| Research Abstract |
Toward the elucidation of the activation mechanism of acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACC) that catalyzes the rate-limiting step of the fatty-acid biosynthesis, we tried the protein crystallography of the central domain of human ACC (hBCCP1, hBCCP2) and its activation enzyme biotin protein ligase (hBPL). The genes were synthesized for a large-scale expression using E.coli. These proteins were generally expressed as inclusion bodies that could not be solubilized by methods including the denaturation/refolding and the substitution of cysteine with alanine.
