Enzymes as chaperones and chaperones as enzymes

open access: yesFEBS Letters, 1998
Chaperones and foldases are two groups of accessory proteins which assist maturation of nascent peptides into functional proteins in cells. Protein disulfide isomerase, a foldase, and ATP‐dependent proteases, responsible for degradation of misfolded proteins in cells, both have intrinsic chaperone activities.

Direct Single Molecule Imaging of Enhanced Enzyme Diffusion [PDF]

open access: yesPhys. Rev. Lett. 123, 128101 (2019), 2018
Recent experimental results have shown that active enzymes can diffuse faster when they are in the presence of their substrates. Fluorescence correlation spectroscopy (FCS), which relies on analyzing the fluctuations in fluorescence intensity signal to measure the diffusion coefficient of particles, has typically been employed in most of the prior ...

Analysis of nucleosome repositioning by yeast ISWI and Chd1 chromatin remodeling complexes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
ISWI proteins form the catalytic core of a subset of ATP-dependent chromatin remodelling activities in eukaryotes from yeast to man. Many of these complexes have been found to reposition nucleosomes, but with different directionalities.

Purification and Characterization of a Novel Alginate Lyase from the Marine Bacterium Bacillus sp. Alg07

open access: yesMarine Drugs, 2018
Alginate oligosaccharides with different bioactivities can be prepared through the specific degradation of alginate by alginate lyases. Therefore, alginate lyases that can be used to degrade alginate under mild conditions have recently attracted public ...

Integrative genomic mining for enzyme function to enable engineering of a non-natural biosynthetic pathway. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The ability to biosynthetically produce chemicals beyond what is commonly found in Nature requires the discovery of novel enzyme function. Here we utilize two approaches to discover enzymes that enable specific production of longer-chain (C5-C8) alcohols

Non-toxic total nitrogen determination using a low alkaline persulfate digestion

open access: yesMethodsX, 2020
Measuring total nitrogen, nitrate, and nitrite is critical for compliance with water safety standards. Previous methods for measuring total nitrogen were hazardous, time consuming, and expensive.

Master curve of boosted diffusion for ten catalytic enzymes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Molecular agitation more rapid than thermal Brownian motion is reported for cellular environments, motor proteins, synthetic molecular motors, enzymes, and common chemical reactions, yet that chemical activity couples to molecular motion contrasts with generations of accumulated knowledge about diffusion at equilibrium. To test the limits of this idea,

Formation of Enzyme-Enzyme Heteroconjugates

open access: yesAgricultural and Biological Chemistry, 1984
Enzyme-enzyme heteroconjugates of phosphoglyceromutase, enolase and pyruvate kinase, which sequentially act to produce ATP in the glycolytic pathway, were constructed with a bifunctional reagent, N-succinimidyl 3-(2-pyridyldithio)propionate. The conjugates of phospho-glyceromutase-enolase, enolase-pyruvate kinase and phosphoglyceromutase-enolase ...

Purification and biochemical characterization of a novel thermostable protease from the oyster mushroom Pleurotus sajor-caju strain CTM10057 with industrial interest

open access: yesBMC Biotechnology, 2019
Background Proteases are hydrolytic enzymes that catalyze peptide linkage cleavage reactions at the level of proteins and peptides with different degrees of specificity. This group draws the attention of industry.
