ICEKAT: an interactive online tool for calculating initial rates from continuous enzyme kinetic traces

open access: yesBMC Bioinformatics, 2020
Background Continuous enzyme kinetic assays are often used in high-throughput applications, as they allow rapid acquisition of large amounts of kinetic data and increased confidence compared to discontinuous assays.

Epigenetic blind spots – the role of DNA methylation dynamics in stem cell‐based models of embryogenesis

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Embryo‐like structures (stembryos) are an innovative tool, but they are hindered by experimental variability and limited developmental potential. DNA methylation is crucial for mammalian development, but its status in stembryo models is poorly characterized.

pH‐mediated activation of the lysosomal arginine sensor SLC38A9

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Cells monitor nutrient levels via the lysosomal transporter SLC38A9 to activate the mechanistic target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1). This study reveals that SLC38A9 function is regulated by pH. We identified histidine 544 as a critical pH sensor that undergoes conformational changes to control amino acid efflux from lysosomes; therefore, it ...

Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation improves the high incidence of neutralizing allo-antibodies observed in Hurler’s syndrome after pharmacological enzyme replacement therapy

open access: yesHaematologica, 2012
Background Mucopolysaccharidosis type I is caused by deficiency of α-L-iduronidase. Currently available treatment options include an allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant and enzyme replacement therapy.

Enzyme Inhibition in Relation to Chemotherapy.

open access: yesExperimental Biology and Medicine, 1949
Summary1. The effect of enzyme concentration on the inhibition produced by certain inhibitors of the succinic dehydrogenase system has been experimentally determined. The inhibitors studied were malonate, itaconate, oxalacetate, quinone and cupric ion.2. The reaction between succinic dehydrogenase and copper or quinone was not immediate but required 30

Degradation mechanism of the von Willebrand factor A2 domain by nattokinase

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Nattokinase, a natto‐derived protease, exhibits potent antithrombotic effects. This study demonstrates that nattokinase directly cleaves the von Willebrand factor (vWF) A2 domain in vitro. Unlike the native regulator ADAMTS13, nattokinase degrades folded vWF independently of shear stress.

Inhibition of enzymes by alkylsalicylic acids

open access: yesJournal of Pharmacy and Pharmacology, 1970
Abstract5-n-Alkylsalicylates inhibited a variety of enzymes that transform acidic substances, viz. glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase, glyoxalase, xanthine oxidase, carbonic anhydrase and D-amino-acid oxidase. Inhibitory potency rose to a peak at the n-nonyl derivative.

The ubiquitin‐proteasome system and autophagy as guardians of the cellular proteome

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This Perspective covers the three principles governing the crosstalk between the ubiquitin‐proteasome system and autophagy in cellular proteostasis: (1) a shared ubiquitin code routing substrates via shuttle factors or autophagy receptors; (2) spatial compartmentalization into phase‐separated degradation hubs and organelle‐specific modules (exemplified

An unexpected alternative viologen electron mediator site in tungsten‐containing formate dehydrogenase

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
An unexpected alternative interaction site for ethyl viologen was identified in formate dehydrogenase 1 from Methylorubrum extorquens. Combined mutagenesis, kinetic analysis, and docking revealed that aromatic residues near an iron–sulfur cluster enable flavin mononucleotide‐independent electron transfer, offering a framework for engineering improved ...
