Inhibition of Pig Phosphoenolpyruvate Carboxykinase Isoenzymes by 3-Mercaptopicolinic Acid and Novel Inhibitors. [PDF]
There exist two isoforms of cytosolic phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PEPCK-C) in pig populations that differ in a single amino acid (Met139Leu). The isoenzymes have different kinetic properties, affecting more strongly the Km and Vmax of nucleotides.

Inhibition of phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase blocks lactate utilization and impairs tumor growth in colorectal cancer [PDF]
Background Metabolic reprogramming is a key feature of malignant cells. While glucose is one of the primary substrates for malignant cells, cancer cells also display a remarkable metabolic flexibility. Depending on nutrient availability and requirements,

What Is the Metabolic Role of Phosphoenolpyruvate Carboxykinase?* [PDF]
The enzyme phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (GTP; EC 4.1.1.32) (PEPCK)2 has the unusual distinction of being very well studied but metabolically misunderstood.

Phosphoenolpyruvate Carboxykinase Maintains Glycolysis-driven Growth in Drosophila Tumors. [PDF]
Published online: 14 September 2017Tumors frequently fail to pass on all their chromosomes correctly during cell division, and this chromosomal instability (CIN) causes irregular aneuploidy and oxidative stress in cancer cells.

Aspects of the Control of Phosphoenolpyruvate Carboxykinase Gene Transcription* [PDF]
This article reviews our current understanding of factors that regulate transcription of the gene for PEPCK-C, focusing on the effect of methylation on gene expression. It also provides insight into the evolutionary status of the PEPCK-C gene.

The role of phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase in muscle alanine synthesis [PDF]
3-Mercaptopicolinic acid (3-MPA) is reportedly a specific inhibitor of phosphoenolpyruvate (PEP) carboxykinase and has hitherto been used accordingly to elucidate the metabolic role of PEP carboxykinase in vitro and in vivo. We show that 3-MPA has multiple effects on intermediary metabolism in hemidiaphragms from 40 h-starved rats.
