[HTML][HTML] Thioredoxin-interacting protein (Txnip) gene expression: sensing oxidative phosphorylation status and glycolytic rate
Thioredoxin-interacting protein (Txnip) has important functions in regulating cellular
metabolism including glucose utilization; the expression of the Txnip gene is sensitive to the
availability of glucose and other fuels. Here, we show that Txnip expression is down-
regulated at the transcriptional level by diverse inhibitors of mitochondrial oxidative
phosphorylation (OXPHOS). The effect of these OXPHOS inhibitors is mediated by earlier
identified carbohydrate-response elements (ChoREs) on the Txnip promoter and the ChoRE …
