Impact of acute exercise on antioxidant enzymes activity and lipid status in blood of patients with hypertension [PDF]

Vojnosanitetski Pregled, 2009
Background/Aim. Many studies support the hypothesis that oxidative stress is involved in the pathogenic process of a variety of diseases including hypertension. In humans, hypertension is also considered a state of oxidative stress that can contribute to

Photoprotective role of NADPH:protochlorophyllide oxidoreductase A [PDF]

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2008
A homology model of NADPH:protochlorophyllide (Pchlide) oxidoreductase A (POR; E.C. 1.3.33.1) of barley is developed and verified by site-directed mutagenesis. PORA is considered a globular protein consisting of nine α-helices and seven β-strands.

Breaking the Selectivity Barrier of Single‐Atom Nanozymes Through Out‐of‐Plane Ligand Coordination

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Here, Ru SAzyme with out‐of‐plane chlorine ligands is reported as a monofunctional, high‐performance peroxidase‐like nanozyme. Incorporating out‐of‐plane ligand coordination emulates enzyme selectivity and regulates reaction pathways for an identical substrate.

Spatial Coordination Structure‐Driven Enzyme‐Like Selectivity in Single‐Atom Nanozymes

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Sun et al. reviews recent progress in enhancing the enzyme‐like catalytic selectivity of SAzymes through the rational design of their spatial coordination structures. They emphasize the structure‐activity relationships of various attributes of these coordination structures in promoting selective catalytic behavior, the strategic design of coordination ...

Insect‐Microbe‐Based Laccase: Untapped Natural Resource for Industrial and Biotechnological Applications

Advanced Sustainable Systems, EarlyView.
The insect‐microbe interplay fulfills a key ecological role involving the degradation of ligninocellulose biomass. This is coordinated by the secretion of different kinds of proteins, of which ligninolytic enzymes, such as laccases (Lacs), are of prime importance.

Challenges and perspectives in using unspecific peroxygenases for organic synthesis

Frontiers in Catalysis
In the past 20 years, unspecific peroxygenases (UPOs) have emerged as promising biocatalysts for various organic transformations. Particularly, we have witnessed great attention being paid to the screening of new enzymes and expansion of the substrates ...

Systematic Targeting of GD2‐Positive Neuroblastoma Tumors With a Photooncolytic Phage Nanovector Platform

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A tumor‐penetrating photooncolytic phage is developed for selectively targeting and delivering photosensitizers to GD2‐positive Neuroblastoma cells. Upon light activation, it precisely induces oncolysis of GD2‐positive cells with no effect on GD2‐negative ones.

GbSER02 Interacts With GhVOZ1 to Promote Fiber Elongation by Modulating Gibberellin Synthesis in Cotton

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
GbSER02 with a single base change (SNP517G) encodes normal serpin protein and interacts with transcription factor VOZ1 to alleviate the repression of VOZ1 on GA3ox1 and promote GA3 biosynthesis. Further, GA3 induces the expression of cell wall loosening‐related genes and decreases flavonoid content, ultimately facilitating fiber cell elongation in ...
