Natural Variation in Maize Shikimate Dehydrogenase Alters Enzyme Activity and Kernel Homoserine Accumulation.

Rajnee Hasan, Gen Xu, Taiwo Adeolu Dele-Osibanjo, Niaz Bahar Chowdhury, Connor Pedersen, Rajib Saha, Jinliang Yang, Toshihiro Obata

The paper identifies genetic variants in the shikimate dehydrogenase gene Sad1 that affect enzyme activity and homoserine accumulation in maize kernels through integrated metabolite profiling and genome-scale modeling.

Dynamic assembly of malate dehydrogenase-citrate synthase multienzyme complex in the mitochondria

Joy J. Omini, Inga Krassovskaya, Taiwo Adeolu Dele-Osibanjo, Connor Pedersen, Toshihiro Obata

This study shows that the MDH1-CIT1 metabolon dynamically assembles and disassembles in yeast mitochondria in response to respiratory activity and metabolic conditions.
