Heme Regulates Exocrine Peptidase Precursor Genes in Zebrafish [PDF]
We previously determined that yquem harbors a mutation in the gene encoding uroporphyrinogen decarboxylase (UROD), the fifth enzyme in heme biosynthesis, and established zebrafish yquem (yqetp61) as a vertebrate model for human hepatoery-thropoietic ...

X-linked sideroblastic anemia (XLSA) is caused by mutations in the erythroid-specific 5-aminolevulinic acid synthase (ALAS2) gene. Hemizygous males have microcytic anemia and iron overload. A 38-year-old male presented with this phenotype (hemoglobin [Hb]

Molecular defects of erythroid 5-aminolevulinate synthase in X-linked sideroblastic anemia
The erythroid-specific isozyme of 5-aminolevulinate synthase (ALAS2), the first and ratelimiting enzyme of heme biosynthesis, is expressed concomitantly with the differentiation and maturation of the erythroid cell in order to accommodate generation of ...

Positional cloning of the zebrafish sauternes gene: A model for congenital sideroblastic anaemia
Many human anaemias are caused by defects in haemoglobin synthesis. The zebrafish mutant sauternes (sau) has a microcytic, hypochromic anaemia, suggesting that haemoglobin production is perturbed.

Despite implementation of the Athlete Biological Passport 10 years ago, blood doping remains difficult to detect. Thus, there is a need for new biomarkers to increase the sensitivity of the adaptive model.

Aplastic anemia (AA) is a bone marrow failure syndrome characterized by impaired hematopoiesis and a dysfunctional marrow microenvironment. Bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cell (BMSC)-derived exosomes play a crucial role in intercellular ...

Regulation of erythroid 5-aminolevulinate synthase expression during erythropoiesis
Erythroid tissue is the major site of heme production in the body. The synthesis of heme and globin chains is coordinated at both the transcriptional and post-transcriptional levels to ensure that virtually no free heme or globin protein accumulates. The

5-Aminolaevulinic acid is the first precursor of haem biosynthesis and is formed by the condensation between glycine and succinyl-CoA in a reaction catalysed by 5-aminolaevulinic acid synthase (ALAS).
