Project description:To investigate the alteration of gene expression in IMS32cell under 5 or 15 mM glucose in the presence or absence of 1 mM pyruvate conditions, we conduced microarray analysis.
Project description:Proteome data obtained with timsTOF Pro of the fission yeast cells exposed to glucose starvation at four time points 0 (glucose rich conditions), 15, 60 and 120 minutes
Project description:NRAS and BRAF are the most commonly found genetic alterations in melanoma. It has been demonstrated that NRAS and BRAF oncogenic alterations, even affecting the same signaling pathway, represent two different clinical and biochemical entities, showing different signaling patterns and biological responses. Metabolic reprogramming is considered a novel target to control cancer; however, it is mostly unknown how the NRAS oncogene contributes to this cancer hallmark. We have showed that NRAS-mutated melanomas harbor specific metabolic alterations that render cells sensitive to RAS pathway inhibition upon metabolic stress. Gene expression analysis has confirmed different transcriptional profiles of NRAS- and BRAF- mutant cells both, under basal conditions and in response to glucose starvation. Moreover, analysis of glucose metabolism-related genes expression regulation revealed PFKFB2 as an important player linking glycolysis and RAS pathway activation.
Project description:To determine which genes are affected by methylated Pontin, we performed RNA-sequencing (RNA-seq) in Pontin WT and RA MEFs after glucose starvation.
Project description:We have identified a methanol- and biotin-starvation-inducible zinc finger protein named ROP [repressor of phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PEPCK)] in the methylotrophic yeast Pichia pastoris. When P.pastoris strain GS115 (wild-type, WT) is cultured in biotin-deficient, glucose ammonium (Bio-) medium, growth is suppressed due to the inhibition of anaplerotic synthesis of oxaloacetate, catalysed by the biotin-dependent enzyme pyruvate carboxylase (PC). Deletion of ROP results in a strain (∆ROP) that can grow under biotin-deficient conditions due to derepression of a biotin- and PC-independent pathway of anaplerotic synthesis of oxaloacetate. Northern analysis as well as microarray expression profiling of RNA isolated from WT and ∆ROP strains cultured in Bio(-) medium indicate that expression of the phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase gene (PEPCK) is induced in ∆ROP during biotin- or PC-deficiency even under glucose-abundant conditions. There is an excellent correlation between PEPCK expression and growth of ∆ROP in Bio(-) medium, suggesting that ROP-mediated regulation of PEPCK may have a crucial role in the biotin- and PC-independent growth of the ∆ROP strain. To our knowledge, ROP is the first example, of a zinc finger transcription factor involved in the catabolite repression of PEPCK in yeast cells cultured under biotin- or PC-deficient and glucose-abundant conditions.

Project description:The adaptation of tumor cells to metabolic stress is crucial for tumor development. We demonstrate that the translation of NRF2, a master regulator of antioxidant response, is controlled by the OGDH-METTL3 axis in melanoma for glucose starvation adaptation. To elucidate the regulatory mechanism of the OGDH-METTL3 axis during glucose starvation, we conducted co-immunoprecipitation and mass spectrometry analysis to identify the binding partner of OGDH that governs both the OGDH-METTL3 axis and tumor cell adaptation to glucose deprivation.
Project description:To investigate mechanism of inosine promotes the survival and metabolism of MDA-MB-231 cells under starvation conditions, MDA-MB-231 cells were treated with inosine and glucose for 12h under starvation conditions. We then performed gene expression profiling analysis using data obtained from RNA-seq of MDA-MB-231 cells under three different treatments(-G-Q,Inosine,Glucose).
