Recent Advances in Top‐Down Proteomics for Single‐Cell Research

open access: yesMass Spectrometry Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Individual cells have distinctive molecular characteristics, including biologically relevant proteoforms. Although single‐cell (SC) molecular omics offer unprecedented insights into cellular heterogeneity and function, the characterization of proteoforms in SCs remains an uncharted territory.

Movement Disorders Associated with 22q11.2 Microdeletion: A Scoping Review

open access: yesMovement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Movement disorders have recently emerged as important neurologic manifestations of the 22q11.2 microdeletion that affects nearly one in every 2000 live births. Objective We aimed to map the existing evidence regarding the spectrum, diagnosis and treatment, and etiopathogenesis of movement disorders associated with 22q11.2 ...

Continuous Subcutaneous Versus Intestinal Levodopa Infusion for Parkinson's Disease: A Real‐World, Monocentric, Observational Study and Critical Review

open access: yesMovement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Subcutaneous foslevodopa‐foscarbidopa (SCFF) is a novel, non‐surgical dopaminergic infusion therapy for better controlling motor fluctuations in advanced Parkinson's disease (PD). However, there are scarce real‐world data on efficacy, adverse events and comparisons with other infusion strategies. Objectives Here, we aimed to provide

METHYLATION PHARMACOGENETICS: Catechol O-Methyltransferase, Thiopurine Methyltransferase, and Histamine N-Methyltransferase

Annual Review of Pharmacology and Toxicology, 1999
▪ Abstract  Methyl conjugation is an important pathway in the biotransformation of many exogenous and endogenous compounds. Pharmacogenetic studies of methyltransferase enzymes have resulted in the identification and characterization of functionally important common genetic polymorphisms for catechol O-methyltransferase, thiopurine methyltransferase ...

GLYCINE METHYLTRANSFERASE

Canadian Journal of Biochemistry and Physiology, 1963
The supernatant fraction of liver homogenate brings about the methylation of glycine by S-adenosylmethionine. The secondary amine formed in the reaction appears to be sarcosine. This conclusion is based on (I) the stoichiometry of the reaction, and (II) radioautography of chromatograms of the incubation products. The enzyme, glycine N-methyltransferase,

DNA methyltransferases

Current Opinion in Cell Biology, 1994
Mammals have long been known to tag their DNA by the addition of methyl groups to cytosine residues. Only quite recently, however, has the functional significance of DNA methylation established a firm footing. Evidence now indicates that DNA methylation is essential for development, and is involved in both programmed and ectopic gene inactivation ...

Methyltransferase DNMT3B in leukemia

Leukemia & Lymphoma, 2019
DNA methyltransferases (DNMTs) are highly conserved DNA-modifying enzymes that play important roles in epigenetic regulation and they are involved in cell proliferation, differentiation, and apoptosis. In mammalian cells, three active DNMTs have been identified: DNMT1 acts as a maintenance methyltransferase to replicate preexisting methylation patterns,

EUKARYOTIC CYTOSINE METHYLTRANSFERASES

Annual Review of Biochemistry, 2005
▪ Abstract  Large-genome eukaryotes use heritable cytosine methylation to silence promoters, especially those associated with transposons and imprinted genes. Cytosine methylation does not reinforce or replace ancestral gene regulation pathways but instead endows methylated genomes with the ability to repress specific promoters in a manner that is ...

Phenol-O-methyltransferase

Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Enzymology, 1968
An enzyme that transfers the methyl group of S-adenosylmethionine to phenol to form anisole is described. The enzyme is highly localized in the microsomes of the liver and lung of mammals and is also present in other tissues. A variety of simple alkyl-, methoxy- and halophenols can serve as substrates for the phenol-O-methylating enzyme.

The phospholipid methyltransferases in yeast

Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Lipids and Lipid Metabolism, 1997
In fungal microorganisms including fission yeast, Schizosaccharomyces pombe and baker's yeast, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, two enzymes are required to catalyze the synthesis of phosphatidylcholine (PC) from phosphatidylethanolamine (PE). The genes encoding the class I and class II phospholipid N-methyltransferases (PLMTs) have been cloned from both ...
