What is Inter-organelle cross-talk supports acetyl-coenzyme A homeostasis and lipogenesis under metabolic stress about?

Proliferating cells rely on acetyl-CoA to support membrane biogenesis and acetylation. Several organelle-specific pathways are available for provision of acetyl-CoA as nutrient availability fluctuates, so understanding how cells maintain acetyl-CoA homeostasis under such stresses is critically important. To this end, we applied ^13^C isotope tracing cell lines deficient in these mitochondrial [ATP-citrate lyase (ACLY)]–, cytosolic [acetyl-CoA synthetase (ACSS2)]–, and peroxisomal [peroxisomal biogenesis factor 5 (PEX5)]–dependent pathways. ACLY knockout in multiple cell lines reduced fatty acid synthesis and increased reliance on extracellular lipids or acetate. Knockout of both ACLY and ACSS2 (DKO) severely stunted but did not entirely block proliferation, suggesting that alternate pathways can support acetyl-CoA homeostasis. Metabolic tracing and PEX5 knockout studies link peroxisomal oxidation of exogenous lipids as a major source of acetyl-CoA for lipogenesis and histone acetylation in cells lacking ACLY, highlighting a role for inter-organelle cross-talk in supporting cell survival in response to nutrient fluctuations.
