Solvent‐Enabled Selective Electrochemical Decarboxylative Acetoxylation of Fmoc‐Protected Peptides

ChemElectroChem
The synthesis of peptide‐based linkers for antibody‐drug conjugates involves an oxidative decarboxylation step. Traditional Hofer–Moest electrolysis conditions are not suitable to achieve this transformation due to the presence of an oxidatively labile ...

Separation of Plant 6-Phosphogluconate Dehydrogenase (6PGDH) Isoforms by Non-denaturing Gel Electrophoresis

Bio-Protocol, 2017
6-Phosphogluconate dehydrogenase (6PGDH; EC 1.1.1.44) catalyzes the third and irreversible reaction of the pentose phosphate pathway (PPP). It carries out the oxidative decarboxylation of the 6-phosphogluconate to yield ribulose-5-phosphate, carbon ...

Primary skin fibroblasts as a model of Parkinson's disease [PDF]

, 2012
Parkinson's disease is the second most frequent neurodegenerative disorder. While most cases occur sporadic mutations in a growing number of genes including Parkin (PARK2) and PINK1 (PARK6) have been associated with the disease.

Sol–gel synthesis and thermal behavior of bioactive ferrous citrate–silica hybrid materials [PDF]

, 2018
Imbalance of the iron level in the body causes several diseases. In particular, the low level of iron, during pregnancy, is responsible for the iron deficiency anemia, and even of neurodegenerative diseases.

Biochemical Characterization and Phylogenetic Analysis of the Virulence Factor Lysine Decarboxylase From Vibrio vulnificus

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2018
Cadaverine is produced in organisms from the amino acid lysine in a decarboxylation reaction catalyzed by lysine decarboxylase (EC 4.1.1.18). The inducible lysine decarboxylase CadA plays a vital role in acid stress response for enteric bacteria.
