Fructose metabolism in Chromohalobacter salexigens: interplay between the Embden–Meyerhof–Parnas and Entner–Doudoroff pathways [PDF]

open access: yesMicrobial Cell Factories, 2019
Background The halophilic bacterium Chromohalobacter salexigens metabolizes glucose exclusively through the Entner–Doudoroff (ED) pathway, an adaptation which results in inefficient growth, with significant carbon overflow, especially at low salinity ...

PKP1 promotes lung cancer by modulating energy metabolism through stabilization of PFKP [PDF]

open access: yesBiomarker Research
Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide, with lung squamous cell carcinoma (LUSC) lacking effective targeted therapies. Recent studies have identified Plakophilin-1 (PKP1) as one of the most differentially overexpressed genes ...

PFKM-Mediated Glycolysis: A Pathway for ASIC1 to Enhance Cell Survival in the Acidic Microenvironment of Liver Cancer [PDF]

open access: yesBiomolecules
The acidic tumor microenvironment plays a critical role in promoting liver cancer cell survival by enhancing glycolysis and adaptive mechanisms. Acid-sensing ion channel 1 (ASIC1) is a key regulator of pH sensing, but its role in liver cancer progression

In Streptococcus thermophilus, Ammonia from Urea Hydrolysis Paradoxically Boosts Acidification and Reveals a New Regulatory Mechanism of Glycolysis

open access: yesMicrobiology Spectrum, 2022
Streptococcus thermophilus is widely used in the dairy industry for the manufacturing of fermented milk and cheeses and probiotic formulations. S. thermophilus evolved from closely phylogenetically related pathogenic streptococci through loss-of-function

Research progress on the mechanism of glycolysis in ovarian cancer

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2023
Glycolysis is the preferred energy metabolism pathway in cancer cells even when the oxygen content is sufficient. Through glycolysis, cancer cells convert glucose into pyruvic acid and then lactate to rapidly produce energy and promote cancer progression.

The Phosphofructokinase Isoform AtPFK5 Is a Novel Target of Plastidic Thioredoxin-f-Dependent Redox Regulation

open access: yesAntioxidants, 2021
The chloroplast primary metabolism is of central importance for plant growth and performance. Therefore, it is tightly regulated in order to adequately respond to multiple environmental conditions.

Myostatin Mutation Promotes Glycolysis by Increasing Phosphorylation of Phosphofructokinase via Activation of PDE5A-cGMP-PKG in Cattle Heart

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2022
Myostatin (MSTN) is a primary negative regulator of skeletal muscle mass and causes multiple metabolic changes. However, whether MSTN mutation affects heart morphology and physiology remains unclear.

Metabolic insights into phosphofructokinase inhibition in bloodstream-form trypanosomes

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2023
Previously, we reported the development of novel small molecules that are potent inhibitors of the glycolytic enzyme phosphofructokinase (PFK) of Trypanosoma brucei and related protists responsible for serious diseases in humans and domestic animals ...
