Abstract
Acetyl-CoA carboxylase (EC 6.4.1.2) in hepatocytes from meal-fed rats was activated by phorbol myristate acetate (PMA) in a time- and concentration-dependent fashion. This activation can account for the PMA-induced stimulation of de novo fatty acid synthesis. Purified rat-liver acetyl-CoA carboxylase was found to be phosphorylated and activated by protein kinase C, thus providing a possible mechanism for the metabolic action of PMA in intact hepatocytes.Entities:
