Mixed function oxygenases and xenobiotic detoxication/toxication systems in bivalve molluscs [PDF]
Components of a xenobiotic detoxication/toxication system involving mixed function oxygenases are present inMytilus edulis. Our paper critically reviews the recent literature on this topic which reported the apparent absence of such a system in bivalve molluscs and attempts to reconcile this viewpoint with our own findings on NADPH neotetrazolium ...

Aryl Hydrocarbon (Benzo[A]Pyrene) Hydroxylase: A Mixed-Function Oxygenase in Mouse Skin
Mouse skin contains aryl hydrocarbon (benzo[a]pyrene) hydroxylase activity which is inducible by aromatic polycyclic hydrocarbons and benzoflavones. The duration and magnitude of induction, but not the initial kinetics, are dependent on the inducer dose.

Identification of a Novel Self-Sufficient Styrene Monooxygenase from Rhodococcus opacus 1CP. [PDF]
Sequence analysis of a 9-kb genomic fragment of the actinobacterium Rhodococcus opacus 1CP led to identification of an open reading frame encoding a novel fusion protein, StyA2B, with a putative function in styrene metabolism via styrene oxide and ...

Carnitine metabolism to trimethylamine by an unusual Rieske-type oxygenase from human microbiota [PDF]
Dietary intake of L-carnitine can promote cardiovascular diseases in humans through microbial production of trimethylamine (TMA) and its subsequent oxidation to trimethylamine N-oxide (TMAO) by hepatic flavin-containing monooxygenases.

Strigolactone biosynthesis is evolutionarily conserved, regulated by phosphate starvation and contributes to resistance against phytopathogenic fungi in a moss, Physcomitrella patens [PDF]
In seed plants, strigolactones (SLs) regulate architecture and induce mycorrhizal symbiosis in response to environmental cues. SLs are formed by combined activity of the carotenoid cleavage dioxygenases (CCDs) 7 and 8 from 9-cis-β-carotene, leading to ...

Degradation of BTEX by anaerobic bacteria: physiology and application [PDF]
Pollution of the environment with aromatic hydrocarbons, such as benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene and xylene (so-called BTEX) is often observed. The cleanup of these toxic compounds has gained much attention in the last decades.
