- Mutational analysis of allosteric activation and inhibition of glucokinase
[作者:Zelent, B; Odili, S; Buettger, C; Zelent, DK; Chen, P; Fenner, D; Bass, J; Stanley, C; Laberge, M; Vanderkooi, JM; Sarabu, R; Grimsby, J; Matschinsky, FM,期刊:Biochemical Journal, 页码:203-215 , 文章类型: Article,,卷期:2011年440-2]
- GK (glucokinase) is activated by glucose binding to its substrate site, is inhibited by GKRP (GK regulatory protein) and stimulated by GKAs (GK activator drugs). To explore further the mechanisms of these processes we st...
- Peripheral insertion modulates the editing activity of the isolated CP1 domain of leucyl-tRNA synthetase
[作者:Liu, RJ; Tan, M; Du, DH; Xu, BS; Eriani, G; Wang, ED,期刊:Biochemical Journal, 页码:217-227 , 文章类型: Article,,卷期:2011年440-2]
- A large insertion domain called CP1 (connective peptide I) present in class Ia aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases is responsible for post-transfer editing. LeuRS (leucyl-tRNA synthetase) from Aquifex aeolicus and Giardia lamblia...
- Overexpression of a cytosolic pyrophosphatase (TgPPase) reveals a regulatory role of PP(i) in glycolysis for Toxoplasma gondii
[作者:Pace, DA; Fang, JM; Cintron, R; Docampo, MD; Moreno, SNJ,期刊:Biochemical Journal, 页码:229-240 , 文章类型: Article,,卷期:2011年440-2]
- PP(i) is a critical element of cellular metabolism as both an energy donor and as an allosteric regulator of several metabolic pathways. The apicomplexan parasite Toxoplasma gondii uses PP, in place of ATP as an energy d...
- The heterotrimeric G protein subunits G alpha(q) and G beta(1) have lysophospholipase D activity
[作者:Aoyama, C; Sugimoto, H; Ando, H; Yamashita, S; Horibata, Y; Sugimoto, S; Satou, M,期刊:Biochemical Journal, 页码:241-250 , 文章类型: Article,,卷期:2011年440-2]
- In a previous study we purified a novel lysoPLD (lysophospholipase D) which converts LPC (lysophosphatidylcholine) into a bioactive phospholipid, LPA (lysophosphatidic acid), from the rat brain. In the present study, we ...
