Acetyl-CoA synthetase

Acs

Acetyl-Coenzyme A synthetase (Acs) is a key enzyme that catalyzes the conversion of acetate to acetyl-CoA (Ac-CoA). As a crucial enzyme in the Wood-Ljungdahl pathway of carbon fixation, acetyl-CoA synthetase has bifunctional roles, using a nickel-containing bimetallic site to combine carbon monoxide with a methyl group, ultimately converting it into acetyl-CoA. Acetyl-CoA is essential in metabolism and energy generation. The activity of ACS is tightly regulated by complex systems, including carbon flux-mediated gene expression and post-translational regulation via the NAD+/sirtuin-dependent pathway.
Acetyl-CoA synthetase can induce Autophagy, and its mediated histone acetylation plays a significant role in maintaining cellular homeostasis and tumor development[1][2][3].

    Acetyl-CoA synthetase
    Acetyl-CoA synthetase (ACS) is a key enzyme that catalyzes the conversion of acetate to acetyl-CoA (Ac-CoA). Acetyl-CoA synthetase catalyzes the formation of thioester bonds between coenzyme A and carboxylic acids, while simultaneously hydrolyzing ATP into AMP and pyrophosphate.

    MMV693183
    		Inhibitor
    MMV693183 is an orally active inhibitor of Plasmodium falciparum acetyl-CoA synthetase (AcAS), with an IC50 of 300 nM against Plasmodium falciparum. MMV693183 exhibits potent inhibitory activity against clinical isolates of malaria parasites, including Artemisinin (HY-B0094)-resistant strains. MMV693183 is metabolized in vivo into the active antimetabolite CoA-MMV693183, which exerts effects of killing asexual blood-stage parasites and blocking transmission to Anopheles mosquitoes by binding to and inhibiting the function of acetyl-CoA synthetase, thereby reducing the levels of acetyl-CoA and 4'-phosphopantetheine. In humanized mouse models, MMV693183 shows favorable in vivo efficacy, drug-like properties, and no significant cytotoxicity or off-target activity against human cells. MMV693183 is widely used in malaria-related research as a parasiticide and metabolic disruptor.
