Mitochondrial Dysfunction Induces Formation of Lipid Droplets as a Generalized Response to Stress [PDF]
Lipid droplet (LD) formation is a hallmark of cellular stress. Cells attempt to combat noxious stimuli by switching their metabolism from oxidative phosphorylation to glycolysis, sparing resources in LDs for generating cellular reducing power and for ...

Demonstration that spleen green hemeprotein is identical to granulocyte myeloperoxidase
The biochemical, spectroscopic, enzymatic, and redox properties of spleen myeloperoxidase, a peroxidase formerly called "spleen green hemeprotein," and granulocyte myeloperoxidase were compared by electrophoresis, amino-terminal amino acid sequences, optical and EPR spectroscopy, steady-state enzyme kinetics, and oxidation-reduction potential.

Improved method for assembly of hemeprotein neuronal NO-synthase heterodimers [PDF]
The assembly of mutated and wild type monomers into functional heterodimeric hemeproteins has provided important mechanistic insights. As in the case of NO synthase (NOS), the existing methods to make such heterodimeric NOSs are inefficient and labor intensive with typical yields of about 5%.

Genetic Polymorphisms in CYP2 Gene Family in Bulgarian Individuals and their Clinical Implications
The cytochrome P450 superfamily consists of hemeproteins involved in the detoxication of different xenobiotics, including drugs. The CYP2 gene family is responsible for the metabolism of 80% of the drugs in clinical use.

Metabolic stability of superoxide adducts derived from newly developed cyclic nitrone spin traps [PDF]
Reactive oxygen species are by-products of aerobic metabolism involved in the onset and evolution of various pathological conditions. Among them, the superoxide radical is of special interest as the origin of several damaging species such as H2O2 ...

Iron transfer and storage proteins [PDF]
Željezo je vrlo bitan element za temeljne metaboličke procese. S obzirom na činjenicu da je neophodan za niz funkcija, organizmi ga moraju pohranjivati na način da bude netoksičan i brzo dostupan.

Will 1,2-dihydro-1,2-azaborine-based drugs resist metabolism by cytochrome P450 compound I? [PDF]
1,2-dihydro-1,2-azaborine is a structural and electronic analogue of benzene which is able to occupy benzene-binding pockets in T4 lysozyme and has been proposed as suitable arene-mimicking group for biological and pharmaceutical applications.
