MOLYBDENUM DOPED CARBON AEROGELS WITH CATALYTIC POTENTIAL [PDF]

, 2014
Mo-doped carbon aerogels were obtained in the polycondensation reaction of aqueous resorcinol and formaldehyde by adding Mo-salt at two different stages of the synthesis: i) to the initial sol; ii) by incipient wetting impregnation of the ...

Molybdenum’s Role as an Essential Element in Enzymes Catabolizing Redox Reactions: A Review

Biomolecules
Molybdenum (Mo) is an essential element for human life, acting as a cofactor in various enzymes crucial for metabolic homeostasis. This review provides a comprehensive insight into the latest advances in research on molybdenum-containing enzymes and ...

Maturation of molybdoenzymes and its influence on the pathogenesis of non-typeable Haemophilus influenzae

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2015
Mononuclear molybdenum enzymes of the dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO) reductase family occur exclusively in prokaryotes, and a loss of some these enzymes has been linked to a loss of bacterial virulence in several cases.

Moonlighting Arabidopsis molybdate transporter 2 family and GSH-complex formation facilitate molybdenum homeostasis

Communications Biology, 2023
Molybdenum (Mo) as essential micronutrient for plants, acts as active component of molybdenum cofactor (Moco). Core metabolic processes like nitrate assimilation or abscisic-acid biosynthesis rely on Moco-dependent enzymes. Although a family of molybdate

Tungstoenzymes: Occurrence, Catalytic Diversity and Cofactor Synthesis

Inorganics, 2020
Tungsten is the heaviest element used in biological systems. It occurs in the active sites of several bacterial or archaeal enzymes and is ligated to an organic cofactor (metallopterin or metal binding pterin; MPT) which is referred to as tungsten ...

Formate Dehydrogenase Mimics as Catalysts for Carbon Dioxide Reduction

Molecules, 2022
Formate dehydrogenases (FDH) reversibly catalyze the interconversion of CO2 to formate. They belong to the family of molybdenum and tungsten-dependent oxidoreductases. For several decades, scientists have been synthesizing structural and functional model

Four Molybdenum-Dependent Steroid C-25 Hydroxylases: Heterologous Overproduction, Role in Steroid Degradation, and Application for 25-Hydroxyvitamin D₃ Synthesis

mBio, 2018
Side chain-containing steroids are ubiquitous constituents of biological membranes that are persistent to biodegradation. Aerobic, steroid-degrading bacteria employ oxygenases for isoprenoid side chain and tetracyclic steran ring cleavage. In contrast, a

The sulfite oxidase family of molybdenum enzymes

, 2016
The sulfite oxidase enzyme superfamily is a large enzyme family of molybdenum-containing enzymes dominated by bacterial systems. Most of the characterized representatives of this enzyme family convert S- or N-containing substrates, and at least one of ...

Partial depletion of plasminogen activator inhibitor‐1 decreases subcutaneous fat cell hypertrophy and liver cholesterol in high‐fat‐fed female mice

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Obesity raises blood levels of PAI‐1, a protein linked to metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease in people with obesity. In female mice fed a high‐fat diet, partially lowering PAI‐1 led to smaller subcutaneous fat cells and lower liver cholesterol, without changing body weight or insulin sensitivity.
