Removal of Zearalenone from Degummed Corn Oil by Hydrolase on a Batch-Refining Unit
The removal of zearalenone (ZEN) from degummed corn oil (DCO) using hydrolase on a batch-refining unit was studied. According to single-factor and response surface experiments, the optimum technological conditions for reaching the maximum degradation ...

Link between allosteric signal transduction and functional dynamics in a multi-subunit enzyme: S-adenosylhomocysteine hydrolase [PDF]
S-adenosylhomocysteine hydrolase (SAHH), a cellular enzyme that plays a key role in methylation reactions including those required for maturation of viral mRNA, is an important drug target in the discovery of antiviral agents. While targeting the active site is a straightforward strategy of enzyme inhibition, evidences of allosteric modulation of ...

Interlinked GTPase cascades provide a motif for both robust switches and oscillators [PDF]
GTPases regulate a wide range of cellular processes, such as intracellular vesicular transport, signal transduction, and protein translation. These hydrolase enzymes operate as biochemical switches by toggling between an active guanosine triphosphate (GTP)-bound state and an inactive guanosine diphosphate (GDP)-bound state.

MacroD1 Is a Promiscuous ADP-Ribosyl Hydrolase Localized to Mitochondria
MacroD1 is a macrodomain containing protein that has mono-ADP-ribose hydrolase enzymatic activity toward several ADP-ribose adducts. Dysregulation of MacroD1 expression has been shown to be associated with the pathogenesis of several forms of cancer.

Identification of tunnels as in potato hydrolases [PDF]
Enzymes with an active center hidden in the middle of the molecule in a tunnel-like cavity constitute an interesting object of analysis due to the highly specialized environment for the course of the catalytic reaction. Identifying the tunnel is a challenge in itself.
