Tungstoenzymes: Occurrence, Catalytic Diversity and Cofactor Synthesis
Inorganics, 2020 Tungsten is the heaviest element used in biological systems. It occurs in the active sites of several bacterial or archaeal enzymes and is ligated to an organic cofactor (metallopterin or metal binding pterin; MPT) which is referred to as tungsten ...

Covalent immobilization of Candida methylica formate dehydrogenase on short spacer arm aldehyde group containing supports [PDF]
, 2016 Formate dehydrogenases are promising enzymes for in situ regeneration of reduced form of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide. However, the low operational stability of free form of formate dehydrogenases restricts their industrial uses.

The History of Desulfovibrio gigas Aldehyde Oxidoreductase—A Personal View
Molecules, 2023 A story going back almost 40 years is presented in this manuscript. This is a different and more challenging way of reporting my research and I hope it will be useful to and target a wide-ranging audience. When preparing the manuscript and collecting references on the subject of this paper—aldehyde oxidoreductase from Desulfovibrio gigas—I felt like I ...

Kinetic behavior of Desulfovibrio gigas aldehyde oxidoreductase encapsulated in reverse micelles [PDF]
Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications, 2003 We report the kinetic behavior of the enzyme aldehyde oxidoreductase (AOR) from the sulfate reducing bacterium Desulfovibrio gigas (Dg) encapsulated in reverse micelles of sodium bis-(2-ethylhexyl) sulfosuccinate in isooctane using benzaldehyde, octaldehyde, and decylaldehyde as substrates.

Reduction of Carboxylic Acids by Nocardia Aldehyde Oxidoreductase Requires a Phosphopantetheinylated Enzyme [PDF]
Journal of Biological Chemistry, 2007 Aldehyde oxidoreductase (carboxylic acid reductase (Car)) catalyzes the magnesium-, ATP-, and NADPH-dependent reduction of carboxylic acids to their corresponding aldehydes. Heterologous expression of the car gene in Escherichia coli afforded purified recombinant enzyme with a specific activity nearly 50-fold lower than that of purified native Nocardia
