Acetyl-CoA carboxylases (ACCs) are biotin-dependent enzymes that catalyze the carboxylation of acetyl-CoA to generate malonyl-CoA, which is used as a two-carbon building block for producing fatty acids and polyketides. 1 In humans, ACC1 is found in lipogenic tissues and controls the first and rate-limiting step of de novo fatty acid biosynthesis, while ACC2 is found in muscles and liver and controls the inhibition of fatty acid oxidation in mitochondria. ACC activity is under tight regulations, at the transcriptional, translational, and posttranslational levels, and those for human ACC1 include inhibition by phosphorylation, product inhibition by malonyl-CoA, feedforward activation by citrate, and feedback inhibition by palmitoyl-CoA. Especially, citrate was observed to promote the formation of animal ACC1 filaments nearly 50 years ago, although the molecular basis of how this polymerization can activate ACC1 was not known. ACCs contain two separate catalytic activities, biotin carboxylase (BC) and carboxyltransferase (CT), with biotin linked to biotin carboxyl carrier protein (BCCP). 1 Most eukaryotic ACCs are∼ 250 kDa, single-chain, multidomain enzymes and function as dimers and higher oligomers. The BC domain is located at the N-terminus, followed by the BT (BC− CT interaction) and BCCP domains, and the CT (with N and C domains) is at the C-terminus (Figure 1 A). The central region is unique to eukaryotic ACCs. There is extensive structural knowledge on the BC, CT, and BCCP components of ACCs. 1 The first molecular insights into the eukaryotic ACC holoenzyme were provided by the structure of yeast ACC, 2 which shares 50% sequence identity with human ACC1. The 500 kDa yeast ACC dimer is in the shape of a quarter disk, with a BC dimer near the center of the disk and CT dimer at the edge (Figure 1 B). The central region of ACC (ACC central, AC) contains five domains, AC1− AC5, and they are located at the sides of the structure, with no direct contribution to BC or CT active sites. This region likely serves as a scaffold, holding the two active sites in the correct position for catalysis. The two active sites are separated by 80 Å, and BCCP and its biotin translocate between them during catalysis (swinging-domain model). 1The CT dimer in ACC has an extensive interface between the two monomers. In contrast, the BC dimer is less stable and is a weak link in the ACC dimer. In fact, the BC domain alone has extensive conformational changes in the active site, making it catalytically inactive, as well as in the dimer interface, creating a pocket that allows the recognition of ACC phosphorylation and small molecules. 2 Electron microscopy studies showed that the yeast ACC dimer primarily exists in a continuum of “open” states in a typical buffer, where the BC dimer is dissociated, 3 and these open states are catalytically inactive. Interestingly, citrate promotes the “closed”, active form of the holoenzyme, even though citrate is not known to activate yeast ACC. Overall, these data demonstrate substantial conformational dynamics in the ACC holoenzyme and suggest a model where phosphorylation and small molecules that inhibit ACC promote the open form of the dimer, for example by stabilizing the BC monomer (Figure 2 A). 3 The recent cryo-electron microscopy structure of dephosphorylated human ACC1 filament formed in the presence of citrate (ACC1-citrate filament) is a major breakthrough in the field. 4 It is also a tour de force study technologically,
