Trypanosoma brucei: inhibition of acetyl-CoA carboxylase by haloxyfop.
Trypanosoma brucei, a eukaryotic pathogen that causes African sleeping sickness in humans and nagana in cattle, depends on the enzyme acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACC) for full virulence in mice. ACC produces malonyl-CoA, the two carbon donor for fatty acid synthesis. We assessed the effect of haloxyfop, an aryloxyphenoxypropionate herbicide inhibitor of plastid ACCs in many plants as well as Toxoplasma gondii, on T. brucei ACC activity and growth in culture. Haloxyfop inhibited TbACC in cell lysate (EC(50) 67 μM), despite the presence of an amino acid motif typically associated with resistance. Haloxyfop also reduced growth of bloodstream and procyclic form parasites (EC(50) of 0.8 and 1.2 mM). However, the effect on growth was likely due to off-target effects because haloxyfop treatment had no effect on fatty acid elongation or incorporation into complex lipids in vivo.

Use of plant cell cultures to study graminicide effects on lipid metabolism.
Graminicides belonging to the cyclohexanedione and aryloxyphenoxypropionate classes are well established to act by disrupting acyl lipid biosynthesis via specific inhibition of acetyl-CoA carboxylase. Species of grass inherently resistant to such herbicides, or biotypes of grassy weed species which display acquired resistance to recommended rates of graminicide application, are known to possess an altered plastidic multifunctional acetyl-CoA carboxylase showing reduced sensitivity to these herbicides in vitro. Studies reported here demonstrate that cell suspension cultures of maize, a graminicide-sensitive species and Poa annua, a graminicide-insensitive species, display a similar differential sensitivity of acyl lipid biosynthesis as tissue from corresponding intact plants. Acyl lipid biosynthesis in P. annua can be inhibited if sufficiently high concentrations of graminicide are used. The major plastidic form and the minor cytosolic forms of acetyl-CoA carboxylase were successfully purified from maize cell suspensions, were compared to those from leaf tissue and were shown to be differentially inhibited by graminicides in a similar manner to their counterparts from leaf tissue. These studies demonstrate that cell suspensions are useful for studying the mode of action of graminicides, especially in view of the limited amount of material obtainable from many grassy species which are very fine-growing.
