Characterization of the human omega-oxidation pathway for omega-hydroxy-very-long-chain fatty acids [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Very-long-chain fatty acids (VLCFAs) have long been known to be degraded exclusively in peroxisomes via beta-oxidation. A defect in peroxisomal beta-oxidation results in elevated levels of VLCFAs and is associated with the most frequent inherited ...

Erythrocytes as Carriers of Therapeutic Enzymes. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Therapeutic enzymes are administered for the treatment of a wide variety of diseases. They exert their effects through binding with a high affinity and specificity to disease-causing substrates to catalyze their conversion to a non-noxious product, to ...

Studies on the biosynthesis of cholesterol: XIV. the origin of prenoic acids from allyl Pyrophosphates in liver enzyme systems

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1961
Allyl pyrophosphates (3,3-dimethylallyl, geranyl, and farnesyl pyrophosphate), which are known intermediates in the biosynthesis of squalene from mevalonate, are also metabolized in the liver by an alternative pathway to acids.

Immobilization and stabilization of alcohol dehydrogenase on polyvinyl alcohol fibre

open access: yesBiotechnology Reports, 2018
A polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) fibrous carrier has been chemically modified for the immobilization of yeast alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) with an aim to increase its stability over a wide pH range, prolong its activity upon storage, and enhance its reusability.

Two highly divergent alcohol dehydrogenases of melon exhibit fruit ripening-specific expression and distinct biochemical characteristics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Alcohol dehydrogenases (ADH) participate in the biosynthetic pathway of aroma volatiles in fruit by interconverting aldehydes to alcohols and providing substrates for the formation of esters.
