The possible role of Phosphoenolpyrovate Carboxykinase (PEPCKin protein content of chickpea seeds (Cicer arietinum L [PDF]
Phosphoenolpyruvate Carboxykinase (PEPCK) has been shown to be present in plants andanimals, playing different metabolic roles in different tissues. The basic role of this enzyme is itscontribution in the gluconeogenesis pathway.

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-

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

The NADPH oxidase NOX4 regulates redox and metabolic homeostasis preventing HCC progression
Loss of NOX4 in HCC tumor cells induces metabolic reprogramming in a Nrf2/MYC‐dependent manner to promote HCC progression. Abstract Background and Aims The NADPH oxidase NOX4 plays a tumor‐suppressor function in HCC. Silencing NOX4 confers higher proliferative and migratory capacity to HCC cells and increases their in vivo tumorigenic potential in ...
