NMR and Patch-Clamp Characterization of Yeast Mitochondrial Pyruvate Carrier Complexes [PDF]
The mitochondrial pyruvate carrier (Mpc) plays an indispensable role in the transport of pyruvates across the mitochondrial inner membrane. Despite the two distinct homologous proteins, Mpc1 and Mpc2, were identified in 2012, there are still ...

Selective Generation of Aldimine and Ketimine Tautomers of the Schiff Base Condensates of Amino Acids with Imidazole Aldehydes or of Imidazole Methanamines with Pyruvates—Isomeric Control with 2- vs. 4-Substituted Imidazoles [PDF]
The Schiff base condensation of 5-methyl-4-imidazole carboxaldehyde, 5Me4ImCHO, and the anion of an amino acid, H2N-CH(R)CO2− (R = -CH3, -CH(CH3)2 and -CH2CH(CH3)2), gives the aldimine tautomer, Im-CH=N-CH(R)CO2−, while that of 5-methylimidazole-4 ...

The Multifaceted Pyruvate Metabolism: Role of the Mitochondrial Pyruvate Carrier [PDF]
Pyruvate, the end product of glycolysis, plays a major role in cell metabolism. Produced in the cytosol, it is oxidized in the mitochondria where it fuels the citric acid cycle and boosts oxidative phosphorylation. Its sole entry point into mitochondria is through the recently identified mitochondrial pyruvate carrier (MPC).

The relationships between transketolase, yeast pyruvate decarboxylase and pyruvate dehydrogenase of the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex [PDF]
The amino acid sequences of four thiamine pyrophosphate‐requiring enzymes were aligned with the published amino acid sequence of the transketolase of Hansenula polymorpha. Sequences of the combined α and β subunits of the E1 enzyme of the pyruvate dehydrogenase complexes of Homo sapiens and Bacillus stearothermophilus aligned well with the ...
