Improvement of succinate production from methane by combining rational engineering and laboratory evolution in Methylomonas sp. DH-1

Microbial Cell Factories
Recently, methane has been considered a next-generation carbon feedstock due to its abundance and it is main component of shale gas and biogas. Methylomonas sp. DH-1 has been evaluated as a promising industrial bio-catalyst candidate.

Variations in physiological, biochemical, and structural traits of photosynthesis and resource use efficiency in maize and teosintes (NADP-ME-type C4)

Plant Production Science, 2017
C4 plants show higher photosynthetic capacity and resource use efficiency than C3 plants. However, the genetic variations of these traits and their regulatory factors in C4 plants still remain to be resolved.

Anionic Phospholipids Induce Conformational Changes in Phosphoenolpyruvate Carboxylase to Increase Sensitivity to Cathepsin Proteases

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2019
Phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase (PEPC) is a cytosolic, homotetrameric enzyme that serves a variety of functions in plants, acting as the primary form of CO2 fixation in the C4 photosynthesis pathway (C4-PEPC).

The antisense expression of AhPEPC1 increases seed oil production in peanuts (Arachis hypogaea L.)

Grasas y Aceites, 2016
Although phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylases (PEPCs) are reported to be involved in fatty acid accumulation, nitrogen assimilation, and salt and drought stresses, knowledge regarding PEPC gene functions is still limited, particularly in peanuts (Arachis ...

Interaction of Macroions and Dioxane with the Allosteric Phosphoenolpyruvate Carboxylase

Journal of Biological Chemistry, 1966
Abstract Phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase from Salmonella typhimurium is activated by basic compounds such as polylysine, protamine, histone, and spermidine. Ionic strength and pH of the assay medium are contributory factors for the activation of the enzyme by polylysine.

Transcriptomic changes associated with PCK1 overexpression in hepatocellular carcinoma cells detected by RNA-seq

Genes and Diseases, 2020
Phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase 1 (PCK1), a step limiting enzyme of gluconeogenesis, is downregulated in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Overexpression of PCK1 has been shown to suppress hepatoma cell growth, but the underlying mechanism remains ...
