Diurnal Changes in Photosynthesis in Sugarcane Leaves: I. Carbon dioxide exchange rate, photosynthetic enzyme activities and metabolite levels relating to the C4 pathway and the Calvin cycle

open access: yesPlant Production Science, 2000
Diurnal changes in carbon dioxide exchange rate (CER), stomatal conductance (gs), photosynthetic enzyme activities and metabolite levels relating to the C4 pathway and the Calvin cycle in sugarcane (Saccharum sp. cv.

Genome‐Wide CRISPR/Cas9 Library Screening Revealed Dietary Restriction of Glutamine in Combination with Inhibition of Pyruvate Metabolism as Effective Liver Cancer Treatment

open access: yesAdvanced Science, 2022
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the second most lethal cancer worldwide. Glutamine is an essential, extracellular nutrient which supports HCC growth. Dietary glutamine deficiency may be a potential therapeutic approach for HCC.

Effect of pyruvate kinase gene deletion on the physiology of Corynebacterium glutamicum ATCC13032 under biotin-sufficient non-glutamate-producing conditions: Enhanced biomass production

open access: yesMetabolic Engineering Communications, 2015
The effect of pyruvate kinase gene (pyk) deletion on the physiology of Corynebacterium glutamicum ATCC13032 was investigated under biotin-sufficient, non-glutamate-producing conditions.

Characterization of the metabolic shift between oxidative and fermentative growth in Saccharomyces cerevisiae by comparative 13C flux analysis

open access: yesMicrobial Cell Factories, 2005
Background One of the most fascinating properties of the biotechnologically important organism Saccharomyces cerevisiae is its ability to perform simultaneous respiration and fermentation at high growth rate even under fully aerobic conditions.

Metabolic responses to pyruvate kinase deletion in lysine producing Corynebacterium glutamicum

open access: yesMicrobial Cell Factories, 2008
Background Pyruvate kinase is an important element in flux control of the intermediate metabolism. It catalyzes the irreversible conversion of phosphoenolpyruvate into pyruvate and is under allosteric control.

Generation of an induced pluripotent stem cell line (SHCDNi007-A) from a patient with pyruvate carboxylase deficiency carrying compound heterozygous (c.182 T > C/ c.2581G > A) variants in PC

open access: yesStem Cell Research, 2023
Pyruvate carboxylase (PC) deficiency (PCD), due to biallelic PC variants, is a rare inherited metabolic disease, which is characterized by seizures, global developmental delay, as well as lactic acidosis, and elevated plasma pyruvate and alanine levels ...

Targeting Pyruvate Carboxylase by a Small Molecule Suppresses Breast Cancer Progression

open access: yesAdvanced Science, 2020
Rapid metabolism differentiates cancer cells from normal cells and relies on anaplerotic pathways. However, the mechanisms of anaplerosis‐associated enzymes are rarely understood.

Breast Cancer-Derived Lung Metastases Show Increased Pyruvate Carboxylase-Dependent Anaplerosis

open access: yesCell Reports, 2016
Cellular proliferation depends on refilling the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle to support biomass production (anaplerosis). The two major anaplerotic pathways in cells are pyruvate conversion to oxaloacetate via pyruvate carboxylase (PC) and glutamine ...

Ketogenic Diet: An Early Option for Epilepsy Treatment, Instead of A Last Choice Only

open access: yesBiomedical Journal, 2012
Ketogenic diet (KD) was usually tried as a last resort in the treatment of intractable epilepsy after failure of many antiepileptics and even epilepsy surgery. Glucose transporter-1 deficiency and pyruvate dehydrogenase deficiency must be treated with KD
