Identification and evolution of C4 photosynthetic pathway genes in plants

BMC Plant Biology, 2020
Background NADP-malic enzyme (NAPD-ME), and pyruvate orthophosphate dikinase (PPDK) are important enzymes that participate in C4 photosynthesis. However, the evolutionary history and forces driving evolution of these genes in C4 plants are not completely

Malic Enzyme, not Malate Dehydrogenase, Mainly Oxidizes Malate That Originates from the Tricarboxylic Acid Cycle in Cyanobacteria

mBio, 2022
Oxygenic photoautotrophic bacteria, cyanobacteria, have the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle, and metabolite production using the cyanobacterial TCA cycle has been spotlighted recently. The unicellular cyanobacterium Synechocystis sp.

Zinc Exposure Causes Disulfidptosis to Induce Miscarriage by Up‐Regulating GATA1/METTL1/SLC7A11 Axis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Zn exposure up‐regulates GATA1, promoting GATA1‐mediated METTL1 and SLC7A11 transcription. It also enhances METTL1‐mediated m7G modification on SLC7A11 mRNA, increasing SLC7A11 mRNA stability. Ultimately, Zn exposure up‐regulates SLC7A11 at both transcriptional and post‐transcriptional levels, causing disulfidptosis. Knockdown of murine Slc7a11, Gata1,

Determinants of nucleotide-binding selectivity of malic enzyme. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2011
Malic enzymes have high cofactor selectivity. An isoform-specific distribution of residues 314, 346, 347 and 362 implies that they may play key roles in determining the cofactor specificity. Currently, Glu314, Ser346, Lys347 and Lys362 in human c-NADP-ME

Combating VEGFA‐siRNA‐Induced Metabolic Reprogramming via Glucose Utilization Deprivation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
An ionizable lipid nanoparticle co‐delivers VEGFA siRNA and glucose oxidase to tumors to counteract VEGFA knockdown‐induced, glutamine‐driven metabolic compensation. Enzymatic glucose consumption reverses the adaptive pathways and restores metabolism toward baseline, thereby sensitizing tumors to therapy.

Nicotiana tabacum NADP-Malic Enzyme: Cloning, Characterization and Analysis of Biological Role [PDF]

Plant and Cell Physiology, 2008
NADP-malic enzyme (NADP-ME) catalyzes the oxidative decarboxylation of L-malate, producing pyruvate, CO2 and NADPH. The photosynthetic role of this enzyme in C(4) and Crassulacean acid metabolism (CAM) plants has been well established; however, the biological role of several non-photosynthetic isoforms described in C(3), C(4) and CAM plants is still ...

Kinsenoside Targets IDH1 to Restore Microglial Immune‐Metabolic Homeostasis for Alzheimer's Disease Therapy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Dysregulated TCA cycle contributes to Alzheimer's disease (AD) pathogenesis. Here, we show that microglial isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 (IDH1) is a critical driver. Elevated IDH1 disrupts citrate metabolism and mitochondrial function, exacerbating AD pathology.

Properties of NADP⁺-malic enzyme from pod walls of chickpea (Cicer arietinum)

, 1986
NADP+-malic enzyme (l-malate: NADP+ oxidoreductase, decarboxylating EC 1.1.1.40) from pod walls of chickpea was purified 51-fold by ammonium sulphate fractionation, DEAE- cellulose chromatography and gel filtration through Sepharose 4B.

NADP-Dependent Isocitrate Dehydrogenase from Arabidopsis Roots Contributes in the Mechanism of Defence against the Nitro-Oxidative Stress Induced by Salinity

The Scientific World Journal, 2012
NADPH regeneration appears to be essential in the mechanism of plant defence against oxidative stress. Plants contain several NADPH-generating dehydrogenases including isocitrate dehydrogenase (NADP-ICDH), glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PDH), 6 ...

A role for cytosolic isocitrate dehydrogenase as a negative regulator of glucose signaling for insulin secretion in pancreatic ß-cells. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2013
Cytosolic NADPH may act as one of the signals that couple glucose metabolism to insulin secretion in the pancreatic ß-cell. NADPH levels in the cytoplasm are largely controlled by the cytosolic isoforms of malic enzyme and isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDHc).
