Comparison of the Recombinant Glucosephosphate Isomerase from Different Zymodemes of Entamoeba histolytica with Their Natural Counterparts by Isoenzyme Electrophoresis [PDF]

open access: yesIranian Journal of Public Health, 2005
Entamoeba histolytica is the etiological agent of invasive amoebiasis, the third leading parasitic cause of mortality in the world. Our aim was to find a molecular correlation between a glucosephosphate isomerase zymodeme analyses in E.

Glutathione Transferases as Efficient Ketosteroid Isomerases

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Biosciences, 2021
In addition to their well-established role in detoxication, glutathione transferases (GSTs) have other biological functions. We are focusing on the ketosteroid isomerase activity, which appears to contribute to steroid hormone biosynthesis in mammalian ...

Optimization of Fermentation Conditions and Media for Production of Glucose Isomerase from Bacillus megaterium Using Response Surface Methodology

open access: yesScientifica, 2018
Glucose isomerase is an enzyme widely used in food industry for producing high-fructose corn syrup. Many microbes, including Bacillus megaterium, have been found to be able to produce glucose isomerase. However, the number of studies of glucose isomerase

Temperature Fluctuations Affected the Activity of Triosephosphate Isomerase by Regulating Phosphorylation and Nitrosylation [PDF]

open access: yesShipin Kexue
In this study, triosephosphate isomerase was incubated in the presence of exogenous protein kinase A and S-nitrosoglutathione to elucidate the regulatory effects of phosphorylation and nitrosylation on the enzyme’s activity as a function of incubation ...

Structure-based directed evolution improves S. cerevisiae growth on xylose by influencing in vivo enzyme performance

open access: yesBiotechnology for Biofuels, 2020
Background Efficient bioethanol production from hemicellulose feedstocks by Saccharomyces cerevisiae requires xylose utilization. Whereas S. cerevisiae does not metabolize xylose, engineered strains that express xylose isomerase can metabolize xylose by ...

Production of a recombinant membrane protein in an Escherichia coli strain for the whole cell biosynthesis of phenylacetic acids

open access: yesBiotechnology Reports, 2015
The styrene oxide isomerase (SOI) represents a membrane-bound enzyme of the microbial styrene degradation pathway and has been discussed as promising biocatalyst. It catalyzes the isomerization of styrene oxide to phenylacetaldehyde. In this study a styC

Protein disulphide isomerase [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Biology, 2003
What is it? Protein disulphide isomerase is an enzyme with two interrelated activities: as an oxidoreductase, it can catalyse the formation, reduction and isomerisation of disulphide bonds; and as a polypeptide binding protein, it can function as a molecular chaperone which assists the folding of polypeptides.

Evaluation of NV556, a Novel Cyclophilin Inhibitor, as a Potential Antifibrotic Compound for Liver Fibrosis

open access: yesCells, 2019
Hepatic fibrosis can result as a pathological response to nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). Cirrhosis, the late stage of fibrosis, has been linked to poor survival and an increased risk of developing hepatocellular carcinoma, with limited treatment ...
