TLDR
A new role for glutamine as a lipogenic precursor is demonstrated and an alternative to the glutaminolysis pathway where flux of glutamine to lipogenic acetyl-CoA occurs via reductive carboxylation is proposed.

Aerobic Glycolysis: Meeting the Metabolic Requirements of Cell Proliferation

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors provide a detailed accounting of the biosynthetic requirements to construct a new cell and illustrate the importance of glycolysis in providing carbons to generate biomass.

Reductive carboxylation supports growth in tumour cells with defective mitochondria

TL;DR: These findings reveal the novel induction of a versatile glutamine-dependent pathway that reverses many of the reactions of the canonical CAC, supports tumour cell growth, and explains how cells generate pools of CAC intermediates in the face of impaired mitochondrial metabolism.

Glucose-Independent Glutamine Metabolism via TCA Cycling for Proliferation and Survival in B Cells

TL;DR: The metabolic responses of a MYC-inducible human Burkitt lymphoma model P493 cell line to aerobic and hypoxic conditions, and to glucose deprivation, are determined using stable isotope-resolved metabolomics to demonstrate an alternative energy-generating glutaminolysis pathway involving a glucose-independent TCA cycle.

Identification of uncommon plant metabolites based on calculation of elemental compositions using gas chromatography and quadrupole mass spectrometry

TL;DR: More than 15 uncommon plant metabolites were identified, some of which are novel in Arabidopsis, such as tartronate semialdehyde, citramalic acid, allothreonine, or glycolic amide.

Elementary metabolite units (EMU): A novel framework for modeling isotopic distributions

TL;DR: This work presents a novel framework for the modeling of isotopic labeling systems that significantly reduces the number of system variables without any loss of information and is most efficient for the analysis of labeling by multiple isotopic tracers.

Control of mitochondrial redox balance and cellular defense against oxidative damage by mitochondrial NADP+-dependent isocitrate dehydrogenase.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that IDPm is induced by ROS and that decreased expression of IDpm markedly elevates the ROS generation, DNA fragmentation, lipid peroxidation, and concurrent mitochondrial damage with a significant reduction in ATP level, and thus plays a key role in cellular defense against oxidative stress-induced damage.

Determination of confidence intervals of metabolic fluxes estimated from stable isotope measurements.

TL;DR: An efficient algorithm is developed to determine accurate flux confidence intervals and it is demonstrated that confidence intervals obtained with this method closely approximate true flux uncertainty.

The role of high rates of glycolysis and glutamine utilization in rapidly dividing cells

TL;DR: It is suggested that, in rapidly dividing ceils, high rates of glycolysis and glutaminolysis are required not for energy or precursor provision per se but for high sensitivity of the pathways involved in the use of precursors for macromolecular synthesis to specific regulators to permithigh rates of proliferation when required for example, in lymphocytes in response to a massive infection.
