Ferricytochrome c Directly Oxidizes Aminoacetone to Methylglyoxal, a Catabolite Accumulated in Carbonyl Stress [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Age-related diseases are associated with increased production of reactive oxygen and carbonyl species such as methylglyoxal. Aminoacetone, a putative threonine catabolite, is reportedly known to undergo metal-catalyzed oxidation to methylglyoxal, NH4 ...

Rotenone selectively occludes sensitivity to hypoxia in rat carotid body glomus cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
Carotid body glomus cells release transmitters in response to hypoxia due to the increase of excitability resulting from inhibition of O2 -regulated K+ channels. However, the mechanisms involved in the detection of changes of O2 tension are unknown.

Conformational Dependence of a Protein Kinase Phosphate Transfer Reaction

open access: yes, 2004
Atomic motions and energetics for a phosphate transfer reaction catalyzed by the cAMP-dependent protein kinase (PKA) are calculated by plane-wave density functional theory, starting from structures of proteins crystallized in both the reactant ...

Acetylated Epigallocatechin Gallate and Ascorbyl Palmitate: Comparative Study on Antioxidant Activity and Retardation of Lipid Oxidation in Fish Mince and Shrimp Oil

open access: yesJournal of Food Science, Volume 90, Issue 10, October 2025.
ABSTRACT Antioxidant activities of acetylated epigallocatechin gallate (A‐EGCG) and ascorbyl palmitate (AP) were compared using different in vitro assays and food model systems. Both A‐EGCG and AP exhibited DPPH and ABTS radical scavenging activities and reducing power. AP demonstrated greater scavenging efficacy toward both radicals than A‐EGCG (p < 0.

Biomimetic chemistry of hemeproteins.

open access: yesThe Keio Journal of Medicine, 1989
Hemeproteins play important physiological roles for an oxygen metabolism in living organisms. Their functions are divided to three main groups, i) hemoglobins, myoglobins and the cytochromes which function by transporting and storing dioxygen and electrons; ii) catalase and peroxidases which are activated by hydrogen peroxide, iii) cytochrome oxidase ...

Development of Bioorthogonally Degradable Tough Hydrogels Using Enamine N‐Oxide Based Crosslinkers

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, Volume 37, Issue 13, April 2, 2025.
Inducibly degradable enamine N‐oxide crosslinkers are integrated into tough double network hydrogels, enabling rapid and bioorthogonal degradation by aqueous diboron solutions. These chemical reagent‐responsive biomaterials maintain structural integrity during use while enabling rapid degradation when needed, making them ideal for applications in ...

Reactive oxygen-related diseases: therapeutic targets and emerging clinical indications [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
SIGNIFICANCE Enhanced levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS) have been associated with different disease states. Most attempts to validate and exploit these associations by chronic antioxidant therapies have provided disappointing results. Hence, the

Genetically Tunable Enzymatic C‒H Amidation for Lactam Synthesis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
A major challenge in carbon‒hydrogen (C‒H) bond functionalization is to have the catalyst control precisely where a reaction takes place. Here we report engineered cytochrome P450 enzymes that perform unprecedented enantioselective C‒H amidation ...

Application of Brownian motion theory to the analysis of membrane channel ionic trajectories calculated by molecular dynamics [PDF]

open access: yes, 1988
This paper shows how Brownian motion theory can be used to analyze features of individual ion trajectories in channels as calculated by molecular dynamics, and that its use permits more precise determinations of diffusion coefficients than would ...
