The level of mendione redox-cycling in pancreatic β-cells is proportional to the glucose concentration: role of NADH and consequences for insulin secretion [PDF]
Pancreatic β-cells release insulin in response to elevation of glucose from basal (4–7 mM) to stimulatory (8–16 mM) levels. Metabolism of glucose by the β-cell results in the production of low levels of reactive oxygen intermediates (ROI), such as ...

Batch experiments were conducted to investigate the effects of Fe2+ and Na+ on the hydrogen (H2) production performance from three different metabolic type hydrogen-producing bacterial strains. The appropriate amount of Fe2+ significantly promoted the H2

Nitrogen Fixation and Hydrogen Metabolism in Cyanobacteria [PDF]
SUMMARYThis review summarizes recent aspects of (di)nitrogen fixation and (di)hydrogen metabolism, with emphasis on cyanobacteria. These organisms possess several types of the enzyme complexes catalyzing N2fixation and/or H2formation or oxidation, namely, two Mo nitrogenases, a V nitrogenase, and two hydrogenases. The two cyanobacterial Ni hydrogenases

Expression, purification and characterization of the HIV-1 coreceptor CCR5 and its ligand RANTES and high-pressure NMR investigation of hydrogen bonds in biomolecules [PDF]
Nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy is a very versatile technique for the investigation of biomolecular structures and dynamics. In this thesis, solution and solid state NMR methods have been applied to study a membrane protein and its interactions ...

Causation of human ulcerative colitis: A lead from an animal model that mirrors human disease
Most models of experimental colitis do not replicate human ulcerative colitis and do not help in defining the causation of human ulcerative colitis. Inducing pantothenic acid deficiency in pigs produces an ideal model in terms of extent, histology, and ...

Effect of CO Transfer on Hydrogen Production By Carboxydotrophic Archaeon Thermococcus Onnurineus NA1 [PDF]
In recent years biological conversion of syngas or steel mill gas containing carbon monoxide (CO) has been receiving much attention since it offers an exciting opportunity to produce fuels and chemicals from non-food and non-fossil resources.

Enzymes of hydrogen metabolism in Pyrococcus furiosus [PDF]
The genome of Pyrococcus furiosus contains the putative mbhABCDEFGHIJKLMN operon for a 14‐subunit transmembrane complex associated with a Ni–Fe hydrogenase. Ten ORFs (mbhA–I and mbhM) encode hydrophobic, membrane‐spanning subunits. Four ORFs (mbhJKL and mbhN) encode putative soluble proteins.

Bio-hydrogen production by continuous culture of the hyperthermophilic archaeon from carbon monoxide [PDF]
The hyperthermophilic archaeon, Thermococcus onnurineus NA1 was known for a good bio-hydrogen producer through the water-gas shift (WGS) reaction (CO + H2O → CO2 + H2).

Interrelation of potassium and hydrogen ion gradients in metabolic alkalosis [PDF]
To study the interrelationships of potassium and hydrogen ion intra- and extracellularly, as an extension of previous investigations on gastric alkalosis, metabolic alkalosis was produced in dogs by dietary K depletion, NaHCO3 loading, and ...
