The activities of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase, malic enzyme, fatty acid synthetase and acetyl-CoA carboxylase (extracted with or without phosphatase inhibitor) in rat liver did not vary significantly during 24 h. The hepatic levels of glucose 6-phosphate and malate increased coordinately 3-6 h after the beginning (1900 h) of food intake and were high until morning, whereas the levels of acetyl-CoA and citrate peaked at 1900 h and then decreased. However, it is remarkable that the in vivo incorporation of 3H from tritiated water into fatty acids in liver increased with the level of malonyl-CoA after food intake. Comparing the substrate and effector levels with the Km and Ka values for the enzymes, the levels of acetyl-CoA, malonyl-CoA and citrate appear to limit the enzyme activities. It is suggested that, after food intake, the physiological activity of acetyl-CoA carboxylase was increased with the substrate increase and/or with the catalytic activation with citrate, and consequently, the fatty acid synthetase activity was also increased, whereas the enzyme activities measured under optimum conditions were not.
