Recently the function of the sirtuin family, named after their homology to the Saccharomyces cerevisiae gene silent information regulator 2 (Sir2), has received a lot of attention, as their beneficial impact on longevity was linked to their effects on meta ...
14-3-3 proteins are phosphoserine/threonine-binding proteins that play important roles in many regulatory processes, including intracellular protein targeting. 14-3-3 proteins can anchor target proteins in the cytoplasm and in the nucleus or can mediate th ...
The NAD(+)-dependent deacetylase SIRT1 controls metabolic processes in response to low nutrient availability. We report the metabolic phenotype of mice treated with SRT1720, a specific and potent synthetic activator of SIRT1 that is devoid of direct action ...
The understanding of dynamic metabolic regulations is important for physiol. studies and strain characterization tasks. The present study combined transient expts. with online metabolic flux anal. (MFA) in order to quantify metabolic regulations, namely ca ...
The biological function of most proteins relies on reversible post-translational modifications, among which phosphorylation is most prominently studied and well recognized. Recently, a growing amount of evidence indicates that acetylation-deacetylation rea ...
Transcriptional control of metabolic circuits requires coordination between specific transcription factors and coregulators and is often deregulated in metabolic diseases. We characterized here the mechanisms through which the coactivator SRC-3 controls en ...
Thermodynamic feasibility analysis (TFA) has been used as a toot capable of providing additional constraints to the mass balance-based methods of analysis of Metabolic networks (e.g., flux balance analysis). Several publications have recently appeared in w ...
Import and export of metabolites through mitochondrial membranes are vital processes that are highly controlled and regulated at the level of the inner membrane. Proteins of the mitochondrial carrier family ( MCF ) are embedded in this membrane, and each m ...
More than 70 years after its initial report, caloric restriction stands strong as the most consistent non- pharmacological intervention increasing lifespan and protecting against metabolic disease. Among the different mechanisms by which caloric restrictio ...
14-3-3 proteins are evolutionarily conserved and ubiquitous proteins that function in a wide variety of biological processes. Here we define a new role for C. elegans 14-3-3 proteins in life span regulation. We identify two C. elegans 14-3-3 proteins as in ...
