Relative domain folding and stability of a membrane transport protein [PDF]

, 2014
There is a limited understanding of the folding of multidomain membrane proteins. Lactose permease (LacY) of Escherichia coli is an archetypal member of the major facilitator superfamily of membrane transport proteins, which contain two domains of six ...

Functional Survey For Heterologous Sugar Transport Proteins, Using Saccharomyces Cerevisiae As A Host [PDF]

, 2011
Molecular transport is a key process in cellular metabolism. This step is often limiting when using a nonnative carbon source, as exemplified by xylose catabolism in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

Data_Sheet_1_Phylogenetic analysis and structural prediction reveal the potential functional diversity between green algae SWEET transporters.PDF

, 2022
Sugar-Will-Eventually-be-Exported-Transporters (SWEETs) are an important family of sugar transporters that appear to be ubiquitous in all organisms. Recent research has determined the structure of SWEETs in higher plants, identified specific residues ...

Towards defining the role of glycans as hardware in information storage and transfer: Basic principles, experimental approaches and recent progress [PDF]

, 2001
The term `code' in biological information transfer appears to be tightly and hitherto exclusively connected with the genetic code based on nucleotides and translated into functional activities via proteins.

Sugar transport in Sulfolobus solfataricus is mediated by two families of binding protein-dependent ABC transporters [PDF]

, 2001
The extreme thermoacidophilic archaeon Sulfolobus solfataricus grows optimally at 80°C and pH 3 and uses a variety of sugars as sole carbon and energy source. Glucose transport in this organism is mediated by a high-affinity binding protein-dependent ATP-

Source-To-Sink Transport of Sugar and Its Role in Male Reproductive Development

, 2022
Sucrose is produced in leaf mesophyll cells via photosynthesis and exported to non-photosynthetic sink tissues through the phloem. The molecular basis of source-to-sink long-distance transport in cereal crop plants is of importance due to its direct ...

Genome-Wide Identification and an Evolution Analysis of Tonoplast Monosaccharide Transporter (TMT) Genes in Seven Gramineae Crops and Their Expression Profiling in Rice

, 2023
The tonoplast monosaccharide transporter (TMT) family plays essential roles in sugar transport and plant growth. However, there is limited knowledge about the evolutionary dynamics of this important gene family in important Gramineae crops and putative ...

Rapid Decrease in Dextrose Concentration After Intra-Articular Knee Injection: Implications for Mechanism of Action of Dextrose Prolotherapy

Biomedicines
Background: D-glucose (dextrose) is used as a 5000–25,000 mg% solution in the injection-based pain therapy known as dextrose prolotherapy (DPT). The number of peer-reviewed clinical trials supporting its use is growing.

Molecular mechanism of sugar transport in plants unveiled by structures of glucose/H$^+$ symporter STP10

, 2022
Sugars are essential sources of energy and carbon and also function as key signalling molecules in plants. Sugar transport proteins (STP) are proton-coupled symporters responsible for uptake of glucose from the apoplast into plant cells.

Fluorogenic Coupled Assays Reveal Catalytic Properties, Inhibition Constants and Cellular Location of Mucin‐Active Carbohydrate Sulfatases

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
We report plate‐based coupled assays to rapidly and quantitatively determine the activity and selectivity of mucin‐active carbohydrate sulfatases. This fluorogenic assay further enables inhibitor identification and allows determination of (sub‐)cellular location. ABSTRACT Sulfated glycans play a central role in human health and influence cell signaling,
