Anti-Acetyl-Coenzyme A Synthetase, Cytoplasmic (Acetyl-CoA Synthetase, AceCS1, AceCS, ACS, ACSA, Acy

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). Applications: Suitable for use in Western Blot and Immunoprecipitation. Other applications not tested. Recommended Dilution: Western Blot: 1:1000, incubate membrane with diluted primary antibody in 5% BSA, 1X TBS, 0.1% Tween 20 at 4°C with gentle shaking, overnight., Immunoprecipitation: 1:50, Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher.
