Glucose regulation of the acetyl-CoA carboxylase promoter PI in rat hepatocytes

Abstract

The rat acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACC) alpha gene is transcribed from two promoters, denoted PI and PII, that direct regulated expression in a tissue-specific manner. Induction of ACC, the rate-controlling enzyme of fatty acid biosynthesis, occurs in the liver in response to feeding of a high carbohydrate, low fat diet, conditions that favor enhanced lipogenesis. This induction is mainly due to increases in PI promoter activity. We have used primary cultured hepatocytes from the rat to investigate glucose regulation of ACC expression. Glucose and insulin synergistically activated expression of ACC mRNAs transcribed from the PI promoter with little or no effect on PII mRNAs. Glucose treatment stimulated PI promoter activity in transfection assays and a glucose-regulated element was identified (-126/-102), homologous to those previously described in other responsive genes, including l-type pyruvate kinase, S(14) and fatty acid synthase. Mutation of this element eliminated the response to glucose. This region of the ACC PI promoter was able to bind a liver nuclear factor designated ChoRF that interacts with other conserved glucose-regulated elements. This ACC PI element is also capable of conferring a strong response to glucose when...Continue Reading
