Identification and Expression Analysis of an Atypical Alkaline Phosphatase in Emiliania huxleyi

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2018
Emiliania huxleyi, a cosmopolitan coccolithophore in the modern ocean, plays an important role in the carbon cycle and local climate feedback as it can form extensive blooms, calcify, and produce dimethylsulfoniopropionate (DMSP) leading to the ...

The metal cofactor zinc and interacting membranes modulate SOD1 conformation-aggregation landscape in an in vitro ALS model

eLife, 2021
Aggregation of Cu–Zn superoxide dismutase (SOD1) is implicated in the motor neuron disease, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). Although more than 140 disease mutations of SOD1 are available, their stability or aggregation behaviors in membrane ...

Mechanisms, Cofactors, and Augmenting Factors Involved in Anaphylaxis

Frontiers in Immunology, 2017
Anaphylaxis is an acute and life-threatening systemic reaction. Many triggers have been described, including food, drug, and hymenoptera allergens, which are the most frequently involved. The mechanisms described in anaphylactic reactions are complex and

Immune-Mediated Mechanisms in Cofactor-Dependent Food Allergy and Anaphylaxis: Effect of Cofactors in Basophils and Mast Cells

Frontiers in Immunology, 2021
Cofactors may explain why in some cases food ingestion leads to anaphylaxis while in others elicits a milder reaction or tolerance. With cofactors, reactions become more severe and/or have a lower allergen threshold. Cofactors are present in up to 58% of

The Geometry of the Catalytic Active Site in [FeFe]-hydrogenases is Determined by Hydrogen Bonding and Proton Transfer [PDF]

, 2019
[FeFe]-hydrogenases are efficient metalloenzymes that catalyze the oxidation and evolution of molecular hydrogen, H2. They serve as a blueprint for the design of synthetic H2-forming catalysts.

A 7-Deazaadenosylaziridine Cofactor for Sequence-Specific Labeling of DNA by the DNA Cytosine-C5 Methyltransferase M.HhaI

Molecules, 2015
DNA methyltransferases (MTases) catalyze the transfer of the activated methyl group of the cofactor S-adenosyl-l-methionine (AdoMet or SAM) to the exocyclic amino groups of adenine or cytosine or the C5 ring atom of cytosine within specific DNA sequences.

The Molybdenum Cofactor [PDF]

Journal of Biological Chemistry, 2013
The transition element molybdenum needs to be complexed by a special cofactor to gain catalytic activity. Molybdenum is bound to a unique pterin, thus forming the molybdenum cofactor (Moco), which, in different variants, is the active compound at the catalytic site of all molybdenum-containing enzymes in nature, except bacterial molybdenum nitrogenase.

Pteridines CVII* Synthesis of 6-Azidomethyl-5,6,7,8-tetrahydropterin. Photo degradation Products and Cofactor Properties on Aromatic Amino Acid Monooxygenases

Pteridines, 1995
The synthesis of 6-azidomethyl-5,6,7,8-tetrahydropterin (6-AzmH4Ptr) (9) starting from 2,4-diamino- 6-hydroxymethylpteridine (1) is described. A special protecting group strategy had to be applied to perform the structural modifications. The introduction
