ACACA

Acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACC) is a complex multifunctional enzyme system. ACC is a biotin-containing enzyme which catalyzes the carboxylation of acetyl-CoA to malonyl-CoA, the rate-limiting step in fatty acid synthesis. There are two ACC forms, alpha and beta, encoded by two different genes. ACC-alpha is highly enriched in lipogenic tissues. The enzyme is under long term control at the transcriptional and translational levels and under short term regulation by the phosphorylation/dephosphorylation of targeted serine residues and by allosteric transformation by citrate or palmitoyl-CoA. Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants divergent in the 5' sequence and encoding distinct isoforms have been found for this gene.

Interaction

Monomer, homodimer, and homotetramer (PubMed:20952656, PubMed:29899443). Can form filamentous polymers (PubMed:20457939, PubMed:20952656, PubMed:29899443). Interacts in its inactive phosphorylated form with the BRCT domains of BRCA1 which prevents ACACA dephosphorylation and inhibits lipid synthesis (PubMed:12360400, PubMed:16326698, PubMed:18452305, PubMed:29899443). Interacts with MID1IP1; interaction with MID1IP1 promotes oligomerization and increases its activity (PubMed:20457939).
