Vitamin B12 - do we need it? [PDF]
Vitamin B12 is a name for a number of chemicals based on the structure of Corrin's rings. Its main source in the diet are animal foods, in particular: meat, fish, dairy products and eggs. Plant products are usually low in cobalamin.

The NADPH oxidase NOX4 regulates redox and metabolic homeostasis preventing HCC progression
Loss of NOX4 in HCC tumor cells induces metabolic reprogramming in a Nrf2/MYC‐dependent manner to promote HCC progression. Abstract Background and Aims The NADPH oxidase NOX4 plays a tumor‐suppressor function in HCC. Silencing NOX4 confers higher proliferative and migratory capacity to HCC cells and increases their in vivo tumorigenic potential in ...

Versatile enzymology and heterogeneous phenotypes in cobalamin complementation type C disease
Summary: Nutritional deficiency and genetic errors that impair the transport, absorption, and utilization of vitamin B12 (B12) lead to hematological and neurological manifestations.

The micronutrient vitamin B12 is an essential cofactor for two enzymes: methionine synthase, which plays a key role in the one-carbon cycle; and methylmalonyl-CoA mutase, an enzyme in a pathway that breaks down branched-chain amino acids and odd-chain ...

Nitric Oxide Inhibits Mammalian Methylmalonyl-CoA Mutase [PDF]
Methylmalonyl-CoA mutase is a key enzyme in intermediary metabolism, and children deficient in enzyme activity have severe metabolic acidosis. We found that nitric oxide (NO) inhibits methylmalonyl-CoA mutase activity in rodent cell extracts. The inhibition of enzyme activity occurred within minutes and was not prevented by thiols, suggesting that ...

Studies on Methylmalonyl-CoA Mutase from Propionibacterium shermanii [PDF]
1 Methylmalonyl-CoA mutase from Propionibacterium shermanii has been purified according to a modification of the method described by Wood et al. in 1964. 2 The final mutase preparation was homogeneous in the ultracentrifuge showing the following hydrodynamic properties: 8020,W= 7.25 S, D020,w= 5.71 F.

Gene Frequencies of Methylmalonic Acidemia Disease at the Global Level and Compiling the Pathogenic Mutations in the Iranian Population [PDF]
Background: Methylmalonic acidemia (MMA) is a rare autosomal recessive metabolic disorder resulting from a genetic defect in methylmalonyl-CoA mutase (MCM) or a defect in the biosynthesis of its cofactor, adenosyl-cobalamin (AdoCbl).
