Glutamate transport and cellular glutamine metabolism : regulation in LLC-PK1 vs. LLC-PK1-F+ cell lines
The glutamate (Glu) transporter may modulate cellular glutamine (Gln) metabolism by regulating both the rates of hydrolysis and subsequent conversion of Glu. to alpha-ketoglutarate and NH4+. By delivering Glu, a competitive inhibitor of Gln for the phosphate-dependent glutaminase (PDG) as well as an...

Zusammenfassung: | The glutamate (Glu) transporter may modulate cellular glutamine (Gln) metabolism by regulating both the rates of hydrolysis and subsequent conversion of Glu. to alpha-ketoglutarate and NH4+. By delivering Glu, a competitive inhibitor of Gln for the phosphate-dependent glutaminase (PDG) as well as an acid-load activator of glutamate dehydrogenase (GDH) flux, the transporter may effectively substitute extracellularly generated Glu from the gamma-glutamyltransferase for that derived intracellularly from Gln. |
