In natural environments, photosynthetic organisms adjust their metabolism to cope with the fluctuating availability of combined nitrogen sources, a growth-limiting factor. For acclimation, the dynamic degradation/synthesis of tetrapyrrolic pigments, as well as of the amino acid arginine, is ...
Nitisinone’s mosquitocidal properties hold promise for malaria control
Cells must continuously adjust metabolic output to maintain homeostasis under changing environmental conditions, yet the mechanisms that enable rapid and reversible control of pathway activity remain largely unknown. The methylerythritol phosphate (MEP) pathway, of bacterial origin and conserved ...
Ubiquitin-like protein ISG15 (interferon-stimulated gene 15) has been implicated in the regulation of central carbon metabolism, but conflicting findings across experimental systems have limited mechanistic insight. Here, we applied a multi-omics approach in cells ectopically expressing the ISGyl...
BACKGROUND: In all living organisms, DNA replication is exquisitely regulated in a wide range of growth conditions to achieve timely and accurate genome duplication prior to cell division. Failures in this regulation cause DNA damage with potentially disastrous consequences ...
Cells maintain metabolite homeostasis (metabolostasis) by buffering fluctuations in metabolite levels, yet the limits of this buffering and the mechanisms underlying metabolic toxicity remain poorly understood. To study this, we systematically overfed metabolites in Saccharomyces cerevisiae and q...
The Metabolomics workshop on experimental and data analysis training for untargeted metabolomics was hosted by the Proteomics Society of India in December 2019. The Workshop included six tutorial lectures and hands-on data analysis training sessions presented by seven speakers. The tutorials and ...
