Mechanisms of regulation of acetyl-CoA carboxylase
One of the major physiological responses to insulin secretion is the activation of lipogenesis in target tissues (principally fat and liver). As acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACC) is the rate limiting enzyme in fatty acid synthesis, the mechanisms involved in the short term regulation of this enzyme repre...
