Site-directed mutagenesis of the proposed catalytic amino acids of the Sindbis virus capsid protein autoprotease [PDF]

, 1990
The structural proteins of Sindbis virus are translated as a polyprotein precursor that is cleaved upon translation. The capsid protein is postulated to be a serine protease that releases itself from the N terminus of the nascent polyprotein by ...

Role of G{alpha}12 and G{alpha}13 as Novel Switches for the Activity of Nrf2, a Key Antioxidative Transcription Factor [PDF]

, 2007
G{alpha}12 and G{alpha}13 function as molecular regulators responding to extracellular stimuli. NF-E2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) is involved in a protective adaptive response to oxidative stress.

Serine biosynthesis with one carbon catabolism represents a novel pathway for ATP generation in cells using alternative glycolysis with zero net ATP production [PDF]

, 2011
Recent experimental evidence indicates that some cancer cells have an alternative glycolysis pathway with net zero ATP production, implying that upregulation of glycolysis in these cells may not be related to the generation of ATP.

Enzymatic Phosphorylation of Serine

Journal of Biological Chemistry, 1972
Abstract The occurrence of a pyrophosphate:l-serine phosphotransferase in extracts of Propionibacterium shermanii is reported. A 102-fold purification, with 15% recovery, was obtained by successive use of protamine sulfate precipitation, acidification, ammonium sulfate precipitation, and chromatography on DEAE-cellulose and on Bio-Gel P-150 columns ...

Dietary Serine Supplementation Improves Growth Performance, Intramuscular Fat Content, and Composition of Gut Microbes and Metabolites in Growing–Finishing Pigs

Agriculture
Serine is widely involved in antioxidant synthesis, immune response, and fat metabolism. However, it remains unclear whether dietary serine supplementation affects fat deposition in the skeletal muscles of pigs.

Personal model‐assisted identification of NAD+ and glutathione metabolism as intervention target in NAFLD

Molecular Systems Biology, 2017
To elucidate the molecular mechanisms underlying non‐alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), we recruited 86 subjects with varying degrees of hepatic steatosis (HS).

Cellular Redox Imbalance and Neurochemical Effect in Cognitive-Deficient Old Rats

Behavioral Sciences, 2018
The purpose of the present study is to access the linkage between dysregulation of glutamatergic neurotransmission, oxidative metabolism, and serine signaling in age-related cognitive decline.

Supplementation with serine-enriched non-essential amino acids from minimum essential medium promotes blastocyst development of in vitro-fertilized bovine embryos

The Journal of Reproduction and Development
To produce an embryo, a high conception rate must be complied along with four evaluation criteria based on the timing of early cleavage and proper embryo morphology (hereafter, these blastocysts will be referred to as “four-criteria-compliant blastocysts”

A systematically-revised ribosome profiling method for bacteria reveals pauses at single-codon resolution

eLife, 2019
In eukaryotes, ribosome profiling provides insight into the mechanism of protein synthesis at the codon level. In bacteria, however, the method has been more problematic and no consensus has emerged for how to best prepare profiling samples.
