Methionine Metabolism Alters Oxidative Stress Resistance via the Pentose Phosphate Pathway

Antioxidants and Redox Signaling, 2016
Nutrient uptake and metabolism have a significant impact on the way cells respond to stress. The amino acid methionine is, in particular, a key player in the oxidative stress response, and acting as a reactive oxygen species scavenger, methionine is ...

Proteome Analysis of Corynebacterium diphtheriae–Macrophage Interaction

PROTEOMICS, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Contact of Corynebacterium diphtheriae with macrophages induces adaptations on both bacterial and cellular sides. The study presented here was aiming to shed light on the simultaneous intracellular adaptation of the bacteria and changes in the proteome of the phagocytes in response to the internalization of C. diphtheriae.

Regulation of Pentose Catabolic Pathway Genes of Aspergillus niger

Food Technology and Biotechnology, 2007
The aim of this study was to obtain a better understanding of the pentose catabolism in Aspergillus niger and the regulatory systems that affect it. To this end, we have cloned and characterised the genes encoding A. niger L-arabitol dehydrogenase (ladA)

The gluconate shunt is an alternative route for directing glucose into the pentose phosphate pathway in fission yeast

Journal of Biological Chemistry, 2017
Glycolysis and the pentose phosphate pathway both play a central role in the degradation of glucose in all domains of life. Another metabolic route that can facilitate glucose breakdown is the gluconate shunt.

Nigericin‐Triggered Phosphodynamics in Inflammasome Formation and Pyroptosis

PROTEOMICS, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Innate immune signaling relies heavily on phosphorylation cascades to mount effective immune responses. Although traditional innate immune signaling cascades following TLR4 stimulation have been investigated through a temporally quantitative phosphoproteomic lens, far fewer studies have applied these methods to distinct signaling following the

Pentose phosphate pathway inhibition metabolically reprograms CD8+ T cells and disrupts CNS autoimmunity

JCI Insight
Multiple sclerosis is characterized by CNS infiltration of autoreactive immune cells that drive both acute inflammatory demyelination and chronic progressive axonal and neuronal injury.

Proteomic Profiling of Primary Hippocampal Neurons Reveals Noncanonical GFAP Expression and Metabolic Adaptations in Glia‐Free Culture

PROTEOMICS, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Despite their widespread use as a research model, a comprehensive, quantitative proteomic profile of the cultured hippocampal neurons has remained unexplored. Here, we provide the first global proteomic characterization of primary murine hippocampal neurons cultured for 14 days under near‐physiological glucose conditions (2.5 mM).

The Mycobacterium tuberculosis Rv0132c Gene Product Mtb‐FGD2 Can Act as an F420‐Dependent Glucose Dehydrogenase

Proteins: Structure, Function, and Bioinformatics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The role of the cell envelope‐associated Rv0132c/FGD2 from Mycobacterium tuberculosis has long been a subject of debate. Importantly, FGD2 is found only in pathogenic mycobacteria, making it a potential drug target. While some suggest it functions as a glucose‐6‐phosphate dehydrogenase, others propose it acts instead as an F420‐dependent ...

First genome sequence of a European Alternaria brassicae isolate and genes involved in early development of alternaria leaf spot on Brassica juncea

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
This article reports the first genome sequence of a UK Alternaria brassicae isolate. Dual RNA‐sequencing profiling of A. brassicae‐infected Brassica juncea leaves identified differentially expressed genes involved in pathogenicity and host response pathways in moderately resistant Sej‐2 (2) and moderately susceptible Pusa Jaikisan cultivars.
