Structure based design and synthesis of antiparasitic pyrrolopyrimidines targeting pteridine reductase 1 [PDF]
The treatment of Human African Trypanosomiasis remains a major unmet health need in sub-Saharan Africa. Approaches involving new molecular targets are important and pteridine reductase 1 (PTR1), an enzyme that reduces dihydrobiopterin in Trypanosoma spp.

FAD binding, cobinamide binding and active site communication in the corrin reductase (CobR) [PDF]
Adenosylcobalamin, the coenzyme form of vitamin B12, is one Nature's most complex coenzyme whose de novo biogenesis proceeds along either an anaerobic or aerobic metabolic pathway. The aerobic synthesis involves reduction of the centrally chelated cobalt

Mutations in SRD5B1 (AKR1D1), the gene encoding Delta(4)-3-oxosteroid 5 beta-reductase, in hepatitis and liver failure in infancy [PDF]
Background: A substantial group of patients with cholestatic liver disease in infancy excrete, as the major urinary bile acids, the glycine and taurine conjugates of 7alpha-hydroxy-3-oxo-4-cholenoic acid and 7alpha, 12alpha-dihydroxy-3- oxo-4-cholenoic ...

Investigating the biosynthesis of heam d1 in pseudomonas aeruginosa: a cofactor for dissimilatory nitrite reductase. [PDF]
PhDHaem d1 is a modified tetrapyrrole unique to the periplasmic enzyme nitrite reductase where it acts in catalysing the reduction of nitrite (NO2 -) to nitric oxide (NO), as part of denitrification.

Effects of myosin heavy chain (MHC) plasticity induced by HMGCoA-reductase inhibition on skeletal muscle functions. [PDF]
The rate-limiting step of cholesterol biosynthetic pathway is catalyzed by 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme reductase (HGMR), whose inhibitors, the statins, widely used in clinical practice to treat hypercholesterolemia, often cause myopathy, and ...

The methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase C677T genotype and the risk of obesity in three large population-based cohorts. [PDF]
OBJECTIVE: Epidemiological studies have shown that low folate levels are associated with a high body mass index (BMI). These findings have potentially important health implications and warrant further investigation to determine whether a causal ...
