GAME9 regulates the biosynthesis of steroidal alkaloids and upstream isoprenoids in the plant mevalonate pathway [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Steroidal glycoalkaloids (SGAs) are cholesterol-derived molecules produced by solanaceous species. They contribute to pathogen defence but are toxic to humans and considered as anti-nutritional compounds.

ALOX15B controls macrophage cholesterol homeostasis via lipid peroxidation, ERK1/2 and SREBP2

open access: yesRedox Biology
Macrophage cholesterol homeostasis is crucial for health and disease and has been linked to the lipid-peroxidizing enzyme arachidonate 15-lipoxygenase type B (ALOX15B), albeit molecular mechanisms remain obscure.

FGF11 influences 3T3‐L1 preadipocyte differentiation by modulating the expression of PPARγ regulators

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, 2019
Fibroblast growth factor 11 (FGF11) is a member of the intracellular fibroblast growth factor superfamily. Here, we identified FGF11 as a novel mediator of adipogenesis.

Changes to cholesterol trafficking in macrophages by Leishmania parasites infection [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Leishmania spp. are protozoan parasites that are transmitted by sandfly vectors during blood sucking to vertebrate hosts and cause a spectrum of diseases called leishmaniases.

Nutrient sensor O-GlcNAc transferase controls cancer lipid metabolism via SREBP-1 regulation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Elevated O-GlcNAcylation is associated with disease states such as diabetes and cancer. O-GlcNAc transferase (OGT) is elevated in multiple cancers and inhibition of this enzyme genetically or pharmacologically inhibits oncogenesis.

Cellular and molecular characterization of the sterol-regulatory element-binding protein-1

open access: yes, 2004
Human cells maintain lipid homeostasis by regulated cleavage of membranebound transcription factors, so-called sterol-regulatory element-binding proteins (SREBPs). The mature forms of SREBP-1 and -2 are transcriptional activators of lipogenic genes controlling cholesterol, fatty acids, and triglyceride biosynthesis and uptake.

The role of NF-Y in the transcriptional regulation of human topoisomerase II¯ : a thesis presented to Massey University in partial fulfilment of the requirement for the degree of Master of Science in Biochemistry [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
DNA topoisomerases are ubiquitous enzymes that catalyse reactions that alter the topological state of DNA during the various processes of DNA metabolism including transcription, recombination, replication and chromosome segregation. Human cells exhibit a
