Genetic epilepsies with myoclonic seizures: Mechanisms and syndromes

open access: yesEpilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Genetic epilepsy with myoclonic seizures encompasses a heterogeneous spectrum of conditions, ranging from benign and self‐limiting forms to severe, progressive disorders. While their causes are diverse, a significant proportion stems from genetic abnormalities.

Biochemical characterization of L-asparaginase isoforms from Rhizobium etli—the boosting effect of zinc

open access: yesFrontiers in Chemistry
L-Asparaginases, divided into three structural Classes, catalyze the hydrolysis of L-asparagine to L-aspartic acid and ammonia. The members of Class 3, ReAIV and ReAV, encoded in the genome of the nitrogen fixing Rhizobium etli, have the same fold ...

Mechanisms of metal-dependent non-redox decarboxylases from quantum chemical calculations

open access: yesComputational and Structural Biotechnology Journal, 2021
Quantum chemical calculations are today an extremely valuable tool for studying enzymatic reaction mechanisms. In this mini-review, we summarize our recent work on several metal-dependent decarboxylases, where we used the so-called cluster approach to ...

Dali server update [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The Dali server (http://ekhidna2.biocenter.helsinki.fi/dali) is a network service for comparing protein structures in 3D. In favourable cases, comparing 3D structures may reveal biologically interesting similarities that are not detectable by comparing ...

The Hemoprotein Hhy1 Promotes Heme‐Dependent Catalase Activity of Ctt1

open access: yesMolecular Microbiology, EarlyView.
A Schizosaccharomyces pombe strain deficient in heme (hem1Δ) and siderophore (Fc) biosynthesis, as well as high‐affinity iron (Fe) uptake (blue), was used to uncover the hemoprotein Hhy1 that promotes the heme‐dependent activity of the catalase Ctt1. In contrast, hhy1Δ cells exhibit reduced Ctt1 activity and increased sensitivity to oxidative stress ...

Studies on racemic triglycerides as urease enzyme inhibitors

open access: yesBangladesh Journal of Pharmacology
Amidohydrolase enzymes regulate key pathways, and their dysregulation is linked to infection, immune imbalance, and metabolic dysregulation in cancer. Current inhibitors have issues of cost, environmental persistence, and toxicity.

Toward Photopharmacological Antimicrobial Chemotherapy Using Photoswitchable Amidohydrolase Inhibitors

open access: yesACS Infectious Diseases, 2016
Photopharmacological agents exhibit light-dependent biological activity and may have potential in the development of new antimicrobial agents/modalities. Amidohydrolase enzymes homologous to the well-known human histone deacetylases (HDACs) are present in bacteria, including resistant organisms responsible for a significant number of hospital-acquired ...

The BAHD Acyltransferase Gene Family: Evolutionary Dynamics, Biochemical Mechanisms, and Roles in Plant Stress Adaptation

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
BAHD acyltransferases drive metabolic diversification in plants by coupling conserved catalytic scaffolds with regulatory flexibility, enabling stress adaptation and ecological specialisation. ABSTRACT BAHD acyltransferases constitute one of the most versatile enzyme superfamilies in plants, catalysing the acylation of alcohols, amines, polyamines, and

Structural Analysis of Saccharomyces cerevisiae Dihydroorotase Reveals Molecular Insights into the Tetramerization Mechanism

open access: yesMolecules, 2021
Dihydroorotase (DHOase), a dimetalloenzyme containing a carbamylated lysine within the active site, is a member of the cyclic amidohydrolase family, which also includes allantoinase (ALLase), dihydropyrimidinase (DHPase), hydantoinase, and imidase ...
