Multi‐Omics and ‐Organ Insights into Energy Metabolic Adaptations in Early Sepsis Onset
Advanced Science, EarlyView.This study shows that patients at risk of sepsis have a distinct metabolite and lipid signature, including serine and aminoadipic acid, in their serum before clinical diagnosis. A mouse model of sepsis with a compatible serum signature reveals underlying metabolic changes, including mitochondrial adaptation, altered serine‐dependent purine metabolism ...

Elementary Mode Analysis for the Rational Design of Efficient Succinate Conversion from Glycerol by Escherichia coli [PDF]
, 2010 By integrating the restriction of oxygen and redox sensing/regulatory system, elementary mode analysis was used to predict the metabolic potential of glycerol for succinate production by E. coli under either anaerobic or aerobic conditions.

Glycolytic pyruvate kinase moonlighting activities in DNA replication initiation and elongation [PDF]
arXiv, 2020 Cells have evolved a metabolic control of DNA replication to respond to a wide range of nutritional conditions. Accumulating data suggest that this poorly understood control depends, at least in part, on Central Carbon Metabolism (CCM). In Bacillus subtilis , the glycolytic pyruvate kinase (PykA) is intricately linked to replication.

A Feedback Loop Between Fatty Acid Metabolism and Epigenetics in Clear Cell Renal Carcinoma
Advanced Science, EarlyView.The current study has profiled the landscape of active enhancers in ccRCC and identified FABP5 as an oncogene. FABP5 is essential for the lipid droplet formation driven by HIFs and critical for H3K27ac and enhancer activity. The study has discovered the function of a feedback loop between epigenetics and lipid metabolism regulated by FABP5 in ccRCC ...

Role of the glassy dynamics and thermal mixing in the dynamic nuclear polarization and relaxation mechanisms of pyruvic acid [PDF]
Phys. Chem. Chem. Phys., 2014,16, 27025-27036, 2014 The temperature dependence of $^1$H and $^{13}$C nuclear spin-lattice relaxation rate $1/T_1$ has been studied in the 1.6 K - 4.2 K temperature range in pure pyruvic acid and in pyruvic acid containing trityl radicals at a concentration of 15 mM. The temperature dependence of $1/T_1$ is found to follow a quadratic power law for both nuclei in the two ...

Metabolic alterations in human pulmonary artery smooth muscle cells treated with PDGF‐BB
Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.Metabolic abnormalities are considered to play a key regulatory role in vascular remodeling of pulmonary arterial hypertension. We analyzed the metabolome in the culture supernatants of human pulmonary artery smooth muscle cells (PASMC) during the malignant proliferation phenotype transition via a targeted metabolomics method. Significant and extensive

An Update: Enzymatic Synthesis for Industrial Applications
Angewandte Chemie International Edition, EarlyView.Biocatalysis has become a sustainable and cost‐competitive alternative to established chemical synthesis, enabling the enzyme‐based production of not only commodity chemicals but (non‐natural) amino acids, (rare) sugars, as well as synthetic nucleotides.
