Exploring biochemical and functional features of Leishmania major phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
This work reports the first functional characterization of leishmanial PEPCK. The recombinant Leishmania major enzyme (Lmj-PEPCK) exhibits equivalent kcat values for the phosphoenolpyruvate (PEP) and oxaloacetate (OAA) forming reactions.

HSP70 as a Mediator of Host–Pathogen Interaction in Arabidopsis thaliana During Plasmodiophora brassicae Infection

open access: yesPhysiologia Plantarum, Volume 177, Issue 3, May/June 2025.
ABSTRACT Plasmodiophora brassicae is one of the most devastating threats to Brassicaceae crops. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying clubroot disease remain unclear. Initial proteomics results led us to hypothesize that HSP70 proteins regulate host–P. brassicae interactions by modulating both plant defenses and pathogen activity.

Aluminum Fluorides as Noncovalent Lewis Acids in Proteins: The Case of Phosphoryl Transfer Enzymes

open access: yesChemPlusChem, Volume 90, Issue 1, January 2025.
The abundance, directionality and energetic features of O ⋅ ⋅ ⋅ Al Triel Bonds in biological systems have been studied herein combining a search in the PDB (Protein Data Bank) with Quantum Mechanics calculations at the PBE0‐D3/def2‐TZVPD level of theory. Results indicate the noncovalent and attractive nature of the interaction, being important to fully

Transcriptomic and Metabolomic Insights Into the Prebiotic Potential of Camellia Seed Oil for Enhancing Akkermansia muciniphila Proliferation In Vitro

open access: yesFood Science &Nutrition, Volume 13, Issue 1, January 2025.
Camellia seed oil is rich in bioactive compounds, which could promote the in vitro proliferation of Akkermansia muciniphila by reducing the oxidation–reduction potential of the media and activating the metabolism pathways involving energy and nucleic acid metabolism, protein synthesis, and environmental adaptation, thereby facilitating the nutrient ...

Biochemical characterization of phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinases from Arabidopsis thaliana [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
ATP-dependent phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinases (PEPCKs, EC 4.1.1.49) from C4 and CAM plants have been widely studied due to their crucial role in photosynthetic CO2 fixation.

Differential Abundance of Protein Acylation in Mycobacterium tuberculosis Under Exposure to Nitrosative Stress

open access: yesPROTEOMICS – Clinical Applications, Volume 18, Issue 6, November 2024.
ABSTRACT Background: Human macrophages generate antimicrobial reactive nitrogen species in response to infection by Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb). Exposure to these redox‐reactive compounds induces stress response in Mtb, which can affect posttranslational modifications (PTM). Methods: Here, we present the global analysis of the PTM acylation of Mtb

The mitochondrial and cytosolic forms of avian phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (GTP) are encoded by different messenger RNAs. [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 1982
Previous work from our laboratory (Watford, M., Hod, Y., Chiao, Y. B., Utter M. F., and Hanson R. W. (1981) J. Biol. Chem. 256, 10023-10027) indicated that in the chicken, hepatic phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase is in the mitochondria, whereas kidney contains both a mitochondrial and cytosolic form of the enzyme. In the present study the two forms of

Proteomic profiling reveals the transglutaminase-2 externalization pathway in kidneys after unilateral ureteric obstruction [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Increased export of transglutaminase-2 (TG2) by tubular epithelial cells (TECs) into the surrounding interstitium modifies the extracellular homeostatic balance, leading to fibrotic membrane expansion.

The activation of Chlamydomonas reinhardtii alpha amylase 2 by glutamine requires its N‐terminal aspartate kinase–chorismate mutase–tyrA (ACT) domain

open access: yesPlant Direct, Volume 8, Issue 6, June 2024.
Abstract The coordination of assimilation pathways for all the elements that make up cellular components is a vital task for every organism. Integrating the assimilation and use of carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) is of particular importance because of the high cellular abundance of these elements.
