Association between cytosolic glycerol 3-phosphate dehydrogenase gene expression in human subcutaneous adipose tissue and BMI.
BACKGROUND/AIMS Cytosolic glycerol 3-phosphate dehydrogenase (cGPDH) is a key enzyme providing glycerol 3-phosphate for triacylglycerol synthesis in adipose tissue and is regarded as a marker for adipocyte differentiation. The aim of this study was to test the hypothesis that an increase in cGPDH gene expression in subcutaneous adipose tissue is associated with obesity. METHODS mRNA levels in...
متن کاملInduction of glycerol phosphate dehydrogenase gene expression during seizure and analgesia.
Using mRNA differential display, we found that the gene for NAD(+)-dependent glycerol phosphate dehydrogenase (GPDH; EC 1.1.1.8) is induced in rat brain following seizure activity. Northern blot and in situ hybridization analysis confirmed the differential display results; they also showed, in a separate model of neuronal activation, that after thermal noxious stimulation of the hind-paws, a si...
متن کاملActivation of mitochondrial glycerol 3-phosphate dehydrogenase by cadmium ions.
Mitochondrial glycerol 3-phosphate dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.2.1.) requires Ca2+ ions for its activity. Cadmium ions also have activatory effect on the enzyme. They activate the glycerol 3-phosphate dehydrogenase in a very narrow concentration range (1-2 mmol/l). As contrasted with calcium, strong inhibitory effect occurred at higher concentrations (3-4 mmol/l). The inhibition induced by cadmium io...
متن کاملGlycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase homologue from Schizosaccharomyces pombe.
A gene encoding an S.pombe homologue of glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase was isolated from a XEMBL3 library. The clone was originally isolated because it hybridised to a rat BiP cDNA probe (1). Upon sequencing, however, it was found that there was no homology between this clone and BiP at the amino acid level. The open reading frame was used to search databases and the gene identified as an S...
متن کاملAnaerobic Glycerol-3-Phosphate Dehydrogenase and the glpD Operon Encoding Aerobic Glycerol-3-Phosphate Dehydrogenase in Escherichia coli: Further Characterization of Respiratory Control
In Escherichia coli, sn-glycerol-3-phosphate can be oxidized by two different flavo-dehydrogenases, an anaerobic enzyme encoded by the glpACB operon and an aerobic enzyme encoded by the glpD operon. These two operons belong to the glp regulon specifying the utilization of glycerol, sn-glycerol-3-phosphate, and glycerophosphodiesters. In glpR mutant cells grown under conditions of low catabolite...
