AMPK/Snf1 inhibition of acetyl-CoA carboxylase controls fatty acyl-chain length
Opi1 repressor preferentially binds to C16 rather than C18 acyl-chains in PA
Acyl-chain length tunes Opi1 sequestration to the ER and target gene derepression
AMPK/Snf1 thus uses its effect on acyl-chain length to control Opi1 target genes
