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

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

Adaptation responses in C4 photosynthesis of sweet maize (Zea mays L.) exposed to nicosulfuron
Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety, 2021 Nicosulfuron is an ingredient in photosynthesis-inhibiting herbicides and has been widely used in corn post-emergence weed control. In the current study, a pair of sister lines, HK301 (nicosulfuron-tolerence, NT) and HK320 (nicosulfuron-sensitive, NS ...

Bio-Protocol, 2014 A recent study demonstrated that cytosolic phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PEPCK) and NADP-malic enzyme (NADP-ME) have an important role in malate metabolism during fruit ripening (Osorio et al., 2013). PEPCK catalyze the ATP-dependent decarboxylation

Cytosolic NADP-isocitrate dehydrogenase in Arabidopsis leaves and roots
Biologia Plantarum, 2012 NADP-dependent isocitrate dehydrogenase (NADP-ICDH) catalyses the production of NADPH, which is an essential component in the cellular homeostasis. In Arabidopsis, the kinetic parameters (K m and V max) of cytosolic NADP-ICDH were different in leaves and

Direct stimulation of NADP+ synthesis through Akt-mediated phosphorylation of NAD kinase
Science, 2019 Akt produces reducing power The protein kinase Akt provides a link from growth factors to the production of metabolic reducing power within the cell. Hoxhaj et al. discovered that Akt directly phosphorylates nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide kinase (NADK)

The metabolites NADP+ and NADPH are the targets of the circadian protein Nocturnin (Curled)
Nature Communications, 2019 Nocturnin (NOCT) is a rhythmically expressed protein that regulates metabolism under the control of circadian clock. It has been proposed that NOCT deadenylates and regulates metabolic enzyme mRNAs.

Relationships Between C4 Enzyme Activities and Yield in Soybeans (Glycine max (L.) Merr.)
Journal of Integrative Agriculture, 2013 To study the relationships between C4 enzyme activities and yield, C4 enzyme activities (phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase (PEPCase), NADP-malate dehydrogenase (NADP-MDH), NADP-malic enzyme (NADP-ME), and pyruvate phosphate dikinase (PPDK)) in different ...
