The enzymatic transformation of uridine diphosphate glucose into a galactose derivative [PDF]

Archives of Biochemistry and Biophysics, 1951
Abstract Treatment of uridine diphosphate glucose (UDPG) with an enzyme of S. fragilis was found to produce about 25% of a galactose-containing compound. This compound is precipitated with mercuric ions like UDPG, and its migration in chromatography in acid-ethanol is similar.

Metabolic Dynamics of Central Carbon Pathways in Green‐Lipped Mussels under Heat Stress and Subsequent Recovery

New Zealand Journal of Marine and Freshwater Research, Volume 60, Issue 1, March 2026.
Green‐lipped mussel (Perna canaliculus) aquaculture is vulnerable to environmental changes, which are increasingly being studied to pinpoint physiological, economic and ecological threats. This study utilised a targeted liquid chromatography‐mass spectrometry metabolomics approach, focusing on the central carbon metabolism, to examine the metabolic ...

OsUGT88C3 Encodes a UDP-Glycosyltransferase Responsible for Biosynthesis of Malvidin 3-O-Galactoside in Rice

Plants
The diversity of anthocyanins is largely due to the action of glycosyltransferases, which add sugar moieties to anthocyanidins. Although a number of glycosyltransferases have been identified to glycosylate anthocyanidin in plants, the enzyme that ...

Species-Specific Differences in the Susceptibility of Fungi to the Antifungal Protein AFP Depend on C-3 Saturation of Glycosylceramides [PDF]

, 2019
AFP is an antimicrobial peptide (AMP) produced by the filamentous fungus Aspergillus giganteus and is a very potent inhibitor of fungal growth that does not affect the viability of bacteria, plant, or mammalian cells.

Mild Short‐Term Caloric Restriction Induces Coordinated Changes That Promote Lipid Deposition While Maintaining Thermogenesis Capacity in Interscapular Brown Adipose Tissue of Male Rats

The FASEB Journal, Volume 40, Issue 3, 15 February 2026.
Rats under mild caloric restriction (85% vs. ad libitum) for 2 weeks show metabolic and structural adaptations in iBAT. Caloric restriction increases glycolysis and triglyceride deposition in the tissue, leading to larger lipid droplets. It also reduces mitochondrial iBAT content, while maintaining iBAT thermogenic potential thanks to an increased ...

Distinct Metabolomic Alterations Are Associated With Physical Function, Weight Loss, and Muscle Mass in Men With Cancer

Journal of Cachexia, Sarcopenia and Muscle, Volume 17, Issue 1, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Treatments for cancer cachexia, defined as involuntary weight and muscle mass loss leading to significant functional impairment, remain unavailable partly due to insufficient improvement of clinically meaningful outcomes in current trials.

Production of Glycopeptide Derivatives for Exploring Substrate Specificity of Human OGA Toward Sugar Moiety. [PDF]

, 2018
O-GlcNAcase (OGA) is the only enzyme responsible for removing N-acetyl glucosamine (GlcNAc) attached to serine and threonine residues on proteins. This enzyme plays a key role in O-GlcNAc metabolism.

Lactogenesis in the rat. Metabolism of uridine diphosphate galactose by mammary gland [PDF]

Biochemical Journal, 1968
1. Lactose synthetase activity in the rat mammary gland increases during the last day of pregnancy from an essentially zero value. There is a parallel increase of tissue lactose and of glucose 6-phosphate dehydrogenase activity. 2. Mammary-gland homogenates prepared both before and after parturition hydrolyse the lactose precursors glucose 6-phosphate,

AglH, a thermophilic UDP‑N‑acetylglucosamine‑1‑phosphate:dolichyl phosphate GlcNAc‑1‑phosphotransferase initiating protein N‑glycosylation pathway in Sulfolobus acidocaldarius, is capable of complementing the eukaryal Alg7 [PDF]

, 2016
AglH, a predicted UDP-GlcNAc-1-phosphate:dolichyl phosphate GlcNAc-1-phosphotransferase, is initiating the protein N-glycosylation pathway in the thermoacidophilic crenarchaeon Sulfolobus acidocaldarius. AglH successfully replaced the endogenous GlcNAc-1-
