Description : Aconitase 1, also known as iron regulatory element binding protein 1 (IREB1), is a cytosolic protein which binds to iron-responsive elements (IREs). IREs are stem-loop structures found in the 5 UTR of ferritin mRNA, and in the 3 UTR of transferrin receptor mRNA. The iron-induced binding to the IRE results in repression of translation of ferritin mRNA, and inhibition of degradation of the otherwise rapidly degrading transferrin receptor mRNA. Thus, IREB1 plays a central role in cellular iron homeostasis. It was also shown to have aconitase activity, and hence grouped with the aconitase family of enzymes.

Ask a question
Where is ACO1 found? 06/20/2020

ACO1 is found in the mitochondria of eukaryotic cells and in the cytosol of prokaryotic cells.

How is ACO1 assay performed? 05/01/2020

ACO1 assays typically measure the rate of citrate isomerization to isocitrate in the presence of aconitase. This can be done either in vitro using purified ACO1 enzyme, or in a cellular or tissue lysate. The reaction is typically monitored by measuring the absorbance of NADP+ at a wavelength of 340 nm, which decreases as the isocitrate generated in the reaction produces NADPH, a key cofactor in many cellular processes.

What does ACO1 stand for? 04/24/2020

How is ACO1 deficiency related to human diseases? 04/17/2020

Deficiency in ACO1 is a rare genetic disorder that is linked to iron overload and neurodegeneration. This is because ACO1 is involved in the regulation of iron metabolism and the production of antioxidants that protect against oxidative stress. Inherited mutations in the ACO1 gene result in reduced activity of the enzyme, which can alter iron homeostasis and lead to conditions such as hereditary hemochromatosis and Friedreich ataxia.

How is ACO1 regulated? 03/22/2019

ACO1 is regulated by a variety of factors, including substrate availability, metal ions such as iron and zinc, post-translational modifications, and interactions with other proteins in cellular signaling pathways.

What is the significance of ACO1 in cancer? 03/11/2016

Recent studies have shown that ACO1 plays a role in cancer progression by regulating cellular metabolism, oxidative stress, and DNA damage repair. ACO1 is overexpressed in several types of cancer, including breast and pancreatic cancer, and has been identified as a potential therapeutic target for cancer treatment. Inhibiting ACO1 can lead to metabolic alterations that impair cancer cell growth and survival.

What is the function of ACO1? 12/26/2015

ACO1 functions as an enzyme that catalyzes the conversion of citrate to isocitrate in the TCA cycle. It also regulates iron homeostasis in cells

What happens when ACO1 is deficient or not functioning properly? 07/22/2015

When ACO1 is deficient or not functioning properly, it can lead to a variety of health issues. Mutations in the gene that encodes for ACO1 have been linked to hereditary hemochromatosis, a condition characterized by excessive iron absorption and accumulation in organs. ACO1 deficiency has also been associated with oxidative stress, metabolic disorders, and neurodegenerative diseases.
