The most elaborate known example of β‐oxidation‐like pathway recruitment in fungi is reported, involving a 10‐step oxidative chain‐shortening cascade catalyzed by five dedicated enzymes to generate the pharmacophore of mycophenolic acid (MPA)—a novel clinical immunosuppressant. Our findings illustrate how nature repurposes catabolic enzymes for complex

FK 506 pre-treatment is associated with reduced levels of tumor necrosis factor and interleukin 6 following hepatic ischemia/reperfusion [PDF]
Using a rat model, the effect of pre-treatment with FK 506 on hepatic ischemia/reperfusion injury was investigated. All control animals died within 72 h of the ischemia/reperfusion injury.

Simplified schematic for generation of the subcutaneous air pouch model in the rodent. On day 0 and 4, air is injected into the subcutaneous space on the dorsal surface of the rodent to generate a cavity analogous to a synovial joint. On day 6, monosodium urate (MSU) or calcium pyrophosphate (CPP) crystals are injected into the pouch to stimulate ...

Basic surface features of nuclear FKBPs facilitate chromatin binding
The nucleoplasmin family of histone chaperones is identified by a pentamer-forming domain and multiple acidic tracts that mediate histone binding and chaperone activity.

Protein disulfide isomerase a multifunctional protein with multiple physiological roles
Protein disulfide isomerase (PDI), is a member of the thioredoxin superfamily of redox proteins. PDI has three catalytic activities including, thiol-disulfide oxireductase, disulfide isomerase and redox-dependent chaperone.

Liver transplantation for type IV glycogen storage disease [PDF]
TYPE IV glycogen storage disease is a rare autosomal recessive disorder (also called Andersen's disease1 or amylopectinosis) in which the activity of branching enzyme alpha-1, 4-glucan: alpha-1, 4-glucan 6-glucosyltransferase is deficient in the liver as

Biosynthese des Rotalgen‐Diterpens Peyssonnosol in Bakterien
Zwei Terpensynthasen aus Anaerolineae‐Bakterien katalysieren die Biosynthese von Peyssonnosen‐artigen Diterpenen aus Rotalgen. Ortsgerichtete Mutagenese ermöglichte einen partiellen Funktionswechsel, der zur Bildung zusätzlicher Nebenprodukte führte.
