Glutamate, Ornithine, Arginine, Proline, and Polyamine Metabolic Interactions: The Pathway Is Regulated at the Post-Transcriptional Level [PDF]
The metabolism of glutamate into ornithine, arginine, proline, and polyamines is a major network of nitrogen-metabolizing pathways in plants, which also produces intermediates like nitric oxide, and γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) that play critical roles in ...

Interaction of plant amine oxidases with diaminoethers [PDF]
Polyamines are ubiquitous compounds, which are involved in crucial physiological events including cell growth and differentiation. The catabolic oxidative degradation of polyamines is catalyzed by quinoprotein copper-containing amine oxidases (CAOs ...

A combination of plasma DAO and citrulline levels as a potential marker for acute mesenteric ischemia [PDF]
Introduction: There is no valid and reliable diagnostic test for early diagnosis of acute mesenteric ischemia (AMI). The aim of this study was to measure the plasma levels of diamine oxidase (DAO) and citrulline in AMI to gain insight into its early ...

Polymorphisms of two histamine-metabolizing enzymes genes and childhood allergic asthma: a case control study [PDF]
Background Histamine-metabolizing enzymes (N-methyltransferase and amiloride binding protein 1) are responsible for histamine degradation, a biogenic amine involved in allergic inflammation.

Comparing hydrazine-derived reactive groups as inhibitors of quinone-dependent amine oxidases
Lysyl oxidase has emerged as an important enzyme in cancer metastasis. Its activity has been reported to become upregulated in several types of cancer, and blocking its activity has been shown to limit the metastatic potential of various cancers.

Stimulation of antioxidative enzymes and polyamines during stripe rust disease of wheat
Content of polyamines and activities of antioxidative enzymes in response to stripe rust disease caused by Puccinia striiformis have been studied in two wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) cultivars PBW 343 (resistant) and HD 2329 (susceptible).

Cytochrome oxidase subunit VI of Trypanosoma brucei is imported without a cleaved presequence and is developmentally regulated at both RNA and protein levels [PDF]
Mitochondrial respiration in the African trypanosome undergoes dramatic developmental stage regulation. This requires co-ordinated control of components encoded by both the nuclear genome and the kinetoplast, the unusual mitochondrial genome of these ...

A Model for the Development of the Rhizobial and Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Symbioses in Legumes and Its Use to Understand the Roles of Ethylene in the Establishment of these two Symbioses [PDF]
We propose a model depicting the development of nodulation and arbuscular mycorrhizae. Both processes are dissected into many steps, using Pisum sativum L. nodulation mutants as a guideline. For nodulation, we distinguish two main developmental programs,
