ATP
- Increased host ATP efflux and its conversion to extracellular adenosine is crucial for establishing Leishmania infection
Highlighted Article: Leishmania effluxes host ATP generated from increased glycolysis, which is converted into extracellular adenosine to create an anti-inflammatory milieu within infected cells via receptor-mediated signalling.
- Reliable imaging of ATP in living budding and fission yeast
Highlighted Article: Budding and fission yeast strains stably expressing the ATP biosensor QUEEN, allow reliable observation of ATP dynamics with high spatiotemporal resolution in living eukaryotic cells.
- Import of extracellular ATP in yeast and man modulates AMPK and TORC1 signalling
Summary: ATP and AMP import from external environments modifies growth control in yeast and man.
