Rare diseases leading to childhood Glaucoma. epidemiology, pathophysiogenesis, and management [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Noteworthy heterogeneity exists in the rare diseases associated with childhood glaucoma. Primary congenital glaucoma is mostly sporadic; however, 10% to 40% of cases are familial. CYP1B1 gene mutations seem to account for 87% of familial cases and 27% of

Ergothioneine Biosynthesis and Functionality in the Opportunistic Fungal Pathogen, Aspergillus fumigatus. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Ergothioneine (EGT; 2-mercaptohistidine trimethylbetaine) is a trimethylated and sulphurised histidine derivative which exhibits antioxidant properties. Here we report that deletion of Aspergillus fumigatus egtA (AFUA_2G15650), which encodes a trimodular

Cystathionine Beta Synthase as a Risk Factor for Alzheimer Disease

open access: yesCurrent Alzheimer Research, 2004
One of the known risk factors for developing Alzheimer disease (AD) is hyperhomocysteinemia. The latter may result from mutations of the genes coding for three key enzymes involved in homocysteine metabolism (methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase [MTHFR], methionine synthase [MS], and cystathionine beta-synthase [CBS]).

Engineering of methionine-auxotroph Escherichia coli via parallel evolution of two enzymes from Corynebacterium glutamicum's direct-sulfurylation pathway enables its recovery in minimal medium

open access: yesMetabolic Engineering Communications
Methionine biosynthesis relies on the sequential catalysis of multiple enzymes. Escherichia coli, the main bacteria used in research and industry for protein production and engineering, utilizes the three-step trans-sulfurylation pathway catalyzed by L ...
