Sugar versus fat: elimination of glycogen storage improves lipid accumulation in Yarrowia lipolytica
FEMS Yeast Research, 2017 &NA; Triacylglycerol (TAG) and glycogen are the two major metabolites for carbon storage in most eukaryotic organisms. We investigated the glycogen metabolism of the oleaginous Yarrowia lipolytica and found that this yeast accumulates up to 16% glycogen ...

Abnormal glycogen chain length pattern, not hyperphosphorylation, is critical in Lafora disease
EMBO Molecular Medicine, 2017 Lafora disease (LD) is a fatal progressive epilepsy essentially caused by loss‐of‐function mutations in the glycogen phosphatase laforin or the ubiquitin E3 ligase malin. Glycogen in LD is hyperphosphorylated and poorly hydrosoluble.

Emerging Roles for Glycogen in the CNS
Frontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2017 The ability of glycogen, the depot into which excess glucose is stored in mammals, to act as a source of rapidly available energy substrate, has been exploited by several organs for both general and local advantage.

Histological insight into the hepatic tissue of the Nile monitor (Varanus niloticus) [PDF]
arXiv, 2018 The liver of reptiles is considered an important study model for the interaction between environment and hepatic tissue. Little is known about the histology of the liver of reptiles. The aim of the current study was to elucidate the histological architecture of the liver of the Nile monitor (Varanus niloticus).

Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 2017 Sucrose and glycogen syntheses in cyanobacteria share the common precursor glucose-1-phosphate. It is generally assumed that lowering glycogen synthesis could drive more carbon toward sucrose synthesis that can be induced by salt stress among ...

The Energy Sensor AMPK: Adaptations to Exercise, Nutritional and Hormonal Signals [PDF]
Spiegelman B. Hormones, Metabolism and the Benefits of Exercise,
Hormones, Metabolism and the Benefits of Exercise, Springer, pp.13-24, 2018,
Research and Perspectives in Endocrine Interactions, 978-3-319-72789-9, 2019 To sustain metabolism, intracellular ATP concentration must be regulated within an appropriate range. This coordination is achieved through the function of the AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK), a cellular "fuel gauge" that is expressed in essentially all eukaryotic cells as heterotrimeric complexes containing catalytic $\alpha$ subunits and ...
