Journal ArticleDOI

AMP-activated protein kinase, super metabolic regulator.

TL;DR: The AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) is a metabolic-stress-sensingprotein kinase that regulates metabolism in response to energy demand and supply by directly phosphorylating rate-limiting enzymes in metabolic pathways as well as controlling gene expression.
Journal ArticleDOI

Model for growth hormone receptor activation based on subunit rotation within a receptor dimer

TL;DR: It is shown that there is no substantial change in the crystal structure of the liganded and unliganded human GHR extracellular domain, and an activation mechanism involving a relative rotation of subunits within a dimeric receptor as a result of asymmetric placement of the receptor-binding sites on the ligand is proposed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Intrasteric control of AMPK via the γ1 subunit AMP allosteric regulatory site

TL;DR: It is proposed that ATP acts as an intrasteric inhibitor by bridging the α and γ subunits and that AMP functions to derepress AMPK activity.
Journal ArticleDOI

Nitrosylation of human glutathione transferase P1-1 with dinitrosyl diglutathionyl iron complex in vitro and in vivo

TL;DR: Electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy studies on intact Escherichia coli cells expressing the recombinant GST P1-1 enzyme indicate that bacterial cells, in response to NO treatment, are able to form the dinitrosyl diglutathionyl iron complex using intracellular iron and GSH.
