Department of Biochemistry, Faculty of Chemistry, Universidad Complutense, Madrid, Spain.

Prolonged physical exercise increased the activity of carnitine palmitoyltransferase I in rat heart and skeletal muscle mitochondria, whereas enzyme sensitivity to inhibition by malonyl-CoA remained unchanged. Nevertheless, inhibition of carnitine palmitoyltransferase I activity by small decreases in pH was attenuated in heart and skeletal muscle mitochondria from exercised animals. Liver enzyme did not suffer any alteration by endurance exercise.

D008316	Malonyl Coenzyme A	A coenzyme A derivative which plays a key role in the fatty acid synthesis in the cytoplasmic and microsomal systems.	Malonyl CoA,CoA, Malonyl,Coenzyme A, Malonyl
D008929	Mitochondria, Heart	The mitochondria of the myocardium.	Heart Mitochondria,Myocardial Mitochondria,Mitochondrion, Heart,Heart Mitochondrion,Mitochondria, Myocardial
D008930	Mitochondria, Liver	Mitochondria in hepatocytes. As in all mitochondria, there are an outer membrane and an inner membrane, together creating two separate mitochondrial compartments: the internal matrix space and a much narrower intermembrane space. In the liver mitochondrion, an estimated 67% of the total mitochondrial proteins is located in the matrix.
