An ABC transporter containing a forkhead-associated domain interacts with a serine-threonine protein kinase and is required for growth of Mycobacterium tuberculosis in mice [PDF]
Forkhead-associated (FHA) domains are modular phosphopeptide recognition motifs with a striking preference for phosphothreonine-containing epitopes. FHA domains have been best characterized in eukaryotic signaling pathways but have been identified in six

Activating Silent Glycolysis Bypasses in Escherichia coli
All living organisms share similar reactions within their central metabolism to provide precursors for all essential building blocks and reducing power. To identify whether alternative metabolic routes of glycolysis can operate in E.

Little is known about the role of glycolysis in cellular senescence. Here, authors report that glycolysis-derived serine biosynthesis activates PKM2 to phosphorylate histone H3T11, prevent cell senescence, and promote healthy aging.

Erythropoietin-induced serine 727 phosphorylation of STAT3 in erythroid cells is mediated by a MEK-, ERK-, and MSK1-dependent pathway [PDF]
Objective. Erythropoietin (EPO) is a key regulator of erythropoiesis, playing a role in both the proliferation and differentiation of erythroid cells.

The Effect of Single and Multiple SERAT Mutants on Serine and Sulfur Metabolism
The gene family of serine acetyltransferases (SERATs) constitutes an interface between the plant pathways of serine and sulfur metabolism. SERATs provide the activated precursor, O-acetylserine for the fixation of reduced sulfur into cysteine by ...

ΔNp63α drives serine synthesis to promote carboplatin resistance in NSCLC
Serine metabolism is a critical vulnerability in cancer; however, its role in mediating therapeutic resistance in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) remains incompletely understood.

The phosphorylated pathway of serine biosynthesis links plant growth with nitrogen metabolism
Because it is the precursor for various essential cellular components, the amino acid serine is indispensable for every living organism. In plants, serine is synthesized by two major pathways: photorespiration and the phosphorylated pathway of serine ...
