Expressions and roles of key enzymes in serine synthesis pathway in NaAsO2-treated HaCaT cells
BackgroundThe key enzymes of serine synthesis pathway (SSP) play an important role in tumor growth, proliferation, and invasion, but their roles in arsenic carcinogenesis are unclear.ObjectiveTo observe the effects of NaAsO2 treatment on the expressions ...

Phosphoserine Aminotransferase in Soybean Root Nodules [PDF]
Phosphoserine aminotransferase activity was detected in the plant and bacteroid fractions from soybean (Glycine max) root nodules. Both total and specific activities increased in the plant fraction during nodule development. Serine-pyruvate aminotransferase activity was not detectable in the plant or bacteroid fractions of these nodules.

[179] Phosphoserine aminotransferase (sheep brain)
Publisher Summary This chapter focuses on Phosphoserine Aminotransferase (Sheep Brain). The chapter begins with a discussion of Assay method. Phosphohydroxypyruvate is prepared by hydrolysis of the hydroxypyruvic acid phosphate dimethylketal according to the procedure of Ballou.

Phosphoserine Aminotransferase, the Second Step-Catalyzing Enzyme for Serine Biosynthesis [PDF]
AbstractAs a step toward analyzing the serine biosynthetic pathway in mammals, we have studied the properties of phosphoserine aminotransferase, the second step‐catalyzing enzyme. The Km values for 3‐phosphohydroxypyruvate and L‐phosphoserine are 5 and 35 mu M, respectively, and those for glutamate and alpha‐ketoglutarate are 1.2 and 0.8 mM ...

A phosphoserine phosphatase variant present in the brain of Alzheimer's disease patients favors nuclear mistargeting. [PDF]
l‐serine levels in the human brain are maintained by the phosphorylated pathway, a three‐step process catalyzed by phosphoglycerate dehydrogenase (PHGDH), phosphoserine aminotransferase (PSAT) and phosphoserine phosphatase (PSP). These enzymes assemble in a metabolon called the serinosome. The double R27S/D32G PSP variant was identified in the brain of

Targeting the Serine Pathway: A Promising Approach against Tuberculosis?
Tuberculosis is still the leading cause of death by a single infectious agent. Effective chemotherapy has been used and improved since the 1950s, but strains resistant to this therapy and most antibacterial drugs on the market are emerging.

Studies on Phosphoserine Aminotransferase of Sheep Brain
Abstract Phosphoserine aminotransferase has been purified about 500-fold from sheep brain extracts by ammonium sulfate precipitation and Sephadex and diethylaminoethyl cellulose chromatography. On ultracentrifugation, the enzyme migrated in a single peak with a sedimentation constant of 4.2 S.
