Activation Energy of Organic Matter Decomposition in Soil and Consequences of Global Warming
Activation energy (Ea) is the minimum energy necessary for (bio)chemical reactions defining reaction rates, e.g., organic matter transformations in soil. Based on the Ea database of enzyme activities, CO2 production, heat release during soil incubation, and thermal oxidation of soil organic matter, we assess the Ea of biotic and abiotic transformation ...

The new ionization technique, vacuum‐insulated probe‐heated electrospray, allows for a simple dilute‐and‐shoot sample preparation to be used with liquid chromatography time‐of‐flight mass spectrometry in urine drug screening. Comparison with a method relying on solid‐phase extraction and conventional electrospray ionization shows improved performance ...

Characterizing Diagnostic Delays in Metachromatic Leukodystrophy: A Real‐World Data Approach
ABSTRACT Neurodegeneration in metachromatic leukodystrophy (MLD) may be preceded by systemic complications. Characterization of these features is critical to define barriers to early diagnosis and treatment eligibility for gene therapy. We utilized medical billing (claims) datasets and a natural history study to capture pre‐diagnosis MLD‐related events.

ABSTRACT The number of inherited metabolic diseases (IMDs) in newborn screening (NBS) programs has increased significantly in the past decades. For some of the IMDs included in NBS (e.g., tyrosinemia type I), there are clear and substantial health benefits of NBS, while for others (e.g., very long chain acyl CoA dehydrogenase deficiency and 3 ...

Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells for the Treatment of Lysosomal Storage Disorders
ABSTRACT Lysosomal disorders (LSDs) are a group of rare metabolic disorders, with an overall incidence of 1:4800 to 1:8000 live births. LSDs are primarily caused by dysfunctional lysosomal enzymes, which typically lead to the progressive accumulation of substrates within cellular lysosomes.

Tetrahydroisoquinoline derivatives: a new perspective on monoaminergic dysfunction in children with ADHD? [PDF]
BACKGROUND: The dopamine-derived tetrahydroisoquinolines (TIQ) synthesized endogeneously from aldehydes and catecholamines have shown to modulate neurotransmission, central metabolism and motor activity.

Abstract Conventional delayed‐flood rice (Oryza sativa L.; DFR) cultivation in United States faces increasing challenges such as nutrient losses, water scarcity, and greenhouse gas emissions. Alternative furrow‐irrigated rice (FIR) cultivation is gaining interest for its water use efficiency and production flexibility.

Promiscuity in the enzymatic catalysis of phosphate and sulfate transfer [PDF]
The enzymes that facilitate phosphate and sulfate hydrolysis are among the most proficient natural catalysts known to date. Interestingly, a large number of these enzymes are promiscuous catalysts that exhibit both phosphatase and sulfatase activities in

Revolution of AAV in Drug Discovery: From Delivery System to Clinical Application
ABSTRACT Adeno‐associated virus (AAV) is a non‐enveloped DNA virus infecting a wide variety of species, tissues, and cell types, which is recognized as a safe and effective method for delivering therapeutic transgenes. AAV vector is the most popular viral gene delivery system in clinical delivery systems with unique and multiple advantages, such as ...

Mammalian sulfo-conjugate metabolism [PDF]
Sulfoconjugates occur ubiquitously as sulfopolysaccharides, sulfolipids and sulfoproteins. A variety of sulfotransferases catalyze the sulfation process with 3'- phosphoadenosine 5'-phosphosulfate as the sulfate donor.
