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

Carnitine metabolism to trimethylamine by an unusual Rieske-type oxygenase from human microbiota [PDF]
Dietary intake of L-carnitine can promote cardiovascular diseases in humans through microbial production of trimethylamine (TMA) and its subsequent oxidation to trimethylamine N-oxide (TMAO) by hepatic flavin-containing monooxygenases.

Hemin as a protective agent in an in vitro model of hypoxia/reoxygenation-induced injury. [PDF]
Objective: Ischemia-reperfusion injury exacerbates myocardial damage and affects the prognosis of patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction. This study investigates the potential cytoprotective effects of hemin in an in vitro cardiomyocyte model ...

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 ...

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 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+).
