Abstract
On June 26-27, 2012, one of us (BBB) made a video based on an interview conducted with Andrew A. Benson, Professor Emeritus, Scripps Institution of Oceanography, University of California, San Diego, CA, USA. The video was first shown in a seminar presented by BBB on July 27, 2012 at the Calvin Laboratory, University of California, Berkeley, to mark the departure of the Energy Biosciences Institute to a new building. Here we record the conversation taking place during the interview. The Brancraft Library on the Berkeley campus will house the video's transcript in its oral histories collection, and the video will be housed in its motion picture collection. The video and the transcript have also been posted on You Tube (http://youtu.be/GfQQJ2vR_xE).

Abstract
We established a separation method for the optical isomers of glyceric acid in urine by modifying the derivatization steps of the procedure used for the screening and diagnosis. The trimethylsilyl derivatization step in the mass screening procedure was replaced by O-acetyl-(+)-2-butylation, and the samples were analyzed under equivalent GC/MS conditions by capillary gas chromatography on a DB-5MS column. This method can be applied to cases that show a high urinary concentration of glyceric acid to obtain a differential diagnosis of primary hyperoxaluria type II and d-glyceric aciduria easily. l-Glyceric acid was also isolated from the urine of healthy controls as one of the main peaks.

Abstract
We describe here the implementation of the statistical total correlation spectroscopy (STOCSY) analysis method for aiding the identification of potential biomarker molecules in metabonomic studies based on NMR spectroscopic data. STOCSY takes advantage of the multicollinearity of the intensity variables in a set of spectra (in this case 1H NMR spectra) to generate a pseudo-two-dimensional NMR spectrum that displays the correlation among the intensities of the various peaks across the whole sample. This method is not limited to the usual connectivities that are deducible from more standard two-dimensional NMR spectroscopic methods, such as TOCSY. Moreover, two or more molecules involved in the same pathway can also present high intermolecular correlations because of biological covariance or can even be anticorrelated. This combination of STOCSY with supervised pattern recognition and particularly orthogonal projection on latent structure-discriminant analysis (O-PLS-DA) offers a new powerful framework for analysis of metabonomic data. In a first step O-PLS-DA extracts the part of NMR spectra related to discrimination. This information is then cross-combined with the STOCSY results to help identify the molecules responsible for the metabolic variation. To illustrate the applicability of the method, it has been applied to 1H NMR spectra of urine from a metabonomic study of a model of insulin resistance based on the administration of a carbohydrate diet to three different mice strains (C57BL/6Oxjr, BALB/cOxjr, and 129S6/SvEvOxjr) in which a series of metabolites of biological importance can be conclusively assigned and identified by use of the STOCSY approach.

Abstract
Acclimation of 25 degrees C-grown Arabidopsis thaliana at 5 degrees C resulted in a marked increase of leaf respiration in darkness (Rd) measured at 5 degrees C. Rd was particularly high in leaves developed at 5 degrees C. Leaf respiration (non-photorespiratory intracellular decarboxylation) in the light (Rl) also increased during cold acclimation, but less so than did Rd. The ratio Rd/Pt (Pt - true photosynthesis) was higher in more acclimated or cold-developed leaves, while the ratio Rl/Pt remained unchanged. In cold-acclimated leaves, Rl did not correlate with 3-phosphoglycerate and pyruvate nor with hexose phosphate pools in the cytosol. Rl in A. thaliana leaves was probably not limited by the substrate during cold acclimation. Under the conditions tested, Rd was more sensitive to low temperature stress than Rl.

Abstract
Polyglyceric acid was synthesized by thermal condensation of glyceric acid at 80 degrees in the presence and absence of two mole percent of sulfuric acid catalyst. The acid catalyst accelerated the polymerization over 100-fold and made possible the synthesis of insoluble polymers of both L- and DL-glyceric acid by heating for less than 1 day. Racemization of L-glyceric acid yielded less than 1% D-glyceric acid in condensations carried out at 80 degrees C with catalyst for 1 day and without catalyst for 12 days. The condensation of L-glyceric acid yielded an insoluble polymer much more readily than condensation of DL-glyceric acid. Studies of the hydrolysis of poly-DL-glyceric acid revealed that it was considerably more stable under mild acidic conditions compared to neutral pH. The relationship of this study to the origin of life is discussed.

Abstract
Numerous individual enzymes participate in a given synthetic or degradative pathway in which the product of one reaction becomes the substrate for the subsequent enzyme. This raises the question of whether the product of one 'soluble' enzyme diffuses freely through the available cell volume, where it accidentally collides with the subsequent 'soluble' enzyme. Alternatively, enzymes acting in a given pathway may be organized in ordered structures, metabolons. Certain glycolytic enzymes have been shown to co-localize with the cytoskeleton in mammalian cells. We deleted genes coding for proteins associated with the cytoskeleton of Saccharomyces cerevisiae: TPM1 coding for tropomyosin, SAC6 for fimbrin and CIN1 for a microtubule-associated protein. Single deletions or deletions of two such genes had no effect on the specific activities of glycolytic enzymes, or on the rates of glucose consumption and ethanol production. However, the concentrations of glycolytic metabolites during a switch from a gluconeogenic mode of metabolism, growth on an ethanol medium, to glycolysis after glucose addition showed transient deviations from the normal change in metabolite concentrations, as observed in wild type cells. However, all metabolites in mutant strains reached wild-type levels within 2-4 h after the shift. Only ATP levels remained low in all but the tmp1-Delta-sac6-Delta double mutant strains. These observations can be interpreted to mean that metabolic reorganization from a gluconeogenic to a glycolytic metabolism is facilitated by an intact cytoskeleton in yeast.

Abstract
The ability of D-glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH) catalyzing the reaction of 1,3-diphosphoglycerate synthesis in human erythrocytes to form complexes with enzymes which use this metabolite as substrate (3-phosphoglycerate kinase (3-PGK) or 2,3-diphosphoglycerate mutase (2,3-DPGM)) was studied. It was found that highly active 2,3-DPGM can be extracted from human erythrocyte hemolysates in a complex with GAPDH adsorbed on Sepharose-bound anti-GAPDH antibodies at pH 6.5, the molar ratio being one 2,3-GPGM subunit per subunit of GAPDH. No complexation was, however, detected at pH 8.0. The opposite was true for the interaction between GAPDH and 3-PGK, which could be observed at pH 8.0. In experiments carried out at pH 7.4, both GAPDH x 2,3-DPGM and GAPGH x 3-PGK complexes were detected. The Kd values of the complexes determined with purified enzyme preparations were in the range 2.40-2.48 microM for both the GAPDH x 2,3-DPGM and GAPGH x 3-PGK enzyme pairs, when titrations of GAPDH covalently bound to CNBr-activated Sepharose were performed by the soluble 2,3-DPGM or 3-PGK. If, however, GAPDH adsorbed on the specific antibodies covalently bound to Sepharose was used in the titration experiments, the Kd for the GAPDH x 2,3-DPGM complex was found to be 0.54 microM, and the Kd for the GAPDH x 3-PGK complex was 0.49 microM. The concentration of 2,3-diphosphoglycerate determined after 1 h of incubation of erythrocytes in the presence of glucose was found to increase 1.5-fold if the incubation was carried out at pH 6.5, but did not change upon incubation at pH 8.0. On the other hand, the concentration of 3-phosphoglycerate after incubation at pH 8.0 was twice as large as that found after incubation at pH 6.5. The results are interpreted on the hypothesis that specific protein-protein interactions between GAPDH and 2,3-DPGM or between GAPDH and 3-PGK may play a role in determining the fate of 1,3-diphosphoglycerate produced in the GAPDH-catalyzed reaction.

Abstract
Continuous sampling of microorganisms from a controlled bioreactor with rapid inactivation of metabolism and extraction of metabolites using precooled -40 degrees C perchloric acid solution (35%) was achieved with a sampling tube, thus fixing fast dynamic reactions at a certain position in the tube. After sampling was stopped (200 s) the tube was frozen at -80 degrees C and divided into identical parts and the extracted metabolites were analyzed enzymatically. A high resolution in time was achieved due to the axial dispersion of the metabolites in the sampling tube: The events of 1 s in the cells of the reactor were represented by 15 parts of the sampling tube. Axial dispersion was determined quantitatively with tracer measurements. The performance of the sampling tube device was evaluated with dynamic investigations on glucose-metabolism of Zymomonas mobilis. The dynamics of intracellular glucose 6-phosphate, glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate, and 3-phosphoglycerate concentrations were monitored after adding a glucose pulse to a glucose-limited steady-state culture.

Abstract
We describe a liquid chromatographic technique to determine L-glycerate in body fluids. The method is based on the derivatisation of the L-glycerate by incubation with lactate dehydrogenase and nicotinamide-adenine dinucleotide in the presence of phenylhydrazine. Oxidation of L-glycerate forms beta-hydroxypyruvate which is converted in turn into the related phenylhydrazone. The UV-absorbing derivative is determined using reversed-phase high performance liquid chromatography. The sensitivity was 5 mumol/l and 50 microliters of sample were required. The imprecision relative standard deviation was 4.5% and the recovery was 96.5 +/- 6.8% for L-glycerate in plasma. L-Glycerate concentrations in urine and plasma were less than 5 mumol/l in both normal individuals and patients with glycolic aciduria. In a patient with systemic oxalosis and normal plasma glycolate, plasma L-glyceric acid was 887 mumol/l.

Abstract
Perfusion with [8-14C]adenosine demonstrated the likely existence in rat liver of oligophosphoglyceroyl-ATP (OPG-ATP). Purification followed by assay with a new specific 3' phosphodiesterase confirmed this. The quantities present were 5-10-fold those found previously and comparable to total soluble nucleotides. OPG-ATP was also purified from the mitochondrial fraction, shown to co-distribute with succinate dehydrogenase and can be co-purified with an enzyme confined to intermembrane space.

Abstract
A procedure for the determination of picomole amounts of glycerate 3-phosphate, glycerate 2-phosphate, and phosphoenol pyruvate is described. These metabolites were utilized by the glycolytic enzymes phosphoglycerate mutase, enolase, and pyruvate kinase to generate ATP which was determined by firefly luciferase/luciferin luminescence. The phosphoglycerate mutase used was of the glycerate 2,3-bisphosphate-independent type and was prepared from wheat germ. Stoichiometric conversion of glycerate 3-P, ranging in amount from 9 to 275 pmol, occurred after 25 min preincubation and required a narrow range of added mutase. The application of the procedure for determining these metabolites in suspensions of plant protoplasts is described.

Abstract
The structure of a new glycolipid isolated from the acetone-soluble lipids of the strain of Nocardia caviae has been determined. The water-soluble moiety contains one mole of D-glucose and one mole of D(-)-glyceric acid; the lipid moiety is a mixture of myristic, palmitic and stearic acids with small amounts of oleic acid. The structure of the deacylated compound was determined by periodate oxidation, methylation and enzymatic degradation. The localization of fatty acid residues at 2',3' on glucose was established by methylation and mass spectrometry. The structure was confirmed by 13C NMR spectrometry of the glycolipid and of the deacylated compound. This glycolipid is a 2'.3'-di-O-acyl-alpha-D-glucopyranosyl-(1 leads to 2)-D-(-)-glyceric acid.

Abstract
In order to study the structure of the methylglucose-containing polysaccharide (MGP) of Mycobacterium smegmatis by NMR spectroscopy, we have prepared the model compound O-alpha-D-glucopyranosyl-(1 leads to 2)-D-glyceric acid. This compound, which represents the aglycon-containing terminus of MGP, was made from leucorse [O-alpha-D-glucopyranosyl-(1 leads to 5)-D-fructopyranose] by successive treatment with sodium borohydride, lead tetraacetate, and hypobromite. The structure of O-alpha-D-glucopyranosy.-(1 leads to 2)-D-glyceric acid was confirmed by chemical and enzymic methods. 13C and 1H NMR spectra of this compound, together with spectra of several disaccharides, were obtained for future reference in the polysaccharide study. The nine resonances in the 13C spectrum were assigned by comparison with the spectrum of methyl alpha-D-glucopyranoside. Analysis of the 1H NMR spectrum showed that the two methylene protons on C-3 of the glycerate moiety were less equivalent in the sodium salt than in the acid. This may be attributable to hydrogen bonding between the carboxylate and the hydrogen atom of the glycerate 3-hydroxyl group.

Abstract
A glycolipid was found in a strain of Nocardia caviae. It consists of glucose, myristic, palmitic and stearic acids and a polyhydroxylated acid. The structure of this hydroxyacid was demonstrated by the identification of the product glycerol after LiA1H4 reduction of the glycolipid methyl ester and subsequent hydrolysis, by comparison of the infrared spectra of the hydroxyacid and glyceric acid, by gas chromatography of acetylated methyl and ethyl esters of the polyhydroxylated acid and of standard glyceric acid and by mass spectrometry of the diacetylated methyl ester. The hydroxyacid from the glycolipid is D(-)glyceric acid, a compound rarely found amongst natural products.

Abstract
The "phosphoryl-enzyme" prepared from phosphoglycerate kinase and adenosine 5'-triphosphate in the presence of an adenosine 5'-diphosphate trap is shown to contain stoichiometric amounts of 3-phosphoglycerate. This "phosphoryl-enzyme" is chemically competent, but is probably just a tight complex between 1,3-bisphosphoglycerate and the enzyme. The two partial exchange reactions (between adenosine 5'-diphosphate, and adenosine 5'-triphosphate, and between 3-phosphoglycerate and 1,3-bisphosphoglycerate) can both be observed, but their rates are very much slower than the rate of overall catalysis. No substrate analogue was found that accelerated the partial exchange reactions. Catalysis of each of the two exchange reactions and of the kinase reaction coincides after isoelectric focusing of purified enzyme, but the amount of cosubstrate necessary to cause the observed partial exchange rates is so small that these reactions may well be artifactual. The balance of evidence does not support a ping-pong pathway via phosphoryl-enzyme, and the reaction may be a sequential one in which the phosphoryl group is transferred between substrates in a ternary complex. The results point to the dangers in the interpretation of experiments where very small amounts of contaminating cosubstrate can lead to large kinetic effects, and to the possibility of mistaken deductions about the identity of reaction intermediates.

Abstract
We have developed a spectrophotometric procedure, based on a combination of established methods, for the quantitative determination of aklyl and alk-1-enyl (plasmalogens) ether-linked glycerolipids. It depends upon the release of alkylglycerols and alk-1-enylglycerols from phospholipids by phosphlipase C (Bacillus cereus) followed by saponification or by Vitride reduction the phospholipids; aldehydes are subsequently formed and measured colorimetrically after reacting them with a fuchsin reagent. The total alkyl and alk-1-enyl content of glycerolipids is determined oxidation of the sample withperiodate to form aldehydes and alkylglycolic aldehydes. The O-alk-1-enyl lipid content is determined on a separate sample by measuring the aldehydes produced after acid hydrolysis. The quantity of O-alkyl lipids is calculated from the difference between the values obtained for the total ether-lipid content and that of the O-alk-1enyl lipid content. Alternately, direct determination of alk-1-enylglycerols and alkylglycerols can be made if these hydrolytic products are first separated by thin-layer chromatography.
