Summary	An acetyl-CoA synthetase found in the mitochondrial matrix has been characterized in both cow and mouse. It is primarily a cardiac enzyme which produces acetyl-CoA mainly for the oxidation of acetate. ACSS1 is structurally similar to the cow and mouse proteins and therefore may serve a similar function in humans. Important for maintaining normal body temperature during fasting and for energy homeostasis. Essential for energy expenditure under ketogenic conditions By similarity. Converts acetate to acetyl-CoA so that it can be used for oxidation through the tricarboxylic cycle to produce ATP and CO2.Reversibly acetylated on Lys-642. The acetyl-CoA synthase activity is inhibited by acetylation and activated by deacetylation.
