Study ID | ST002980 |
Study Title | Water soluble metabolomics in mice upon loss of SHMT |
Study Summary | The enzyme SHMT interconverts the amino acids serine and glycine as part of the folate cycle. To explore the role of SHMT in amino acid homeostasis, Mice were treated with a small molecule inhibitor of SHMT (SHIN2) or had Shmt2 genetically knocked-out in a liver specific manner. Serum and liver samples were collected and underwent LC-MS metabolomics analysis. |

Project Title: | Glycine homeostasis requires reverse SHMT flux |
Project Type: | LCMS metabolomics |
Project Summary: | The folate-dependent enzyme serine hydroxymethyltransferase (SHMT) reversibly converts serine into glycine and a tetrahydrofolate-bound one-carbon unit. Such one-carbon unit production plays a critical role in development, the immune system, and cancer. Using rodent models, here we show that the whole-body SHMT flux acts to net consume rather than produce glycine. Pharmacological inhibition of whole-body SHMT1/2 and genetic knockout of liver SHMT2 elevated circulating glycine levels up to eight-fold. Stable isotope tracing revealed that the liver converts glycine to serine, which is then converted by serine dehydratase into pyruvate and burned in the tricarboxylic acid cycle. In response to diets deficient in serine and glycine, de novo biosynthetic flux was unaltered but SHMT2- and serine dehydratase-mediated catabolic flux was lower. Thus, glucose-derived serine synthesis does not respond to systemic demand. Instead, circulating serine and glycine homeostasis is maintained through variable consumption, with liver SHMT2 a major glycine-consuming enzyme. |
