Inferring Compensatory Kinase Networks in Yeast using Prolog [PDF]

open access: yesEPTCS 385, 2023, pp. 260-273, 2023
Signalling pathways are conserved across different species, therefore making yeast a model organism to study these via disruption of kinase activity. Yeast has 159 genes that encode protein kinases and phosphatases, and 136 of these have counterparts in humans.

LIGHT-SABRE hyperpolarizes 1-^{13}C-pyruvate continuously, without magnetic field cycling [PDF]

open access: yesJ. Phys. Chem. C 2023, 127, 14, 6744-6753, 2023
Nuclear spin hyperpolarization enables real-time observation of metabolism and intermolecular interactions in vivo. 1-13C-Pyruvate is the leading hyperpolarized tracer currently under evaluation in several clinical trials as a promising molecular imaging agent.

Protein kinase function of pyruvate kinase M2 and cancer

open access: yesCancer Cell International, 2020
Pyruvate kinase is a terminal enzyme in the glycolytic pathway, where it catalyzes the conversion of phosphoenolpyruvate to pyruvate and production of ATP via substrate level phosphorylation.

Crystal structure of Cryptosporidium parvum pyruvate kinase. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
Pyruvate kinase plays a critical role in cellular metabolism of glucose by serving as a major regulator of glycolysis. This tetrameric enzyme is allosterically regulated by different effector molecules, mainly phosphosugars.

Transcriptional and Biochemical Characterization of Cytosolic Pyruvate Kinases in Arabidopsis thaliana

open access: yesPlants, 2020
Glycolysis is a central catabolic pathway in every living organism with an essential role in carbohydrate breakdown and ATP synthesis, thereby providing pyruvate to the tricarboxylic acid cycle (TCA cycle).

Rapid inhibition of pyruvate dehydrogenase: an initiating event in high dietary fat-induced loss of metabolic flexibility in the heart. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
Cardiac function depends on the ability to switch between fatty acid and glucose oxidation for energy production in response to changes in substrate availability and energetic stress.

From Glucose to Lactate and Transiting Intermediates Through Mitochondria, Bypassing Pyruvate Kinase: Considerations for Cells Exhibiting Dimeric PKM2 or Otherwise Inhibited Kinase Activity

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2020
A metabolic hallmark of many cancers is the increase in glucose consumption coupled to excessive lactate production. Mindful that L-lactate originates only from pyruvate, the question arises as to how can this be sustained in those tissues where pyruvate

A monomeric form of pyruvate kinase in human pyruvate kinase deficiency. [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 1977
A mutant pyruvate kinase (ATP:pyruvate 2-O-phosphotransferase, EC 2.7.1.40) from human erythrocytes which is easily separated into monomers and dimers by gel chromatography is described. Tht mutant enzyme shows almost the same pH optimum and thermostability as normal enzyme, but has a decreased stability on shaking with air, a decreased Km for ...

Pyruvate Kinase M2 and Cancer: The Role of PKM2 in Promoting Tumorigenesis

open access: yesFrontiers in Oncology, 2020
Pyruvate kinase plays a pivotal role in regulating cell metabolism. The final and rate-limiting step of glycolysis is the conversion of Phosphoenolpyruvate (PEP) to Pyruvate, which is catalyzed by Pyruvate Kinase. There are four isomeric, tissue-specific
