The glycyl radical enzyme pyruvate formate-lyase (PFL) synthesizes acetyl-CoA and formate from pyruvate and CoA. With the crystal structure of the non-radical form of PFL in complex with its two subst...
Pyruvate, Pi dikinase, which is localized in the mesophyll chloroplasts of C4 plants, requires a high adenylate energy charge for conversion of the enzyme from the inactive to the active form. The ina...
A method is described to measure the intracellular content of pyruvate and lactate in epididymal adipose tissue of the rat. The intracellular pyruvate concentration was approx. 330mum. Intracellular p...
Isolated hepatocytes were prepared from the periportal and perivenous regions of the liver of 18-h-starved rats. These showed characteristics enzyme patterns and an enhanced rate of ureagenesis in the...
Using the bovine kidney pyruvate dehydrogenase complex we have investigated the mechanism whereby about three pyruvate dehydrogenase (active form) kinase molecules, tightly bound to the dihydrolipoyl ...
