Glycolate and 2-phosphoglycolate (PG) are 2-carbon monocarboxylic acids with ill-defined metabolic roles. Their concentrations have not yet been described in tissues apart from body fluids and erythrocytes. We describe the use of ion chromatography coupled with mass spectrometry (IC-MS) to
Hermann Bauwe et al.
Current opinion in plant biology, 15(3), 269-275 (2012-01-31)
Photorespiration is a Janus-headed metabolic process: it makes oxygenic photosynthesis possible by scavenging its major toxic by-product, 2-phosphoglycolate, but also leads to high losses of freshly assimilated CO(2) from most land plants. Photorespiration has been often classified as a wasteful
Iris N Serratos et al.

Electrostatic interactions have a central role in some biological processes, such as recognition of charged ligands by proteins. We characterized the binding energetics of yeast triosephosphate isomerase (TIM) with phosphorylated inhibitors 2-phosphoglycollate (2PG) and phosphoglycolohydroxamate (PGH). We determined the thermodynamic
