General Information

General Information Comment Organism
metabolism the citrate-malate-pyruvate cycle serves to regenerate NAD+ and maintain glycolytic flux. Pyruvate cycles all lead to the exchange of reducing equivalents from mitochondrial NADH to cytosolic NADPH. Malic enzyme is integral to the coupling of metabolism with insulin secretion Rattus norvegicus
physiological function malate that is exported from the mitochondria to the cytosol is regenerated to pyruvate by cytosolic malic enzyme for cycling back to the mitochondria. Cytosolic malic enzyme, together with ATP citrate lyase and malate dehydrogenase, is also central to recycling of citrate back to pyruvate. Cytosolic malic enzyme in the beta-cell supports the concept that the mechanisms linking metabolism with insulin secretion may include a beta-cell pyruvate-malate cycle. siRNA knockdown and isotopic labeling strategies to evaluate the role of cytosolic and mitochondrial isozymes of malic enzyme in facilitating malate-pyruvate cycling in the context of fuel-stimulated insulin secretion, overview Rattus norvegicus
