Metabolic networks are interconnected and influence diverse cellular processes. The protein-metabolite interactions that mediate these networks are frequently low affinity and challenging to systematically discover. We developed mass spectrometry integrated with equilibrium dialysis for the disco...
Despite the largely beneficial impact of bariatric surgery on obesity and metabolic disease, many patients continue to suffer from obesity after surgery and weight recurrence is common. The success of bariatric surgery may be impacted by diet. While bariatric surgery guidelines recommend a high-p...
The ATPase Family AAA Domain Containing 3A (ATAD3A), is a mitochondrial inner membrane protein conserved in metazoans. ATAD3A has been associated with several mitochondrial functions, including nucleoid organization, cholesterol metabolism, and mitochondrial translation. To address its primary ro...
Increased protein acetylation is frequently observed in the failing heart, including in hearts with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). However, the role of protein acetylation in cardiac metabolic impairments during the pathogenesis of HFpEF remains insufficiently investigate...
The evolution of new enzymatic functions is constrained and guided by the architecture of an organism’s metabolic and regulatory networks and environmental constraints. Here, we identify a kinase that has evolved from pyruvate phosphate dikinase. Through biochemical and systems-lev...
