Catalytic upgrading of hydrothermal liquefaction biocrudes: Different challenges for different feedstocks [PDF]

Renewable Energy (2019), 2019
Hydrothermal liquefaction (HTL) followed by catalytic hydrotreating of the produced biocrude is increasingly gaining ground as an effective technology for the conversion of biomass into liquid biofuels. A strong advantage of HTL resides in its great flexibility towards the feedstock, since it is able to treat a large number of different organic ...

Oncometabolites: tailoring our genes [PDF]

, 2015
Increased glucose metabolism in cancer cells is a phenomenon that has been known for over 90 years, allowing maximal cell growth through faster ATP production and redistribution of carbons towards nucleotide, protein and fatty acid synthesis.

A new insight into role of phosphoketolase pathway in Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803

Scientific Reports, 2020
Phosphoketolase (PKET) pathway is predominant in cyanobacteria (around 98%) but current opinion is that it is virtually inactive under autotrophic ambient CO2 condition (AC-auto).

Differential gene expression in Chorthippus parallelus (Zetterstedt, 1821) (Orthoptera: Acrididae: Gomphocerinae) induced by Wolbachia infection

Insect Science, EarlyView.
Distinct lineages of the grasshopper Chorthippus parallelus (Orthoptera: Acrididae) form a well‐known hybrid zone (HZ) in the Pyrenees mountain range; the Iberian endemism C. p. erythropus (Cpe) and the subspecies C. p. parallelus, (Cpp) widely distributed throughout the rest of Europe. Both subspecies differ in diverse traits, including the strains of

Effects of Phosphorylation on Phosphoenolpyruvate Carboxykinase from the C4 Plant Guinea Grass [PDF]

, 2002
In the C4 plant Guinea grass (Panicum maximum), phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PEPCK) is phosphorylated in darkened leaves and dephosphorylated in illuminated leaves.

Augmenting the Calvin-Benson-Bassham cycle by a synthetic malyl-CoA-glycerate carbon fixation pathway. [PDF]

, 2018
The Calvin-Benson-Bassham (CBB) cycle is presumably evolved for optimal synthesis of C3 sugars, but not for the production of C2 metabolite acetyl-CoA.

Pathogenic mechanisms underlying X-linked Charcot-Marie-Tooth neuropathy (CMTX6) in patients with a pyruvate dehydrogenase kinase 3 mutation

Neurobiology of Disease, 2016
Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease (CMT) is the most common inherited peripheral neuropathy. An X-linked form of CMT (CMTX6) is caused by a missense mutation (R158H) in the pyruvate dehydrogenase kinase isoenzyme 3 (PDK3) gene.

Model-guided metabolic rewiring to bypass pyruvate oxidation for pyruvate derivative synthesis by minimizing carbon loss

mSystems
Engineering microbial hosts to synthesize pyruvate derivatives depends on blocking pyruvate oxidation, thereby causing severe growth defects in aerobic glucose-based bioprocesses.

Novel mitochondrial substrates of omi indicate a new regulatory role in neurodegenerative disorders. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2009
The mitochondrial protease OMI (also known as HtrA2) has been implicated in Parkinson's Disease (PD) and deletion or protease domain point mutations have shown profound neuropathologies in mice.

Multi‐Omics Reveal the Metabolic Changes in Cumulus Cells During Aging

Cell Proliferation, EarlyView.
Fatty acid β‐oxidation was elevated in cumulus cells from older mice. Tryptophan metabolism in aged cumulus cells was active. Supplementing with 5‐HT could mitigate aging damage in oocytes. ABSTRACT Maternal age has been reported to impair oocyte quality.
