The present work focused on the kinetics of the inhibitory effects of the leaf extract of Siberian Crabapple, named Shan jingzi in China, on chicken liver fatty acid synthase. The results showed that this extract had much stronger inhibitory ability on fatty acid synthase than that from green teas described in many previous reports. The inhibitory ability of this extract is closely related to the extracting solvent, and the time of extraction was also an important influencing factor. The inhibitory types of this extract on diffeerent substrates of chicken liver fatty acid synthase, acetyl-CoA, malonyl-CoA and NADPH, were found to be noncompetitive, uncompetitive and mixed, respectively. The studies here shed a new light on the exploration for inhibitors of fatty acid synthase. 相似文献

Keemun black tea extract contains potent fatty acid synthase inhibitors and reduces food intake and body weight of rats via oral administration 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
The inhibitory effects of a black tea extract on fatty acid synthase were measured through inhibition kinetics. The Keemun black tea extract showed more potent inhibitory activity on fatty acid synthase than green tea extract. Additionally, the inhibitory ability of the black tea extract depended on the extracting solvent and the conditions used. Only 10-23% of the inhibitory activity from the black tea was extracted by the general method of boiling with water. The results suggested that the main fatty acid synthase inhibitors in black tea might be theaflavins. Which were more potent than epigallocatechin gallate or C75. The reaction site on the fatty acid synthase and the inhibition kinetics for the extract were different from those of epigallocatechin gallate or C75. In addition, Keemun black tea extract significantly reduced food intake, body weight and blood triglyceride of diet-induced obesity SD rats via oral administration. 相似文献

The fatty acid synthase (FAS) of animal tissue is a dimer of two identical subunits, each with a Mr of 260,000. The subunit is a single multifunctional protein having seven catalytic activities and a site for binding of the prosthetic group 4'-phosphopantetheine. The mRNA coding for the subunit has an estimated size of 10-16 kb, which is about twice the number of nucleotides needed to code for the estimated 2300 amino acids. We have isolated a positive clone, lambda CFAS, containing FAS gene sequences by screening a chicken genomic library with a segment of a 3' untranslated region of goose fatty acid synthase cDNA clone, pGFAS3, as a hybridization probe. The DNA insert in lambda CFAS hybridizes with synthetic oligonucleotide probes prepared according to the known amino acid sequence of the thioesterase component of the chicken liver fatty acid synthase [Yang, C.-Y., Huang, W.-Y., Chirala, S., & Wakil, S.J. (1988) Biochemistry (preceding paper in this issue)]. Further characterization of the DNA insert shows that the lambda CFAS clone contains about a 4.7-kbp segment from the 3' end of the chicken FAS gene that codes for a portion of the thioesterase domain. Complete sequence analyses of this segment including S1 nuclease mapping, showed that the lambda CFAS clone contains the entire 3' untranslated region of the chicken FAS gene and three exons that code for 162 amino acids of the thioesterase domain from the COOH-terminal end of the fatty acid synthase. Using the exon region of the genomic clone, we were able to isolate a cDNA clone that codes for the entire thioesterase domain of chicken liver fatty acid synthase.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

1. The utilization of methyl[2-14C]malonyl-CoA for fatty acid synthesis was investigated using synthetase preparations from chicken liver and sheep adipose tissue. 2. The rate of fatty acid synthesis from acetyl-CoA and malonyl-CoA was greatly diminished in the presence of methylmalonyl-CoA. 3. In the absence of malonyl-CoA, methylmalonyl-CoA was utilized for fatty acid synthesis only very slowly by the synthetase from sheep adipose tissue and not at all by that from chicken liver. 4. Despite the inhibitory effect of methylmalonyl-CoA on fatty acid synthesis from malonyl-CoA, it was utilized by the synthetase preparations from both species to produce a complex mixture of methyl-branched fatty acids. 相似文献

The stereochemistry of the four partial reactions catalyzed by chicken liver fatty acid synthase that lead to the synthesis of palmitic acid has been determined. The reduction of acetoacetyl-CoA to 3-hydroxybutyryl-CoA by NADPH proceeds with the transfer of the pro-4S hydrogen of NADPH to form D-3-hydroxybutyryl-CoA. During the subsequent dehydration of D-3-hydroxybutyryl-CoA the pro-2S hydrogen and the 3-hydroxyl group are removed in a syn elimination to form crotonyl-CoA. Crotonyl-CoA is reduced to butyryl-CoA by NADPH, with the transfer of the pro-4R hydrogen of NADPH to the pro-3R position in butyryl-CoA and the transfer of a solvent hydrogen to the pro-2S position. The occurrence of the syn dehydration, when combined with the results of a previous study [ Sedgwick , B., & Cornforth , J. W. (1977) Eur. J. Biochem. 75, 465-479], implies that the condensation of the enzyme-bound malonyl moiety with the enzyme-bound saturated fatty acid to form a 3-keto intermediate proceeds with inversion at C-2 of the malonyl. The stereochemistry of the hydration was derived from an analysis of the spin-spin coupling constant of 3-hydroxy[2-2H]butyric acid benzylamides obtained from 3-hydroxy[2-2H]butyryl-CoA synthesized by fatty acid synthase. The elucidation of the stereochemistry of the reduction of crotonyl-CoA relied on the previously established stereochemistry of pork liver acyl-CoA dehydrogenase. The source of all 28 prochiral hydrogens of the palmitic acid synthesized by chicken liver fatty acid synthase was inferred from the results of this work. 相似文献

We manufactured a new fermented tea by tea-rolling processing of third-crop green tea (Camellia sinensis) leaves and loquat (Eriobotrya japonica) leaves. The mixed fermented tea extract inhibited pancreatic lipase activity in vitro, and effectively suppressed postprandial hypertriacylglycerolemia in rats. Rats fed a diet containing 1% freeze-dried fermented tea extract for 4 weeks had a significantly lower liver triacylglycerol concentration and white adipose tissue weight than those fed the control diet lacking fermented tea extract. The activity of fatty acid synthase in hepatic cytosol markedly decreased in the fermented tea extract group as compared to the control group. The serum and liver triacylglycerol- and body fat-lowering effects of the mixed fermented tea extract were strong relative to the level of dietary supplementation. These results suggest that the new fermented tea product exhibited hypotriacylglycerolemic and antiobesity properties through suppression of both liver fatty acid synthesis and postprandial hypertriacylglycerolemia by inhibition of pancreatic lipase. 相似文献

We have developed a simple and versatile cDNA extension method using lambda-exonuclease-generated single-stranded DNA as a primer. This plasmid-based cDNA extension method can be used to synthesize unidirectional extensions of the existing cDNA clones or subcloned fragments of the untranslated and exon regions of genomic DNA clones. The method is simple to use and involves no addition of linkers or tailing. We have successfully used this method to isolate 4.6 kilobase pairs of chicken fatty acid synthase cDNA clones, starting from the fragment of a genomic clone coding for the untranslated region of the fatty acid synthase mRNA. About 2.8 kilobase pairs of the cDNA coding for the chicken fatty acid synthase has been sequenced. The sequence has an open reading frame coding for 945 amino acids of the fatty acid synthase. In the sequence, we have identified the enoyl reductase, NADPH binding region, a putative beta-ketoacyl reductase region, and the entire sequences of acyl carrier protein and the thioesterase domains. The arrangement of these partial activities in this sequence confirms the arrangement of these activities as determined through partial proteolytic mapping studies. The amino acid sequence of chicken fatty acid synthase deduced from cDNA sequences shows a high degree of homology with the rat fatty acid synthase sequence, suggesting that these multifunctional proteins are conserved evolutionarily. 相似文献

Fatty acid synthase is an important enzyme participating in energy metabolism in vivo. The inactivation and conformational changes of the multifunctional fatty acid synthase from chicken liver in SDS solutions have been studied. The results show that the denaturation of this multifunctional enzyme by SDS occurred in three stages. At low concentrations of SDS (less than 0.15 mM) the enzyme was completely inactivated with regard to the overall reaction. For each component of the enzyme, the loss of activity occurred at higher concentrations of SDS. Significant conformational changes (as indicated by the changes of the intrinsic fluorescence emission and the ultraviolet difference spectra) occurred at higher concentrations of SDS. Increasing the SDS concentration caused only slight changes of the CD spectra, indicating that SDS had no significant effect on the secondary structure of the enzyme. The results suggest that the active sites of the multifunctional fatty acid synthase display more conformational flexibility than the enzyme molecule as a whole. 相似文献

We investigated the ameliorative effect of freshwater clam extract (FCE) on fatty liver, hypercholesterolemia, and liver injury in rats exposed to chloretone. Furthermore, we examined the effects of major FCE components (fat and protein fractions) to determine the active components in FCE. Chloretone increased serum aminotransferase activities and led to hepatic lipid accumulation. Serum aminotransferase activities and hepatic lipid content were lower in rats fed total FCE or fat/protein fractions of FCE. Expression of fatty acid synthase and fatty acid desaturase genes was upregulated by chloretone. Total FCE and fat/protein fractions of FCE suppressed the increase in gene expression involved in fatty acid synthesis. Serum cholesterol levels increased twofold upon chloretone exposure. Total FCE or fat/protein fractions of FCE showed hypocholesterolemic effects in rats with hypercholesterolemia induced by chloretone. These suggest that FCE contains at least two active components against fatty liver, hypercholesterolemia, and liver injury in rats exposed to chloretone. 相似文献

Complete amino acid sequence of the thioesterase domain of chicken liver fatty acid synthase 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The complete amino acid sequence of thioesterase domain of chicken liver fatty acid synthase has been determined by sequencing peptides produced by trypsin, Staphylococcus aureus V8 protease, and cyanogen bromide cleavage. The thioesterase domain consists of 300 amino acid residues. All of the tryptic peptides of the thioesterase domain were isolated and sequenced, except the segment covered from position 109 to position 124. Peptides resulting from digestion by Staphylococcus aureus V8 protease and cyanogen bromide cleavage filled the missing part and overlapped the complete sequence of the entire thioesterase domain. The NH2 terminus of the thioesterase domain was determined to be lysine by sequencing the whole domain up to 20 residues while the COOH terminus was identified as serine through carboxyl peptidase Y cleavage. The active site of the thioesterase domain of chicken fatty acid synthase was suggested to be the serine on position 101 according to its homology with other serine-type esterases and proteases which have a common structure of -Gly-X-Ser-Y-Gly- with the variable amino acids X and Y disrupting the homology. 相似文献

The inactivation and conformational changes of the multifunctional fatty acid synthase (acyl-CoA:malonyl-CoA C-acyltransferase (decarboxylating, oxoacyl- and enoyl-reducing and thioester-hydrolyzing), EC 2.3.1.85) from chicken liver have been studied in urea solution. The results show that complete inactivation of the fatty acid synthase occurs before obvious conformational changes with regard to the overall, beta-ketoacyl reduction and acetoacetyl-CoA reduction reactions. Significant conformational changes indicated by the changes of the intrinsic fluorescence emission and the circular dichroism spectra occurred at higher urea concentrations. The kinetic rate constants for the two phase inactivation and unfolding reactions were measured and semilogarithmic plots of the activity versus time gave curves which could be resolved into two straight lines, indicating that both the inactivation and unfolding processes consisted of fast and slow phases as a first-order reaction. The results from Lineweaver-Burk plots indicated that urea is a competitive inhibitor for acetyl-CoA and malonyl-CoA, with K(m) increasing with increasing urea concentrations. However, urea is a noncompetitive inhibitor for NADPH, the substrate of the overall reaction and beta-ketoacyl reduction reaction, and acetylacetate, the substrate of the beta-ketoacyl reduction reaction. Activation by low concentrations of urea was observed although this activation was only temporarily induced in an early stage of inactivation. The aggregation phenomenon of the fatty acid synthase in a certain concentration range of urea (3-4 M) was also observed during unfolding. This result shows that this multifunctional enzyme unfolds with competition with misfolding in the folding pathway. Comparison of inactivation and conformational changes of the enzyme as well as aggregation imply that unfolding intermediates may exist during urea denaturation. The possible unfolding pathway of fatty acid synthase is also discussed in this paper. 相似文献

The compound L-660, 631 (2-oxo-5-(1-hydroxy-2,4,6-heptatriynyl)-1,3-dioxolane-4 heptanoic acid), a natural product isolated from an Actinomycete culture, was found to inhibit rat liver cytosolic acetoacetyl-CoA thiolase, the first step in the cholesterol biosynthesis pathway, with an IC50 of 1.0 x 10(-8) M. The inhibitor had no effect on other sulfhydryl containing enzymes of lipid synthesis such as HMG-CoA synthase, HMG-CoA reductase, and fatty acid synthase. When tested in cultured human liver Hep G2 cells the compound inhibited the incorporation of 14C-acetate and 14C-octanoate into sterols 56% and 48% respectively at 3 x 10(-6) M with no effect on fatty acid synthesis. No noticeable effect was seen on fatty acid biosynthesis. This strongly suggests that the locus of inhibition of acetate incorporation into sterols found with this compound is the acetoacetyl-CoA thiolase step in the cholesterol biosynthesis pathway. 相似文献

Urea-induced aggregation of chicken liver fatty acid synthase [acyl-CoA:malonyl-CoA C-acyltransferase (decarboxylating,oxoacyl- and enoyl-reducing and thioester-hydrolyzing), EC 2.3.1.85 ] was studied. The aggregation was facilitated at increased ionic strength. Methyl--cyclodextrin and some osmolytes, such as glycerol, sucrose, proline, glycine, and heparin, could effectively prevent the aggregation, implying an artificial chaperone role of those substances during fatty acid synthase unfolding. The osmolytes also protected the enzyme from inactivation. 相似文献

Small-angle neutron-scattering and electron microscope studies of the chicken liver fatty acid synthase 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

A structural model for the chicken liver fatty acid synthase is proposed based on electron microscope and small-angle neutron-scattering studies of the enzyme. The model has the overall appearance of two side by side cylinders with dimensions of 160 X 146 X 73 A, with each subunit 160 A in length and 73 A in diameter. The model was constructed by dividing each cylinder into three domains having lengths of 32, 82, and 46 A, with the domain structures in the two subunits being related to each other by a dyad axis. The model is consistent with chemical cross-linking studies which indicated that the subunits are arranged in a head to tail fashion. The cross-linking studies further showed that the beta-ketoacyl synthase active site contains a cysteine and a pantetheine residue from adjacent subunits. It is proposed that the domains which catalyze the addition of C2 units from malonate to the growing fatty acid chain lie in the crevice between the two subunits and that the two independent sets of fatty acid-synthesizing centers lie on the major axis of the model on opposite ends of the molecular dyad. 相似文献

A double-stranded cDNA library was constructed using total poly(A)+ RNA from the goose uropygial gland. Clones containing sequences complementary to fatty acid synthase mRNA were initially identified by colony hybridization with a 32P-labeled cDNA transcribed from RNA enriched for fatty acid synthase mRNA. Identity of the fatty acid synthase clones was confirmed by hybrid-selected translation. Mature fatty acid synthase mRNA is approximately 16 kilobases in length. When unfed neonatal goslings were fed for 24 hr, relative synthesis of hepatic fatty acid synthase increased more than 42-fold. Concomitantly, hepatic fatty acid synthase mRNA levels increased 70-fold. Thus, nutritional regulation of the synthesis of hepatic fatty acid synthase probably occurs at the pretranslational level. The availability of a specific probe for fatty acid synthase mRNA should allow us to analyze the regulation of expression of this gene during development, by nutrition and by hormones in both liver and uropygial gland. 相似文献

Malic enzyme [L-malate-NADP oxidoreductase (decarboxylating), EC 1.1.1.40] and fatty acid synthase activities were barely detectable in the uropygial gland of duck embryos until 4 or 5 days before hatching, when they began to increase. These activities increased about 30- and 140-fold, respectively, by the day of hatching. Malic enzyme and fatty acid synthase activities were also very low in embryonic liver. However, hepatic malic enzyme activity did not increase until the newly hatched ducklings were fed. Hepatic fatty acid synthase began to increase the day before hatching and the rate of increase in enzyme activity accelerated markedly when the newly hatched ducklings were fed. Starvation of newly hatched or 12-day-old ducklings had no effect on the activities of malic enzyme and fatty acid synthase in the uropygial gland but markedly inhibited these activities in liver. Changes in the concentrations of both enzymes and in the relative synthesis rates of fatty acid synthase correlated with enzyme activities in both uropygial gland and liver. Developmental patterns for sequence abundance of malic enzyme and fatty acid synthase mRNAs in uropygial gland and liver were similar to those for their respective enzyme activities. Starvation of 4-day-old ducklings had no significant effect on the abundance of these mRNAs in uropygial gland but caused a pronounced decrease in their abundance in liver. It is concluded that developmental and nutritional regulation of these enzymes is tissue specific and occurs primarily at a pretranslational level in both uropygial gland and liver. 相似文献

3-Oxoacyl-CoA synthase, that condenses malonyl-CoA to other acyl-CoAs and takes part in the malonyl-CoA-dependent, acyl carrier protein (ACP)-non-requiring fatty acid elongation system ("fatty acid elongation system II or elongation system II" (Kikuchi, S. & Kusaka, T. (1982) J. Biochem. 92, 839-844)), was purified to homogeneity for the first time from the crude extract of Mycobacterium smegmatis by column-chromatographies. The molecular weight of this enzyme was estimated to be around 64,000 by Sephacryl S-300 gel filtration and 59,000 by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The enzymic product from malonyl-CoA and stearoyl-CoA was identified as 3-oxoeicosanoyl-CoA by mass-spectrometry. Km values of the enzyme for malonyl-CoA and stearoyl-CoA were 41.7 microM and 52.6 microM, respectively. The enzyme was more active toward acyl-CoAs having acyl-carbon-numbers of 18 or more, either saturated or monounsaturated, than those with below 18. Cerulenin, a specific inhibitor of 3-oxoacyl-ACP synthase [EC 2.3.1.41], had no effect on this enzyme but iodoacetamide and N-ethylmaleimide (NEM) showed inhibitory effects. 相似文献
