Regulation of energy homeostasis by Palmitoyl CoA

点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

The body’s normal function depends upon maintaining energy balance matching demand and supply. The body senses its energy status by monitoring metabolite concentrations. I have discovered a metabolite that controls multiple enzymes critical for energy homeostasis and appetite in the body that may provide new approaches to tackle obesity related disease. I have found the metabolite-binding pocket in many proteins and it may represent a major new regulatory network.
