Prior to 2010, the CMA exam was organized into four parts: Business Analysis, Management Accounting and Reporting, Strategic Management and Decision Analysis. Since 2010, the exam has been condensed into two four-hour parts, covering largely

352-471: A role for CMA in stem cell function. CMA activity is upregulated during differentiation of embryonic stem cells and contributed to the degradation of IDH1 and Plin2. CMA activity has been shown to be modulated through retinoic acid receptor alpha signaling and is specifically activated by designed all-trans retinoic acid derivatives in cultured cells. CMA is also responsible for the selective removal of damaged and no-longer-functional proteins. This function

440-504: Is activated during T cell activation due to increased expression of the CMA receptor LAMP-2A. CMA is essential for T cell activation through the degradation of negative regulators of T cell activation (Itch, RCAN1). Consequently, specific depletion of CMA in T cells results in immune response deficiency following immunization or infection. CMA is increased upon genotoxic stress . Conversely, decreased CMA activity associates with increased genome instability and decreased cell survival. CMA

Such students can enrol for the post-graduate level CMA program at any time; but must successfully complete this program and also accumulate 5-years of business experience to be eligible to join as a Certified Management Accountant (CMA). The flagship CMA Preparatory Program consists of two subjects: The CMA program from Australia

748-530: Is involved in the removal of Chk1, a key protein for cell cycle progression and cells with impaired CMA have defective DNA repair. CMA degrades lipid droplet proteins ( perilipin 2 and perilipin 3 ). Removal of these lipid droplet coat proteins by CMA precedes lipolysis and lipophagy. Consequently, defective CMA activity leads to massive accumulation of lipid droplets and steatosis. CMA activity declines with age in many cell types of old rodents and in cells of older humans. This impairment of CMA in aging

792-399: Is limited, the cells respond by activating autophagy, in order to degrade intracellular components to provide energy and building blocks, which the cell can utilize in this dire state. Macroautophagy is activated as early as 30 minutes into starvation and remains at high activity for at least 4–8 hours into starvation. If the starvation state persists for more than 10 hours, the cells switch to

836-407: Is mainly due to a decrease in the levels of LAMP-2A at the lysosomal membrane, because of reduced stability of the CMA receptor and not due to decreased de novo synthesis. Studies in a transgenic mouse model in which normal levels of LAMP-2A are maintained throughout life, showed that these animals had ‘cleaner’ cells, better response to stress – and overall, a better health-span. These studies support

1100-467: The best-characterized CMA substrates are enzymes involved in glycolysis, a pathway known to be less active in fasting conditions. CMA is important in regulating cellular metabolism . Specific depletion of CMA in liver results in robust hepatic glycogen use accompanied with accumulation of fat in the liver, along with altered glucose homeostasis, increased energy expenditure and reduced peripheral adiposity. Proteomics analyses identified several enzymes of

1144-527: The broad educational objectives to enrol in the Graduate Conversion programme -which is to complete Stage 4 of the GMA programme prior to undertaking the CMA program. A student completing the Graduate Conversion programme is eligible to join as a Graduate Management Accountant (GMA). A student completing the Graduate Management Accountant (GMA) program and having 3 years or more of business experience

1188-470: The carbohydrate and the lipid metabolism pathways to be CMA substrates, and their altered degradation in the knockout mice explaining the abnormal metabolic phenotype of the CMA-deficient mice. The ability of CMA to selectively degrade enzymes involved in the metabolism of free fatty acids (i.e. linoleic and linolic pathway) has proven key for activation of hematopoietic stem cells , thus supporting

1232-521: The cytosol. Therefore, some of the components that participate in CMA are present in the cytosol while others are located at the lysosomal membrane ( Table I ). Specific selection of proteins for degradation in all forms of autophagy came to further understanding as studies discovered the role of chaperones like hsc70. Although hsc70 targets cytosolic protein to CMA based on specific amino acid sequence recognition, it works differently when targeting proteins to macro or microautophagy. In one mechanism for

1276-593: The defect lies in the ‘tight’ binding to the lysosomal membrane of pathogenic proteins known to accumulate in these disorders (α-synuclein, UCHL1 in Parkinson’s disease and mutant Tau in tauopathies). These toxic proteins often bind to LAMP-2A with abnormal affinity exerting a ‘clogging effect’ at the lysosomal membrane and thus, inhibit the CMA-mediated degradation of other cytosolic substrate proteins. Links between CMA and cancer have also been established. CMA

1320-459: The degradation rates of LAMP-2A monomers in lysosomes and by de novo synthesis of LAMP-2A molecules. In addition, transport of substrates also depends on the efficiency of the assembly of LAMP-2A into the translocation complex. Assembly and disassembly of CMA translocation complex is mediated by hsp90 and hsc70 chaperones, respectively. Degradation of LAMP-2A monomers at the lysosomal membrane occurs in discrete cholesterol-rich lipid microdomains of

1364-412: The degraded proteins (contribution to energetic cellular balance ) and by eliminating abnormal or damaged proteins (contribution to cellular quality control ). CMA is active at all times in different tissues (liver, kidney, brain), and almost all cell types in culture studied. However, it is maximally activated in response to stressors and changes in the cellular nutritional status. When nutrient supply

1408-498: The final assessment to pass the subject. Students obtaining less than 50% in the final assessment would Fail the subject.] In addition to passing the two subjects, one needs to have 5-years of business experience to qualify as a Certified Management Accountant (CMA). Chaperone-mediated autophagy Chaperone-mediated autophagy ( CMA ) refers to the chaperone-dependent selection of soluble cytosolic proteins that are then targeted to lysosomes and directly translocated across

1452-464: The lysosomal membrane and it is mediated by Cathepsin A and an unidentified lysosomal metalloprotease. Therefore, assembly, disassembly of LAMP-2A into active translocation complex, and its degradation in microdomain regions, highlights the dynamic nature of this process and the importance of lateral mobility of the CMA receptor at the lysosomal membrane. CMA contributes to the maintenance of cellular homeostasis by facilitating recycling of amino acids of

1496-502: The lysosomal membrane. This binding of substrates to monomers of LAMP-2A triggers the assembly of LAMP-2A multimers that act as the active translocation complex through which the substrates can pass through after unfolding. Here, the translocation complex chooses only the substrate proteins which can unfold for internalization by the lysosomes. For instance, research with artificial CMA substrate showed that hsc70 chaperone binding to substrate or lysosomal binding does not necessarily require

1540-419: The lysosomal proteases. Figure 1 depicts the different steps of CMA. The limiting step for CMA is the binding of the substrate proteins to LAMP-2A and, consequently, levels of LAMP-2A at the lysosomal membrane correlate directly with CMA activity. Therefore, to modulate the activity of this autophagic pathway, the cell stringently regulates the levels of the CMA receptor at the lysosomal membrane by controlling

1584-432: The lysosome membrane for degradation. The unique features of this type of autophagy are the selectivity on the proteins that are degraded by this pathway and the direct shuttling of these proteins across the lysosomal membrane without the requirement for the formation of additional vesicles ( Figure 1 ). The proteins that are degraded through CMA are cytosolic proteins or proteins from other compartments once they reach

1628-573: The possible contribution of declined CMA activity to poor cellular homeostasis and inefficient response to stress characteristic of old organisms. High-fat diet inhibits CMA. This is because of a decrease in the stability of the CMA receptor at the lysosomal surface. More recently CMA has been implicated in the regeneration capacity of new blood cells by sustaining hematopoietic stem cell function. A primary defect in CMA activity has also been described in neurodegenerative diseases , such as Parkinson’s disease and certain tauopathies. In these cases,

1672-438: The principles of management accounting and financial management including: 3. For certified CMAs, 30 hours of CPE credits, including two hours of ethics, and annual IMA Membership are required to maintain active status.

1848-421: The selective form of autophagy, namely CMA, which is known to reach a plateau of maximal activation ~36 hours into fasting and remains at these levels until ~3 days. The selectivity of CMA for individual cytosolic proteins permits cells to degrade only those proteins that might not be required in these starvation conditions in order to generate amino acids for the synthesis of essential proteins. For example, some of
