Differential inhibition of ketogenesis by malonyl-CoA in mitochondria from fed and starved rats. 1980

G A Cook, and D A Otto, and N W Cornell

Rates of ketogenesis in mitochondria from fed or starved rats were identical at optimal substrate concentrations, but responded differently to inhibition by malonyl-CoA. Kinetic data suggest that the K1 for malonyl-CoA is greater in the starved animal. These results indicate that, for the regulation of ketogenesis in the starved state, the lower sensitivity of carnitine palmitoyltransferase to inhibition by malonyl-CoA may be more important than the concentration of malonyl-CoA.

D008297	Male		Males
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
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.
