MECHANISMS BY WHICH CARBOHYDRATES REGULATE EXPRESSION OF GENES FOR GLYCOLYTIC AND LIPOGENIC ENZYMES
1 Jul 1997
Abstract excerpt
Regulation of gene expression by nutrients is an important mechanism in the adaptation of mammals to their nutritional environment. This is especially true for enzymes involved in the storage of energy, such as the lipogenic and glycolytic enzymes in liver and adipose tissue. Transcription of the genes for lipogenic and glycolytic enzymes is stimulated by glucose in adipose tissue, liver, and pancreatic...
