Dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO) reductase a member of the DMSO reductase family of molybdenum enzymes
Herein we describe the application of continuous wave (CW) and pulsed EPR spectroscopy to the structural (geometric and electronic) characterization of the Mo(V) active site within dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO)reductase and where appropriate, model molybdenum(

Methane, arsenic, selenium and the origins of the DMSO reductase family. [PDF]
AbstractMononuclear molybdoenzymes of the dimethyl sulfoxide reductase (DMSOR) family catalyze a number of reactions essential to the carbon, nitrogen, sulfur, arsenic, and selenium biogeochemical cycles. These enzymes are also ancient, with many lineages likely predating the divergence of the last universal common ancestor into ...

The use of dimethylsulfoxide as a solvent in enzyme inhibition studies: the case of aldose reductase [PDF]
Aldose reductase (AR) is an enzyme devoted to cell detoxification and at the same time is strongly involved in the aetiology of secondary diabetic complications and the amplification of inflammatory phenomena.

Detection of the optical bands of molybdenum(V) in DMSO reductase (Rhodobacter capsulatus) by low-temperature MCD spectroscopy [PDF]
Dimethylsulphoxide (DMSO) reductase from R. capsulatus contains a molybdenum-pterin cofactor at its active site. As prepared the molybdenum is in the 6+ oxidation state, devoid of EPR signals.

Reduction of Protein Bound Methionine Sulfoxide by a Periplasmic Dimethyl Sulfoxide Reductase
In proteins, methionine (Met) can be oxidized into Met sulfoxide (MetO). The ubiquitous methionine sulfoxide reductases (Msr) A and B are thiol-oxidoreductases reducing MetO.

Assembly pathway of a bacterial complex iron sulfur molybdoenzyme
Protein folding and assembly into macromolecule complexes within the living cell are complex processes requiring intimate coordination. The biogenesis of complex iron sulfur molybdoenzymes (CISM) requires use of a system specific chaperone – a redox ...

Redox characteristics of the tungsten DMSO reductase of Rhodobacter capsulatus
The dimethylsulfoxide reductase (DMSOR) from Rhodobacter capsulatus is known to retain its three‐dimensional structure and enzymatic activity upon substitution of molybdenum, the metal that occurs naturally at the active site, by tungsten. The redox properties of tungsten‐substituted DMSOR (W‐DMSOR) have been investigated by a dye‐mediated reductive ...

All-trans retinoic acid has renoprotective effects on Cisplatin-induced acute kidney injury in rats. [PDF]
All-trans retinoic acid (ATRA) is the active metabolites of vitamin A; it has antioxidant effects, and can regulate apoptosis. This study aims to observe the effects of ATRA on cisplatin-induced acute kidney injury, where a total of 96 Sprague-Dawley ...
