We have characterized a new, membrane-associated acyl-CoA synthetase (ACS), termed bubblegum-related protein (BGR), which upon functional analysis demonstrated ACS activity capable of activating long- and very long-chain fatty acids. By multiple tissue RNA array and Northern blot analyses, human BGR mRNA was exclusively detected in testes. Murine Bgr mRNA was specifically expressed in pubertal and adult testes and was further demonstrated to be enriched in germ cells and Sertoli cells while present at a lower level in Leydig cells both by in situ hybridization and cell type fractionation. The complex 5'-end of the BGR mRNA appears to underlie translational control leading to differential utilization of alternative translation start sites. Thus, the BGR gene expands the bubblegum ACS family with a testes-specific, developmentally regulated member that may play a role in spermatogenesis. << Less

Discovery of an arachidonoyl coenzyme A synthetase in human platelets.
Wilson D.B., Prescott S.M., Majerus P.W.
Platelets contain small amounts of a variety of free fatty acids but essentially no free arachidonate.

Platelets contain small amounts of a variety of free fatty acids but essentially no free arachidonate. When free fatty acids are incubated with platelets, there is preferential incorporation of arachidonic acid and 8,-11,14-eicosatrienoic acid compared to other fatty acids. We now explain these findings by the discovery that platelets contain two long chain acyl-CoA synthetases. One shows activity with a range of different fatty acids, similar to long chain acyl-CoA synthetases studied previously. A crude platelet membrane preparation contains this enzyme that catalyzes the formation of 0.75 nmol of oleoyl-CoA/min/10(9) platelets. The other enzyme is specific for the prostaglandin precursors arachidonic acid and 8,11,14-eicosatrienoic acid. Based on the ability of fatty acids to inhibit arachidonate and 8,11,14-eicosatrienoate activation, we conclude that other fatty acids including linoleic, 5,8,11-eicosatrienoic, and oleic acids are not substrates for the enzyme. Platelet membranes catalyze formation of 2.9 nmol of arachidonoyl-CoA/min/10(9) platelets and 2.5 nmol of 8,11,14-eicosatrienoyl-CoA/min/10(9) platelets. Arachidonoyl-CoA synthetase has optimal activity at pH 8 and requires ATP (Km = 0.5 mM), Mg2+ (Km = 2.5 mM), CoA (Km = 0.13 mM), and arachidonic acid (Km = 0.03 mM). We propose that the arachidonate-specific acyl-CoA synthetase may control the level of free arachidonic acid in platelets, limiting prostaglandin synthesis by the unstimulated cell and capturing free arachidonate from extracellular sources. << Less

Long-chain acyl-CoA synthetase 4 modulates prostaglandin E(2) release from human arterial smooth muscle cells.

Long-chain acyl-CoA synthetases (ACSLs) catalyze the thioesterification of long-chain FAs into their acyl-CoA derivatives. Purified ACSL4 is an arachidonic acid (20:4)-preferring ACSL isoform, and ACSL4 is therefore a probable regulator of lipid mediator production in intact cells. Eicosanoids play important roles in vascular homeostasis and disease, yet the role of ACSL4 in vascular cells is largely unknown. In the present study, the ACSL4 splice variant expressed in human arterial smooth muscle cells (SMCs) was identified as variant 1. To investigate the function of ACSL4 in SMCs, ACSL4 variant 1 was overexpressed, knocked-down by small interfering RNA, or its enzymatic activity acutely inhibited in these cells. Overexpression of ACSL4 resulted in a markedly increased synthesis of arachidonoyl-CoA, increased 20:4 incorporation into phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylinositol, and triacylglycerol, and reduced cellular levels of unesterified 20:4. Accordingly, secretion of prostaglandin E₂ (PGE₂) was blunted in ACSL4-overexpressing SMCs compared with controls. Conversely, acute pharmacological inhibition of ACSL4 activity resulted in increased release of PGE₂. However, long-term downregulation of ACSL4 resulted in markedly reduced PGE₂ secretion. Thus, ACSL4 modulates PGE₂ release from human SMCs. ACSL4 may regulate a number of processes dependent on the release of arachidonic acid-derived lipid mediators in the arterial wall. << Less

Isolation and characterization of a rat brain cDNA identified a third acyl-CoA synthetase (ACS) designated ACS3. The deduced amino acid sequence of the cDNA revealed that ACS3 consists of 720 amino acids and exhibits a structural architecture common to ACSs from various origins. ACS3 expressed in COS cells was purified to near homogeneity. The purified ACS3 resolved by SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis into two major proteins of 79 and 80 kDa. Cell-free translation of a synthetic mRNA encoding the entire region of ACS3 revealed that the two isoforms were derived from the same mRNA. The purified ACS3 utilizes laurate and myristate most efficiently among C8-C22 saturated fatty acids and arachidonate and eicosapentaenoate among C16-C20 unsaturated fatty acids. Northern blot analysis revealed that ACS3 mRNA is most abundant in brain and, to a much lesser extent, in lung, adrenal gland, kidney, and small intestine. During the development of the rat brain, expression of ACS3 mRNA reached a maximum level at 15 days after birth and then declined gradually to 10% of the maximum in the adult brain. << Less

The fatty acid transport protein (FATP) family is a group of proteins that are predicted to be components of specific fatty acid trafficking pathways. In mammalian systems, six different isoforms have been identified, which function in the import of exogenous fatty acids or in the activation of very long-chain fatty acids. This has led to controversy as to whether these proteins function as membrane-bound fatty acid transporters or as acyl-CoA synthetases, which activate long-chain fatty acids concomitant with transport. The yeast FATP orthologue, Fat1p, is a dual functional protein and is required for both the import of long-chain fatty acids and the activation of very long-chain fatty acids; these activities intrinsic to Fat1p are separable functions. To more precisely define the roles of the different mammalian isoforms in fatty acid trafficking, the six murine proteins (mmFATP1-6) were expressed and characterized in a genetically defined yeast strain, which cannot transport long-chain fatty acids and has reduced long-chain acyl-CoA synthetase activity (fat1Delta faa1Delta). Each isoform was evaluated for fatty acid transport, fatty acid activation (using C18:1, C20:4, and C24:0 as substrates), and accumulation of very long-chain fatty acids. Murine FATP1, -2, and -4 complemented the defects in fatty acid transport and very long-chain fatty acid activation associated with a deletion of the yeast FAT1 gene; mmFATP3, -5, and -6 did not complement the transport function even though each was localized to the yeast plasma membrane. Both mmFATP3 and -6 activated C20:4 and C20:4, while the expression of mmFATP5 did not substantially increase acyl-CoA synthetases activities using the substrates tested. These data support the conclusion that the different mmFATP isoforms play unique roles in fatty acid trafficking, including the transport of exogenous long-chain fatty acids. << Less

Functional domains of the fatty acid transport proteins: studies using protein chimeras.

Fatty acid transport proteins (FATP) function in fatty acid trafficking pathways, several of which have been shown to participate in the transport of exogenous fatty acids into the cell. Members of this protein family also function as acyl CoA synthetases with specificity towards very long chain fatty acids or bile acids. These proteins have two identifying sequence motifs: The ATP/AMP motif, an approximately 100 amino acid segment required for ATP binding and common to members of the adenylate-forming super family of proteins, and the FATP/VLACS motif that consists of approximately 50 amino acid residues and is restricted to members of the FATP family. This latter motif has been implicated in fatty acid transport in the yeast FATP orthologue Fat1p. In the present studies using a yeast strain containing deletions in FAT1 (encoding Fat1p) and FAA1 (encoding the major acyl CoA synthetase (Acsl) Faa1p) as an experimental platform, the phenotypic and functional properties of specific murine FATP1-FATP4 and FATP6-FATP4 protein chimeras were evaluated in order to define elements within these proteins that further distinguish the fatty acid transport and activation functions. As expected from previous work FATP1 and FATP4 were functional in the fatty acid transport pathway, while and FATP6 was not. All three isoforms were able to activate the very long chain fatty acids arachidonate (C(20:4)) and lignocerate (C(24:0)), but with distinguishing activities between saturated and highly unsaturated ligands. A 73 amino acid segment common to FATP1 and FATP4 and between the ATP/AMP and FATP/VLACS motifs was identified by studying the chimeras, which is hypothesized to contribute to the transport function. << Less

Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer deaths worldwide. In the United States, only one in six lung cancer patients survives five years after diagnosis. These statistics may improve if new therapeutic targets are identified. We previously reported that an enzyme of fatty acid metabolism, very long-chain acyl-CoA synthetase 3 (ACSVL3), is overexpressed in malignant glioma, and that depleting glioblastoma cells of ACSVL3 diminishes their malignant properties. To determine whether ACSVL3 expression was also increased in lung cancer, we studied tumor histologic sections and lung cancer cell lines. Immunohistochemical analysis of normal human lung showed moderate ACSVL3 expression only in bronchial epithelial cells. In contrast, all of 69 different lung tumors tested, including adeno-, squamous cell, large cell, and small cell carcinomas, had robustly elevated ACSVL3 levels. Western blot analysis of lung cancer cell lines derived from these tumor types also had significantly increased ACSVL3 protein compared to normal bronchial epithelial cells. Decreasing the growth rate of lung cancer cell lines did not change ACSVL3 expression. However, knocking down ACSVL3 expression by RNA interference reduced cell growth rates in culture by 65-76%, and the ability of tumor cells to form colonies in soft agar suspension by 65-80%. We also conducted studies to gain a better understanding of the biochemical properties of human ACSVL3. ACSVL3 mRNA was detected in many human tissues, but the expression pattern differed somewhat from that of the mouse. The enzyme activated long- and very long-chain saturated fatty acid substrates, as well as long-chain mono- and polyunsaturated fatty acids to their respective coenzyme A derivatives. Endogenous human ACSVL3 protein was found in a punctate subcellular compartment that partially colocalized with mitochondria as determined by immunofluorescence microscopy and subcellular fractionation. From these studies, we conclude that ACSVL3 is a promising new therapeutic target in lung cancer. << Less

Long-chain acyl-CoA synthetase isoforms differ in preferences for eicosanoid species and long-chain fatty acids.
Klett E.L., Chen S., Yechoor A., Lih F.B., Coleman R.A.

Because the signaling eicosanoids, epoxyeicosatrienoic acids (EETs) and HETEs, are esterified to membrane phospholipids, we asked which long-chain acyl-CoA synthetase (ACSL) isoforms would activate these molecules and whether the apparent FA substrate preferences of each ACSL isoform might differ depending on whether it was assayed in mammalian cell membranes or as a purified bacterial recombinant protein. We found that all five ACSL isoforms were able to use EETs and HETEs as substrates and showed by LC-MS/MS that ACSLs produce EET-CoAs. We found differences in substrate preference between ACS assays performed in COS7 cell membranes and recombinant purified proteins. Similarly, preferences and Michaelis-Menten kinetics for long-chain FAs were distinctive. Substrate preferences identified for the purified ACSLs did not correspond to those observed in ACSL-deficient mouse models. Taken together, these data support the concept that each ACSL isoform exhibits a distinct substrate preference, but apparent substrate specificities depend upon multiple factors including membrane character, coactivators, inhibitors, protein interactions, and posttranslational modification. << Less
