Phospholipase C-ε (PLCε) integrates signaling from G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs) to downstream kinases to regulate a broad range of biological and pathophysiological responses. Relative to other PLCs, PLCε is unique in that it not ...

We recently discovered that the Warburg effect, defined by the dramatically enhanced metabolism of glucose to pyruvate, even in well-oxygenated cancer cells, can occur as a consequence of mutations that enhance lipid biosynthesis at the exp...

The synaptic vesicle (SV) cycle includes exocytosis of vesicles loaded with a neurotransmitter such as glutamate, coordinated recovery of SVs by endocytosis, refilling of vesicles, and subsequent release of the refilled vesicles from the pr...

Mechanistic target of rapamycin (mTOR) is a serine-threonine kinase that functions via two multiprotein complexes, namely mTORC1 and mTORC2, each characterized by different binding partners that confer separate functions. mTORC1 function is...

Recently, sphingolipid metabolizing enzymes have emerged as important targets of many chemotherapeutics and DNA damaging agents and therefore play significant roles in mediating the physiological response of the cell to DNA damage. In this ...

The family of phosphatidylinositol 5-phosphate 4-kinases (PI5P4Ks) is emerging from a comparative backwater in inositide signalling into the mainstream, as is their substrate, phosphatidylinositol 5-phosphate (PI5P). Here we review some of ...
