The Binding of Plasmodium falciparum Adhesins and Erythrocyte Invasion Proteins to Aldolase Is Enhanced by Phosphorylation.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
Aldolase has been implicated as a protein coupling the actomyosin motor and cell surface adhesins involved in motility and host cell invasion in the human malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum. It binds to the cytoplasmic domain (CTD) of type 1 membrane

Promiscuity‐Guided Enzyme Evolution via Substrate Multiplexed Screening

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Through historical context and recent examples, this Minireview summarizes the strengths, limitations, and practical considerations for the implementation of substrate multiplexed screening (SUMS) in enzyme evolution. ABSTRACT An enzyme's ability to react with diverse substrates while maintaining high yield and selectivity, termed “substrate ...

A New Synthetic Pathway for the Bioproduction of Glycolic Acid From Lignocellulosic Sugars Aimed at Maximal Carbon Conservation

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2019
Glycolic acid is a two-carbon α-hydroxy acid with many applications in industrial sectors including packaging, fine chemistry, cosmetics, and pharmaceutics. Currently, glycolic acid is chemically manufactured from fossil resources.

Aldolase B knockdown prevents high glucose-induced methylglyoxal overproduction and cellular dysfunction in endothelial cells. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
We used cultured endothelial cells as a model to examine whether up-regulation of aldolase B and enhanced methylglyoxal (MG) formation play an important role in high glucose-induced overproduction of advanced glycosylation endproducts (AGEs), oxidative ...

Aldolase

open access: yesClinical Chemistry, 1969
Abstract Two commercial kits for the measurement of serum aldolase activity by a spectrophotometric (UV) method were evaluated. Neither was satisfactory in their present forms, since aldolase activity was not rate-limiting in one, and side reactions utilizing NADH occurred in the other.

A Revised Model for Muscarine Biosynthesis Involving Lysine Trimethylation

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
The fatal mushroom toxin l‐(+)‐muscarine is one of the most prominent natural products. We elucidated its biosynthetic origin in the sweating mushroom Collybia rivulosa based on incorporation of stable isotope‐labeled compounds and extensive mass spectrometric analyses.

A simple and fast method to exclude high Plasmodium falciparum parasitaemia in travellers with imported malaria

open access: yesMalaria Journal, 2011
Background Counts of malaria parasites in peripheral blood are important to assess severity of Plasmodium falciparum malaria. Thin and thick smears are routinely used for this purpose. Methods In this study the Binax NOW® Malaria Test, an easy-to-perform

Investigation into the Mode of Phosphate Activation in the 4-Hydroxy-4-Methyl-2-Oxoglutarate/4-Carboxy-4-Hydroxy-2-Oxoadipate Aldolase from Pseudomonas putida F1. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
The 4-hydroxy-4-methyl-2-oxoglutarate (HMG)/4-carboxy-4-hydroxy-2-oxoadipate (CHA) aldolase is the last enzyme of both the gallate and protocatechuate 4,5-cleavage pathways which links aromatic catabolism to central cellular metabolism.

Stimuli‐Responsive Silsesquioxane Nanozymes for Organocatalysis in Water and Prodrug Activation in Cells

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Amino‐bearing silsesquioxanes are water‐stable nanozymes that exhibit aggregation‐ and disaggregation‐dependent catalysis and can be applied to intracellular prodrug activation for cancer therapy. ABSTRACT Synthetic nanozymes have emerged as promising alternatives to natural enzymes for catalytic and therapeutic applications, yet their limited ...

The mechanism of calcium-induced inhibition of muscle fructose 1,6-bisphosphatase and destabilization of glyconeogenic complex. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
The mechanism by which calcium inhibits the activity of muscle fructose 1,6-bisphosphatase (FBPase) and destabilizes its interaction with aldolase, regulating glycogen synthesis from non-carbohydrates in skeletal muscle is poorly understood.
