Alcohol dehydrogenase and aldehyde dehydrogenase in malignant neoplasms [PDF]

open access: yesClinical and Experimental Medicine, 2016
According to International Agency for Research on Cancer, ethanol and acetaldehyde belong to group 1 of human carcinogens. The accurate mechanism by which alcohol consumption enhances carcinogenesis is still unexplained. Alcohol is oxidized primarily by alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) to acetaldehyde, a substance capable of initiating carcinogenesis by ...

Assessment of the microbiological activity in agricultural and urban soils

open access: yesSoil Science Annual, 2014
The aim of this study was to evaluate the enzymatic soil and the number of selected microorganisms in urban soil, which are located in the lane of the reconstructed road and compare it with a soil cultivated for agricultural purposes.

Functional Characterization and Structural Analysis of NADH Oxidase Mutants from Thermus thermophilus HB27: Role of Residues 166, 174, and 194 in the Catalytic Properties and Thermostability

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 2019
The Thermus thermophilus strain HB27 NADH-oxidase (Tt27-NOX) catalyzes the oxidation of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD(P)H) by reducing molecular oxygen to hydrogen peroxide in a two-electron transfer mechanism.

New biotechnological perspectives of a NADH oxidase variant from Thermus thermophilus HB27 as NAD+-recycling enzyme

open access: yesBMC Biotechnology, 2011
Background The number of biotransformations that use nicotinamide recycling systems is exponentially growing. For this reason one of the current challenges in biocatalysis is to develop and optimize more simple and efficient cofactor recycling systems ...

Short-time effects of herbicide nicosulfuron on biochemical activity of chernozem soil [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of the Serbian Chemical Society, 2012
Short-time effects of the herbicide nicosulfuron on biochemical activity of soil was investigated. Nicosulfuron rates of 0.3, 1.5 and 3.0 mg/kg of soil were tested in a laboratory on chernozem soil.

Self-assembled monolayers with biospecific affinity for lactate dehydrogenase for the electroenzymatic oxidation of lactate [PDF]

open access: yes, 1997
Surface modified gold electrodes with high biospecific affinity for NAD(H)-dependent lactate dehydrogenase have been prepared by covalent attachment of several traizine dyes to stepwise functionalized mixed alkanethiol self-assembled monolayers.

Enzymatic AND-Gate Based on Electrode-Immobilized Glucose-6-Phosphate Dehydrogenase: Towards Digital Biosensors and Biochemical Logic Systems with Low Noise [PDF]

open access: yesBiosens. Bioelectron. 25, 695-701 (2009), 2009
Electrode-immobilized glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase is used to catalyze an enzymatic reaction which carries out the AND logic gate. This logic function is considered here in the context of biocatalytic processes utilized for the biocomputing applications for "digital" (threshold) sensing/actuation.

Stereospecificity of cinnamyl alcohol dehydrogenase and synthesis of stereospecifically labelled coniferyl alcohol [PDF]

open access: yes, 1978
Using horse liver alcohol dehydrogenase, stereospecifically tritiated (R)- and (S)-(γ-3H)-coniferyl alcohol was synthesized. Using both of these substrates it was demonstrated that cinnamyl alcohol dehydrogenase from lignifying Forsythia tissue ...

Laboratory tests for aerobic bioremediation of the contaminated sites in the Czech Republic

open access: yesPlant, Soil and Environment, 2020
Laboratory-scale testing methods applicable to evaluation of contaminated subsurface microbial communities are discussed in relation to their potential in supporting effective site bioremediation. Both culture-dependent and culture-independent techniques
