Specificity / Sensitivity
AceCS1 (D19C6) Rabbit Monoclonal Antibody detects endogenous levels of total cytoplasmic acetyl-CoA synthetase (AceCS1).
Species Reactivity: Human, Mouse, Rat, Monkey
Source / Purification
Monoclonal antibody is produced by immunizing animals with a synthetic peptide corresponding to residues surrounding Glu49 of human cytoplasmic acetyl-CoA synthetase (AceCS1) protein.
Background
Cytoplasmic acetyl-CoA synthetase (AceCS1) catalyzes the conversion of acetate and CoA to acetyl-CoA (1, 2). Acetyl-CoA synthesized by AceCS1 is used for fatty acid and lipid biosynthesis (1, 2). Studies suggest that this enzyme is regulated by sterol regulatory element-binding proteins (2). It was also shown that this enzyme is acetylated by protein acetyltransferases in cells (3, 4). SIRT1 deacetylates this enzyme at Lys661 resulting in its activation and the increase of fatty acid synthesis (3, 4).
