The Role of Ten-Eleven Translocation Proteins in Inflammation
Frontiers in Immunology, 2022 Ten-eleven translocation proteins (TET1-3) are dioxygenases that oxidize 5-methyldeoxycytosine, thus taking part in passive and active demethylation. TETs have shown to be involved in immune cell development, affecting from self-renewal of stem cells and

Gene Expression during BTEX Biodegradation by a Microbial Consortium Acclimatized to Unleaded Gasoline and a Pseudomonas putida Strain (HM346961) Isolated from It [PDF]
Polish Journal of Microbiology, 2017 Pseudomonas putida strain (HM346961) was isolated from a consortium of bacteria acclimatized to unleaded gasoline-contaminated water. The consortium can efficiently remove benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene and xylene (BTEX) isomers, and a similar capability

Roles of HIF and 2-Oxoglutarate-Dependent Dioxygenases in Controlling Gene Expression in Hypoxia
Cancers, 2021 Simple Summary Hypoxia—reduction in oxygen availability—plays key roles in both physiological and pathological processes. Given the importance of oxygen for cell and organism viability, mechanisms to sense and respond to hypoxia are in place.

Emerging roles for thiol dioxygenases as oxygen sensors
The FEBS Journal, 2021 Cysteine dioxygenases, 3‐mercaptopropionate dioxygenases and mercaptosuccinate dioxygenases are all thiol dioxygenases (TDOs) that catalyse oxidation of thiol molecules to sulphinates.

Hydroperoxylation by Hydroxyethylphosphonate Dioxygenase [PDF]
Journal of the American Chemical Society, 2009 Hydroxyethylphosphonate dioxygenase (HEPD) catalyzes the O(2)-dependent cleavage of the carbon-carbon bond of 2-hydroxyethylphosphonate (2-HEP) to afford hydroxymethylphosphonate (HMP) and formate without input of electrons or use of any organic cofactors. Two mechanisms have been proposed to account for this reaction.

Structure of an aromatic-ring-hydroxylating dioxygenase – naphthalene 1,2-dioxygenase [PDF]
Structure, 1998 Pseudomonas sp. NCIB 9816-4 utilizes a multicomponent enzyme system to oxidize naphthalene to (+)-cis-(1R,2S)-dihydroxy-1,2-dihydronaphthalene. The enzyme component catalyzing this reaction, naphthalene 1,2-dioxygenase (NDO), belongs to a family of aromatic-ring-hydroxylating dioxygenases that oxidize aromatic hydrocarbons and related compounds to cis ...

Substrate stereo‐specificity in tryptophan dioxygenase and indoleamine 2,3‐dioxygenase [PDF]
Proteins: Structure, Function, and Bioinformatics, 2010 AbstractThe first and rate‐limiting step of the kynurenine pathway, in which tryptophan (Trp) is converted to N‐formylkynurenine is catalyzed by two heme‐containing proteins, Indoleamine 2,3‐dioxygenase (IDO), and Tryptophan 2,3‐dioxygenase (TDO). In mammals, TDO is found exclusively in liver tissue, IDO is found ubiquitously in all tissues.

Alteration of the Substrate Specificity of the Angular Dioxygenase Carbazole 1,9a-Dioxygenase [PDF]
Bioscience, Biotechnology, and Biochemistry, 2008 Carbazole 1,9a-dioxygenase (CARDO) consists of terminal oxygenase (CARDO-O) and electron transport components. CARDO can catalyze specific oxygenation for various substrates: angular dioxygenation for carbazole and dibenzo-p-dioxin, lateral dioxygenation for anthracene, and monooxygenation for methylene carbon of fluorene and sulfide sulfur of ...
