Pig liver pyruvate carboxylase. The reaction pathway for the decarboxylation of oxaloacetate [PDF]
1. The reaction pathway for the decarboxylation of oxaloacetate, catalysed by pig liver pyruvate carboxylase, was studied in the presence of saturating concentrations of K+ and acetyl-CoA. 2. Free Mg2+ binds to the enzyme in an equilibrium fashion and remains bound during all further catalytic cycles.

Decarboxylation of oxalacetate to pyruvate by purified avian liver phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase
Phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase, which has been isolated from chicken liver mitochondria in essentially homogenous form, carries out the irreversible decarboxylation of oxalacetate to pyruvate in the presence of catalytic amounts of GDP or IDP, as well as the reversible decarboxylation of oxalacetate to phosphoenolpyruvate in the presence of ...

Real-time carbon allocation into biogenic volatile organic compounds (BVOCs) and respiratory carbon dioxide (CO2) traced by PTR-TOF-MS, 13CO2 laser spectroscopy and 13C-pyruvate labelling. [PDF]
Our understanding of biogenic volatile organic compound (BVOC) emissions improved substantially during the last years. Nevertheless, there are still large uncertainties of processes controlling plant carbon investment into BVOCs, of some biosynthetic ...

Pyruvate Dehydrogenase Kinases: Therapeutic Targets for Diabetes and Cancers [PDF]
Impaired glucose homeostasis is one of the risk factors for causing metabolic diseases including obesity, type 2 diabetes, and cancers. In glucose metabolism, pyruvate dehydrogenase complex (PDC) mediates a major regulatory step, an irreversible reaction

The regulation and catalytic mechanism of the NADP-malic enzyme from tobacco leaves [PDF]
The non-photosynthetic NADP-malic enzyme EC 1.1.1.40 (NADP-ME), which catalyzes the oxidative decarboxylation of L-malate and NADP+ to produce pyruvate and NADPH, respectively, and which could be involved in plant defense responses, was isolated from ...

A Substrate-induced Biotin Binding Pocket in the Carboxyltransferase Domain of Pyruvate Carboxylase [PDF]
Biotin-dependent enzymes catalyze carboxyl transfer reactions by efficiently coordinating multiple reactions between spatially distinct active sites. Pyruvate carboxylase (PC), a multifunctional biotin-dependent enzyme, catalyzes the bicarbonate- and ...

Metabolic Response of the Immature Right Ventricle to Acute Pressure Overloading
BackgroundSurgical palliation or repair of complex congenital heart disease in early infancy can produce right ventricular (RV) pressure overload, often leading to acute hemodynamic decompensation.
