Purification, characterization, and ontogeny of acetyl-CoA carboxylase isozyme of chick embryo brain.
Acetyl-CoA carboxylase catalyzes the first committed step in the synthesis of fatty acids. Because fatty acids are required during myelination in the developing brain, it was proposed that the level of acetyl-CoA carboxylase may be highest in embryonic brain. The presence of acetyl-CoA carboxylase a...
