Triosephosphate isomerase (TPI) is best known as a glycolytic enzyme that interconverts the 3-carbon sugars dihydroxyacetone phosphate (DHAP) and glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate (G3P). TPI is an essential enzyme that is required for the catabolism of DHAP and a net yield of ATP from anaerobic glucose metabolism. Loss of TPI function results in the recessive disease TPI Deficiency (TPI Df). Recently, numerous lines of evidence suggest the TPI protein has other functions beyond glycolysis, a phenomenon known as moonlighting or gene sharing. Here we review the numerous functions ascribed to TPI, including recent findings of a nuclear role of TPI implicated in cancer pathogenesis and chemotherapy resistance.

We report the first implementation of ion mobility mass spectrometry combined with an ultra-high throughput sample introduction technology for high throughput screening (HTS). The system integrates differential ion mobility (DMS) with acoustic ejection mass spectrometry (AEMS), termed DAEMS, enabling the simultaneous quantitation of structural isomers that are the sub-strates and products of isomerase mediated reactions in intermediary metabolism. We demonstrate this potential by comparing DAEMS to a luminescence assay for the isoform of phosphoglycerate mutase (iPGM) distinctively present in pathogens offering an opportunity as a drug target for a variety of microbial and parasite borne diseases.

Epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) is a conserved cellular process critical for embryogenesis, wound healing, and cancer metastasis. During EMT, cells undergo large-scale metabolic reprogramming that supports multiple functional phenotypes including migration, invasion, survival, chemo-resistance and stemness. However, the extent of metabolic network rewiring during EMT is unclear.

Virus-derived small interfering RNAs (vsiRNAs) play an important role in viral infection by regulating the expression of host genes. At present, research on the regulation of plant primary metabolic pathways by vsiRNAs is very limited. TvsiRNA24 derived from tobacco curly shoot virus (TbCSV) was amplified by reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction, and its target gene NbTPI (triosephosphate isomerase) was verified using reverse transcription quantitative polymerase chain reaction and GFP fluorescence observation.
