Flavin Mononucleotide as a Biomarker of Organ Quality—A Pilot Study [PDF]

Transplantation Direct, 2020
Background. Flavin mononucleotide (FMN), released from damaged mitochondrial complex I during hypothermic liver perfusion, has been shown to be predictive of 90-day graft loss. Normothermic machine perfusion (NMP) and normothermic regional perfusion (NRP)

Structure-Activity Relationship of Flavin Analogues That Target the Flavin Mononucleotide Riboswitch. [PDF]

ACS Chem Biol, 2018
The flavin mononucleotide (FMN) riboswitch is an emerging target for the development of novel RNA-targeting antibiotics. We previously discovered an FMN derivative, 5FDQD, that protects mice against diarrhea-causing Clostridium difficile bacteria. Here, we present the structure-based drug design strategy that led to the discovery of this fluoro-phenyl ...

Affinity-Based Profiling of the Flavin Mononucleotide Riboswitch. [PDF]

J Am Chem Soc, 2022
Riboswitches are structural RNA elements that control gene expression. These naturally occurring RNA sensors are of continued interest as antibiotic targets, molecular sensors, and functional elements of synthetic circuits. Here, we describe affinity-based profiling of the flavin mononucleotide (FMN) riboswitch to characterize ligand binding and ...

Lactobacillus plantarum Generate Electricity through Flavin Mononucleotide-Mediated Extracellular Electron Transfer to Upregulate Epithelial Type I Collagen Expression and Thereby Promote Microbial Adhesion to Intestine [PDF]

Biomedicines, 2023
The mechanism behind how flavin mononucleotide (FMN)-producing bacteria attach to a host intestine remains unclear. In order to address this issue, this study isolated the Gram-positive bacteria Lactobacillus plantarum from Mongolian fermented Airag ...

Caffeic Acid Inhibits the Formation of 7-Carboxyheptyl Radicals from Oleic Acid under Flavin Mononucleotide Photosensitization by Scavenging Singlet Oxygen and Quenching the Excited State of Flavin Mononucleotide [PDF]

Molecules, 2014
We examined the effects of caffeic acid (CA) and related compounds on 7-carboxyheptyl radical formation. This analysis was performed using a standard D2O reaction mixture containing 4.3 mM oleic acid, 25 μM flavin mononucleotide (FMN), 160 mM phosphate ...

H2-Driven Reduction of Flavin by Hydrogenase Enables Cleaner Operation of Nitroreductases for Nitro-Group to Amine Reductions

Frontiers in Catalysis, 2022
Hydrogenase-mediated reduction of flavin mononucleotide by H2 is exploited to enable cleaner application of nitroreductase enzymes for reduction of aromatic nitro functional groups. This turns the overall reaction into a biocatalytic hydrogenation.
