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.

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.

A Hydrolase Produced by Rhodococcus erythropolis HQ Is Responsible for the Detoxification of Zearalenone

Toxins, 2023
Zearalenone (ZEN), an estrogenic mycotoxin, is one of the prevalent contaminants found in food and feed, posing risks to human and animal health. In this study, we isolated a ZEN-degrading strain from soil and identified it as Rhodococcus erythropolis HQ.

Removal of Zearalenone from Degummed Corn Oil by Hydrolase on a Batch-Refining Unit

Foods, 2022
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 ...

Inhibition of the soluble epoxide hydrolase promotes albuminuria in mice with progressive renal disease [PDF]

, 2010
Epoxyeicotrienoic acids (EETs) are cytochrome P450-dependent anti-hypertensive and anti-inflammatory derivatives of arachidonic acid, which are highly abundant in the kidney and considered reno-protective.

Transgenic plant-produced hydrolytic enzymes and the potential of insect gut-derived hydrolases for biofuels

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2016
Various perennial C4 grass species have tremendous potential for use as lignocellulosic biofuel feedstocks. Currently available grasses require costly pre-treatment and exogenous hydrolytic enzyme application to break down complex cell wall polymers ...

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 ...

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,
