HYDROLASE ACTIVITIES IN BRAIN OF NEUROLOGICAL MUTANTS: CEREBROSIDE GALACTOSIDASE, NITROPHENYL GALACTOSIDE HYDROLASE, NITROPHENYL LUCOSIDE HYDROLASE AND SULPHATASE1 [PDF]
Journal of Neurochemistry, 1969 Abstract— The brains of 17‐day‐old quaking and jimpy mice were compared with those of the corresponding normal phenotypes. The concentrations of cerebroside and sulphatide were found to be markedly lower in the affected mutants, while the relative amounts of ceramide and free fatty acid appeared normal.

Induction and Repression of Hydrolase Genes in Aspergillus oryzae
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2021 The filamentous fungus Aspergillus oryzae, also known as yellow koji mold, produces high levels of hydrolases such as amylolytic and proteolytic enzymes. This property of producing large amounts of hydrolases is one of the reasons why A.

Catalysis by nucleoside hydrolases [PDF]
Current Opinion in Structural Biology, 2003 Nucleoside hydrolases cleave the N-glycosidic bond of ribonucleosides. Because of their vital role in the protozoan purine salvage pathway, nucleoside hydrolases from parasitic protozoa in particular have been studied extensively by X-ray crystallography, kinetic methods and site-directed mutagenesis.

Soluble Epoxide Hydrolase Dimerization Is Required for Hydrolase Activity [PDF]
Journal of Biological Chemistry, 2013 Soluble epoxide hydrolase (sEH) plays a key role in the metabolic conversion of the protective eicosanoid 14,15-epoxyeicosatrienoic acid to 14,15-dihydroxyeicosatrienoic acid. Accordingly, inhibition of sEH hydrolase activity has been shown to be beneficial in multiple models of cardiovascular diseases, thus identifying sEH as a valuable therapeutic ...

Predicting Bacteriophage Enzymes and Hydrolases by Using Combined Features
Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2020 Bacteriophage is a type of virus that could infect the host bacteria. They have been applied in the treatment of pathogenic bacterial infection. Phage enzymes and hydrolases play the most important role in the destruction of bacterial cells.

Metabolite Damage and Damage Control in a Minimal Genome
mBio, 2022 Analysis of the genes retained in the minimized Mycoplasma JCVI-Syn3A genome established that systems that repair or preempt metabolite damage are essential to life. Several genes known to have such functions were identified and experimentally validated,

Lysosomal hydrolases of the epidermis.
British Journal of Dermatology, 1975 Four distinct peptide hydrolases (EC 3-4) have been characterized in guinea-pig epidermis; these are cathepsin B1, cathepsin C, cathepsin D and arylamidase. Their properties are consistent with those of lysosomal enzymes. Cathepsin E was not detected.
