  1. ATP citrate synthase - Wikipedia

    • ATP citrate lyase is the primary enzyme responsible for the synthesis of cytosolic acetyl-CoA in many tissues. The enzyme is a tetramer of apparently identical subunits. In animals, the product, acetyl-CoA, is used in several important biosynthetic pathways, including lipogenesis and cholesterogenesis. It is activated by insulin. In plants, ATP citrate lyas… See more

    Overview

    ATP citrate synthase (also ATP citrate lyase (ACLY)) is an enzyme that in animals catalyzes an important step in See more

    Reaction

    ATP citrate lyase is responsible for catalyzing the conversion of citrate and Coenzyme A (CoA) to acetyl-CoA and oxaloacetate, driven by hydrolysis of ATP. In the presence of ATP and CoA, citrate lyase catal… See more

    Location

    The enzyme is cytosolic in plants and animals. See more

    Structure

    The enzyme is composed of two subunits in green plants (including Chlorophyceae, Marchantimorpha, Bryopsida, Pinaceae, monocotyledons, and eudicots), species of fungi, glaucophytes, Chlamydomonas, and prokaryotes… See more

    Pharmacology

    The enzyme's action can be inhibited by the coenzyme A-conjugate of bempedoic acid, a compound which lowers LDL cholesterol in humans. The drug was approved by the Food and Drug Administration in … See more

  1. ATP citrate lyase
    • According to 2 sources
    ATP citrate lyase (ACLY) is an important enzyme linking carbohydrate to lipid metabolism by generating acetyl-CoA from citrate for fatty acid and cholesterol biosynthesis.
    ATP citrate lyase (ACLY) is a cytosolic enzyme that converts mitochondrially derived citrate into acetyl-CoA and oxaloacetate, thereby defining the first step in the cellular fatty acid synthesis pathway; ATP is hydrolyzed concomitantly.
