The interaction of rat liver acetyl-CoA carboxylase with a 2',3'-dialdehyde derivative of ATP (oATP) has been studied. The degree of the enzyme inactivation has been found to depend on the oATP concentration and the incubation time. ATP was proved to be the only substrate which protected the inactivation. Acetyl-CoA did not effect inactivation, while HCO3- accelerated the process. Ki values for oATP in the absence and presence of HCO3- were 0.35 +/- 0.04 and 0.5 +/- 0.06 mM, and those of the modification constant (kmod) were 0.11 and 0.26 min-1 respectively. oATP completely inhibited the [14C]ADP in equilibrium ATP exchange and did not effect the [14C]acetyl-CoA in equilibrium malonyl-CoA exchange. Incorporation of approximately 1 equivalent of [3H]oATP per acetyl-CoA carboxylase subunit has been shown. No recovery of the modified enzyme activity has been observed in Tris or beta-mercaptoethanol containing buffers, and treatment with NaB3H4 has not led to 3H incorporation. The modification elimination of the ATP triphosphate chain. The results indicated the affinity modification of acetyl-CoA carboxylase by oATP. It was shown that the reagent apparently interacted selectively with the epsilon-amino group of lysine in the ATP-binding site to form a morpholine-like structure.

1. Most of the cyclic-nucleotide-independent acetyl-CoA carboxylase kinase activity in an extract of rat epididymal adipose tissue was evaluated from a Mono Q column by 0.175 M-NaCl at pH 7.4. The activity of the kinase in this fraction (fraction 1) was increased after exposure of intact tissue to insulin. 2. Incubation of purified adipose-tissue acetyl-CoA carboxylase with [gamma-32P]ATP and samples of fraction 1 led to the incorporation of up to 0.4 mol of 32P/mol of enzyme subunit. Most of the phosphorylation was on serine residues within a single tryptic peptide. This peptide, on the basis of two-dimensional t.l.c. analysis, h.p.l.c. and Superose 12 chromatography, appeared to be the same as the acetyl-CoA carboxylase peptide ('I'-peptide) which exhibits increased phosphorylation in insulin-treated tissue. 3. Phosphorylation of purified acetyl-CoA carboxylase by the kinase in fraction 1 was found to be associated with a parallel 4-fold increase in activity. However, increases in both phosphorylation and activity were much diminished if fraction 1 was treated by Centricon centrifugation to remove low-Mr components. Among these components was a potent inhibitor of acetyl-CoA carboxylase activity which appeared to be necessary for the kinase in fraction 1 to be fully active. 4. The inhibitor remains to be identified, but inhibition requires MgATP, although the inhibitor itself does not cause any phosphorylation of the carboxylase. No effects of insulin were observed on the activity of the inhibitor. 5. It is concluded that the kinase probably plays an important role in the mechanism whereby insulin brings about the well-established increases in phosphorylation and activation of acetyl-CoA carboxylase in adipose tissue.

The interaction of a number of ATP analogs with a modified triphosphate moiety as well as 2-chloro-ethyl-amino derivatives of nucleotides, 4(N-2-chloroethyl-N-methylamino)-benzyl-gamma-amide of ATP and the corresponding ADP beta-amide with acetyl-CoA carboxylase (EC 6.4.1.2.) from rat liver has been studied. Halophosphonate derivatives of ATP have been synthesized from bromomethylene diphosphonic acid and found to be reversible inhibitors of the enzyme. ATP and ADP alkylating amides have proved to form a reversible complex with the ATP-binding site and to modify a group in the acetyl-CoA-binding site. The bicarbonate ion accelerates the process of inactivation. The estimate of the distance between the ATP-binding site and the acetyl-CoA-binding site ranges within 0.8-1.2 nm.

The zonal distribution within rat liver of acetyl-CoA carboxylase, ATP citrate-lyase and fatty acid synthase, the principal enzymes of fatty acid synthesis, was investigated by using dual-digitonin-pulse perfusion. Analysis of enzyme mass by immunoblotting revealed that, in normally feeding male rats, the periportal/perivenous ratio of acetyl-CoA carboxylase mass was 1.9. The periportal/perivenous ratio of ATP citrate-lyase mass was 1.4, and fatty acid synthase exhibited the largest periportal/perivenous mass gradient, having a ratio of 3.1. This pattern of enzyme distribution was observed in male rats only; in females, the periportal/perivenous ratio of enzyme mass was nearly equal. The periportal/perivenous gradients for acetyl-CoA carboxylase, ATP citrate-lyase and fatty acid synthase observed in fed (and fasted) males were abolished when animals were fasted (48 h) and refed (30 h) with a high-carbohydrate/low-fat diet. As determined by enzyme assay of eluates obtained from the livers of normally feeding male rats, there is also periportal zonation of acetyl-CoA carboxylase activity, expressed either as units per mg of eluted protein or units per mg of acetyl-CoA carboxylase protein, suggesting the existence of gradients in both enzyme mass and specific activity. From these results, we conclude that the enzymes of fatty acid synthesis are zonated periportally in the liver of the normally feeding male rat.

The influence of training on fatty acid and glyceride synthesis by liver and adipose tissue homogenates of young and old Fischer-344 rats was examined. Four groups of rats (10 animals/group) were studied: young untrained, young trained, old untrained, and old trained. Training of each group was for 10 wk at 75% maximal O2 uptake. Young rats were killed at 6 mo of age and old rats were killed at 27 mo of age. Fatty acid synthesis was assessed by measuring the activities of acetyl-CoA carboxylase, fatty acid synthase, ATP citrate-lyase, "malic" enzyme, and glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase. Glyceride synthesis was evaluated by determining the rate of incorporation of [14C]glycerol 3-phosphate into lipids. In addition, lipoprotein lipase activity was measured in acetone-ether powders of adipose tissue from the four groups of rats. In liver, training had no effect on fatty acid or glyceride synthesis in either group. However, aging caused a significant decrease in the activities of four of the lipogenic enzymes but had no effect on glyceride synthesis. Training caused an increase in fatty acid synthase and glyceride synthesis in adipose tissue, and aging decreased lipoprotein lipase activity. It was concluded that training enhances the synthetic capacity of lipids by adipose tissue but that aging had a more profound effect in that the activities of the enzymes involved in these processes were lower in the old rats. Furthermore, the decreased activity of lipoprotein lipase in the older rats may explain the higher plasma triglyceride levels that were observed in these animals.

The interaction of rat liver acetyl-CoA carboxylase with a 2',3'-dialdehyde derivative of ATP (oATP) has been studied. The degree of the enzyme inactivation has been found to depend on the oATP concentration and the incubation time. ATP was the only reaction substrate which provided protection from inactivation. Acetyl-CoA did not affect inactivation, while HCO3- accelerated the process. Ki values for oATP in the absence and the presence of HCO3- were 0.35 +/- 0.04 and 0.5 +/- 0.06 mM, and those of the modification constant (k) were 0.11 and 0.26 min-1, respectively. oATP completely inhibited the reaction of [14C]ADP in equilibrium ATP exchange, whereas produced actually no effect on [14C]acetyl-CoA equilibrium with malonyl-CoA exchange. Incorporation of about one equivalent of [3H]oATP per acetyl-CoA carboxylase subunit has been shown. No restoration of the modified enzyme activity has been observed in Tris or beta-mercaptoethanol containing buffers, and treatment with NaB[3H]4 has not led to 3H incorporation. The modification process involves elimination of the triphosphate chain of oATP. The results obtained indicate the affinity character of oATP-mediated modification of acetyl-CoA carboxylase. The reagent apparently interacts selectively with the epsilon-amino group of lysine in the ATP-binding site to form a morpholine-like structure.

1. We have purified the AMP-activated protein kinase 4800-fold from rat liver. The acetyl-CoA carboxylase kinase and 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-CoA(HMG-CoA) reductase kinase activities copurify through all six purification steps and are inactivated with similar kinetics by treatment with the reactive ATP analogue fluorosulphonylbenzoyladenosine. 2. The final preparation contains several polypeptides detectable by SDS/polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, but only one of these, with an apparent molecular mass of 63 kDa, is labelled using [14C]fluorosulphonylbenzoyladenosine. This is also the only polypeptide in the preparation that becomes significantly labelled during incubation with [gamma 32P]ATP. This autophosphorylation reaction did not affect the AMP-stimulated kinase activity. 3. In the absence of AMP the purified kinase has apparent Km values for ATP and acetyl-CoA carboxylase of 86 microM and 1.9 microM respectively. AMP increases the Vmax 3-5-fold without a significant change in the Km for either protein or ATP substrates. 4. The response to AMP depends on the ATP concentration in the assay, but at a near-physiological ATP concentration the half-maximal effect of AMP occurs at 14 microM. Studies with a range of nucleoside monophosphates and diphosphates, and AMP analogues showed that the allosteric activation by AMP was very specific. ADP gave a small stimulation at low concentrations but was inhibitory at high concentrations. 5. These results show that the AMP-activated protein kinase is the major HMG-CoA reductase kinase detectable in rat liver under our assay conditions and that it is therefore likely to be identical to previously described HMG-CoA reductase kinase(s) which are activated by adenine nucleotides and phosphorylation. The AMP-binding and catalytic domains of the kinase are located on a 63-kDa polypeptide which is subject to autophosphorylation.

A protein kinase, termed microtubule-associated protein (MAP) kinase, which phosphorylates microtubule-associated protein 2 (MAP-2) in vitro and is stimulated 1.5-3-fold in extracts from insulin-treated 3T3-L1 cells has been identified (Ray, L.B., and Sturgill, T.W. (1987) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 84, 1502-1506). Here, we describe chromatographic properties of MAP kinase and provide biochemical characterization of the partially purified enzyme. Isolation of the enzyme is facilitated by its unusually high affinity for hydrophobic interaction chromatography matrices. The molecular weight of the partially purified enzyme was determined to be 35,000 by gel filtration chromatography and 37,000 by glycerol gradient centrifugation. MAP kinase activity of chromatographic fractions correlated precisely with the presence of a 40-kDa phosphoprotein detected by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. MAP kinase has a Km of 7 microM for ATP and does not utilize GTP. Acetyl-CoA carboxylase, ATP citrate-lyase, casein, histones, phosvitin, protamine, and ribosomal protein S6 were all poor substrates relative to MAP-2. The enzyme is inhibited by fluoride and beta-glycerol phosphate but not by heparin. These properties of MAP kinase distinguish it from protein kinases previously described in the literature.

The kinetic time course of citrate-induced activation and polymerization (into filaments) of the protomeric form of acetyl-CoA carboxylase were compared to assess the concertedness of the two processes. Rapid-quench techniques were employed to measure the kinetics of activation of the carboxylase-catalyzed reaction by citrate. When enzyme was preincubated with citrate prior to initiating the steady state turnover reaction with acetyl-CoA in the rapid-quench device, the observed rate of carboxylation of acetyl-CoA was apparently linear from the moment of mixing. However, when enzyme was mixed with citrate to initiate the reaction, a lag (t1/2 = 0.7 s) occurred in the approach to steady state carboxylation rate. This lag was independent of enzyme concentration over a 230-fold range and was marginally dependent upon citrate concentration. Over the same range of enzyme concentration, polymerization of carboxylase protomers, as determined by right angle light scattering, was enzyme concentration-dependent in a manner predicted by a single protomer activation step, followed by a rate-limiting dimerization of active protomer and subsequent polymerization. Polymerization is a second order process, with a second order rate constant of 597,000 M-1 s-1. There appear to be two steps that limit polymerization of the inactive carboxylase protomer: a rapid citrate-induced conformational change, which is independent of enzyme concentration and leads to an active protomeric form of the enzyme and the dimerization of the active protomer, which constitutes the first step of polymerization and is enzyme concentration-dependent. Dimerization is the rate-limiting step of acetyl-CoA carboxylase polymerization. On the basis these results, it is concluded that activation of catalysis and the polymerization of carboxylase protomers are not concerted. Furthermore, activation of carboxylation leading to the formation of an active protomer was faster than polymerization under all conditions, and therefore precedes polymerization. It was also shown that the activation constant (Kact) for citrate is altered in a predictable manner by the accumulation of the reaction product, malonyl-CoA, the Kact increasing with malonyl-CoA concentration. Depolymerization of fully polymerized acetyl-CoA carboxylase is caused by malonyl-CoA or ATP.Mg (and HCO3-). Both malonyl-CoA and ATP.Mg (and HCO3-) compete with citrate in the maintenance of a given state of the protomer-polymer equilibrium apparently by carboxylating the enzyme to form enzyme-biotin CO2- which destabilizes the polymeric form.

In a previous study (A. ENDO, et al., J. Antibiotics 38: 599 approximately 604, 1985), 2-alkyl glutarate and its derivatives isolated from cultures of Gongronella butleri were shown to inhibit animal acetyl-CoA carboxylase. In the present communication, the inhibition of liver acetyl-CoA carboxylase was investigated with several 2-alkyl glutarate and 2-alkyl succinate analogs. Their inhibitory potency increased with the chain length of the alkyl moiety, and 2-tetradecanylglutarate was most potent among the inhibitors tested. Kinetic analysis indicated that inhibition by 2-tetradecanylglutarate was non-competitive with respect to the substrates, ATP, HCO3- and acetyl-CoA, and competitive with respect to the allosteric regulatory citrate, giving a Ki value of 40 microM. Sucrose density gradient centrifugation analysis showed that the citrate-induced polymerization of the enzyme was inhibited by 2-tetradecanylglutarate.
