The role of NAD+ compartmentation and dynamics in Arabidopsis thaliana
Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) is a fundamental coenzyme required to regulate plant central metabolism and redox status homeostasis. Plants produce NAD+ via de novo and salvage pathways. Despite early steps of the two pathways occur in different subcellular compartments, de novo in …

Subcellular compartmentation of primary carbon metabolism in mesophyll cells of Arabidopsis thaliana
Metabolismus in Pflanzenzellen ist stark kompartimentiert. Viele Stoffwechselwege haben Reaktionen in mehr als einem Kompartiment. Zum Beispiel wird während der Photosynthese in pflanzlichen Mesophyllzellen Kohlenstoff in Form von Stärke in den Chloroplasten synthetisiert, während es im Zytosol in …

On the role of sugar compartmentation and stachyose synthesis in symplastic phloem loading
Im Phloem werden Assimilate von den Source-Organen zu den Sink-Organen der Pflanze transportiert. Bei der Beladung des Phloems mit Assimilaten werden zwei mögliche Mechanismen unterschieden, die als apoplastische und symplastische Phloembeladung bezeichnet werden. Bei Pflanzenarten mit potentiell …

Study of the differential compartmentation and functions of hexokinase isoforms and implications for cancer metabolism
Selectivity is a very important consideration when designing cancer treatment. Therefore, targeting cancer-specific isoforms of key metabolic enzymes is a very promising strategy. Elevated glucose consumption and lactate secretion under aerobic conditions is a hallmark of many cancer cells. One of …

The Role of Phosphodiesterases in Cyclic Nucleotide Compartmentation Across Different Pathways in the Adult Rat Ventricular Myocyte
… This has led to the theory of cyclic nucleotide compartmentation, which has been postulated to be mediated by phosphodiesterases (PDEs). Research in this field has focused on compartmentation using β-adrenergic stimulation. As an extension of this work, we investigated the effects of two …

Regulation of Glycogenolysis in Anaerobic Skeletal Muscle
Functional compartmentation of anaerobic metabolism was demonstrated in intact tissue. Force-independent ATP utilization, primarily the Ca 2+ pump of the sarcoplasmic reticulum, preferentially uses ATP derived from glycogenolysis. ATP produced by creatine kinase is used mostly by force-dependent …

Fire Scenario Development for South African Hospitals
… therefore, depends heavily on the integrity of compartmentation, the functionality of fire protection systems, and the preparedness of staff to effectively implement defend-in-place procedures. Despite these risks, limited research has examined how operational practices and system reliability …

ΚΑΡΒΟΞΥΛΑΣΗ ΤΗΣ ΔΙΦΩΣΦΟΡΙΚΗΣ ΡΙΒΟΥΛΟΖΗΣ ΚΑΙ ΠΟΛΥΕΔΡΙΚΑ ΣΩΜΑΤΙΑ (ΚΑΡΒΟΞΥΣΩΜΑΤΑ) ΤΟΥ ΚΥΑΝΟΒΑΚΤΗΡΙΟΥ (CHLOROGLOEOPSIS FRITSCHII)
STUDIES HAVE BEEN PERFORMED ON THE INTRACELLULAR COMPARTMENTATION AND PROPERTIES OF RIBULOSE 1,5-BISPHOSPHATE (RUBP) CARBOXYLASE FROM THE CYANOBACTERIUM (BLUE-GREEN ALGA) CHLOROGLOEOPSIS FRITSCHII. 1) RUBP CARBOXYLASE WAS FOUND IN THESUPERNATANT (S1) AND PELLET (P1) FRACTIONS PRODUCED BY …

An In silico Liver: Model of gluconeogenesis
… regulation. The model also incorporates the compartmentation and inter-compartmental transports between the cytosol and the mitochondria, and transport of metabolites between blood compartment and the tissue. The model is based on the experimental set-up of fasted perfused rat livers. The …

Mode of Action of Abscisic Acid in Barley Aleurone Layers: Induction of Proteins by Abscisic Acid
… any apparent ABA increase. A model based on the compartmentation of intracellular ABA is proposed to explain the induction of ABA proteins by salt.

Contractile Performance and Energy Utilization of Skeletal Muscle; Creatine Kinase and Acto-myosin ATPase
… This study adds to the evidence for specific compartmentation of CK near sites of ATP utilization and contributes to the body of knowledge on contractile performance in skinned skeletal muscle fibers. By showing how changing demands on skeletal muscle (through increased Ca²⁺) alters force …

Characterization of the Fast Axonally Transported Proteins in the Rat Optic Pathway
… heterogenous transport initiation, kinetics, compartmentation, and intermolecular association. Since axons lack sorting organelles (e.g., Golgi), these results suggest that neurons have evolved complex mechanisms for differential delivery of FT proteins from the perikarya.</p>

Biochemical, Molecular and Functional Analysis of Volatile Terpene Formation in Arabidopsis Roots
… reflects evolutionary plasticity in subcellular compartmentation of TPS proteins with emerging or declining activity. Since (E)-β-farnesene inhibits Arabidopsis root growth in vitro, mitochondrial targeting of both proteins may fine tune (E)-β-farnesene concentrations to prevent possible …

Analysis of the maturation of Rhodococcus equi-containing vacuoles in macrophages
… of this study was to elucidate the intracellular compartmentation of R.equi and the mechanism by which the bacteria avoid destruction in host macrophages. The importance of the virulence-associated plasmids of R.equi for the establishment of RCVs was also evaluated. Furthermore, the intracellular …

Compositional Control of Phase-Separated Cellular Bodies
Cellular bodies such as P bodies and PML nuclear bodies (PML NBs) appear to be phase separated liquids organized by multivalent interactions among proteins and RNA molecules. Although many components of various cellular bodies are known, general principles that define body composition are lacking. …
