Unique Features and Anti-microbial Targeting of Folate- and Flavin-Dependent Methyltransferases Required for Accurate Maintenance of Genetic Information

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2018
Comparative genome analyses have led to the discovery and characterization of novel flavin- and folate-dependent methyltransferases that mainly function in DNA precursor synthesis and post-transcriptional RNA modification by forming (ribo) thymidylate ...

Iron-sulfur flavoenzymes: the added value of making the most ancient redox cofactors and the versatile flavins work together

open access: yesOpen Biology, 2021
Iron-sulfur (Fe-S) flavoproteins form a broad and growing class of complex, multi-domain and often multi-subunit proteins coupling the most ancient cofactors (the Fe-S clusters) and the most versatile coenzymes (the flavin coenzymes, FMN and FAD).

Photolyase Production and Current Applications: A Review

open access: yesMolecules, 2022
The photolyase family consists of flavoproteins with enzyme activity able to repair ultraviolet light radiation damage by photoreactivation. DNA damage by the formation of a cyclobutane pyrimidine dimer (CPD) and a pyrimidine-pyrimidone (6-4 ...

Characterization of two bacterial multi-flavinylated proteins harboring multiple covalent flavin cofactors

open access: yesBBA Advances, 2023
In recent years, studies have shown that a large number of bacteria secrete multi-flavinylated proteins. The exact roles and properties, of these extracellular flavoproteins that contain multiple covalently anchored FMN cofactors, are still largely ...

Reservoir Computing‐Based Glucose Sensing With an Enzymatic Reaction Network

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Glucose oxidase (GOx) catalyzes the conversion of glucose into gluconic acid, lowering the solution pH. The extent of pH change depends on the glucose input and directly modulates the activity of the enzyme reservoir. Glucose levels can be sensed by monitoring the changes in the enzymatic reservoir output, that is, the generation of peptide fragments ...

Flavoprotein monooxygenases: Versatile biocatalysts

open access: yesBiotechnology Advances, 2021
Flavoprotein monooxygenases (FPMOs) are single- or two-component enzymes that catalyze a diverse set of chemo-, regio- and enantioselective oxyfunctionalization reactions. In this review, we describe how FPMOs have evolved from model enzymes in mechanistic flavoprotein research to biotechnologically relevant catalysts that can be applied for the ...

Germinal proto-mitochondria from rat liver

open access: yesBiochemistry and Biophysics Reports, 2019
A number of properties of the smallest (less than 0.2 μm) germinal proto-mitochondria (PRMC) from rat liver have been studied. These PRMC were obtained by filtering the light fraction of hepatic mitochondria (MC) through calibrated millipore membranes ...
