“Infection caused by pathogenic bacteria (especially Gram-negative pathogens), including Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumonia, Pasteurella multocida and Pseudomonas aeruginosa, severely threatens ...

Researchers have new insights into the citric acid cycle: Certain bacteria can use this central metabolic pathway 'backwards', but to do so they must have very high concentrations of the enzyme ...

A research team has unraveled the three-dimensional structure and molecular mechanism of ATP citrate lyase (ACLY). This is a central metabolic enzyme -- a protein that accelerates chemical reactions - ...

The citric acid cycle is also known as the Krebs cycle or the tricarboxylic acid cycle. It is a series of reactions in a closed loop that are fundamental for cellular respiration. The citric acid ...
