High-throughput screening of dipeptide utilization mediated by the ABC transporter DppBCDF and its substrate-binding proteins DppA1-A5 in Pseudomonas aeruginosa. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 In this study, we show that the dppBCDF operon of Pseudomonas aeruginosa PA14 encodes an ABC transporter responsible for the utilization of di/tripeptides.

Ornithine Carbamoyltransferase from Halobacterium salinarium [PDF]
European Journal of Biochemistry, 1972 The enzymatic properties of purified ornithine carbamoyltransferase from Halobacterium salinarium have been studied and compared with those of the enzyme from non-halophilic organisms, and with those of other enzymes from halophilic organisms. The enzyme is stable and active in high concentrations of NaCl, KCl, RbCl and CsCl as are other enzymes

Aberrant expression and distribution of enzymes of the urea cycle and other ammonia metabolizing pathways in dogs with congenital portosystemic shunts. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 The detoxification of ammonia occurs mainly through conversion of ammonia to urea in the liver via the urea cycle and glutamine synthesis. Congenital portosystemic shunts (CPSS) in dogs cause hyperammonemia eventually leading to hepatic encephalopathy ...

Comparative proteomic analysis of Streptococcus suis biofilms and planktonic cells that identified biofilm infection-related immunogenic proteins. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 Streptococcus suis (SS) is a zoonotic pathogen that causes severe disease symptoms in pigs and humans. Biofilms of SS bind to extracellular matrix proteins in both endothelial and epithelial cells and cause persistent infections.
