Protein-protein interactions and metabolite channelling in the plant tricarboxylic acid cycle

Protein complexes of sequential metabolic enzymes, often termed metabolons, may permit direct channelling of metabolites between the enzymes, providing increased control over metabolic pathway fluxes. Experimental evidence supporting their existence in vivo remains fragmentary. In the present study, we test binary interactions of the proteins constituting the plant tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycl...

Propionate metabolism in Saccharomyces cerevisiae: implications for the metabolon hypothesis.

Aerobic, glucose-limited chemostat of Saccharomyces cerevisiae CBS 8066 co-metabolized propionate when this compound was added to the reservoir medium. Co-metabolism of propionate led to an increase of the biomass and protein yields. Attempts to grow S. cerevisiae on propionate as a sole source of carbon and energy were not successful. Activities of propionyl-CoA synthetase in cell-free extract...

Transport metabolons with carbonic anhydrases

THE CONCEPT OF THE TRANSPORT METABOLON A metabolon has been defined as a “temporary, structural-functional, supramolecular complex of sequential metabolic enzymes and cellular structural elements, in which metabolites are passed from one active site to another without complete equilibration with the bulk cellular fluids” (Srere, 1985, 1987). This substrate channeling should decrease transit tim...

Application of citrate as a tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle intermediate, prevents diabetic-induced heart damages in mice

Objective(s):Higher cellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels is important in reducing cellular energy charge (EC) by increasing the levels of key metabolic protein, and nitrosative modifications, and have been shown to damage the cardiac tissue of diabetic mice. However, the relation between energy production and heart function is unclear. Materials and Methods:Streptozotocin (STZ, 150 mg...

Identification of a multienzyme complex of the tricarboxylic acid cycle enzymes containing citrate synthase isoenzymes from Pseudomonas aeruginosa.

A multienzyme complex of tricarboxylic acid cycle enzymes, catalysing the consecutive reactions from fumarate to 2-oxoglutarate, has been identified in extracts of Pseudomonas aeruginosa prepared by gentle osmotic lysis of the cells. The individual enzyme activities of fumarase, malate dehydrogenase, citrate synthase, aconitase and isocitrate dehydrogenase can be used to reconstitute the comple...
