25 microM. The presence of coenzyme A did not alter the Km of the carboxylase kinase for its substrates, ATP and acetyl-CoA carboxylase. Fluorescence binding studies showed that CoA binds to carboxylase but not to the kinase. The KD of CoA binding to carboxylase is 27 microM. These results indicate that coenzyme A, acting on acetyl-CoA carboxylase, may play an important role in the regulation of the covalent modification mechanism for acetyl-CoA carboxylase.

Abstract
Acetyl-CoA carboxylase (EC 6.4.1.2) has been isolated from rat liver by an avidin-affinity chromatography technique. This preparation has a specific activity of 1.17 +/- 0.06 U/mg and appears as a major (240,000 dalton) and minor (140,000 dalton) band on SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Enzyme isolated by this technique can incorporate 1.09 +/- 0.07 mol phosphate per mol enzyme (Mr = 480,000) when incubated with the catalytic subunit of the cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase at 30 degrees C for 1 h. The associated activity loss under these conditions is 57 +/- 4.0% when the enzyme is assayed in the presence of 2.0 mM citrate. Less inactivation is observed when the enzyme is assayed in the presence of 5.0 mM citrate. The specific protein inhibitor of the cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase blocks both the protein kinase stimulated phosphorylation and inactivation of acetyl-CoA carboxylase. The phosphorylated, inactivated rat liver carboxylase can be partially dephosphorylated and reactivated by incubation with a partially purified protein phosphatase. Preparations of acetyl-CoA carboxylase also contained an endogenous protein kinase(s) which incorporated 0.26 +/- 0.11 mol phosphate per mol carboxylase (Mr = 480,000) accompanied by a 26 +/- 9% decline in activity. We have additionally confirmed that the rat mammary gland enzyme, also isolated by avidin affinity chromatography, can be both phosphorylated and inactivated upon incubation with the cyclic AMP-dependent kinase.
