Acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACCase; EC 6.4.1.2) is a regulatory enzyme of fatty acid synthesis, and in some higher-plant plastids is a multi-subunit complex consisting of biotin carboxylase (BC), biotin-carboxyl carrier protein (BCCP), and carboxyl transferase (CT). We recently described a Nicotiana tabacum L. (tobacco) cDNA with a deduced amino acid sequence similar to that of prokaryotic BC. We here provide further biochemical and immunological evidence that this higher-plant polypeptide is an authentic BC component of ACCase. The BC protein co-purified with ACCase activity and with BCCP during gel permeation chromatography of Pisum sativum L. (pea) chloroplast proteins. Antibodies to the Ricinus communis L. (castor) BC co-precipitated ACCase activity and BCCP. During castor seed development, ACCase activity and the levels of BC and BCCP increased and subsequently decreased in parallel, indicating their coordinate regulation. The BC protein comprised about 0.8% of the soluble protein in developing castor seed, and less than 0.05% of the protein in young leaf or root. Polypeptides cross-reacting with antibodies to castor BC were detected in several dicotyledons and in the monocotyledons Hemerocallis fulva L. (day lily), Iris L., and Allium cepa L. (onion), but not in the Gramineae species Hordeum vulgare L. (barley) and Panicum virgatum L. (switchgrass). The castor endosperm and pea chloroplast ACCases were not significantly inhibited by long-chain acyl-acyl carrier protein, free fatty acids or acyl carrier protein. The BC polypeptide was detected throughout Brassica napus L. (rapeseed) embryo development, in contrast to the multi-functional ACCase isoenzyme which was only detected early in development. These results firmly establish the identity of the BC polypeptide in plants and provide insight into the structure, regulation and roles of higherplant ACCases.Abbreviations ACCase

A multisubunit acetyl coenzyme A carboxylase from soybean 总被引:8,自引:0,他引:8
A multisubunit form of acetyl coenzyme A (CoA) carboxylase (ACCase) from soybean (Glycine max) was characterized. The enzyme catalyzes the formation of malonyl CoA from acetyl CoA, a rate-limiting step in fatty acid biosynthesis. The four known components that constitute plastid ACCase are biotin carboxylase (BC), biotin carboxyl carrier protein (BCCP), and the alpha- and beta-subunits of carboxyltransferase (alpha- and beta-CT). At least three different cDNAs were isolated from germinating soybean seeds that encode BC, two that encode BCCP, and four that encode alpha-CT. Whereas BC, BCCP, and alpha-CT are products of nuclear genes, the DNA that encodes soybean beta-CT is located in chloroplasts. Translation products from cDNAs for BC, BCCP, and alpha-CT were imported into isolated pea (Pisum sativum) chloroplasts and became integrated into ACCase. Edman microsequence analysis of the subunits after import permitted the identification of the amino-terminal sequence of the mature protein after removal of the transit sequences. Antibodies specific for each of the chloroplast ACCase subunits were generated against products from the cDNAs expressed in bacteria. The antibodies permitted components of ACCase to be followed during fractionation of the chloroplast stroma. Even in the presence of 0.5 M KCl, a complex that contained BC plus BCCP emerged from Sephacryl 400 with an apparent molecular mass greater than about 800 kD. A second complex, which contained alpha- and beta-CT, was also recovered from the column, and it had an apparent molecular mass of greater than about 600 kD. By mixing the two complexes together at appropriate ratios, ACCase enzymatic activity was restored. Even higher ACCase activities were recovered by mixing complexes from pea and soybean. The results demonstrate that the active form of ACCase can be reassembled and that it could form a high-molecular-mass complex. 相似文献

The committed step for de novo fatty acid biosynthesis is the carboxylation of acetyl-CoA catalyzed by acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACCase). Plastidial ACCase from most plants is a multisubunit complex composed of multiple copies of four different polypeptides, biotin carboxyl carrier protein (BCCP), biotin carboxylase (BC), and carboxyltransferase (alpha-CT and beta-CT). Immunoblot analyses revealed these four proteins were mostly (69% of total) associated with a 17,000 g insoluble fraction from lysed pea chloroplasts. Under the same conditions only 8% of ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase was associated with this insoluble fraction. BCCP and biotin carboxylase BC subunits freely dissociated from 17 kg insoluble fractions under high ionic strength conditions, whereas alpha-CT and beta-CT subunits remained tightly associated. Both CT subunits were highly enriched in envelope versus stroma and thylakoid preparations whereas BC and BCCP subunits were predominantly stromal-localized due to partial dissociation. Rapid solubilization of intact chloroplasts with Triton X-100 followed by centrifugation at 30 kg resulted in a pellet that was up to 8-fold enriched in ACCase activity and 21-fold enriched in BC activity. Triton-insoluble 30 kg pellets were reduced in lipid and chlorophyll content but enriched in chloroplast DNA due to the isolation of nucleoid particles. However, ACCase was not directly associated with nucleoids since enzymatic digestion of DNA or RNA had no effect on the association with Triton-insoluble matter. The amount of Triton-insoluble ACCase was similar in chloroplasts isolated from dark- or light-adapted leaves suggesting transitory starch granules were also not involved in this association. It is proposed that ACCase is associated with envelope membranes through interactions with an unidentified integral membrane protein. 相似文献

Two forms of acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACCase) have been characterized in pea ( Pisum sativum L.) leaves; a heteromeric chloroplast enzyme and a homomeric, presumably cytosolic enzyme. The biotin carboxylase (BC), biotin carboxyl carrier protein (BCCP), and β-carboxyltransferase (CT) subunits of the plastidial-ACCase have recently been characterized and cloned. To further characterize the carboxyl-transferase, an improved assay for CT was developed and used to follow its partial purification. CT activity co-purifies with ACCase activity during gel permeation chromatography. However, upon anion-exchange chromatography or native PAGE, CT separates from the BC and BCCP subunits of plastidiaI-ACCase and ACCase activity is lost. In addition, it is demonstrated that a previously sequenced pea chloroplast cDNA of unknown function (IEP96) with a predicted molecular weight of 91 kDa encodes the α-CT subunit of the MS-ACCase. Antibodies raised against the first 404 amino acids of IEP96 protein detected a polypeptide with molecular weight of 91 kDa that co-eluted during gel permeation chromatography with plastidial CT and ACCase activities. These antibodies also immunoprecipitated the activities of both ACCase and CT with the concomitant precipitation of the β-CT subunit. Furthermore, antibodies against β-CT immunoprecipitated the IEP96 protein. Two-dimensional PAGE and DEAE purification of ACCase protein demonstrated that the β-CT forms a tight association with the IEP96 protein. Pea leaf was fractionated into soluble and membrane fractions and the α-CT subunit was primarily associated with the membrane fraction. Together, these data demonstrate that IEP96 is the α-CT subunit of pea chloroplast ACCase. 相似文献

We gathered primary and tertiary structures of acyl-CoA carboxylases from public databases, and established that members of their biotin carboxylase (BC) and biotin carboxyl carrier protein (BCCP) domains occur in one family each and that members of their carboxyl transferase (CT) domains occur in two families. Protein families have members similar in primary and tertiary structure that probably have descended from the same protein ancestor. The BCCP domains complexed with biotin in acyl and acyl-CoA carboxylases transfer bicarbonate ions from BC domains to CT domains, enabling the latter to carboxylate acyl and acyl-CoA moieties. We separated the BCCP domains into four subfamilies based on more subtle primary structure differences. Members of different BCCP subfamilies often are produced by different types of organisms and are associated with different carboxylases. 相似文献

Biosynthesis of fatty acids is one of the most fundamental biochemical pathways in nature. In bacteria and plant chloroplasts, the committed and rate‐limiting step in fatty acid biosynthesis is catalyzed by a multi‐subunit form of the acetyl‐CoA carboxylase enzyme (ACC). This enzyme carboxylates acetyl‐CoA to produce malonyl‐CoA, which in turn acts as the building block for fatty acid elongation. In Escherichia coli, ACC is comprised of three functional modules: the biotin carboxylase (BC), the biotin carboxyl carrier protein (BCCP) and the carboxyl transferase (CT). Previous data showed that both bacterial and plant BCCP interact with signal transduction proteins belonging to the PII family. Here we show that the GlnB paralogues of the PII proteins from E. coli and Azospirillum brasiliense, but not the GlnK paralogues, can specifically form a ternary complex with the BC‐BCCP components of ACC. This interaction results in ACC inhibition by decreasing the enzyme turnover number. Both the BC‐BCCP‐GlnB interaction and ACC inhibition were relieved by 2‐oxoglutarate and by GlnB uridylylation. We propose that the GlnB protein acts as a 2‐oxoglutarate‐sensitive dissociable regulatory subunit of ACC in Bacteria. 相似文献

Escherichia coli acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACC) is composed of four different protein molecules. These proteins form a large but very unstable complex. Hints of a sub-complex between the biotin carboxylase (BC) and biotin carboxyl carrier protein (BCCP) subunits have been reported in the literature, but the complex was not isolated and thus the protein stoichiometry could not be determined. We report isolation of the BC.BCCP complex. By use of affinity chromatography using two different affinity tags it was shown that the complex consists of a two BCCP molecules per BC molecule. The molar ratio in the complex is the same as the ratio of the subunit proteins synthesized in vivo. We conclude that the complex consists of a dimer of BC plus four BCCP molecules instead of the 2BC.2BCCP complex previously assumed. This subunit ratio allows two conflicting models of the ACC mechanism to be rectified. We also report that the N-terminal 30 or so residues of BCCP are responsible for the interaction of BCCP with BC and that the BC.BCCP complex is a substrate for biotinylation in vitro. 相似文献

Bacterial acetyl-CoA carboxylase is a multifunctional biotin-dependent enzyme that consists of three separate proteins: biotin carboxylase (BC), biotin carboxyl carrier protein (BCCP), and carboxyltransferase (CT). Acetyl-CoA carboxylase is a potentially attractive target for novel antibiotics because it catalyzes the first committed step in fatty acid biosynthesis. In the first half-reaction, BC catalyzes the ATP-dependent carboxylation of BCCP. In the second half-reaction, the carboxyl group is transferred from carboxybiotinylated BCCP to acetyl-CoA to produce malonyl-CoA. A series of structures of BC from several bacteria crystallized in the presence of various ATP analogs is described that addresses three major questions concerning the catalytic mechanism. The structure of BC bound to AMPPNP and the two catalytically essential magnesium ions resolves inconsistencies between the kinetics of active-site BC mutants and previously reported BC structures. Another structure of AMPPNP bound to BC shows the polyphosphate chain folded back on itself, and not in the correct (i.e., extended) conformation for catalysis. This provides the first structural evidence for the hypothesis of substrate-induced synergism, which posits that ATP binds nonproductively to BC in the absence of biotin. The BC homodimer has been proposed to exhibit half-sites reactivity where the active sites alternate or "flip-flop" their catalytic cycles. A crystal structure of BC showed the ATP analog AMPPCF(2)P bound to one subunit while the other subunit was unliganded. The liganded subunit was in the closed or catalytic conformation while the unliganded subunit was in the open conformation. This provides the first structural evidence for half-sites reactivity in BC. 相似文献

Acetyl-CoA carboxylase [ACCase; acetylCoA: carbon dioxide ligase (ADP forming), EC 6.4.1.2] catalyses the ATP-dependent carboxylation of acetylCoA to form malonyl-CoA. We have amplified a fragment of the biotin carboxylase (BC) domain of the Ustilago maydis acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACC1) gene from genomic DNA and used this amplified DNA fragment as a probe to recover the complete gene from a λEMBL3 genomic library. The ACC1 gene has a reading frame of 6555 nucleotides, which is interrupted by a single intron of 80 bb in length. The gene encodes a protein containing 2185 amino acids, with a calculated Mr of 242 530; this is in good agreement with the size of ACCases from other sources. Further identification was based on the position of putative binding sites for acetyl-CoA, ATP, biotin and carboxybiotin found in other ACCases. A single ACC1 allele was disrupted in a diploid wild-type strain. After sporulation of diploid disruptants, no haploid progeny containing a disrupted acc1 allele were recovered, even though an exogenous source of fatty acids was provided. The data indicate that, in U. maydis, ACCase is required for essential cellular processes other than de novo fatty acid biosynthesis. 相似文献

Pyruvate carboxylase (PC) from Bacillus thermodenitrificans was engineered in such a way that the polypeptide chain was divided into two, between the biotin carboxylase (BC) and carboxyl transferase (CT) domains. The two proteins thus formed, PC-(BC) and PC-(CT+BCCP), retained their catalytic activity as assayed by biotin-dependent ATPase and oxamate-dependent oxalacetate decarboxylation, for the former and the latter, respectively. Neither activity was dependent on acetyl-CoA, in sharp contrast to the complete reaction of intact PC. When assessed by gel filtration chromatography, PC-(BC) was found to exist either in dimers or monomers, depending on the protein concentration, while PC-(CT + BCCP) occurred in dimers for the most part. The two proteins do not associate spontaneously or in the presence of acetyl-CoA. Based on these observations, this paper discusses how the tetrameric structure of PC is built up and how acetyl-CoA modulates the protein structure. 相似文献

Streptomyces toxytricini produces lipstatin, a specific inhibitor of pancreatic lipase, which is derived from two fatty acid moieties with eight and
14 carbon atoms. The pccB gene locus in 10.6 kb fragment of S. toxytricini chromosomal DNA contains three genes for acyl-coenzyme A carboxylase (ACCase) complex accA3, pccB, and pccE that are presumed to be involved in secondary metabolism. The pccB gene encoding a β subunit of ACCase [carboxyltransferase (CT)] was identified upstream of pccE gene for a small protein of ε subunit. The accA3 encoding the α subunit of ACCase [biotin carboxylase (BC)] was also identified downstream of pccB gene. When the pccB and pccE genes were inactivated by homologous recombination, the lipstatin production was reduced as much as 80%. In contrast, the
accumulation of another compound, tetradeca-5.8-dienoic acid (the major lipstatin precursor), was 4.5-fold increased in disruptant
compared with wild-type. It implies that PccB of S. toxytricini is involved in the activation of octanoic acid to hexylmalonic acid for lipstatin biosynthesis. 相似文献

The gene encoding the biotin carboxylase subunit of Escherichia coli acetyl-CoA carboxylase. 总被引:22,自引:0,他引:22
We report the molecular cloning and DNA sequence of the gene encoding the biotin carboxylase subunit of Escherichia coli acetyl-CoA carboxylase. The biotin carboxylase gene encodes a protein of 449 residues that is strikingly similar to amino-terminal segments of two biotin-dependent carboxylase proteins, yeast pyruvate carboxylase and the alpha-subunit of rat propionyl-CoA carboxylase. The deduced biotin carboxylase sequence contains a consensus ATP binding site and a cysteine-containing sequence preserved in all sequenced bicarbonate-dependent biotin carboxylases that may play a key catalytic role. The gene encoding the biotin carboxyl carrier protein (BCCP) subunit of acetyl-CoA carboxylase is located upstream of the biotin carboxylase gene and the two genes are cotranscribed. As previously reported by others, the BCCP sequence encoded a protein of 16,688 molecular mass. However, this value is much smaller than that (22,500 daltons) obtained by analysis of the protein. Amino-terminal amino acid sequencing of the purified BCCP protein confirmed the deduced amino acid sequence indicating that BCCP is a protein of atypical physical properties. Northern and primer extension analyses demonstrate that BCCP and biotin carboxylase are transcribed as a single mRNA species that contains an unusually long untranslated leader preceding the BCCP gene. We have also determined the mutational alteration in a previously isolated acetyl-CoA carboxylase (fabE) mutant and show the lesion maps within the BCCP gene and results in a BCCP species defective in acceptance of biotin. Translational fusions of the carboxyl-terminal 110 or 84 (but not 76) amino acids of BCCP to beta-galactosidase resulted in biotinated beta-galactosidase molecules and production of one such fusion was shown to result in derepression of the biotin biosynthetic operon. 相似文献

Pyruvate carboxylase (PC) is a conserved multifunctional enzyme linked to important metabolic diseases. PC homotetramer is arranged in two layers with two opposing monomers per layer. Cryo-EM explores the conformational variability of PC in the presence of different substrates. The results demonstrate that the biotin-carboxyl carrier protein (BCCP) domain localizes near the biotin carboxylase (BC) domain of its own monomer and travels to the carboxyltransferase (CT) domain of the opposite monomer. All density maps show noticeable conformational differences between layers, mainly for the BCCP and BC domains. This asymmetry may be indicative of a coordination mechanism where monomers from different layers catalyze the BC and CT reactions consecutively. A conformational change of the PC tetramerization (PT) domain suggests a new functional role in communication. A long-range communication pathway between subunits in different layers, via interacting PT-PT and BC-BC domains, may be responsible for the cooperativity of PC from Staphylococcus aureus. 相似文献
