Different Gene Preferences of Maple Syrup Urine Disease in the Aboriginal Tribes of Taiwan

open access: yesPediatrics and Neonatology, 2014
Maple syrup urine disease (MSUD) is a rare inborn error of metabolism caused by a deficiency of the branched-chain α-ketoacid dehydrogenase (BCKD) complex. Mutations in any one of the three different genes encoding for the BCKD components, namely, BCKDHA,

Lacticacidaemia due to pyruvate dehydrogenase deficiency, with evidence of protein polymorphism in the α-subunit of the enzyme [PDF]

open access: yes, 1986
In three infants with neonatal lacticacidaemia, a deficiency in the E 1 (pyruvate dehydrogenase) component of the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex was demonstrated in skin fibroblast cultures. Residual activites of the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex in the

Formation of reactive oxygen species by human and bacterial pyruvate and 2- oxoglutarate dehydrogenase multienzyme complexes reconstituted from recombinant components [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Individual recombinant components of pyruvate and 2-oxoglutarate dehydrogenase multienzyme complexes (PDHc, OGDHc) of human and Escherichia coli (E. coli) origin were expressed and purified from E. coli with optimized protocols.

Cuproptosis: potential new direction in diabetes research and treatment. [PDF]

open access: yesFront Endocrinol (Lausanne)
Cuproptosis, a recently discovered form of cell death, stems from an overabundance of copper ions infiltrating mitochondria. These ions directly engage lipoylated proteins, prompting their oligomerization and subsequent loss of iron-sulfur clusters. This

Catalysis of transthiolacylation in the active centers of dihydrolipoamide acyltransacetylase components of 2‐oxo acid dehydrogenase complexes

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, Volume 8, Issue 6, Page 880-896, June 2018., 2018
Two residues—Asp374 and His375—were identified to be catalytically important at the active center of the E2 component of the Escherichia coli 2‐oxoglutarate dehydrogenase complex. A series of experiments demonstrated that the mechanism of succinyl transfer between the thiol groups of dihydrolipoamide‐E2 and CoA does not involve acid–base catalysis ...

Human Metabolic Enzymes Deficiency: A Genetic Mutation Based Approach

open access: yesScientifica, Volume 2016, Issue 1, 2016., 2016
One of the extreme challenges in biology is to ameliorate the understanding of the mechanisms which emphasize metabolic enzyme deficiency (MED) and how these pretend to have influence on human health. However, it has been manifested that MED could be either inherited as inborn error of metabolism (IEM) or acquired, which carries a high risk of ...

Comparative analysis of two genomic regions among four strains of Buchnera aphidicola, primary endosymbiont of aphids.

open access: yes, 2004
Preliminary analysis of two selected genomic regions of Buchnera aphidicola BCc, the primary endosymbiont of the cedar aphid Cinara cedri, has revealed a number of interesting features when compared with the corresponding homologous regions of the three ...

LC-MS proteomics analysis of the iInsulin/IGF-1-deficient Caenorhabditis elegans daf-2(e1370) mutant reveals extensive restructuring of intermediary metabolism [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The insulin/IGF-1 receptor is a major known determinant of dauer formation, stress resistance, longevity, and metabolism in Caenorhabditis elegans. In the past, whole-genome transcript profiling was used extensively to study differential gene expression ...

Structure of the cubic core and the lipoamide dehydrogenase component of the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex. [PDF]

open access: yes, 1992
In this thesis, the crystal structures of the E3 component and of the catalytic domain of E2p are presented. These are the first atomic structures of the cubic core and of the E3 component of the pyruvate dehydrogenase and related multienzyme complexes ...
