Application

S-Acetyl-coenzyme A synthetase from baker′s yeast (S. cerevisiae) has been used in the synthesis of adenosine 5′-tetraphosphate and adenosine 5′-pentaphosphate.
S-Acetyl-coenzyme A synthetase may be used to study various metabolic pathways, such as glycolysis, gluconeogenesis, pyruvate metabolism and CO2 fixation. It may also be used in gene expression studies.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Acetyl-coenzyme A synthetase catalyzes the production of acetyl-CoA. It is involved in histone acetylation in the nucleus. It may be involved in the growth of nonfermentable carbon sources such as glycerol. Acetyl-coenzyme A synthetase is induced by acetate, acetaldehyde and ethanol .

Other Notes

One unit will form 1.0 μmole of S-acetyl coenzyme A from acetate, ATP, and coenzyme A per min at pH 7.5 at 37 °C.

Recent proteomics studies have revealed that protein acetylation is an abundant and evolutionarily conserved post-translational modification from prokaryotes to eukaryotes. Although an astonishing number of acetylated proteins have been identified in those studies, the acetyltransferases that target these proteins remain

N-lysine acetylation is a posttranslational modification that has been well studied in eukaryotes and is likely widespread in prokaryotes as well. The central metabolic enzyme acetyl-CoA synthetase is regulated in both bacteria and eukaryotes by acetylation of a conserved lysine

In the bacterium Salmonella enterica, the CobB sirtuin protein deacetylase and the Gcn5-related N(ε)-acetyltransferase (GNAT) Pat control carbon utilization and metabolic flux via N(ε)-lysine acetylation/deacetylation of metabolic enzymes. To date, the S. enterica Pat (SePat) acetyltransferase has not been biochemically

Nickel-containing carbon monoxide dehydrogenases, acetyl-CoA synthases, nickel-iron hydrogenases, and diron hydrogenases are distinct metalloenzymes yet they share a number of important characteristics. All are O(2)-sensitive, with active-sites composed of iron and/or nickel ions coordinated primarily by sulfur ligands. In each

The circadian clock regulates a wide range of physiological and metabolic processes, and its disruption leads to metabolic disorders such as diabetes and obesity. Accumulating evidence reveals that the circadian clock regulates levels of metabolites that, in turn, may regulate
