Structures and proton-pumping strategies of mitochondrial respiratory enzymes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
Enzymes of the mitochondrial respiratory chain serve as proton pumps, using the energy made available from electron transfer reactions to transport protons across the inner mitochondrial membrane and create an electrochemical gradient used for the ...

Making tau amyloid models in vitro: a crucial and underestimated challenge

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This review highlights the challenges of producing in vitro amyloid assemblies of the tau protein. We review how accurately the existing protocols mimic tau deposits found in the brain of patients affected with tauopathies. We discuss the important properties that should be considered when forming amyloids and the benchmarks that should be used to ...

The Interaction Efficiency of XPD-p44 With Bulky DNA Damages Depends on the Structure of the Damage

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2021
The successful elimination of bulky DNA damages via the nucleotide excision repair (NER) system is largely determined by the damage recognition step. This step consists of primary recognition and verification of the damage. The TFIIH helicase XPD plays a

Optimization of collective enzyme activity via spatial localization [PDF]

open access: yesJ. Chem. Phys. 139, 135101 (2013), 2013
The spatial organization of enzymes often plays a crucial role in the functionality and efficiency of enzymatic pathways. To fully understand the design and operation of enzymatic pathways, it is therefore crucial to understand how the relative arrangement of enzymes affects pathway function. Here we investigate the effect of enzyme localization on the

Enzyme Kinetics at High Enzyme Concentration [PDF]

open access: yesBulletin of Mathematical Biology, 2000
We re-visit previous analyses of the classical Michaelis-Menten substrate-enzyme reaction and, with the aid of the reverse quasi-steady-state assumption, we challenge the approximation d[C]/dt approximately 0 for the basic enzyme reaction at high enzyme concentration.

Unraveling Mycobacterium tuberculosis acid resistance and pH homeostasis mechanisms

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Mycobacterium tuberculosis exhibits a remarkable resilience to acid stress. In this Review, we discuss some of the molecular mechanisms and metabolic pathways used by the tubercle bacilli to adapt and resist host‐mediated acid stress. Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) is a successful pathogen that has developed a variety of strategies to survive and ...

The phenomenon of degeneration of industrial Trichoderma reesei strains

open access: yesBiotechnology for Biofuels, 2021
Background Even if the loss of production capacity of a microorganism is said to be a serious problem in various biotechnology industries, reports in literature are rather rare. Strains of the genera Trichoderma reesei are used for large-scale production

Enzyme Similarity Networks [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2022
There is a crescent use of enzymes in multiple industries and sciences, ranging from materials and fuel synthesis to pharmaceutical and food production. Their applicability in this variety of fields depends not only on their biochemical function but also on their physicochemical properties.

Alternative NAD(P)H dehydrogenase and alternative oxidase: proposed physiological roles in animals [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
The electron transport systems in mitochondria of many organisms contain alternative respiratory enzymes distinct from those of the canonical respiratory system depicted in textbooks.

Elucidation of xenobiotic metabolism pathways in human skin and human skin models by proteomic profiling [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Human skin has the capacity to metabolise foreign chemicals (xenobiotics), but knowledge of the various enzymes involved is incomplete. A broad-based unbiased proteomics approach was used to describe the profile of xenobiotic metabolising enzymes present
