Cellulase-Xylanase Synergy in Designer Cellulosomes for Enhanced Degradation of a Complex Cellulosic Substrate

open access: yesmBio, 2010
Designer cellulosomes are precision-engineered multienzyme complexes in which the molecular architecture and enzyme content are exquisitely controlled.

Knockout studies reveal an important role of Plasmodium lipoic acid protein ligase A1 for asexual blood stage parasite survival. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2009
Lipoic acid (LA) is a dithiol-containing cofactor that is essential for the function of alpha-keto acid dehydrogenase complexes. LA acts as a reversible acyl group acceptor and 'swinging arm' during acyl-coenzyme A formation.

Information Transfer in Multienzyme Complexes [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Biochemistry, 1997
Oxidized phosphoribulokinase is almost inactive in its isolated state but becomes active when associated with glyceraldehyde‐3‐phosphate dehydrogenase. There is therefore an information transfer that takes place between these two enzymes. However, when the complex dissociates, free oxidized phosphoribulokinase is even more active than when it is ...

Composition and conservation of the mRNA-degrading machinery in bacteria

open access: yesJournal of Biomedical Science, 2011
RNA synthesis and decay counteract each other and therefore inversely regulate gene expression in pro- and eukaryotic cells by controlling the steady-state level of individual transcripts.

Characterization of the mycobacterial acyl-CoA carboxylase holo complexes reveals their functional expansion into amino acid catabolism.

open access: yesPLoS Pathogens, 2015
Biotin-mediated carboxylation of short-chain fatty acid coenzyme A esters is a key step in lipid biosynthesis that is carried out by multienzyme complexes to extend fatty acids by one methylene group.

The glycine decarboxylase complex multienzyme family in Populus [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Botany, 2007
In plants, the glycine decarboxylase complex (GDC) cooperates with serine hydroxymethyltransferase (SHMT) to mediate photorespiratory glycine-serine interconversion. GDC is also postulated to be an integral component of one-carbon (C1) metabolism in heterotrophic tissues, although molecular evidence in plants is scarce.

Cellular localization of the hybrid pyruvate/2-oxoglutarate dehydrogenase complex in the actinobacterium Corynebacterium glutamicum

open access: yesMicrobiology Spectrum, 2023
For many bacterial proteins, specific localizations within the cell have been demonstrated, but enzymes involved in central metabolism are usually considered to be homogenously distributed within the cytoplasm. Here, we provide an example for a spatially

Assembly of Xylanases into Designer Cellulosomes Promotes Efficient Hydrolysis of the Xylan Component of a Natural Recalcitrant Cellulosic Substrate

open access: yesmBio, 2011
In nature, the complex composition and structure of the plant cell wall pose a barrier to enzymatic degradation. Nevertheless, some anaerobic bacteria have evolved for this purpose an intriguing, highly efficient multienzyme complex, the cellulosome ...
