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 ...
ADP/ATP carriers (AACs) are major and essential constituents of the inner mitochondrial membrane. They drive the import of ADP and the export of newly synthesized ATP. They were described as functional dimers from the 1980s until the structures of the AAC ...
Glucose-evoked mitochondrial signals augment ATP synthesis in the pancreatic β cell. This activation of energy metabolism increases the cytosolic ATP/ADP ratio, which stimulates plasma membrane electrical activity and insulin granule exocytosis. We have re ...
ABSTRACT A new form of metabolic flux analysis (MFA) called thermodynamics-based metabolic flux analysis (TMFA) is introduced with the capability of generating thermodynamically feasible flux and metabolite activity profiles on a genome scale. TMFA involve ...
The oligomerization state of the ADP/ATP carrier is an important issue in understanding the mechanism underlying nucleotide exchange across the inner mitochondrial membrane. The first high resolution structure obtained in the presence of carboxyatractylosi ...
Cytosolic-free [Ca2+] was evaluated in freshly dissociated smooth muscle cells from mouse thoracic aorta by the ratio of Fura Red and Fluo 4 emitted fluorescence using confocal microscopy. The role of intercellular communication in forming and shaping ATP- ...
Plasmodium falciparum is incapable of de novo purine biosynthesis, and is absolutely dependent on transporters to salvage purines from the environment. Only one low-affinity adenosine transporter has been characterized to date. In the present study we repo ...
Classical neuroenergetics states that glucose is the exclusive energy substrate of brain cells and its full oxidation provides all the necessary energy to support brain function. Recent data have revealed a more intricate picture in which astrocytes play a ...
Glutamate uptake into astrocytes and the resulting increase in intracellular Na+ (Na+(i)) have been identified as a key signal coupling excitatory neuronal activity to increased glucose utilization. Arguments based mostly on mathematical modeling led to th ...
Aerobic chemostat cultures of S. cerevisiae were performed at different diln. rates under energy (glucose) limitation or at various extents of energy excess imposed by a N limitation. Energy excess induced metabolic uncoupling under steady-state conditions ...
