Synthesis pass · prose summary of the discoveries below

CPT1B is the muscle-type carnitine palmitoyltransferase I that catalyzes the rate-limiting step of mitochondrial long-chain fatty acid β-oxidation in heart and skeletal muscle by transferring acyl groups from acyl-CoA to carnitine (PMID:12015320, PMID:34330275). Its enzymatic activity is allosterically inhibited by malonyl-CoA, and a knock-in mouse expressing a malonyl-CoA–insensitive mutant (E3A) shows nearly twofold elevated cardiac fatty acid oxidation with compensatory transcriptional downregulation of FAO genes (PMID:29635338). Post-translationally, prolyl hydroxylation at P295 by PHD2/3 is required for CPT1B interaction with VDAC1 and for functional long-chain fatty acid oxidation in cardiomyocytes (PMID:34610308). CPT1B transcription is regulated by a network of activators and repressors—including MEF2A/HDAC5, EZH2-mediated H3K27me3, AR, MITF, ZNF263, and SMAD3—and in sperm mitochondria, TEX44 physically modulates CPT1B activity to limit ROS production, with germ-cell-specific Cpt1b knockout causing mitochondrial sheath defects and impaired sperm motility (PMID:25213552, PMID:31735087, PMID:40849303).

2002 CPT1B (muscle-type carnitine palmitoyltransferase I) encodes a key enzyme controlling beta-oxidation of long-chain fatty acids in heart and skeletal muscle; the gene has two promoters in humans, mice, sheep, and rats, and splice variants in the coding region do not produce CPT1 enzymatic activity when expressed in Pichia pastoris, arguing against splice variation as a mechanism of malonyl-CoA sensitivity modulation. cDNA/genomic sequencing, expression in Pichia pastoris (in vitro enzymatic activity assay), fluorescent in situ hybridization The Journal of biological chemistry High 12015320
