The activity of 5’-adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase (AMPK) is inversely correlated with the cellular availability of glucose. When glucose levels are low, the glycolytic enzyme aldolase is not bound to fructose-1,6-bisphosphate (FBP) and, instead, signals to activate lysosomal AMPK. ...
Aldolase contains eight free cysteine residues without disulfide formation in its native state, which makes it a suitable model to manipulate the oxidative modifications on cysteine. H2O2 was chosen to treat aldolase since the principle product between which is sulfenic acid.To assess the reduction ...

Reelin is a large, secreted glycoprotein that is best known as an essential molecule directing neocortical neuronal migration, but reelin serves an important functional role in regulating neurite outgrowth and arborization as well. Canonically, reelin signals through the lipoprotein receptors apolip...
Ethylene glycol is a potential feedstock for next-generation biorefineries, as it can be derived from both plastic waste and carbon dioxide. The synthetic D-threose-dependent glycolaldehyde assimilation (STEGA) pathway, which is orthogonal to central metabolism of Escherichia coli, was recently cons...
