Proline utilization A (PutA) proteins are bifunctional proline catabolic enzymes that catalyze the 4-electron oxidation of l-proline to l-glutamate using spatially-separated proline dehydrogenase and l-glutamate-γ-semialdehyde dehydrogenase (GSALDH, a.k.a. ALDH4A1) active sites. The observation that l-proline inhibits both the GSALDH activity
Cancer cells demand excess nutrients to support their proliferation, but how tumours exploit extracellular amino acids during systemic metabolic perturbations remain incompletely understood. Here, we use a Drosophila model of high-sugar diet (HSD)-enhanced tumourigenesis to uncover a systemic host-tumour metabolic
A new diketopiperazine alkaloid named spirotryprostatin K (1), and five known alkaloids, spiro[5H,10H-dipyrrolo[1,2-a:1',2'-d]pyrazine-2(3H),2'-[2H]-indole]-3',5,10(1'H) trione (2), 6-methoxyspirotryprostatin B (3), pseurotin A (4), N-β-acetyltryptamine (5), and lumichrome (6) were isolated from the endophytic fungus Aspergillus fumigatus. The structure and the absolute configuration
Chiral metabolites are found in a wide variety of living organisms and some of them are understood to be physiologically active compounds and biomarkers. However, the overall analysis of chiral metabolomics is quite difficult due to the high number of
