... of the enzymes hexokinase and trehalase showed the predicted differences. Overall, our study indicates that there should be correlated evolution among physiological phenotypes at multiple levels of organization and morphological traits associated with flight. * Author for correspondence ( cdarveau...

...John E. Wilson SUMMARY The first step in metabolism of glucose (Glc) is usually phosphorylation,catalyzed by hexokinase. However, the Glc-6-P produced can then enter one or more of several alternative pathways. Selective expression of isozymic forms of hexokinase, differing in catalytic...

...Kenneth J. Rodnick; John R. Bailey; Jenny L. West; Alison Rideout; William R. Driedzic ABSTRACT We investigated the effects of anoxia and contractile activity on glucose uptake and the intracellular location of hexokinase in cardiac muscle of the American eel Anguilla rostrata . Uptake of 2...
