The ferroelectric Mott-Hubbard phase of organic (TMTTF)2X conductors [PDF]
We present experimental evidences for a ferro-electric transition in the family of quasi one- dimensional conductors (TMTTF)2X. We interpret this new transition in the frame of the combined Mott-Hubbard state taking into account the double action of the ...

Structural characterization of borneol dehydrogenase from Pseudomonas sp. TCU‐HL1
The structure of a Pseudomonas borneol dehydrogenase was determined at 1.84 Å resolution. Major differences from its homologues in the C‐terminal helices and the associated loops may suggest determinants for substrate recognition.During the microbial degradation of borneol, a bicyclic plant monoterpene, it is first converted into camphor by borneol ...

A novel deamido-NAD+-binding site revealed by the trapped NAD-adenylate intermediate in the NAD+ synthetase structure [PDF]
Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) has a central role in life processes. The ubiquitous enzyme NAD+ synthetase catalyzes a key step in NAD+ biosynthesis, transforming deamido-NAD+ into NAD+ by a two-step reaction. NAD+ synthetase belongs to the amidotransferase family and has been recognized as a member of the family of N-type ATP ...

Adiabaticity and gravity theory independent conservation laws for cosmological perturbations [PDF]
We carefully study the implications of adiabaticity for the behavior of cosmological perturbations. There are essentially three similar but different definitions of non-adiabaticity: one is appropriate for a thermodynamic fluid $\delta P_{nad}$, another ...

Classically activated macrophages upregulate Warburg‐like metabolism while alternatively activated M2 macrophages utilize the Krebs cycle and oxidative phosphorylation. M2 macrophages upregulate indoleamine 2,3‐dioxygenase for de novo nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) synthesis.

Vitamins Reverse Endothelial Dysfunction Through Regulation of eNOS and NAD(P)H Oxidase Activities [PDF]
Antioxidant vitamins C and E have protective properties in genetic hypertension associated with enhanced oxidative stress. This study investigated whether vitamins C and/or E modulate vascular function by regulating enzymatic activities of endothelial ...

NAD+-dependent DNA ligases of Mycobacterium tuberculosis and Streptomyces coelicolor [PDF]
Sequencing of the genomes of Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv and Streptomyces coelicolor A3(2) identified putative genes for an NAD+-dependent DNA ligase. We have cloned both open reading frames and overexpressed the protein products in Escherichia coli.

A novel fluorescent probe for NAD-consuming enzymes [PDF]
A novel, fluorescent NAD derivative is processed as substrate by three different NAD-consuming enzymes. The new probe has been used to monitor enzymatic activity in a continuous format by changes in fluorescence and, in one case, to directly visualize ...

Impurity effect on low-temperature polarisation of the charge-density-waves in o-TaS$_3$
The temperature dependence of the low-temperature dielectric response is studied in o-TaS$_3$ samples doped by Nb, Se, and Ni and for nominally pure ones.

Pathway analysis of NAD+ metabolism [PDF]
NAD+ is well known as a crucial cofactor in the redox balance of metabolism. Moreover, NAD+ is degraded in ADP-ribosyl transfer reactions, which are important components of multitudinous signalling reactions. These include reactions linked to DNA repair and aging.
