Researchers discover that glycogen and N-linked glycans accumulate in fibrotic regions of the lung and may be important for therapy development. Ramon Sun, a biochemist at the University of Florida ...
Glycogen, a hyperbranched polymer of glucose, plays a central role as an energy reserve across diverse organisms. In Escherichia coli, its biosynthesis is linked not only to energy storage but also to ...
Phosphatidylinositol 3-kinases (PI3Ks) are a family of enzymes that catalyze the phosphorylation of phosphatidylinositol at the D-3 position of the inositol ring, serving critical functions in ...
BACKGROUND: PYGM (muscle glycogen phosphorylase), the rate-limiting enzyme in glycogenolysis, plays an indispensable role in maintaining cardiac energy metabolism. However, the role of PYGM in the ...
In a scientific first, researchers from Vanderbilt University and the University of California, San Diego, have generated a high-resolution metabolic "map" of how cells orchestrate glucose processing, ...
