ABSTRACT Arginine metabolism in plants is targeted by phytopathogens such as Pseudomonas syringae strains, which produce toxins that affect enzymes of plant arginine metabolism, causing devastating infections in crops. In this work, the structural and functional properties of plant N‐acetylornithine glutamate acetyltransferase (NAOGAT), the key ...

Warburg redefined: Metabolites, mitochondria and macrophages in immune regulation
Abstract figure legend Following pro‐inflammatory stimulation, macrophages undergo Warburg‐like metabolic rewiring that extends more than increased glycolysis. The non‐canonical functions of glycolytic enzymes and lactate accumulation control macrophage immune responses through multiple signalling pathways (a).

Unlocking a Nitrosuccinate Lyase for Decarboxylative Enzymatic Hydronitration
The nitrosuccinate lyase CreD catalyzes C–NO2 bond formation using nitrite in water and shows synthetic practicality with high turnover numbers up to 102,000. A combination of protein engineering and computational methods helped to reveal the mechanistic principles that underpin this unique enzymatic activity.

Unstable argininosuccinate lyase in variant forms of the urea cycle disorder argininosuccinic aciduria. [PDF]
Loss of function of the urea cycle enzyme argininosuccinate lyase (ASL) is caused by mutations in the ASL gene leading to ASL deficiency (ASLD). ASLD has a broad clinical spectrum ranging from life-threatening severe neonatal to asymptomatic forms ...

Management of a urea cycle disorder in the setting of socioeconomic and language barriers
Argininosuccinic aciduria (ASA) is a disorder that results from a deficiency in the urea cycle enzyme argininosuccinate lyase. Variable manifestations of this hereditary disorder are associated with hyperammonemia and can include lethargy, somnolence ...

This review elucidates how cancer cell metabolic reprogramming—across glucose, lipid, amino acid, and nucleotide pathways—remodels the tumor microenvironment to suppress anti‐tumor immunity and promote immune escape. Targeting these metabolic axes offers promising strategies to overcome immunotherapy resistance and enhance cancer treatment.

Fatal consequences of limited health literacy in a patient with a rare metabolic disease
A Black young adult female diagnosed with argininosuccinate lyase deficiency at 6 months of age encountered significant barriers to care for the first 16 years of her life due to socioeconomic factors and parental neglect.

Bacterial expression of mutant argininosuccinate lyase reveals imperfect correlation of in-vitro enzyme activity with clinical phenotype in argininosuccinic aciduria [PDF]
BACKGROUND: The urea cycle defect argininosuccinate lyase (ASL) deficiency has a large spectrum of presentations from highly severe to asymptomatic. Enzyme activity assays in red blood cells or fibroblasts, although diagnostic of the deficiency, fail to ...

Long‐read whole‐genome sequencing revealed extensive chromosomal rearrangements and aneuploidy in a widely used Chlamydomonas reinhardtii stt7‐1 mutant. The STT7 gene (shown in red) was found to be split between two rearranged chromosomes, providing a molecular explanation for the long‐standing failure of this mutant in genetic crosses.
