Changes in the concentration of malonyl-CoA in many tissues have been related to
alterations in the activity of acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACC), the rate-limiting enzyme in its
formation. In contrast, little is known about the physiological role of malonyl-CoA
decarboxylase (MCD), an enzyme responsible for malonyl-CoA catabolism. In this study, we
examined the effects of voluntary exercise on MCD activity in rat liver, skeletal muscle, and
adipose tissue. In addition, the activity ofsn-glycerol-3-phosphate acyltransferase (GPAT) …
