Phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase deficiency [PDF]
Inborn errors of 3 of the 4 enzymes specific for gluconeogenesis are known. The present report describes a deficiency of the 4th enzyme phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PEP-CK). characterized by severe hypoglycemia and extreme fatty changes of liver and kidney.

50 Years of Giese Reaction – a Personal View
The Giese‐Reaction celebrates its 50. Birthday, it is a cyclic radical chain reaction centered around C,C‐bond formation in a three component synthesis. This minireview speaks about the birth of the name‐reaction, explains how the complete understanding of its reaction mechanism stimulates new methods in organic synthesis, and why it can proceed in ...

Genetic variability in exon 9 of PEPCK-M gene in different strains of chickens using PCR-RFLP method [PDF]
Phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PEPCK) catalyzes the first step of the gluconeogenesis cycle. There are two isozymes forms of this enzyme, cytosolic phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PEPCK-C) and mitochondrial phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PEPCK-

Phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase in cell metabolism: Roles and mechanisms beyond gluconeogenesis
Background: Phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PCK) has been almost exclusively recognized as a critical enzyme in gluconeogenesis, especially in the liver and kidney.

O-GlcNAcylated p53 in the liver modulates hepatic glucose production
p53 regulates signalling pathways involved in metabolic homeostasis. Here the authors show that O-GlcNAcylation of p53 in the liver plays a key role in the physiological regulation of glucose homeostasis, potentially via controlling the expression of the

Multiple conformations in solution of the maize C4-phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase isozyme
The photosynthetic phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase isozyme from C4 plants (PEPC-C4) has a complex allosteric regulation, involving positive cooperativity in binding the substrate phosphoenolpyruvate as well as positive and negative allosteric effectors ...

Tumour–host interactions in Drosophila: mechanisms in the tumour micro‐ and macroenvironment
This review examines how tumour–host crosstalk takes place at multiple levels of biological organisation, from local cell competition and immune crosstalk to organism‐wide metabolic and physiological collapse. Here, we integrate findings from Drosophila melanogaster studies that reveal conserved mechanisms through which tumours hijack host systems to ...

The StERF10‐StGSH1 module coordinates glutathione (GSH) biosynthesis under low‐phosphorus stress. The low‐phosphate‐induced AP2/ERF transcription factor StERF10 directly activates the transcription of StGSH1 and enhances GSH accumulation. Consequently, GSH scavenges reactive oxygen species and provides sulfur for sulfolipid synthesis, facilitating the ...
