Banana skin: a novel material for a low-cost production of laccase [PDF]
Laccases (benzenodiol: oxygen oxidoreductases; EC 1.10.3.2) are multicopper oxidases of wide substrate specificity mainly found in white-rot fungi, which are the only microorganisms able to degrade the whole wood components, but they are also expressed in bacteria and higher plants. Laccases are used currently in biotechnological processes because this

Effects of diamagnetic levitation on bacterial growth in liquid [PDF]
Diamagnetic levitation is a technique that uses a strong, spatially-varying magnetic field to levitate diamagnetic materials, such as water and biological cells. This technique has the potential to simulate aspects of weightlessness, on the Earth.

Deprenyl, an old drug with new anticancer potential: Mini review [PDF]
The anticancer potential of monoamine oxidase (MAO) was observed in pre-clinical assays conducted with cell cultures and animals. L-Deprenyl (DEP) causes apoptosis in melanoma, leukemia and mammary cells. High-dose DEP has shown toxicity in mammary and pituitary cancers, as well as in monoblastic leukemia, in rats.

Reaction Engineering and Comparison of Electroenzymatic and Enzymatic ATP Regeneration Systems [PDF]
Adenosine-5'-triphosphate (ATP) plays a crucial role in many biocatalytic reactions and its regeneration can influence the performance of a related enzymatic reaction significantly. Here, we established an electrochemically coupled ATP regeneration by pyruvate oxidase and acetate kinase (ACK) for the phosphorylation of mevalonate catalyzed by ...

Substrate specificity of amine oxidase [PDF]
The tyramine oxidase activity of liver extracts found by Hare (1), the aliphatic amine oxidase activity of brain, kidney, and liver extracts observed by Pugh and Quastel (2), and the adrenalin oxidase activity of similar extracts noted by Blaschko ...

The small protein CydX is required for function of cytochrome bd oxidase in Brucella abortus. [PDF]
A large number of hypothetical genes potentially encoding small proteins of unknown function are annotated in the Brucella abortus genome. Individual deletion of 30 of these genes identified four mutants, in BAB1_0355, BAB2_0726, BAB2_0470, and BAB2_0450

Functional Organization of Visual Cortex in the Owl Monkey [PDF]
In this study, we compared the organization of orientation preference in visual areas V1, V2, and V3. Within these visual areas, we also quantified the relationship between orientation preference and cytochrome oxidase (CO) staining patterns. V1 maps of
