PanM, an Acetyl-Coenzyme A Sensor Required for Maturation of
mBio, 2012 Coenzyme A (CoA) is essential for cellular chemistry in all forms of life. The pantothenate moiety of CoA is generated from the condensation of pantoate and β-alanine.

Structural and biophysical analysis of important biomedical enzymes and nano-architectures [PDF]
, 2008 Dopa decarboxylase (DDC) is an important enzyme in the catecholamine biosynthesis pathways. Catecholamines, e.g., dopamine, serotonin, etc. often are the major neuromodulators or neurotransmitters.

“Hard Core” Acetyl Coenzyme‐A Carboxylase
The FASEB Journal, 2015 Diseases involving unregulated cell reproduction, (i.e. cancer) can be inhibited through acetyl coenzyme‐A carboxylase (ACC) manipulation, preventing the lipid production that is imperative for cell survival. ACC catalyzes the first step in the fatty acid biosynthesis. ACC contains two dimers, biotin carboxylase (BC) and carboxyltransferase (CT), and a

Food Safety and Health, EarlyView.Figure Schematic showing the improvement of almond peptides on learning and memory impairment induced by scopolamine in mice. Almond peptides (APs) could improve the learning and memory in scopolamine‐induced mice by maintaining cholinergic system homeostasis and regulating Nrf2/Keap1 signaling pathway, via activating the Nrf2 transcription factor and ...

N6‐Methyladenosine (m6A) in Liver Disease: Pathogenic Mechanisms and Therapeutic Potential
iNew Medicine, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Accumulating evidence highlights the critical role of epigenetic modifications, particularly N6‐methyladenosine (m6A), in liver disease. As the most abundant RNA modification in eukaryotic cells, m6A is dynamically regulated by multicomponent m6A methyltransferases (e.g., METTL3 and METTL14), demethylases (FTO and ALKBH5), and m6A‐binding ...

CydDC-mediated reductant export in Escherichia coli controls the transcriptional wiring of energy metabolism and combats nitrosative stress [PDF]
, 2016 The glutathione/cysteine exporter CydDC maintains redox balance in Escherichia coli. A cydD mutant strain was used to probe the influence of CydDC upon reduced thiol export, gene expression, metabolic perturbations, intracellular pH homeostasis, and ...
