Lung Injury and Oxidoreductases
Acute lung injury represents a wide spectrum of pathologic processes, the most severe end of the spectrum being the acute respiratory distress syndrome. Reactive oxygen intermediates have been implicated as important in the pathobiochemistry of acute lung injury.

Oxidoreductases on their way to industrial biotransformations
Fungi produce heme-containing peroxidases and peroxygenases, flavin-containing oxidases and dehydrogenases, and different copper-containing oxidoreductases involved in the biodegradation of lignin and other recalcitrant compounds. Heme peroxidases comprise the classical ligninolytic peroxidases and the new dye-decolorizing peroxidases, while heme ...

Enzymatic Bioprospecting of Fungi Isolated from a Tropical Rainforest in Mexico
The humid tropical environment provides an ideal place for developing a high diversity of plants; this is why it is an interesting site for the enzymatic bioprospecting of fungi that are responsible for the recycling of organic matter in an efficient and

Functional design of bacterial superoxide:quinone oxidoreductase [PDF]
AbstractThe superoxide anion - molecular oxygen reduced by a single electron - is produced in large amounts by enzymatic and adventitious reactions and can perform a range of cellular functions, including bacterial warfare and iron uptake, signalling and host immune response in eukaryotes.

Clinical evaluation of oxidative stress in patients with diabetes mellitus type II: Impact of acute exercise [PDF]
Background/Aim. Exercise is a well recognized model of oxidative stress and, also, an important tool in diabetes management. The aim of our study was to evaluate oxidative stress in patients with diabetes mellitus type 2 and to determine influence of ...

Applications of Oxidoreductases
Oxidoreductases comprise of a large group of enzymes catalyzing the transfer of electrons from an electron donor to an electron acceptor molecule, commonly taking nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADP) or nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) as cofactors.
