SUMMARY The metabolism of tetrahydrofolate (H4PteGlun)‐bound one‐carbon (C1) units (C1 metabolism) is multifaceted and required for plant growth, but it is unclear what of many possible synthesis pathways provide C1 units in specific organelles and tissues.

Comparative genomics of bacterial and plant folate synthesis and salvage: predictions and validations [PDF]
Background Folate synthesis and salvage pathways are relatively well known from classical biochemistry and genetics but they have not been subjected to comparative genomic analysis.

The transcriptome and proteome changes caused by the overexpression of Maf1 in the protozoan parasite Leishmania major suggest the participation of this protein in multiple key biological processes. Abstract Maf1, originally described as a repressor of RNA polymerase III (RNAP III) transcription in yeast, participates in multiple functions across ...

Traditional views of oxygen's role in evolution focus on improved energy yield in heterotrophic pathways. Before respiratory terminal oxidases arose, however, oxygen potently inhibited anaerobic growth, often by degrading FeS clusters. Several pathways for essential cofactors include enzymes with FeS clusters, selecting for alternative, oxygen‐tolerant

Synthesis of queuine by colonic gut microbiome via cross‐feeding
Escherichia coli, Bacteroides fragilis, and Lactobacillus reuteri could independently synthesize Que in vitro. Abundance of Limosilactobacillus, Pediococcus, and Lactobacillus was increased by Que. Distribution of TGT, QueA, and QueG in microorganisms was changed by Que and bacteria.

Mixotrophic growth under micro-oxic conditions in the purple sulfur bacterium "Thiodictyon syntrophicum" [PDF]
The microbial ecosystem of the meromictic Lake Cadagno (Ticino, Swiss Alps) has been studied intensively in order to understand structure and functioning of the anoxygenic phototrophic sulfur bacteria community living in the chemocline. It has been found

Gene therapy for neurotransmitter‐related disorders
Abstract Inborn errors of neurotransmitter (NT) metabolism are a group of rare, heterogenous diseases with predominant neurological features, such as movement disorders, autonomic dysfunction, and developmental delay. Clinical overlap with other disorders has led to delayed diagnosis and treatment, and some conditions are refractory to oral ...

The Role of Urinary Pteridines as Disease Biomarkers [PDF]
Pteridines and their derivatives function as intermediates in the metabolism of several vitamins and cofactors, and their relevance to disease has inspired new efforts to study their roles as disease biomarkers.
