Journal ArticleDOI
Phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase and pyruvate carboxylase in developing rat liver
F.J. Ballard,Richard W. Hanson +1 more
TL;DR: It is suggested that the appearance of the soluble phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase at birth initiates the rapid increase in overall gluconeogenesis at this stage.
Journal ArticleDOI
Purification of Phosphoenolpyruvate Carboxykinase from the Cytosol Fraction of Rat Liver and the Immunochemical Demonstration of Differences between This Enzyme and the Mitochondrial Phosphoenolpyruvate Carboxykinase
F.J. Ballard,Richard W. Hanson +1 more
TL;DR: It is concluded that the mitochrondrial and cytosol P-enolpyruvate carboxykinases are distinct enzymes, notwithstanding their uniform kinetic and physical properties.
Journal ArticleDOI
Phosphoenolpyruvate Carboxykinase and the Synthesis of Glyceride-Glycerol from Pyruvate in Adipose Tissue
TL;DR: Phosphoenolpyruvate-carboxykinase activity is present in soluble and mitochondrial fractions of adipose tissue; its activity increases with fasting when compared to the fasted-refed animal; and it is sufficiently high to account for the observed rates of conversion of pyruvates to glycerol.
Journal ArticleDOI
A Possible Physiological Role for Glyceroneogenesis in Rat Adipose Tissue
TL;DR: Findings support the role of P-enolpyruvate carboxykinase as a regulatory enzyme in the glycer oneogenic sequence and suggest that glyceroneogenesis is important in adipose tissue for the maintenance of free fatty acid esterification.
Journal ArticleDOI
The citrate cleavage pathway and lipogenesis in rat adipose tissue: replenishment of oxaloacetate.
F.J. Ballard,Richard W. Hanson +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the mitochondria and cytoplasm of epididymal adipose tissue cells were found to be active in both the primary and secondary cells of the human body.
