Metabolic engineering of the purine biosynthetic pathway in Corynebacterium glutamicum results in increased intracellular pool sizes of IMP and hypoxanthine [PDF]
Background: Purine nucleotides exhibit various functions in cellular metabolism. Besides serving as building blocks for nucleic acid synthesis, they participate in signaling pathways and energy metabolism.

A quantitative screen for metabolic enzyme structures reveals patterns of assembly across the yeast metabolic network. [PDF]
Despite the proliferation of proteins that can form filaments or phase-separated condensates, it remains unclear how this behavior is distributed over biological networks. We have found that 60 of the 440 yeast metabolic enzymes robustly form structures,

Two classes of bacterial IMPDHs according to their quaternary structures and catalytic properties.
Inosine-5'-monophosphate dehydrogenase (IMPDH) occupies a key position in purine nucleotide metabolism. In this study, we have performed the biochemical and physico-chemical characterization of eight bacterial IMPDHs, among which six were totally ...

Inosine 5-monophosphate dehydrogenase 1 (IMPDH1) is the rate-limiting enzyme in the de novo purine nucleotide biosynthesis. IMPDH1 catalyzes IMP-oxidation to XMP, which in continue is converted to guanine nucleotides. Like mammals, the mouse IMPDH1 (mH1)
