Functional Analysis of H + -Pumping Membrane-Bound Pyrophosphatase, ADP-Glucose Synthase, and Pyruvate Phosphate Dikinase as Pyrophosphate Sources in Clostridium thermocellum

Increased understanding of the central metabolism of C. thermocellum is important from a fundamental as well as from a sustainability and industrial perspective. In addition to showing that H + -pumping membrane-bound PPase, glycogen cycling, a Ppdk–malate shunt cycle, and acetate cycling are not significant sources of PP i supply, this study adds functional annotation of four genes and availability of an updated PP i stoichiometry from biosynthesis to the scientific domain.

Effects of pentobarbital on plasma glucose and free fatty acids in the rat.

Hyperglycemia and hypolipemia were observed in rats after the injection of sodium pentobarbital. The observed changes were independent of whether the blood was collected by decapitation or by needle puncture of the aorta. The hyperglycemic response was caused by two factors including the stress of the injection per se and the pharmacological action of the drug. Hyperlipemia was observed at 5 min postinjection. However, pentobarbital decreased plasma free fatty acids by 15 min postinjection. Both the hyperglycemia and hypolipemia responses were dose dependent.
