Compartmentalization of the Edinburgh Human Metabolic Network [PDF]
, 2010 Background Direct in vivo investigation of human metabolism is complicated by the distinct metabolic functions of various sub-cellular organelles. Diverse micro-environments in different organelles may lead to distinct functions of the same protein and ...

Women have higher protein content of beta-oxidation enzymes in skeletal muscle than men. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2010 It is well recognized that compared with men, women have better ultra-endurance capacity, oxidize more fat during endurance exercise, and are more resistant to fat oxidation defects i.e. diet-induced insulin resistance. Several groups have shown that the

Phytanic acid alpha-oxidation in rat liver. Requirement of cytosolic factor.
Journal of Biological Chemistry, 1984 The alpha-oxidation of [1-14C]phytanic acid of high specific activity was studied in postnuclear and various subcellular fractions from rat liver. alpha-Oxidation in the postnuclear fraction required ATP, Mg2+, nicotinamide, and molecular oxygen for activity.

Peroxisomal and mitochondrial enzymes involved in lipid metabolism : studies on function and regulation [PDF]
, 2013 Fatty acids constitute a major part of the energy that we obtain from the diet and are also the principal source for mammals to store energy. To use the incoming or stored fatty acids as energy, the fatty acids needs to be metabolized of which the ...

OeBAS and CYP716C67 catalyze the biosynthesis of health-beneficial triterpenoids in olive (Olea europaea) fruits [PDF]
, 2023 center dot The bioactive properties of olive (Olea europaea) fruits and olive oil are largely attributed to terpenoid compounds, including diverse triterpenoids such as oleanolic, maslinic and ursolic acids, erythrodiol, and uvaol. They have applications

Mapping the evolution of mitochondrial complex I through structural variation
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Respiratory complex I (CI) is crucial for bioenergetic metabolism in many prokaryotes and eukaryotes. It is composed of a conserved set of core subunits and additional accessory subunits that vary depending on the organism. Here, we categorize CI subunits from available structures to map the evolution of CI across eukaryotes. Respiratory complex I (CI)
