Structural and Sequence Comparisons of Quinone Oxidoreductase, ζ-Crystallin, and Glucose and Alcohol Dehydrogenases

open access: closedArchives of Biochemistry and Biophysics, 1996
Quinone oxidoreductase, zeta-crystallin, glucose dehydrogenase, and alcohol dehydrogenase belong to a superfamily of medium-chain dehydrogenase/reductases.

Regulation of enzyme activity of alcohol dehydrogenase through its interactions with pyruvate-ferredoxin oxidoreductase in Thermoanaerobacter tengcongensis

open access: closedBiochemical and Biophysical Research Communications, 2011
Alcohol dehydrogenases (ADHs) from thermophilic microorganisms are interesting enzymes that have their potential applications in biotechnology and potentially provide insight into the mechanisms of action of thermo-tolerant proteins. The molecular mechanisms of ADHs under thermal stress in vivo have yet to be explored.

Alcohol: NAD Oxidoreductase (E. C. 1.1.1.1.) from Peas

open access: closedJournal of Food Science, 1968
SUMMARY– The substrate specificity of the enzyme alcohol: NAD oxidoreductase from seeds and pods of the pea plant (Pisum sutivum) was investigated. The enzyme catalyzes the oxidation of primary aliphatic alcohols especially 2-alken-1-01s e.g., trans-2 ...

Cytosolic NAD(P)H:(Quinone‐acceptor)oxidoreductase in human normal and tumor tissue: Effects of cigarette smoking and alcohol

open access: closedInternational Journal of Cancer, 1990
AbstractNAD(P)H:(quinone‐acceptor)oxidoreductase (QAO), previously known as DT‐diaphorase, catalyzes the reduction of qui‐nones to hydroquinones. Enhanced activity of the enzyme has been suggested to protect cells against the cellular toxicity and carcinogenicity of quinones, but may activate some cyto‐toxic anti‐tumor quinones. Cytosolic levels of QAO,

New kinetic and thermodynamic approach of one-pot synthesis of chiral alcohol by oxidoreductase from Candida parapsilosis

open access: closedProcess Biochemistry, 2010
Abstract The stereoinversion process involving two sequential stereoselective oxidation and reduction reactions by oxidoreductases was a typical and important one-pot method for chiral secondary alcohol synthesis which has great potential for industrial application.
