A crucial active site network of titratable residues guides catalysis and NAD+ binding in human succinic semialdehyde dehydrogenase

Protein Science, Volume 34, Issue 1, January 2025.
Abstract Human succinic semialdehyde dehydrogenase is a mitochondrial enzyme fundamental in the neurotransmitter γ‐aminobutyric acid catabolism. It catalyzes the NAD+‐dependent oxidative degradation of its derivative, succinic semialdehyde, to succinic acid.

Epithelial barrier dysfunction and associated diseases in companion animals: Differences and similarities between humans and animals and research needs

Allergy, Volume 79, Issue 12, Page 3238-3268, December 2024.
Abstract Since the 1960s, more than 350,000 new chemicals have been introduced into the lives of humans and domestic animals. Many of them have become part of modern life and some are affecting nature as pollutants. Yet, our comprehension of their potential health risks for both humans and animals remains partial.

An Insight into the Sialotranscriptome of the Cat Flea, Ctenocephalides felis

PLoS ONE, 2012
Saliva of hematophagous arthropods contains a diverse mixture of compounds that counteracts host hemostasis. Immunomodulatory and antiinflammatory components are also found in these organisms' saliva. Blood feeding evolved at least ten times within arthropods, providing a scenario of convergent evolution for the solution of the salivary potion. Perhaps
