Engineering a newly identified alcohol dehydrogenase from Sphingobium Sp. for efficient utilization of nicotinamide cofactors biomimetics [PDF]
Nicotinamide cofactor biomimetics (NCBs) serve as low-cost alternatives to the expensive NAD(P)+/NAD(P)H, holding significant potential for applications in oxidoreductases. In this study, an alcohol dehydrogenase (SpADH2) from Sphingobium sp.

NAD(P)<sup>+</sup>-dependent alcohol oxidoreductases oxidize 7-hydroxycannabidiol to a reactive formyl metabolite. [PDF]
Cannabidiol (CBD) undergoes oxidation to 7-hydroxy-CBD in the liver via cytochrome P450 enzymes. 7-Hydroxy-CBD can be further oxidized to 7-carboxy-CBD, the principal circulating metabolite in humans. An aldehyde intermediate, 7-formyl-CBD, is hypothesized to be the precursor of 7-carboxy-CBD; however, the formation of 7-formyl-CBD and the enzymes ...

Generation of Oxidoreductases with Dual Alcohol Dehydrogenase and Amine Dehydrogenase Activity [PDF]
AbstractThe l‐lysine‐ϵ‐dehydrogenase (LysEDH) from Geobacillus stearothermophilus naturally catalyzes the oxidative deamination of the ϵ‐amino group of l‐lysine. We previously engineered this enzyme to create amine dehydrogenase (AmDH) variants that possess a new hydrophobic cavity in their active site such that aromatic ketones can bind and be ...

Display of Bombyx mori alcohol dehydrogenases on the Bacillus subtilis spore surface to enhance enzymatic activity under adverse conditions. [PDF]
Alcohol dehydrogenases (ADHs) are oxidoreductases catalyzing the reversible oxidation of alcohols to corresponding aldehydes or ketones accompanied by nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) or nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADP) as ...

Alcohol abuse is associated with enhanced pulmonary and systemic xanthine oxidoreductase activity [PDF]
Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is a common and devastating disorder. Alcohol use disorders (AUDs) increase ARDS risk and worsen outcomes through mechanisms that may include enhancement of pulmonary oxidative stress. Alcohol consumption increases activity of the enzyme xanthine oxidoreductase (XOR) that contributes to production of both ...

Steroid Oxidoreductase Activity of Alcohol Dehydrogenases from Horse, Rat, and Human Liver. [PDF]
Alcohol dehydrogenase from horse (isoenzyme SS and ES, but not EE), rat and human liver were found to catalyze the NAD-dependent oxidation of 3beta-hydroxy groups in 5alpha- and 5beta-steroids of the C19, C21, and C24 series. The enzymes from horse and rat liver were more active on 5beta-than on 5alpha-steroids. This difference was most marked with the
