General Information

General Information Comment Organism
physiological function in the murine cardiomyocyte cytosol, reverse CrAT activity (producing acetyl-CoA) is higher compared with the liver. The heart displays a lower reverse CrAT Km for CoA compared with the liver. Cytosolic reverse CrAT accounts for 4.6% of total activity in heart tissue and 12.7% in H9C2 cells, while highly purified heart cytosolic fractions show significant CrAT protein levels. Acetyl-CoA carboxylase ACC2-knockout mouse hearts show decreased CrAT protein levels and activity, associated with increased palmitate oxidation and acetyl-CoA/CoA ratio compared with controls. Feeding mice a high-fat diet for 10 weeks increases cardiac CrAT protein levels and activity, associated with a reduced acetyl-CoA/CoA ratio and glucose oxidation Mus musculus
