Phosphoenolpyruvate Carboxykinase Is Involved in the Decarboxylation of Aspartate in the Bundle Sheath of Maize [PDF]

, 1999
We recently showed that maize (Zea mays L.) leaves contain appreciable amounts of phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PEPCK; R.P. Walker, R.M. Acheson, L.I. Técsi, R.C. Leegood [1997] Aust J Plant Physiol 24: 459–468).

Comparison of pepck gene expression in developing seeds and leaves of chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) plant [PDF]

Journal of Cell and Molecular Research, 2009
Phosphoenolpyruvate Carboxykinase, encoded by the pepck gene, plays an important role in gluconeogenesis. It also seems to be important in metabolism of nitrogenous compounds in developing seeds of legumes, including amides and ureides which are then ...

Consequences of Postnatally Elevated Insulin-Like Growth Factor-II in Transgenic Mice: Endocrine Changes and Effects on Body and Organ Growth. [PDF]

, 1994
Insulin-like growth factor-II (IGF-II) is an important regulator of embryonic growth and differentiation, but its function in postnatal life is unclear. To address this point, we generated transgenic mice harboring fusion genes in which a human IGF-II

Extraction and Measurement the Activities of Cytosolic Phosphoenolpyruvate Carboxykinase (PEPCK) and Plastidic NADP-dependent Malic Enzyme (ME) on Tomato (Solanum lycopersicum)

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

Comprehensive Analysis of C. glutamicum Anaplerotic Deletion Mutants Under Defined d-Glucose Conditions

Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2021
Wild-type C. glutamicum ATCC 13032 is known to possess two enzymes with anaplerotic (C4-directed) carboxylation activity, namely phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase (PEPCx) and pyruvate carboxylase (PCx). On the other hand, C3-directed decarboxylation can be

Minimizing acetate formation in E. coli fermentations [PDF]

, 2007
Escherichia coli remains the best established production organisms in industrial biotechnology. However, during aerobic fermentation runs at high growth rates, considerable amounts of acetate are accumulated as by-product.

Cloning and expression of phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase from Escherichia coli

Journal of Hebei University of Science and Technology, 2019
In order to better study the structure and function of phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase, the phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase gene is cloned and expressed by PCR (polymerase chain reaction), double enzyme digestion and cell transformation. The results show

Phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinases as emerging targets in cancer therapy

Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2023
Metabolic reprogramming is commonly accompanied by alterations in the expression of metabolic enzymes. These metabolic enzymes not only catalyze the intracellular metabolic reaction, but also participate in a series of molecular events to regulate tumor ...

Combined transcriptomic-(1)H NMR metabonomic study reveals yhat monoethylhexyl phthalate stimulates adipogenesis and glyceroneogenesis in human adipocytes [PDF]

, 2011
Adipose tissue is a major storage site for lipophilic environmental contaminants. The environmental metabolic disruptor hypothesis postulates that some pollutants can promote obesity or metabolic disorders by activating nuclear receptors involved in the ...
