Examples of "oxaloacetate" in Sentences
- Glycine oxaloacetate transaminase.
- Pyridoxamine oxaloacetate transaminase.
- The precursor to asparagine is oxaloacetate.
- Oxaloacetate is the first substrate to bind to the enzyme.
- It is involved in the production of oxaloacetate from pyruvate.
- Upon more thinking, oxaloacetate is also a precursor to glucose.
- Oxaloacetate is converted to aspartate using a transaminase enzyme.
- It converts oxaloacetate into phosphoenolpyruvate and carbon dioxide.
- PEPCase converts oxaloacetate into phosphoenolpyruvate and carbon dioxide.
- In the end, oxaloacetate is regenerated to continue the citric acid cycle.
- The latter is converted to oxaloacetate and then malate in the Krebs cycle.
- Activities enzymes concerned pyruvate oxaloacetate metabolism heart liver developing sheep
- Hence the body probably will prefer the amino acid et al --oxaloacetate-- glucose pathway first.
- Gluconeogenesis consumes oxaloacetate, which is essential for the entry of Acetyl CoA into the Krebs cycle.
- Only when the body is sated with glucose will the oxaloacetate then be used by the kreb cycle= end of ketosis.
- When supplies of oxaloacetate are low, the liver converts the increasing levels of Acetyl CoA into ketone bodies.
- The data imply that PEPC is critically involved in replenishing the oxaloacetate pool in the citrate cycle under virulence conditions.
- Entner-Doudoroff pathway, of oxaloacetate formation via the citrate cycle, and of amino acid biosynthesis suggest that both regulators trigger the central metabolism of Y. enterocolitica.
- My understanding (and your GREAT elucidations on a lot of medical explanations-thank you) is that Acetyl CoA will enter the mitochondria (kreb cycle) if and only if oxaloacetate (made directly from some amino acids and indirectly thru glycerol,some a.a.’s and glucose via pyruvate ) is present.
- Thus, the role of Hfq appears to be at most marginal for the virulence of SCHU S4 but considering that the difference compared to the parental strain was marginal also in subspecies holarctica, the contribution of Hfq may not be distinct between subspecies Gluconeogenesis in the absence of pyruvate requires the functions of phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PEPCK), encoded by pckA, which catalyses the decarboxylation and phosphorylation of oxaloacetate to form phosphoenolpyruvate (PEP) [62].
