or oxidative phosphorylation. The following clinical case and questions focus on testing an understanding of various biochemical factors that affect blood glucose levels. The cases discuss the key ...

Because reactive oxygen species are produced via oxidative phosphorylation during anaerobic glycolysis, via the Schiff reaction during glycation, via glucose autoxidation, and via hexosamine ...

A mutation in one of the alleles of the gene encoding glucokinase leads to a reduction in beta-cell glucokinase activity, resulting in decreased glucose phosphorylation in the beta cell and ...

Scientists knew that Myo1c was somehow involved in the regulation of glucose transport. The new research indicates that insulin regulates Myo1c function via CaMKII-dependent phosphorylation ...
