Cuproptosis key gene FDX1 is a prognostic biomarker and associated with immune infiltration in glioma

open access: yesFrontiers in Medicine, 2022
Recent studies have found that the protein encoded by the FDX1 gene is involved in mediating Cuproptosis as a regulator of protein lipoylation and related to immune response process of tumors.

Glycine Cleavage System H Protein Is Essential for Embryonic Viability, Implying Additional Function Beyond the Glycine Cleavage System

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2021
Glycine cleavage system H protein (GCSH) is a component of the glycine cleavage system (GCS), a conserved protein complex that acts to decarboxylate glycine.

FDX1 inhibits thyroid cancer malignant progression by inducing cuprotosis

open access: yesHeliyon, 2023
Cuprotosis is a recently identified cell death form that caused by intracellular copper accumulation and regulated by FDX1. This work aimed to explore the role of cuprotosis and the pivotal regulatory gene FDX1 in thyroid cancer development.

An Essential Role of Mitochondrial α-Ketoglutarate Dehydrogenase E2 in the Basal Immune Response Against Bacterial Pathogens in Tomato

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2020
Plants intensely modulate respiration when pathogens attack, but the function of mitochondrial respiration-related genes in plant–bacteria interaction is largely unclear.

An engineered variant of MECR reductase reveals indispensability of long-chain acyl-ACPs for mitochondrial respiration

open access: yesNature Communications, 2023
Mitochondrial fatty acid synthesis (mtFAS) is essential for respiratory function. MtFAS generates the octanoic acid precursor for lipoic acid synthesis, but the role of longer fatty acid products has remained unclear.

Lipoic Acid Metabolism as a Potential Chemotherapeutic Target Against Plasmodium falciparum and Staphylococcus aureus

open access: yesFrontiers in Chemistry, 2021
Lipoic acid (LA) is an organic compound that plays a key role in cellular metabolism. It participates in a posttranslational modification (PTM) named lipoylation, an event that is highly conserved and that occurs in multimeric metabolic enzymes of very ...

Mitochondrial fatty acid synthesis coordinates oxidative metabolism in mammalian mitochondria

open access: yeseLife, 2020
Cells harbor two systems for fatty acid synthesis, one in the cytoplasm (catalyzed by fatty acid synthase, FASN) and one in the mitochondria (mtFAS).

Proteomic analysis reveals a novel function of the kinase Sat4p in Saccharomyces cerevisiae mitochondria. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
The Saccharomyces cerevisiae kinase Sat4p has been originally identified as a protein involved in salt tolerance and stabilization of plasma membrane transporters, implicating a cytoplasmic localization. Our study revealed an additional mitochondrial (mt)
