What catabolic process leads to the formation of ketone bodies? What are the compounds that make up ketone bodies? What nutrient is used to form ketones or ketone bodies? Why can't acetyl-CoA be converted to glucose? What are the inputs and outputs of acetyl CoA formation?

Formation of Ketone Bodies from acetyl-CoA(1)|bodies|formation|from|of|ketone|acetyl-coaThe acetyl-CoA produced by mitochondrial beta-oxidation of fatty acids enters the Kreb's cycle to produce energy, but that is not the only fate of acetyl-CoA. In live
Alcohol acetyltransferase responsible for the formation of acetate esters during beer fermentation was found to be localized at the cell membrane of brewers' yeast. This cell membrane-bound enzyme was purified 120-fold by solubilization with Triton X-100, gel filtration on a Sepharose 6B column and...
Acetyl-CoA synthetase (ACS) enzyme carries an irreversible reaction that converts acetate to acetyl-CoA, which can be utilized directly for fatty acid synthesis, oxidized to carbon dioxide in tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle to make energy (ATP), or be converted in the glyoxylate cycle to succina...
Instead, nuclei close to the tissue surface have more nuclear ACSS2, which converts acetate into acetyl-CoA. We currently do not know why surface nuclei have more nuclear ACSS2, and further studies will be required to elucidate this mechanism. It will also be interesting to study whether ...
AT-1/SLC33A1 is a key member of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) acetylation machinery, transporting acetyl-CoA from the cytosol into the ER lumen where acetyl-CoA serves as the acetyl-group donor for Nε-lysine acetylation. Dysfunctional ER acetylation, a
using the solved co-crystal structures of hP/CAF bound to CoA (33) (A), yeast HAT1 bound to AcCoA (30) (B), SmAAT bound to CoA (41) (C), and arylalkylamine-N-acetyltransferase (AANAT or serotonin-N-acetyltransferase) bound to the bisubstrate analog CoA-S-acetyltryptamine (42) (...
The acetyl-CoA synthetase Acs2, which catalyses acetyl-CoA production from acetate, is an integral subunit of the serine-responsive SAM-containing metabolic enzyme (SESAME) complex, but the precise function of Acs2 within the SESAME complex remains unclear. Here, using budding yeast, we show ...
In some embodiments, the formation of acetoacetyl-CoA from acetyl-CoA is catalyzed by an acetoacetyl-CoA synthase (AACS; alternately referred to as an acetyl-CoA:malonyl-CoA acyltransferase). The reaction catalyzed by AACS is thermodynamically more favorable than the reaction catalyzed by the ...
