Rivera C, Watne R, Brown Z, Mitchell S, Wommack A, Vaughan R
Amino Acids . 2022 Dec; 55(2):275-286. PMID: 36547760
Those with insulin resistance often display increased circulating branched-chain amino acids (BCAA), which has been largely attributable to reduced BCAA catabolic capacity. Metabolic stimuli such as exercise activates AMP-activated kinase...

Rivera C, Kamer M, Rivera M, Watne R, Macgowan T, Wommack A, et al.
Mol Cell Endocrinol . 2022 Oct; 559:111800. PMID: 36270542
Purpose: Type 2 diabetes is characterized by reduced insulin sensitivity which correlates with increased circulating BCAA. These experiments investigated the effects of insulin resistance with and without excess BCAA on...

Krone M, Rivera C, Rivera M, Watne R, Lemonds S, Wommack A, et al.
Amino Acids . 2022 Feb; 54(3):455-468. PMID: 35112170
Glutamine is an amino acid previously linked with improved skeletal muscle metabolism and insulin signaling, however, past observations often use cell culture models with only supraphysiological concentrations. Additionally, past reports...

Moyer T, Purvis A, Wommack A, Hicks L
BMC Microbiol . 2021 Apr; 21(1):110. PMID: 33845758
Background: Plant defensins are a broadly distributed family of antimicrobial peptides which have been primarily studied for agriculturally relevant antifungal activity. Recent studies have probed defensins against Gram-negative bacteria revealing...

Hughes N, Connors M, Grace M, Lila M, Willans B, Wommack A
Plant Sci . 2021 Jan; 303:110793. PMID: 33487366
Over 500 unique anthocyanins have been described to date, which vary in color, antioxidant, light-attenuating, and antimicrobial properties. Identification of anthocyanin chemical structure may therefore serve as an important clue...

Iannetta A, Rogers H, Al-Mohanna T, OBrien J, Wommack A, Popescu S, et al.
Plant J . 2021 Jan; 106(2):336-350. PMID: 33481299
Protein homeostasis (proteostasis) is crucial for proper cellular function, including the production of peptides with biological functions through controlled proteolysis. Proteostasis has roles in maintenance of cellular functions and plant...

Moyer T, Heil L, Kirkpatrick C, Goldfarb D, LeFever W, Parsley N, et al.
J Nat Prod . 2019 Sep; 82(10):2744-2753. PMID: 31557021
Traditional medicinal plants are a rich source of antimicrobials; however, the bioactive peptide constituents of most ethnobotanical species remain largely unexplored. Herein, PepSAVI-MS, a mass spectrometry-based peptidomics pipeline, was implemented...

Bruggeman B, Storo K, Fair H, Wommack A, Carriker C, Smoliga J
PLoS One . 2019 May; 14(4):e0215815. PMID: 31039164
Background: Glutathione is an endogenous antioxidant found in oxidized (GSSG) and reduced (GSH) forms. Glutathione depletion is indicative of oxidative stress and occurs in various pathological conditions and following extreme...

Shabab M, Arnold M, Penterman J, Wommack A, Bocker H, Price P, et al.
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A . 2016 Aug; 113(36):10157-62. PMID: 27551097
Interactions of rhizobia with legumes establish the chronic intracellular infection that underlies symbiosis. Within nodules of inverted repeat-lacking clade (IRLC) legumes, rhizobia differentiate into nitrogen-fixing bacteroids. This terminal differentiation is...

Nakashige T, Stephan J, Cunden L, Brophy M, Wommack A, Keegan B, et al.
J Am Chem Soc . 2016 Aug; 138(37):12243-51. PMID: 27541598
Human calprotectin (CP, S100A8/S100A9 oligomer, MRP-8/MRP-14 oligomer) is an abundant host-defense protein that is involved in the metal-withholding innate immune response. CP coordinates a variety of divalent first-row transition metal...
