The specialization of the two ornithine carbamoyltransferases of Pseudomonas
The two ornithine carbamoyltransferases (carbamoylphosphate:l-ornithine carbamoyltransferase, EC 2.1.3.3) of Pseudomonas are integrated into different metabolic sequences. This integration appears both in their regulation and in their activities.

A molecular mechanism for eflornithine resistance in African trypanosomes [PDF]
Human African trypanosomiasis, endemic to sub-Saharan Africa, is invariably fatal if untreated. Its causative agent is the protozoan parasite Trypanosoma brucei.

Optimization of CEST MRI Reporter Protein Design Using Cation‐Pi Networks
A novel engineering approach can produce reporter proteins for cell and viral therapy tracking with unique magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) signatures, detectable with chemical exchange saturation transfer (CEST). We discover how cation‐π interactions between amino acid groups can help us fine‐tune magnetic resonance properties for noninvasive ...

Visualizing Specific Tubulin Isotypes and Pathogenic Variants in Cellular Microtubule Arrays
ABSTRACT Eukaryotic cells depend on dynamic microtubule arrays to execute a wide range of functions vital for life. These microtubule filaments are formed through the polymerization of α/β‐tubulin proteins, which can be generated from numerous tubulin genes, or isotypes.

Enhanced S-cone syndrome or gyrate atrophy – A diagnostic dilemma spanning two decades
A young girl with enhanced S-cone syndrome (ESCS) and raised serum ornithine was diagnosed as gyrate atrophy (GA) for 2 decades. She had presented with nyctalopia. Clinical examination revealed bilateral, symmetrical scalloped chorioretinal atrophy (CRA),

Systematic pathway engineering of Corynebacterium glutamicum S9114 for l-ornithine production
Background l-Ornithine is a non-protein amino acid with extensive applications in medicine and the food industry. Currently, l-ornithine production is based on microbial fermentation, and few microbes are used for producing l-ornithine owing to ...

Inherited metabolic epilepsies–established diseases, new approaches
Abstract Inherited metabolic epilepsies (IMEs) represent the inherited metabolic disorders (IMDs) in which epilepsy is a prevailing component, often determining other neurodevelopmental outcomes associated with the disorder. The different metabolic pathways affected by individual IMEs are the basis of their rarity and heterogeneity.

ABSTRACT Citrulline is the main precursor of a carcinogen compound ethyl carbamate (EC) in soy sauce. Accumulation of citrulline is mainly related to metabolism of arginine by Pediococcus acidilactici via the arginine deiminase (ADI) pathway during soy sauce fermentation.

Leishmania donovani: cellular control of ornithine decarboxylase in promastigotes
Ornithine decarboxylase, a key enzyme in polyamine biosynthesis, is essential for normal cell growth and proliferation. Furthermore, the inhibition of this enzyme is a potential way of controlling such growth.
