Structural basis for the high specificity of a Trypanosoma congolense immunoassay targeting glycosomal aldolase [PDF]
, 2017 Background : Animal African trypanosomosis (AAT) is a neglected tropical disease which imposes a heavy burden on the livestock industry in Sub-Saharan Africa. Its causative agents are Trypanosoma parasites, with T. congolense and T.

Fructose metabolism in Chromohalobacter salexigens: interplay between the Embden–Meyerhof–Parnas and Entner–Doudoroff pathways [PDF]
, 2019 Background The halophilic bacterium Chromohalobacter salexigens metabolizes glucose exclusively through the Entner–Doudoroff (ED) pathway, an adaptation which results in inefficient growth, with significant carbon overflow, especially at low salinity ...

The predicted secondary structures of class I fructose-bisphosphate aldolases [PDF]
Biochemical Journal, 1988 The results of several secondary-structure prediction programs were combined to produce an estimate of the regions of alpha-helix, beta-sheet and reverse turns for fructose-bisphosphate aldolases from human and rat muscle and liver, from Trypanosoma brucei and from Drosophila melanogaster. All the aldolase sequences gave essentially the same pattern of

Metabolic and molecular events occurring during chromoplast biogenesis [PDF]
, 2011 Chromoplasts are nonphotosynthetic plastids that accumulate carotenoids. They derive from other plastid forms, mostly chloroplasts. The biochemical events responsible for the interconversion of one plastid form into another are poorly documented. However,

Distinct plastid fructose bisphosphate aldolases function in photosynthetic and non-photosynthetic metabolism in Arabidopsis [PDF]
Journal of Experimental Botany, 2021 Abstract Plastid metabolism is critical in both photoautotrophic and heterotrophic plant cells. In chloroplasts, fructose-1,6-bisphosphate aldolase (FBA) catalyses the formation of both fructose 1,6-bisphosphate and sedoheptulose 1,7-bisphosphate within the Calvin–Benson cycle. Three Arabidopsis genes, AtFBA1–AtFBA3, encode plastidial

Explicit consideration of topological and parameter uncertainty gives new insights into a well-established model of glycolysis [PDF]
, 2013 Previous models of glycolysis in the sleeping sickness parasite Trypanosoma brucei assumed that the core part of glycolysis in this unicellular parasite is tightly compartimentalized within an organelle, the glycosome, which had previously been shown to ...

The complete amino acid sequence of human skeletal-muscle fructose-bisphosphate aldolase [PDF]
Biochemical Journal, 1988 The complete amino acid sequence of human skeletal-muscle fructose-bisphosphate aldolase, comprising 363 residues, was determined. The sequence was deduced by automated sequencing of CNBr-cleavage, o-iodosobenzoic acid-cleavage, trypsin-digest and staphylococcal-proteinase-digest fragments.

Anther proteomic characterization in temperature sensitive Bainong male sterile wheat
Biologia Plantarum, 2015 Male sterile line is a useful material for hybridization, but its sterility mechanism, especially proteomic profile, is still not entirely clear. In wheat (Triticum aestivum L.), a male sterile Bainong (BNS) genotype whose sterility could be manipulated ...
