    X-ray structure and enzymatic study of a bacterial NADPH oxidase highlight the activation mechanism of eukaryotic NOX

    Isabelle Petit-Hartlein, Annelise Vermot ... Franck Fieschi
    Detailed molecular characterization of a constitutively active bacterial NADPH oxidase (NOX) provides clues to the activation mechanism required to trigger electron transfer and reactive oxygen species (ROS) production in tightly regulated eukaryotic NOX.

    Mechanism of stepwise electron transfer in six-transmembrane epithelial antigen of the prostate (STEAP) 1 and 2

    Kehan Chen, Lie Wang ... Gang Wu
    Six-transmembrane epithelial antigen of the prostate isoform 1 (STEAP1) can establish a physiologically relevant electron transfer chain and STEAP2 can transfer electrons via a diffusible FAD mechanism.

    MYC overrides HIF-1α to regulate proliferating primary cell metabolism in hypoxia

    Courtney A Copeland, Benjamin A Olenchock ... William M Oldham
    Hypoxia does not increase glycolysis in proliferating primary cells and antagonizes the increase in glycolysis caused by activation of hypoxia-inducible factor in normoxia, in part, through activation of MYC signaling pathways.

    Evolution of C4 photosynthesis predicted by constraint-based modelling

    Mary-Ann Blätke, Andrea Bräutigam
    Constraint-based modelling predicts C4 photosynthesis evolves under resource limitation from an ancestral ground state of C3 photosynthesis and attributes divergent metabolic routes in extant C4 subtypes to light.

    Instability in NAD+ metabolism leads to impaired cardiac mitochondrial function and communication

    Knut H Lauritzen, Maria Belland Olsen ... Arne Yndestad
    Transgenic mice and cell models provide evidence of a pathophysiological mechanism that connects mtDNA damage to cardiac dysfunction via reduced NAD+ levels and loss of mitochondrial function and communication.

    Differential requirements for mitochondrial electron transport chain components in the adult murine liver

    Nicholas P Lesner, Xun Wang ... Prashant Mishra
    Animal models reveal that mitochondrial complex I is dispensable for homeostatic functions of the mouse liver.

    Nicotinamide mononucleotide adenylyltransferase uses its NAD+ substrate-binding site to chaperone phosphorylated Tau

    Xiaojuan Ma, Yi Zhu ... Dan Li
    Mechanistic insight into the chaperone-like activity of NMNAT to phosphorylated Tau reveals a connection between NAD+metabolism and Tau homeostasis.

    Structure of human phagocyte NADPH oxidase in the resting state

    Rui Liu, Kangcheng Song ... Lei Chen
    The cryo-EM structure of a functional human NOX2-p22 complex in nanodisc in the resting state reveals the architecture of this key enzyme essential for innate immunity.

    Dynamics of co-substrate pools can constrain and regulate metabolic fluxes

    Robert West, Hadrien Delattre ... Orkun S Soyer
    Mathematical analyses explore the impact of co-substrate cycling on the dynamics of cellular metabolism, and demonstrate that these dynamics can limit cellular fluxes and that co-substrate pool dynamics can be regulated to regulate fluxes.
