Zinc-α2-glycoprotein as an inhibitor of amine oxidase copper-containing 3 [PDF]

Open Biology, 2020
Zinc-α2-glycoprotein (ZAG) is a major plasma protein whose levels increase in chronic energy-demanding diseases and thus serves as an important clinical biomarker in the diagnosis and prognosis of the development of cachexia.

Past, Present and Future Anti-Obesity Effects of Flavin-Containing and/or Copper-Containing Amine Oxidase Inhibitors

Medicines, 2019
Background: Two classes of amine oxidases are found in mammals: those with a flavin adenine dinucleotide as a cofactor, such as monoamine oxidases (MAO) and lysine-specific demethylases (LSD), and those with copper as a cofactor, including copper ...

The tree of life of copper-containing amine oxidases [PDF]

Frontiers in Plant Science
Copper-containing amine oxidases (CuAOs) catalyze the terminal oxidation of polyamines (PAs), producing ammonium, an aminoaldehyde, and hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). Plant CuAOs are induced by stress-related hormones such as methyl-jasmonate (MeJA), abscisic
