Potential therapeutic use of the ketogenic diet in autism spectrum disorders. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The ketogenic diet (KGD) has been recognized as an effective treatment for individuals with glucose transporter 1 (GLUT1) and pyruvate dehydrogenase (PDH) deficiencies as well as with epilepsy.

Inactivation of Pseudomonas putida KT2440 pyruvate dehydrogenase relieves catabolite repression and improves the usefulness of this strain for degrading aromatic compounds

open access: yesMicrobial Biotechnology
Pyruvate dehydrogenase (PDH) catalyses the irreversible decarboxylation of pyruvate to acetyl‐CoA, which feeds the tricarboxylic acid cycle. We investigated how the loss of PDH affects metabolism in Pseudomonas putida.

Comparative proteomics analysis of root and nodule mitochondria of soybean

open access: yesPlant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
Abstract Legumes perform symbiotic nitrogen fixation through rhizobial bacteroids housed in specialised root nodules. The biochemical process is energy‐intensive and consumes a huge carbon source to generate sufficient reducing power. To maintain the symbiosis, malate is supplied by legume nodules to bacteroids as their major carbon and energy source ...

Covalently bound substrate at the regulatory site triggers allosteric enzyme activation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
The mechanism by which the enzyme pyruvate decarboxylase from yeast is activated allosterically has been elucidated. A total of seven three-dimensional structures of the enzyme, of enzyme variants or of enzyme complexes form two yeast species (three of ...

The multifaceted roles of ketones in physiology

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract The production of ketones, referred to as ketogenesis, plays an essential role in maintaining energy homeostasis during prolonged fasting/starvation, which primarily stems from its ability to serve as a fuel source to support neuronal ATP production, thereby limiting muscle wasting. Over the years, the field has come to appreciate that ketones

Branched chain aldehydes: production and breakdown pathways and relevance for flavour in foods [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Branched aldehydes, such as 2-methyl propanal and 2- and 3-methyl butanal, are important flavour compounds in many food products, both fermented and non-fermented (heat-treated) products. The production and degradation of these aldehydes from amino acids

A structural phylogeny for understanding 2-oxoacid oxidoreductase function [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
2-Oxoacid:ferredoxin oxidoreductases (OFORs) are essential enzymes in microbial one-carbon metabolism. They use thiamine pyrophosphate to reversibly cleave carbon-carbon bonds, generating low potential (~-500 mV) electrons. Crystallographic analysis of a

pdh modulate virulence through reducing stress tolerance and biofilm formation of Streptococcus suis serotype 2

open access: yesVirulence, 2019
Streptococcus suis serotype 2 (S. suis 2) is a zoonotic pathogen. It causes meningitis, arthritis, pneumonia and sepsis in pigs, leading to extremely high mortality, which seriously affects public health and the development of the pig industry.

13C Tracers for Glucose Degrading Pathway Discrimination in Gluconobacter oxydans 621H

open access: yesMetabolites, 2015
Gluconobacter oxydans 621H is used as an industrial production organism due to its exceptional ability to incompletely oxidize a great variety of carbohydrates in the periplasm. With glucose as the carbon source, up to 90% of the initial concentration is

Metabolic modeling identifies determinants of thermal growth responses in Arabidopsis thaliana

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 247, Issue 1, Page 178-190, July 2025.
Summary Temperature is a critical environmental factor affecting nearly all plant processes, including growth, development, and yield. Yet, despite decades of research, we lack the ability to predict plant performance at different temperatures, limiting the development of climate‐resilient crops.
