Disease relevance of Acsl1

 

High impact information on Acsl1

  • We report herein the cDNA cloning of a novel rat acyl-CoA synthetase (ACS) that preferentially uses arachidonate and eicosapentaenoate [5].
  • Ad-ACSL1, located on the endoplasmic reticulum but not on mitochondria or plasma membrane, increased ACS specific activity 3.7-fold [6].
  • Long chain fatty acids are converted to acyl-CoAs by acyl-CoA synthetase (fatty acid CoA ligase: AMP forming, E.C. 6.2.1.3; ACS) [1].
  • In the fadD background, the rat ACS isoforms 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 oxidized [(14)C]oleate at 5 to 25% of the wild type levels, but only ACS5 restored growth on oleate as the sole carbon source [1].
  • Rodents have five ACS isoforms that differ in substrate specificity, tissue expression, and subcellular localization and are believed to channel fatty acids toward distinct metabolic pathways [1].
 

Chemical compound and disease context of Acsl1

  • Morris 7800 C1 hepatoma cell acyl-CoA synthetase (ACS) and peroxisomal acyl-CpA oxidase (ACO) were induced by thia fatty acids of all chain lengths, and with the sulphur atom(s) in different positions [7].
 

Biological context of Acsl1

  • Moreover, intrathecal injection of MK801, a noncompetitive NMDA antagonist, partially prevented these inductions, highlighting the involvement of the neurotransmitter glutamate in the central ACS and ACO up-regulation [8].
  • Two types of acyl-CoA synthetase (ACS), designated ACS1 and ACS2, are structurally similar isozymes with different tissue distributions [9].
  • Through the use of heterodimer-selective compounds, it was demonstrated that the modulatory effect of these rexinoids on FATP-1 and ACS gene expression was mediated through activation of RXR in the context of the PPAR-RXR heterodimer [10].
  • Transverse-plane topography of mitochondrial outer-membrane long-chain acyl-CoA synthetase was investigated using proteases as probes for exposure of crucial domains, i.e. domains containing the active site or otherwise required for enzymatic activity [11].
  • Analysis of two overlapping genomic clones for the rat ACS gene revealed that the three 5'-untranslated regions of the mRNAs are individually encoded by three different exons located within a 20-kilobase genomic fragment [12].

Analytical, diagnostic and therapeutic context of Acsl1

  • Using semiquantitative RT-PCR, we explored in the neuraxis the mRNA expression of brain acyl-CoA synthetases (ACS) and acyl-CoA oxidase (ACO), which are major fatty acid-metabolizing enzymes, following complete Freund's adjuvant (CFA) injection into a hind paw [8].
  • This ACS PPRE contains three imperfect half sites spaced by 1 and 3 oligonucleotides and binds PPAR.retinoid X receptor heterodimers in gel retardation assays [2].
  • Molecular cloning of cDNA encoding rat very long-chain acyl-CoA synthetase [19].
  • This regulation of FATP and ACS expression by PPAR activators was shown to be at the transcriptional level and could also be reproduced in vitro in cell culture systems [24].
  • Western blot analysis using tissue homogenates of rat liver, heart, kidney, lung, brain, and ileum showed that LACS was found in every tissue investigated, with the greatest expression in the liver [25].
