MetabolomicsEnvironmental impacts on barley grain composition and longevity

To counter projected reductions in yields of the major crop barley, it is essential to elucidate the mechanisms of its resilience. To assist such efforts, we collected grains from plants grown in fields at 12 testing stations, with suitable temperature and precipitation gradients for identifying ...

MetabolomicsMultiomics of synaptic junctions reveals altered lipid metabolism and signaling following environmental enrichment
Membrane lipids and their metabolism have key functions in neurotransmission. Here we provide a quantitative lipid inventory of mouse and rat synaptic junctions. To this end, we developed a multiomics extraction and analysis workflow to probe the interplay of proteins and lipids in synaptic signal t...

MetabolomicsMetabolic Responses of a Model Green Microalga Euglena gracilis to Different Environmental Stresses

Euglena gracilis, a green microalga known as a potential candidate for jet fuel producers and new functional food resources, is highly tolerant to antibiotics, heavy metals and other environmental stresses. Its cells contain many high-value products, including vitamins, amino acids, pigm...

MetabolomicsExtracellular ATP is an environmental cue in bacteria

In animals and plants extracellular ATP (eATP) functions as signal and regulates the immune response. During inflammation intestinal bacteria are exposed to elevated eATP originating from the mucosa. However, whether bacteria respond to eATP is unclear. Here we show that non-pathogenic Escherichi...

MetabolomicsExposure to environmental hazard pesticide rotenone triggers redox driven system-wide lipidome alterations and metabolic trade-offs linked to Parkinson’s disease

With the global rise in aging populations, the increasing incidence of neurodegenerative diseases underscores concerns about brain health, with pesticides like rotenone, emerging as key environmental hazardous. The precise mechanism by which chronic environmental concentration of rotenone exposur...

MetabolomicsMetabolomic and gene expression approaches reveal the developmental and environmental regulation of the secondary metabolism of yacón (Smallanthus sonchifolius, Asteraceae)
Acting as chemical defense or signaling compounds, secondary metabolites (SMs) play an essential role in the evolutionary success of many angiosperm plant families. However, the adaptive advantages that SMs confer, and the influence of environmental and developmental factors on SMs expression, remai...

MetabolomicsGain-of-function genetic screens in human cells identify SLC transporters overcoming environmental nutrient restrictions

Solute carrier (SLC) transporters control fluxes of nutrients and metabolites across membranes and thereby represent a critical interface between the microenvironment and cellular and subcellular metabolism. Because of substantial functional overlap, the interplay and relative contributions of SL...

MetabolomicsThe metabolic response of marine copepods to environmental warming and ocean acidification in the absence of food
Marine copepods are central to the productivity and biogeochemistry of marine ecosystems. Nevertheless, the direct and indirect effects of climate change on their metabolic functioning remain poorly understood. Here, we use metabolomics, the unbiased study of multiple low molecular weight organic me...

MetabolomicsEnterococcus faecalis readily adapts membrane phospholipid composition to environmental and genetic perturbation

The bacterial lipid membrane, consisting both of fatty acid (acyl) tails and polar head groups, responds to changing conditions through alteration of either the acyl tails and/or head groups. This plasticity is critical for cell survival as it allows maintenance of both the protective nature of t...

MetabolomicsHigh metabolic variation for seaweeds in response to environmental changes: a case study of the brown algae Lobophora in coral reefs
In the marine environment, macroalgae face changing environmental conditions and some species are known for their high capacity to adapt to the new factors of their ecological niche. Some macroalgal metabolites play diverse ecological functions and belong to the adaptive traits of such species. Beca...
