A novel strategy for partial purification of alkane hydroxylase from P. chrysogenum SNP5 through reconstituting its native membrane into liposome [PDF]
Integral proteins or enzymes are still challenging to purify into their native state because of their need for an amphipathic environment and cofactors.

ALKBH1: emerging biomarker and therapeutic target for cancer treatment [PDF]
As neoplastic cells proliferate, disseminate, and infiltrate, they undergo substantial alterations in their epigenetic configuration. Among the pivotal enzymes implicated in this phenomenon is the AlkB family of demethylases, notably AlkB homolog 1 ...

The elite eating quality alleles Wxb and ALKb are regulated by OsDOF18 and coordinately improve head rice yield [PDF]
Summary Head rice yield (HRY) measures rice milling quality and determines final grain yield and commercial value. Here, we report that two major quantitative trait loci for milling quality in rice, qMq‐1 and qMq‐2, represent allelic variants of Waxy lv /

Bacteria on leaf surfaces encounter highly variable access to nutrients and water. This oligotrophic environment is partly due to the presence of cuticular waxes that render the leaf surface hydrophobic, reducing the leaching of nutrients and water loss ...

Structural and mutational analysis of Escherichia coli AlkB provides insight into substrate specificity and DNA damage searching. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: In Escherichia coli, cytotoxic DNA methyl lesions on the N1 position of purines and N3 position of pyrimidines are primarily repaired by the 2-oxoglutarate (2-OG) iron(II) dependent dioxygenase, AlkB.

The AlkB Homolog SlALKBH10B Negatively Affects Drought and Salt Tolerance in Solanum lycopersicum
ALKBH proteins, the homologs of Escherichia coli AlkB dioxygenase, constitute a single-protein repair system that safeguards cellular DNA and RNA against the harmful effects of alkylating agents.

Role of RNA modifications in carcinogenesis and carcinogen damage response
Abstract The field of epitranscriptomics encompasses the study of post‐transcriptional RNA modifications and their regulatory enzymes. Among the numerous RNA modifications, N6‐methyladenosine (m6A) has been identified as the most common internal modification of messenger RNA (mRNA).

Non-homologous functions of the AlkB homologs [PDF]
The DNA repair enzyme AlkB was identified in E. coli more than three decades ago. Since then, nine mammalian homologs, all members of the superfamily of alpha-ketoglutarate and Fe(II)-dependent dioxygenases, have been identified (designated ALKBH1-8 and FTO). While E.
