A rat liver cAMP-independent protein kinase that phosphorylates peptide b of ATP-citrate lyase (Ramakrishna, S., Pucci, D. L., and Benjamin, W. B. (1983) J. Biol. Chem. 258, 4950-4956) has been purified to apparent homogeneity. The molecular weight, determined by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulfate, sucrose density gradient, and by gel filtration, was found to be 36,000. This protein kinase phosphorylates in vitro ATP-citrate lyase, acetyl-CoA carboxylase, and glycogen synthase and does not phosphorylate phosphorylase, phosphorylase kinase, histone, phosvitin, and casein. It has Fa (activity factor) activity stimulating the ATP X Mg-dependent phosphatase and is therefore named a multifunctional protein kinase. This kinase differs from glycogen synthase kinase-3 with regard to substrate specificity, kinetic parameters, and physicochemical properties.

The isolation and biochemical properties of a Saccharomyces cerevisiae mutant (acc1-167) defective in acetyl-CoA carboxylase [acetyl-CoA:carbon-dioxide ligase (ADP forming), EC 6.4.1.2] activity are described. The mutant is deficient in de novo biosynthesis of long-chain fatty acids and specifically requires a saturated fatty acid of chain length 14-16 C atoms for growth. Fatty acid synthetase levels were normal, but the acetyl-CoA carboxylase specific activity of the purified enzyme was reduced to approximately 5% compared to wild-type yeast. Upon sodium dodecyl sulfate/polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis the purified mutant enzyme migrated as a single band and was essentially indistinguishable from the wild-type enzyme. The study of acetyl-CoA carboxylase partial activities revealed that the biotin incorporation capacity and the transcarboxylase partial activity were unaffected whereas the biotin carboxylase component enzyme exhibited less than 10% of wild-type specific activity. This biotin carboxylase mutational deficiency could be ascribed to a more than 90% reduction of Vmax and to a comparable increase in the Km value for ATP, which was accompanied by an increased requirement for Mg2+. It is concluded that acc1-167 contains a structural gene mutation in the biotin carboxylase domain of acetyl-CoA carboxylase.

Acetyl-CoA carboxylase has been purified from lactating rat mammary gland using a combination of ammonium sulphate and poly(ethyleneglycol) precipitations. The enzyme was purified from 35--70-fold with a yield of over 50%, the exact figures being difficult to estimate because of activation of the enzyme that occurs during the preparation. The preparation was homogeneous by the criterion of polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis in sodium dodecyl sulphate and had a single subunit of molecular weight 240,000, containing 1.02 +/- 0.04 molecules of biotin and 3.1 +/- 1.7 molecules of alkali-labile phosphate per subunit. The purified enzyme was phosphorylated and inactivated rapidly when incubated in the presence of [gamma 32P]ATP and magnesium ions with the purified catalytic subunit of cyclic-AMP-dependent protein kinase from rabbit skeletal muscle. Both phosphorylation and inactivation are blocked by the heat-stable protein inhibitor of cyclic-AMP-dependent protein kinase, and can be reversed by incubation with purified protein phosphatase-1 from rabbit skeletal muscle. The inactivation by the protein kinase and reactivation by the protein phosphatase correlate with the near-stoichiometric phosphorylation and dephosphorylation of site(s) located in a single tryptic peptide. Phosphorylation does not affect the Km for substrates, but brings about a twofold decrease in V and a twofold increase in the apparent dissociation constant for the allosteric activator, citrate. We also present evidence that the activation of rabbit mammary acetyl-CoA carboxylase by protein phosphatase-1 described previously [Hardie and Cohen (1979) FEBS Lett. 103, 333-338] is due to dephosphorylation at site(s) which are not phosphorylated by either cyclic-AMP-dependent protein kinase or acetyl-CoA carboxylase kinase-2. These results suggest that the rapid inactivation of acetyl-CoA carboxylase, and hence fatty acid synthesis, by adrenaline in adipose tissue, or glucagon in the liver, is due to phosphorylation of the enzyme by cyclic-AMP-dependent protein kinase.

A protein kinase which phosphorylates and inactivates acetyl-CoA carboxylase has been purified to apparent homogeneity from rat liver. The kinase was found to exist in two forms: bound to carboxylase in a complex or in a free form that is in different stages of aggregation over a wide range of molecular weights. The purification of the kinase involved first partial purification of acetyl-CoA carboxylase through polyethylene glycol precipitation and DEAE-cellulose chromatography. The kinase was then separated from acetyl-CoA carboxylase by Sepharose 2B chromatography. The molecular weight of the kinase subunit was 170,000 as determined by sodium dodecyl sulfate-gel electrophoresis. The incorporation of 1 mol of phosphate/mole of carboxylase subunit caused complete inactivation of the carboxylase. Acetyl-CoA carboxylase, inactivated by the kinase, can be dephosphorylated and reactivated when incubated with phosphorylase phosphatase. The Km values of the kinase for acetyl-CoA carboxylase and ATP are 90 nM and 20 microM, respectively. The kinase was found to be cyclic AMP-independent, but activated by CoA. The protein kinase can phosphorylate acetyl-CoA carboxylase, protamine, and histones, but could not act on hydroxymethylglutaryl-CoA reductase or phosphorylase b.

During the formation of two layers of adipose tissue in the pig's body, starting from the 80th day after birth, samples were obtained by biopsy and analyzed for gross constituents and enzymes concerned with fatty-acid biosynthesis. These two layers differ in total lipid and water content and demonstrate more subtle differences amongst DNA, protein, collagen and sodium concentrations when comparisons are made in regard to age, sex, and breeding selection for low-fat animals. Acetyl-CoA carboxylase, malic enzyme and glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase are more active in the inner layer, while 6-phosphogluconate and isocitrate dehydrogenases are distinguishable in the two layers of adipose tissue as well if age, sex, and breeding line are taken into consideration. The data form the basis for a more detailed study of lipogenic potentials in adipose tissue (next paper).

Two cAMP-independent acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACC) protein kinases have been partially purified from rat liver cytosol and microsomal extracts. The first kinase, present in greatest activity in microsomal extracts, appears to be identical to casein kinase I by characteristic molecular size on gel filtration (Mr 40,000) and sodium dodecyl sulfate-gel electrophoresis (Mr 34,000), autophosphorylation of this single subunit, inability to efficiently utilize GTP, and resistance to inhibition by heparin and 2,3-diphosphoglycerate. The second kinase, predominant in cytosol, appears to be identical to casein kinase II by characteristic molecular size on gel filtration (Mr 150,000), an autophosphorylated subunit of Mr 25,000, a Km for GTP nearly equal to that of ATP, inhibition by heparin and 2,3 DPG, and relative substrate specificity. Despite the incorporation of up to 2 mol 32P/mol carboxylase subunit (kinase I) and 0.6 mol/subunit (kinase II), phosphorylation by either kinase causes no change in carboxylase activity. The site(s) phosphorylated by each kinase and by the cAMP-dependent protein kinase on carboxylase appear to be clustered on a Mr 16,000 cyanogen bromide peptide that is readily released on incubation with trypsin. The potential roles of these kinases in the regulation of ACC remain to be clarified.

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.

Protein kinase activity in high-speed supernatant fractions prepared from rat epididymal adipose tissue previously incubated in the absence or presence of insulin was investigated by following the incorporation of 32P from [gamma-32P]ATP into phosphoproteins separated by sodium dodecyl sulphate/polyacrylamide-gel electro-phoresis. Incorporation of 32P into several endogenous proteins in the supernatant fractions from insulin-treated tissue was significantly increased. These included acetyl-CoA carboxylase and ATP citrate lyase (which exhibit increased phosphorylation within fat-cells exposed to insulin), together with two unknown proteins of subunit Mr 78000 and 43000. The protein kinase activity increased by insulin was distinct from cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase, was not dependent on Ca2+ and was not appreciably affected by dialysis or gel filtration. The rate of phosphorylation of added purified fat-cell acetyl-CoA carboxylase and ATP citrate lyase was also increased by 60-90% in high-speed-supernatant fractions prepared from insulin-treated tissue. No evidence for any persistent changes in phosphoprotein phosphatase activity was found. It is concluded that insulin action on acetyl-CoA carboxylase, ATP citrate lyase and other intracellular proteins exhibiting increased phosphorylation involves an increase in cyclic AMP-independent protein kinase activity in the cytoplasm. The possibility that the increase reflects translocation from the plasma membrane, perhaps after phosphorylation by the protein tyrosine kinase associated with insulin receptors, is discussed.

Acetyl-CoA carboxylase phosphatase has been purified from the rat epididymal fat pad. The phosphatase occurs in a complex with the carboxylase. In the purification of the phosphatase, the high molecular weight complex was initially separated by sucrose gradient centrifugation, and the phosphatase was isolated from the complex by adjusting to 80% saturation with ethanol and by chromatography on Sephadex G-75. The molecular weight of the phosphatase is 71,000 as determined by sodium dodecyl sulfate gel electrophoresis and gel chromatography on Sephacryl-200 in the presence of 6 M urea. The Km for acetyl-CoA carboxylase and glycogen phosphorylase a are 1.5 microM and 37 microM, respectively. The phosphatase has a broad substrate specificity, being active toward glycogen synthase, 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-CoA reductase, phosphorylase a, phosphoprotamine, and p-nitrophenyl phosphate, in addition to acetyl-CoA carboxylase from fat tissue and liver. Acetyl-CoA carboxylase inhibits the dephosphorylation of phosphoprotamine, indicating that the same activity is responsible for dephosphorylating both substrates. The phosphatase requires no metal ion for activity and is not inhibited by the rat liver phosphorylase phosphatase inhibitor protein. The significance of these findings is discussed in relation to the regulation of acetyl-CoA carboxylase, and the phosphatase is compared to other phosphoprotein phosphatases.

Biotin carboxylases in mammalian cells are regulatory enzymes in lipogenesis and gluconeogenesis. In this study, endogenous biotin in skeletal and cardiac muscle was detected using avidin conjugated with alkaline phosphatase and applied in high concentrations to muscle sections. The avidin binding was subsequently visualized by histochemical demonstration of the alkaline phosphatase activity. All cardiac muscle cells showed high affinity for avidin with only the nuclei and the intercalated discs remaining unstained. In skeletal muscle a diffuse reaction could be detected in the sarcoplasm of the muscle fibres. A granular reaction was noted in the same fibres that showed activity for succinic dehydrogenase. The specificity of the coloured reaction product in the muscle sections was investigated and is suggested to be caused by avidin binding to biotin moieties in mitochondria and the cytosol. Mitochondrial and cytosolic preparations of skeletal muscle were electrophoresed in sodium dodecyl sulphate gels. After blotting and incubation with conjugated avidin, two bands with molecular weights of 75 kDa and 130 kDa respectively were evident in the mitochondrial preparation. It is suggested that the 75-kDa band represents comigration of the biotin-containing subunits of propionyl-CoA carboxylase and methylcrotonyl-CoA carboxylase. The 130-kDa band may represent the biotin-containing pyruvate carboxylase. In the cytosolic preparation a 270-kDa band was stained in blots that had been incubated with conjugated avidin; this band is suggested to represent acetyl-CoA carboxylase. A 190-kDa cytosolic band might be a cleavage product of acetyl-CoA carboxylase. We propose that using alkaline phosphatase-conjugated avidin it is possible to detect the mitochondrial and cytosolic biotin-dependent carboxylases in striated muscle.
