Structural insights into manganese-dependent arylsulfatase from Enterococcus faecium and its catalytic promiscuity [PDF]
Catalytic promiscuity, wherein enzymes catalyze multiple distinct reactions by stabilizing various transition states, is well documented in the alkaline phosphatase superfamily.

Exploring the Venom Gland Transcriptome of Bothrops asper and Bothrops jararaca: De Novo Assembly and Analysis of Novel Toxic Proteins [PDF]
Previous proteomic studies of viperid venom revealed that it is mainly composed of metalloproteinases (SVMPs), serine proteinases (SVSPs), phospholipase A2 (PLA2), and C-type lectins (CTLs).

Soil enzymatic activity and wheat grain yield under cover crop systems
For years, the impacts of using cover crops in productive systems have been measured by their relation with soil chemical and physical characteristics. Consequently, the effects on the soil microbiological characteristics have been little explored.

Pseudo arylsulfatase A deficiency Biosynthesis of an abnormal arylsulfatase A [PDF]
Pseudo arylsulfatase A deficiency, an asymptomatic condition, and metachromatic leukodystrophy, a severe neurodegenerative disease, are both associated with profound reductions of arylsulfatase A activity in man. We now report that with metabolic labelling, cultured pseudo deficient cells synthesized about 20% of the normal amount of arylsulfatase A at

Arylsulfatase A pseudodeficiency incidence in Turkey
Pseudodeficiency (Pd) in arylsulfatase A (ASA) is a relatively frequent condition in healthy individuals. It produces a reduction in enzyme activity similar to that found in metachromatic leukodystrophy (MLD). A variable incidence of the Pd allele

Changes in Soil Sulphur Fractions as Influenced by Nutrient Management Practices in Mulberry
Sulphur (S) plays a vital role in improving the quality of mulberry leaves because of its involvement in protein synthesis. The knowledge of different pools of S in soils and its bioavailability for mulberry nutrition is thus, required for optimizing S ...
