Cloning and expression of phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase from Escherichia coli
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

Repression of glucocorticoid-stimulated angiopoietin-like 4 gene transcription by insulin. [PDF]
Angiopoietin-like 4 (Angptl4) is a glucocorticoid receptor (GR) primary target gene in hepatocytes and adipocytes. It encodes a secreted protein that inhibits extracellular LPL and promotes adipocyte lipolysis.

Minimizing acetate formation in E. coli fermentations [PDF]
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.

A Reactive Cysteine in Avian Liver Phosphoenolpyruvate Carboxykinase [PDF]
The modification of avian phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase by a variety of sulfhydryl reagents leads to inhibition. The inhibition is related to the loss of 1 highly reactive cysteine residue of the 13 cysteines present in the enzyme. Inhibition by reagents which yield a mixed disulfide was rapidly reversed by thiols.

Lack of association between PCK1 polymorphisms and obesity, physical activity, and fitness in European Youth Heart Study (EYHS) [PDF]
Phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase-1 (PCK1) is the rate-limiting enzyme in the hepatic gluconeogenic pathway. Studies have shown that overexpression of Pck1 in mice results in obesity-related traits and higher levels of physical activity (PA).
