Cholesterol epoxide hydrolase and cancer

Current Opinion in Pharmacology, 2012
Cholesterol epoxide hydrolase (ChEH) catalyzes the hydration of cholesterol-5,6-epoxides (5,6-EC) into cholestane-3β,5α,6β-triol. ChEH is a hetero-oligomeric complex called the anti-estrogen binding site (AEBS) comprising 3β-hydroxysterol-Δ(8)-Δ(7)-isomerase (D8D7I) and 3β-hydroxysterol-Δ(7)-reductase (DHCR7).

The Emerging Parkinson's Disease Oxylipin‐Ome

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Parkinson Disease (PD) is increasingly considered a proteinopathy and lipidopathy. This proteinopathy+lipidopathy paradigm has been further refined to a fatty acid (FA)‐opathy, centering dysregulated FA metabolism as fundamental in PD lipid dysfunction.

Microsomal epoxide hydrolase polymorphisms

Molecular Medicine Reports, 2010
Microsomal epoxide hydrolase plays a dual role in the activation and detoxification of carcinogenic compounds. Two polymorphic sites have been described in exons 3 and 4 of the microsomal epoxide hydrolase gene that change tyrosine residue 113 to histidine (Tyr113His) and histidine 139 to arginine (His139Arg), respectively.

Transcriptomic analyses reveal increased expression of dioxygenases, monooxygenases, and other metabolizing enzymes involved in anthracene degradation in the marine alga Ulva lactuca

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022
To analyze the mechanisms involved in anthracene (ANT) degradation in the marine alga Ulva lactuca, total RNA was obtained from the alga cultivated without ANT and with 5 μM of ANT for 24 h, and transcriptomic analyses were performed.

Synthetic Strategies for Activity‐Based Probes to Decode Ubiquitin‐Like Modifiers

Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Ubiquitin‐like proteins (Ubls) such as SUMO, NEDD8, ISG15, URM1, UFM1, FAT10, ATG8/ATG12, and FUBI are essential regulators of cellular homeostasis, controlling processes from protein stability and trafficking to immune signaling and autophagy.
