Contextualized Metabolic Modelling Revealed Factors Affecting Isoflavone Accumulation in Soybean Seeds

open access: yesPlant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Isoflavones, secondary metabolites with numerous health benefits, are predominantly found in legume seeds, especially soybean; however, their contents in domesticated soybean seeds are highly variable. Wild soybeans are known for higher seed isoflavone contents than cultivars. Here we used experimental and modelling approaches on wild soybean (

On the kinetic and allosteric regulatory properties of the ADP-glucose pyrophosphorylase from Rhodococcus jostii: An approach to evaluate glycogen metabolism in oleaginous bacteria [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Rhodococcus spp. are oleaginous bacteria that accumulate glycogen during exponential growth. Despite the importance of these microorganisms in biotechnology, little is known about the regulation of carbon and energy storage, mainly the relationship ...

A Role for the Plastidial GPT2 Translocator in the Modulation of Lignin Biosynthesis

open access: yesPlant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Engineering plants with reduced lignin content can result in pleiotropic growth defects. In stems of Arabidopsis plants with reduced expression of hydroxycinnamoyl CoA: shikimate hydroxycinnamoyl transferase (HCT), the plastidial glucose 6‐phosphate: phosphate co‐transporter GPT2 is highly overexpressed, and this coincides with reduced lignin ...

Efficacy of combination treatment with fingolimod (FTY720) plus pathogenic autoantigen in a glucose-6-phosphate isomerase peptide (GPI325-339)-induced arthritis mouse model.

open access: yesBiological and Pharmaceutical Bulletin, 2013
Fingolimod (FTY720) is known to have a significant therapeutic effect in various autoimmune disease models. Here, we examined FTY720 in a model of rheumatoid arthritis, induced by immunizing DBA/1 mice with a peptide consisting of residues 325 through ...

The Highly Conserved Cys95 Residue of Fructose‐1,6‐Bisphosphatase 1 Mediates the pH‐Driven Structure and Activity of the Enzyme and Photosynthesis

open access: yesPlant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In Arabidopsis, exposure to microbial volatile compounds promotes thiol reduction of the Cys95 residue of the photosynthetic enzyme fructose‐1,6‐bisphosphatase (cFBP1). Although highly conserved in plants, the Cys95 function still remains unknown. We characterised recombinant wild‐type (WT) cFBP1 and a variant (C95S) in which the Cys95 residue

The crystal structure of glucose-6-phosphate isomerase from Leishmania mexicana reveals novel active site features.

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Biochemistry, 2004
Glucose-6-phosphate isomerase catalyzes the reversible aldose-ketose isomerization of D-glucose-6-phosphate to D-fructose-6-phosphate in glycolysis and gluconeogenesis, and in the recycling of hexose-6-phosphate in the pentose phosphate pathway.

Elevated cortisol concentration in preterm sheep fetuses impacts heart development

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract The prepartum rise in cortisol promotes cardiac development and maturation. Here, we investigated the impact of elevated circulating cortisol during mid‐late gestation on cardiac growth and metabolism in fetal sheep. Saline or cortisol (2–3 mg in 4.4 mL/24 h) was infused into the fetal jugular vein from 109 to 116 days gestation (dG, term ...

Biochemical, ECF18R , and RYR1 Gene Polymorphisms and Their Associations with Osteochondral Diseases and Production Traits in Pigs [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
This study reports the association of five blood types, three enzymes, two proteins, Escherichia coli F18 receptor gene (ECF18R), and the Ryanodin receptor (RYR1) gene with six production traits, four meat quality traits, and two osteochondral diseases ...
