University of Wisconsin researchers and their collaborators at Yale published findings in early November which changed current understandings of the way cells in the pancreas regulate the release of ...

The results of the glycerol kinase studies are somewhat surprising in light of good evidence from several laboratories that mitochondrial metabolism of glucose generates important signals for insulin ...

A research group has developed an engineered E. coli strain that converts formic acid and CO2 to pyruvate and produces cellular energy from formic acid through reconstructed one-carbon pathways. The ...

Endogenous pyruvate is an end-product in glycolysis and a key molecule for ATP production under aerobic and anaerobic conditions, whereas exogenous pyruvate is transferred to cells via monocarboxylate ...

Osaka, Japan - Serine racemase (SRR) is a multifunctional enzyme that carries out several different reactions in human cells, including the conversion of L-serine into pyruvate. Despite already being ...

Drug target identification has a key role in the drug discovery value chain. A critical step in the development of pharmaceuticals is identifying the direct targets of potential drug candidates as ...

Pyruvate is produced by glycolysis, a process in which carbohydrates are broken down to create energy. Calcium pyruvate is a popular supplement that many people use primarily for its purported weight ...
