Humans have taken advantage of the metabolism in a tiny fungus called yeast to create beer and wine from grains and fruits. What are the biological mechanisms behind this alcohol production?

Researchers discovered that targeting S. pyogenes metabolism with a pyruvate dehydrogenase inhibitor reduces tissue damage ...

A new study reveals a novel approach to mitigating tissue damage caused by Streptococcus pyogenes, the flesh-eating bacterium responsible for severe infections such as necrotizing fasciitis. The ...

This stage does not require oxygen. If oxygen is available to the cell then the pyruvate molecules can be further broken down in stage two to release more energy and produce a greater quantity of ATP.

They synthesize ATP from pyruvate breakdown via simple fermentations that typically involve the production of molecular hydrogen as a major metabolic end product. These mitochondria are called ...
