Effects of glucagon and forskolin on the phosphorylation and changes of activity of carnitine palmitoyltransferase (CPT) have been studied in isolated rat hepatocytes using anti-CPT immunoglobulin. When the activity was determined in lysed hepatocytes after glucagon or forskolin treatment, it was found to be stimulated 30-80% mainly through increased affinity for palmitoyl-CoA. By SDS electrophoresis of the immunoprecipitates, CPT subunit (Mr 69000) was noted to be phosphorylated 4-5-fold with glucagon (1.2 X 10(-7) M) and forskolin (0.1 mM) over control. These results indicate that hepatic ketogenesis is regulated with glucagon by phosphorylation of CPT through cAMP-dependent protein kinase.
