Abstract:
Abstract In eukaryotes, enzymes responsible for the interconversion of one-carbon units exist in parallel in both mitochondria and the cytoplasm. Strains of Saccharomyces cerevisiae were constructed that possess combinations of gene disruptions at the SHM1 [mitochondrial serine hydroxymethyltransferase (SHMTm)], SHM2 [cytoplasmic SHMT (SHMTc)], MIS1 [mitochondrial C1-tetrahydrofolate synthase (C1-THFSm)], ADE3 [cytoplasmic C1-THF synthase (C1-THFSc)], GCV1 [glycine cleavage system (GCV) protein T], and the GLY1 (involved in glycine synthesis) loci.

Abstract:
SHMT (serine hydroxymethyltransferase; EC 2.1.2.1) catalyses reversible hydroxymethyl group transfer from serine to H4PteGlun (tetrahydrofolate), yielding glycine and 5,10-methylenetetrahydrofolate. In plastids, SHMTs are thought to catalytically direct the hydroxymethyl moiety of serine into the metabolic network of H4PteGlun-bound one-carbon units. Genes encoding putative plastid SHMTs were found in the genomes of various plant species. SHMT activity was detected in chloroplasts in pea (Pisum sativum) and barley (Hordeum vulgare), suggesting that plastid SHMTs exist in all flowering plants.

Abstract:
Gaining an insight into the mechanism underlying antimicrobial-resistance development in Staphylococcus aureus is crucial for identifying effective antimicrobials. We isolated S. aureus sequence type 72 from a patient in whom the S. aureus infection was highly resistant to various antibiotics and lysostaphin, but no known resistance mechanisms could explain the mechanism of lysostaphin resistance. Genome-sequencing followed by subtractive and functional genomics revealed that serine hydroxymethyltransferase (glyA or shmT gene) plays a key role in lysostaphin resistance. Serine hydroxymethyltra

The cofactor specificity of serine hydroxymethyltransferase (SHMT) activities was tested in extracts of several methanogens using tetrahydromethanopterin (H4MPt) from Methanobacterium thermoautotrophicum Marburg, tetrahydrosarcinapterin (H4SPt) from Methanosarcina barkeri, and tetrahydrofolate (H4folate) as the potential C1 carrier. In Methanosphaera stadtmanae and Methanococcus thermolithotrophicus, the activities were H4MPt dependent. In Methanospirillum hungatei GP1, Methanosaeta concilii, Methanolobus tindarius, and Methanosarcina barkeri Fusaro, the activities were strictly H4folate depen

Abstract:
Breakdown of serine by the enzyme serine hydroxymethyltransferase (SHMT) produces glycine and one-carbon (1C) units. These serine catabolites provide important metabolic intermediates for the synthesis of nucleotides, as well as methyl groups for biosynthetic and regulatory methylation reactions. Recently, it has been shown that serine catabolism is required for efficient cellular respiration. Using CRISPR-Cas9 gene editing, we demonstrate that the mitochondrial SHMT enzyme, SHMT2, is essential to maintain cellular respiration, the main process through which mammalian cells acquire energy.

Abstract:
The anticancer actions of the biguanide metformin involve the functioning of the serine/glycine one-carbon metabolic network. We report that metformin directly and specifically targets the enzymatic activity of mitochondrial serine hydroxymethyltransferase (SHMT2). In vitro competitive binding assays with human recombinant SHMT1 and SHMT2 isoforms revealed that metformin preferentially inhibits SHMT2 activity by a non-catalytic mechanism. Computational docking coupled with molecular dynamics simulation predicted that metformin could occupy the cofactor pyridoxal-5′-phosphate (PLP) cavity and d

Abstract:
Serine hydroxymethyltransferase (SHMT) is one of the most important enzyme families in one-carbon metabolic pathway and photorespiration within plant cells. Recently studies reported the active roles of plant SHMTs in defending abiotic stresses. However, genome-scale analysis of SHMT in tomato is currently unknown. In this study, seven SHMT genes were identified in the tomato genome using a genome-wide search approach. In addition, their physicochemical properties, protein secondary structure, subcellular localization, gene structure, conserved motifs, phylogenetic and collinear relationships

Plasmodiumparasites, the causative agent of malaria, rely heavily onde novofolate biosynthesis, and the enzymes in this pathway have therefore been explored extensively for antimalarial development. Serine hydroxymethyltransferase (SHMT) fromPlasmodiumspp., an enzyme involved in folate recycling and dTMP synthesis, has been shown to catalyze the conversion of L- and D-serine to glycine (Gly) in a THF-dependent reaction, the mechanism of which is not yet fully understood.

Abstract:
The aim of the present work was to further determine how the T-protein of the glycine-cleavage system and serine hydroxy-methyltransferase (SHMT), two folate-dependent enzymes from pea leaf mitochondria, interact through a common pool of tetrahydrofolate polyglutamates (H4PteGlun). It was observed that the binding affinity of tetrahydrofolate polyglutamates for these proteins continuously increased with increasing number of glutamates up to six residues. It was also established that, once bound to the proteins, tetrahydrofolate, a very O2-sensitive molecule, was protected from oxidative degrad

The present thesis aims to dissect the moonlighting nucleic acid binding activity of human cytosolic serine hydroxymethyltransferase (SHMT1), a double-faced metabolic enzyme. Indeed, the work characterizes the interaction between SHMT1 and RNA molecules in vitro as well as in cell models, thus unraveling an unexpected complex mechanism in which the synergy among SHMT1, RNA and metabolites fine tunes the compartmentalization of serine metabolism in lung cancer cells. On the other hand, the study of the SHMT1-DNA complexes, presented herein, set the basis to hypothesize a nuclear function of the
