m6A Target Gene Information

General Information of the m6A Target Gene (ID: M6ATAR00168)
Target Name Acetyl-CoA carboxylase 1 (ACC1/ACACA)
Synonyms
ACC1; Acetyl-Coenzyme A carboxylase alpha; ACC-alpha; ACAC; ACC1; ACCA
    Click to Show/Hide
Gene Name ACACA
Chromosomal Location 17q12
Function
Cytosolic enzyme that catalyzes the carboxylation of acetyl-CoA to malonyl-CoA, the first and rate-limiting step of de novo fatty acid biosynthesis. This is a 2 steps reaction starting with the ATP-dependent carboxylation of the biotin carried by the biotin carboxyl carrier (BCC) domain followed by the transfer of the carboxyl group from carboxylated biotin to acetyl-CoA.

Experiment 1 Reporting the m6A Methylation Regulator of This Target Gene [1]
Response Summary Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is characterized by lack of insulin, insulin resistance and high blood sugar. METTL3 silence decreased the m6A methylated and total mRNA level of Fatty acid synthase (Fasn), subsequently inhibited fatty acid metabolism. The expression of Acetyl-CoA carboxylase 1 (ACC1/ACACA), Acly, Dgat2, Ehhadh, Fasn, Foxo, Pgc1a and Sirt1, which are critical to the regulation of fatty acid synthesis and oxidation were dramatically decreased in livers of hepatocyte-specific METTL3 knockout mice.
