Identiy of brain alcohol dehydrogenase with liver alcohol dehydrogenase [PDF]
A method for obtaining electrophoretically homogeneous rat liver alcohol dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.1) at a specific activity of 2-2.5 μmol/min per mg of protein is presented. Anti-sera prepared against the purified enzyme inhibit alcohol dehydrogenase by up to 75% and cause precipitation of virtually all the enzyme.

Hepatic Deficiency of Augmenter of Liver Regeneration Exacerbates Alcohol-Induced Liver Injury and Promotes Fibrosis in Mice. [PDF]
Why only a subpopulation (about 15%) of humans develops liver cirrhosis due to alcohol is a critical as yet unanswered question. Liver-specific depletion of augmenter of liver regeneration (ALR) protein in mice causes robust steatosis and hepatocyte ...

Alcohol Dehydrogenase of a Novel Algae Fermentation Strain Meyerozyma guilliermondii [PDF]
The production of bioethanol from algae has attracted wide attention in the field of energy. A novel algae fermentation strain, Meyerozyma guilliermondii, can produce alginate mlyase and alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) at the same time.

Zinc-glutathione in Chinese Baijiu prevents alcohol-associated liver injury
Zinc depletion is associated with alcohol-associated liver injury. We tested the hypothesis that increasing zinc availability along with alcohol consumption prevents alcohol-associated liver injury.

Integrating Horizontal Gene Transfer and Common Descent to Depict Evolution and Contrast It with ‘‘Common Design [PDF]
Horizontal gene transfer (HGT) and common descent interact in space and time. Because events of HGT co-occur with phylogenetic evolution, it is difficult to depict evolutionary patterns graphically. Tree-like representations of life’s diversification are

Solution structure of a bacterial microcompartment targeting peptide and its application in the construction of an ethanol bioreactor [PDF]
Targeting of proteins to bacterial microcompartments (BMCs) is mediated by an 18-amino-acid peptide sequence. Herein, we report the solution structure of the N-terminal targeting peptide (P18) of PduP, the aldehyde dehydrogenase associated with the 1,2 ...

Novel essential role of ethanol oxidation genes at low temperature revealed by transcriptome analysis in the antarctic bacterium pseudomonas extremaustralis [PDF]
Temperature is one of the most important factors for bacterial growth and development. Cold environments are widely distributed on earth, and psychrotolerant and psychrophilic microorganisms have developed different adaptation strategies to cope with the
