Heme oxygenase-1 is critical for iron recycling during red blood cell turnover, whereas its impact on steady-state erythropoiesis and red blood cell lifespan is not known. We show here that in 8- to 14-week old mice, heme oxygenase-1 deficiency adversely

The widespread use of plastics has led to their increasing presence in the environment and subsequent pollution. Some microorganisms degrade plastics in natural ecosystems and the associated metabolic pathways can be studied to understand the degradation

Heme Oxygenase-1 Signaling and Redox Homeostasis in Physiopathological Conditions
Heme-oxygenase is the enzyme responsible for degradation of endogenous iron protoporphyirin heme; it catalyzes the reaction’s rate-limiting step, resulting in the release of carbon monoxide (CO), ferrous ions, and biliverdin (BV), which is successively ...

The Diverse Roles of Heme Oxygenase-1 in Tumor Progression
Heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) is an inducible intracellular enzyme that is expressed in response to a variety of stimuli to degrade heme, which generates the biologically active catabolites carbon monoxide (CO), biliverdin and ferrous iron (Fe2+).

Structure and mutation of deoxypodophyllotoxin synthase (DPS) from Podophyllum hexandrum
Deoxypodophyllotoxin synthase (DPS) is a 2-oxoglutarate (2-OG) dependent non-heme iron (II) dioxygenase that catalyzes the stereoselective ring-closing carbon-carbon bond formation of deoxypodophyllotoxin from the aryllignan (−)-yatein ...

The Naphthalene Catabolic Genes of Pseudomonas putida BS3701: Additional Regulatory Control
Pseudomonas microorganisms are used for bioremediation of soils contaminated with petroleum hydrocarbons. The overall remediation efficiency is largely dependent on the presence of macro- and micronutrients.

Lack of activity of recombinant HIF prolyl hydroxylases (PHDs) on reported non-HIF substrates
Human and other animal cells deploy three closely related dioxygenases (PHD 1, 2 and 3) to signal oxygen levels by catalysing oxygen regulated prolyl hydroxylation of the transcription factor HIF. The discovery of the HIF prolyl-hydroxylase (PHD) enzymes

Custom tuning of Rieske oxygenase reactivity
Rieske oxygenases use a Rieske-type [2Fe-2S] cluster and a mononuclear iron center to initiate a range of chemical transformations. However, few details exist regarding how this catalytic scaffold can be predictively tuned to catalyze divergent reactions.
