Dissecting the Effects of Concentrated Carbohydrate Solutions on Protein Diffusion, Hydration, and Internal Dynamics

Matteo Dal Peraro, Luciano Andres Abriata, Francesco Piazza, Enrico Spiga

We present herein a thorough description of the effects of high glucose concentrations on the diffusion, hydration and internal dynamics of ubiquitin, as predicted from extensive molecular dynamics simulations on several systems described at fully atomisti ...

Estimating reliability of blood glucose concentration predictions in patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus

Denis Gillet, Grégory François, Alain Bock

Blood glucose concentrations of patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus are subject to very high inter- and intra-patient variability. This variability may be detrimental to the reliability of the treatment, thus resulting in potentially frequent hypo- or h ...

Multilayered genetic and omics dissection of mitochondrial activity in a mouse reference population

Johan Auwerx, Evan Graehl Williams, Adrienne Joëlle Laurence Mottis, Virginija Jovaisaite, Ruedi Aebersold, Sébastien Dubuis

The manner by which genotype and environment affect complex phenotypes is one of the fundamental questions in biology. In this study, we quantified the transcriptome--a subset of the metabolome--and, using targeted proteomics, quantified a subset of the li ...

Glucose-Sensitive QCM-Sensors Via Direct Surface RAFT Polymerization

Harm-Anton Klok, Caroline Sugnaux

Thin, phenylboronic acid-containing polymer coatings are potentially attractive sensory layers for a range of glucose monitoring systems. This contribution presents the synthesis and properties of glucose-sensitive polymer brushes obtained via surface RAFT ...

Hepatic glucose sensing and integrative pathways in the liver

Kristina Schoonjans, Maaike Hélène Oosterveer

The hepatic glucose-sensing system is a functional network of enzymes and transcription factors that is critical for the maintenance of energy homeostasis and systemic glycemia. Here we review the recent literature on its components and metabolic actions. ...

Enhanced Conversion of Carbohydrates to the Platform Chemical 5-Hydroxymethylfurfural Using Designer Ionic Liquids

Paul Joseph Dyson, Rosario Scopelliti, Gabor Laurenczy, Zhaofu Fei, Ning Yan, Sviatlana Siankevich

5-Hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) is a key platform chemical that may be obtained from various cellulosic (biomass) derivatives. Previously, it has been shown that ionic liquids (ILs) facilitate the catalytic conversion of glucose into HMF. Herein, we demonstr ...

An evolutionarily conserved role for the aryl hydrocarbon receptor in the regulation of movement

Johan Auwerx, Bart Deplancke, Laurent Mouchiroud, Pénélope Andreux, Evan Graehl Williams, Michael Vincent Frochaux

The BXD genetic reference population is a recombinant inbred panel descended from crosses between the C57BL/6 (B6) and DBA/2 (D2) strains of mice, which segregate for about 5 million sequence variants. Recently, some of these variants have been established ...

Toward Quantitative Measurements of Enzyme Kinetics by Dissolution Dynamic Nuclear Polarization

Geoffrey Bodenhausen, Aurélien Bornet, Sami Jannin, Jonas Milani, Daniel Abergel

Dissolution dynamic nuclear polarization (D-DNP) experiments enabled us to study the kinetics of the enzymatic phosphorylation reaction of glucose to form glucose-6-phosphate (G6P) by hexokinase (HK), with or without the presence of an excess of G6P, which ...

Impact of hepatic lipid accumulation and composition on glucose tolerance and insulin sensitivity: a longitudinal study in male and female mice

Rolf Gruetter, Hongxia Lei, Ana Francisca Leal Silva Soares

Background and aims: Metabolic disruptions characterized by high hepatic lipid content (HLC) are associated with impairments in whole body glucose homeostasis. To gain insight on the role of hepatic lipids in the metabolic performance in the absence artifi ...

New tool for studying the biosynthetic role of glucose in brain at the nanometer scale

Anders Meibom, Graham Knott, Stéphane Laurent Escrig, Arnaud Comment, Yuhei Takado, Mojgan Masoodi

Background: The brain consumes a considerable amount of glucose relative to its size. Brain glucose is a source of energy, mainly via oxidative phosphorylation, as well as a source of building blocks for synthesising macromolecules. Little is known about t ...
