Cyclic AMP Receptor Protein from Yeast Mitochondria [PDF]
We have identified and characterized a cyclic AMP receptor protein in mitochondria of the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The binding is specific for cyclic nucleotides, particularly for cyclic AMP which is bound with high affinity (Kd of 10(-9) M) at 1 ...

Ferroptosis is a recently discovered form of regulated cell death characterized by its distinct dependence on iron and the peroxidation of lipids within cellular membranes. Ferroptosis plays a crucial role in physiological and pathological situations and

N-acetylcysteine serves as substrate of 3-mercaptopyruvate sulfurtransferase and stimulates sulfide metabolism in colon cancer cells [PDF]
Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) is an endogenously produced signaling molecule. The enzymes 3-mercaptopyruvate sulfurtransferase (MST), partly localized in mitochondria, and the inner mitochondrial membrane-associated sulfide:quinone oxidoreductase (SQR), besides

Screening a transposon‐mutagenized soybean population led to the discovery of a recessively inherited chlorotic phenotype. This “y24” phenotype results in smaller stature, weaker stems, and a smaller root system. Genome sequencing identified 15 candidate

Origin and Evolution of Flavin-Based Electron Bifurcating Enzymes
Twelve evolutionarily unrelated oxidoreductases form enzyme complexes that catalyze the simultaneous coupling of exergonic and endergonic oxidation–reduction reactions to circumvent thermodynamic barriers and minimize free energy loss in a process known ...

Elucidation of xenobiotic metabolism pathways in human skin and human skin models by proteomic profiling [PDF]
Human skin has the capacity to metabolise foreign chemicals (xenobiotics), but knowledge of the various enzymes involved is incomplete. A broad-based unbiased proteomics approach was used to describe the profile of xenobiotic metabolising enzymes present

The oxygen-independent metabolism of cyclic monoterpenes in Castellaniella defragrans 65Phen [PDF]
BACKGROUND: The facultatively anaerobic betaproteobacterium Castellaniella defragrans 65Phen utilizes acyclic, monocyclic and bicyclic monoterpenes as sole carbon source under oxic as well as anoxic conditions.

Electrodes modified with lipid membranes to study quinone oxidoreductases
Quinone oxidoreductases are a class of membrane enzymes that catalyse the oxidation or reduction of membrane-bound quinols/quinones. The conversion of quinone/quinol by these enzymes is difficult to study because of the hydrophobic nature of the enzymes ...

A comprehensive phylogenetic analysis of the core subunits of succinate:quinone oxidoreductases and quinol:fumarate oxidoreductases is performed, showing that the classification of the enzymes as type A to E based on the type of the membrane anchor fully correlates with the specific characteristics of the two core subunits.
