Studies on Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide Phosphate Reductase of Spinach Chloroplasts
The enzyme NADP+ reductase from spinach chloroplasts was studied by various methods of enzymology and protein chemistry. Polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis in sodium dodecyl sulfate showed the polypeptide molecular weight to be 37,000, a value which is almost exactly the same as the minimum molecular weight per FAD, so the enzyme has one FAD per ...

Identification, Heterologous Expression, and Functional Characterization of Bacillus subtilis YutF, a HAD Superfamily 5'-Nucleotidase with Broad Substrate Specificity. [PDF]
5'-nucleotidases (EC 3.1.3.5) catalyze the hydrolytic dephosphorylation of 5'-ribonucleotides and 5'-deoxyribonucleotides as well as complex nucleotides, such as uridine 5'-diphosphoglucose (UDP-glucose), nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide and flavin ...

Detailed temporal modelling of carbon and water fluxes from pastures in New Zealand : case study of an experimental dairy farm in the Waikato region : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Soil Science, Massey University, Palmerston North, New Zealand [PDF]
The terrestrial biosphere is an important pool of carbon, with its size governed by the opposing processes of CO2 uptake through photosynthesis and release through respiration.

Fundamentals of Reductive Stress [PDF]
Reductive stress is a cellular insult stemming from the overgeneration of reducing equivalents and heightened antioxidant potential within the body. Maintaining redox homeostasis necessitates a delicate balance between oxidant and antioxidant production.

Is there an interplay between adherence to mediterranean diet, antioxidant status, and vascular disease in atrial fibrillation patients? [PDF]
Mediterranean Diet (Med-Diet) is associated with reduced incidence of vascular events (VEs) in atrial fibrillation (AF), but the mechanism accounting for its beneficial effect is only partially known.

Klf4-Sirt3/Pparα-Lcad pathway contributes to high phosphate-induced lipid degradation
Background Phosphorus commonly reduces lipid deposition in the vertebrates. However, the underlying mechanisms involved in the process remain unclear. Methods Yellow catfish were given three experimental diets with dietary phosphate levels of 3.22, 6.47 ...
