Skeletal muscle mitochondrial volume and myozenin-1 protein differences exist between high versus low anabolic responders to resistance training [PDF]
Background We sought to examine how 12 weeks of resistance exercise training (RET) affected skeletal muscle myofibrillar and sarcoplasmic protein levels along with markers of mitochondrial physiology in high versus low anabolic responders.

Human Citrate Synthase Post-Translational Modification Mimics and Molecular Dynamic Simulations Demonstrate Attenuation of Acetyl-CoA/CoA Binding. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Human citrate synthase (hCS) is a mitochondrial enzyme that catalyzes the aldol condensation of acetyl coenzyme A (AcCoA) to oxaloacetate to form citrate in the TCA cycle. CS activity is important for aerobic exercise performance and basic metabolic function as a housekeeping enzyme.

Isolation of Bartonella sp. from Sheep Blood
A Bartonella sp. was isolated from sheep blood. Bacterial identification was conducted by using electron microscopy and DNA sequencing of the 16S rRNA, citrate synthase, riboflavin synthase, and RNAase P genes.

Ptc7p Dephosphorylates Select Mitochondrial Proteins to Enhance Metabolic Function
Summary: Proper maintenance of mitochondrial activity is essential for metabolic homeostasis. Widespread phosphorylation of mitochondrial proteins may be an important element of this process; yet, little is known about which enzymes control mitochondrial

Excessive amount of lactose in the diet of two-week-old calves induces urinary protein changes [PDF]
The present paper was undertaken to analyse and identify urinary proteins that were significantly altered in urine of calves in response to short-term administration of milk replacer with lactose addition. We used 2-D electrophoresis combined with matrix-
