The Acylamide Amidohydrolase of Candida utilis: Purification and Properties [PDF]
SUMMARY: The amidohydrolase formed in the later stages of growth on glucose peptone medium by Candida utilis was purified 60-fold from cell-free extracts. The purified enzyme hydrolysed mono- and di-carboxylic acid amides, benzamide, nicotinamide, pyrazinamide and certain β-hydroxyl substituted fatty acid amides, was inactive on l-asparagine and l ...

Improvement of root architecture under abiotic stress through control of auxin homeostasis in Arabidopsis and Brassica crops [PDF]
Auxin plays an important role in many aspects of plant development including stress responses. Here we briefly summarize how auxin is involved in salt stress, drought (i.e.

ABSTRACT A leaf is an organ composed of different tissues that fulfill specific functions. We hypothesized that since cells in vascular or mesophyll tissues as well as in stoma are developmentally tuned to operate their functions, mitochondria from these cells could exhibit significant metabolic differences.

Regulation of N-Acetylkanamycin Amidohydrolase in the Idiophase in Kanamycin Fermentation [PDF]
Formation of N-acetylkanamycin amidohydrolase (NAKA) in a strain of Streptomyces kanamyceticus proceeded in parallel with the increase of both kanamycin (KM) and N-acetylkanamycin (NAK) in the initial period. NAKA formation then suddenly began to decrease in NAK but KM continued to increase before reaching a maximum level.

Characterization of the gene cluster involved in allantoate catabolism and its transcriptional regulation by the RpiR-type repressor HpxU in Klebsiella pneumoniae [PDF]
Bacteria, fungi, and plants have metabolic pathways for the utilization of nitrogen present in purine bases. In Klebsiella pneumoniae, the genes responsible for the assimilation of purine ring nitrogen are distributed in three separated clusters.

ABSTRACT Dormancy release and germination of the seed are two separate, but continuous phases controlled by both external (e.g., light and temperature) and internal (e.g., circadian clock and hormones) cues. In eudicot seeds, the endosperm tissues play a key role in dormancy release and germination through dynamic modulation of wall components and ...

Arylamidase activity of soils [PDF]
The enzyme amino acid arylamidase [alpha-aminoacyl-peptide hydrolyze (microsomal) EC 3.4.11.2] catalyzes the release of an N-terminal amino acid from peptides, amides or arylamides.

Update: Enzymatische Synthese für industrielle Anwendungen
Die Biokatalyse hat sich zu einer nachhaltigen und wettbewerbsfähigen Alternative zur herkömmlichen chemischen Synthese entwickelt und ermöglicht die enzymbasierte Herstellung nicht nur von chemischen Grundstoffen, sondern auch von (nicht natürlichen) Aminosäuren, (seltenen) Zuckern und synthetischen Nukleotiden.

The use of asparaginase to reduce acrylamide levels in cooked food [PDF]
Strategies proposed for reducing the formation of the suspected carcinogen acrylamide in cooked foods often rely on a reduction in the extent of the Maillard reaction, in which acrylamide is formed from the reaction between asparagine and reducing sugars.
