Requirement for ω and (ω–1)-hydroxylations of fatty acids by human cytochromes P450 2E1 and 4A11

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1999
Human liver microsomes and recombinant human P450 have been used as enzyme source in order to better understand the requirement for the optimal rate of ω and (ω–1)-hydroxylations of fatty acids by cytochromes P450 2E1 and 4A.

The cryoEM structure of cytochrome bd from C. glutamicum provides novel insights into structural properties of actinobacterial terminal oxidases

open access: yesFrontiers in Chemistry, 2023
Cytochromes bd are essential for microaerobic respiration of many prokaryotes including a number of human pathogens. These enzymes catalyze the reduction of molecular oxygen to water using quinols as electron donors.

A Third Way of Energy Conservation in Acetogenic Bacteria

open access: yesMicrobiology Spectrum, 2022
Acetogenic bacteria are a group of strictly anaerobic bacteria that make a living from acetate formation from two molecules of CO2 via the Wood-Ljungdahl pathway (WLP).

An engineered thermally tolerant apo-cytochrome scaffold for metal-less incorporation of heme derivative.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2023
Cytochrome c552 from Thermus thermophilus is one of the hot topics for creating smart biomaterials as it possesses remarkable stability, is tolerant to multiple mutations and has therefore been recently reported for a number of functionalizations upon ...

Maternal vitamin D deficiency impairs Treg and Breg responses in offspring mice and deteriorates allergic airway inflammation

open access: yesAllergy, Asthma & Clinical Immunology, 2020
Background Vitamin D (VitD) can regulate immune responses and maternal VitD-deficiency can affect immune responses in the offspring. This study aimed at investigating the effects of maternal VitD-deficiency during pregnancy on Treg and Breg responses in ...

Leukemia and Exposure to Potential Benzene Sources in Children From the Mexico City Metropolitan Area, 2010–2021: A Geospatial Analysis

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Leukemia is the most common childhood cancer in Mexico, and acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is the most frequent subtype. Exposure to high concentrations of benzene has been associated with ALL incidence, particularly in urban areas. This study evaluated the relationship between distance to benzene emission sources and the number

Transferrin receptor 1‐mediated iron uptake supports thermogenic activation in human cervical‐derived adipocytes

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
In this study, we found that human cervical‐derived adipocytes maintain intracellular iron level by regulating the expression of iron transport‐related proteins during adrenergic stimulation. Melanotransferrin is predicted to interact with transferrin receptor 1 based on in silico analysis.

The Rieske/cytochrome b complex of Heliobacteria

open access: yesBiochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Bioenergetics, 2008
Heliobacteria have a Rieske/cytochrome b complex composed of a Rieske protein, a cytochrome b(6,) a subunit IV and a di-heme cytochrome c. The overall structure of the complex seems close to the b(6)f complex from cyanobacteria and chloroplasts to the exception of the di-heme cytochrome. We show here by biochemical and biophysical studies that a heme c(

Interferon beta drives therapy resistance in a patient‐derived model of high‐grade serous ovarian cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Interferon type 1 (IFN‐1) production and signaling is associated with the acquisition of therapy resistance, following chronic DNA damage, via Interferon‐related DNA damage resistance signature (IRDS) gene expression. An alternative, DNA damage‐independent role of sustained IFN‐1 mediated resistance was identified and characterized by the emergence of ...
