Mechanisms of Neuronal Damage in Acute Hepatic Porphyrias
Diagnostics, 2021 Porphyrias are a group of congenital and acquired diseases caused by an enzymatic impairment in the biosynthesis of heme. Depending on the specific enzyme involved, different types of porphyrias (i.e., chronic vs. acute, cutaneous vs.

Hypoxic Regulation of the Large-Conductance, Calcium and Voltage-Activated Potassium Channel, BK
Frontiers in Physiology, 2021 Hypoxia is a condition characterized by a reduction of cellular oxygen levels derived from alterations in oxygen balance. Hypoxic events trigger changes in cell-signaling cascades, oxidative stress, activation of pro-inflammatory molecules, and growth ...

Hydrogen Sulfide and Hemeproteins: Knowledge and Mysteries [PDF]
Antioxidants & Redox Signaling, 2011 Historically, hydrogen sulfide (H(2)S) has been regarded as a poisonous gas, with a wide spectrum of toxic effects. However, like ·NO and CO, H(2)S is now referred to as a signaling gas involved in numerous physiological processes. The list of reports highlighting the physiological effects of H(2)S is rapidly expanding and several drug candidates are ...

The Plant Genome, Volume 16, Issue 2, June 2023., 2023 Abstract De novo purine biosynthesis is required for the incorporation of fixed nitrogen in ureide exporting nodules, as formed on soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] roots. However, in many cases, the enzymes involved in this pathway have been deduced strictly from genome annotations with little direct genetic evidence, such as mutant studies, to confirm

Encapsulation of sugar beet phytoglobin BvPgb 1.2 and myoglobin in a lipid sponge phase system
Frontiers in Soft Matter, 2023 Globins are usually associated with oxygen carriage in vertebrates. However, plants also contain similar heme-containing proteins, called phytoglobins (Pgbs).

Label-free photoacoustic microscopy of cytochromes [PDF]
, 2013 Photoacoustic microscopy (PAM) has achieved submicron lateral resolution in showing subcellular structures; however, relatively few endogenous subcellular contrasts have so far been imaged. Given that the hemeprotein, mostly cytochromes in general cells,

The effects of nitroxyl (HNO) on soluble guanylate cyclase activity: interactions at ferrous heme and cysteine thiols [PDF]
, 2009 It has been previously proposed that nitric oxide (NO) is the only biologically relevant nitrogen oxide capable of activating the enzyme soluble guanylate cyclase (sGC). However, recent reports implicate HNO as another possible activator of sGC.
