Abstract
▪ Abstract The family of enzymes involved in lipogenesis is a model system for understanding how a cell adapts to dietary energy in the form of carbohydrate versus energy in the form of triacylglycerol. Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) is unique in this group of enzymes in that it participates in multiple metabolic pathways: reductive biosynthesis, including lipogenesis; protection from oxidative stress; and cellular growth. G6PD activity is enhanced by dietary carbohydrates and is inhibited by dietary polyunsaturated fats. These changes in G6PD activity are a consequence of changes in the expression of the G6PD gene. Nutrients can regulate the expression of genes at both transcriptional and posttranscriptional steps. Most lipogenic enzymes undergo large changes in the rate of gene transcription in response to dietary changes; however, G6PD is regulated at a step subsequent to transcription. This step is involved in the rate of synthesis of the mature mRNA in the nucleus, specifically regulation o...Keywords
