Characterization and Function Analysis of the Beta-Carotene Oxygenase-like Genes in Carotenoids Metabolism of the Ridgetail White Prawn Exopalaemon carinicauda

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2020
Carotenoids are almost universally distributed in living organisms. The oxidative metabolism by carotene oxygenase contributes to the metabolic processes of carotenoids.

O2‐Aktivierung an einem enzymatischen diFe‐Zentrum: Brückenligand‐Substitutionen ändern die Fe(II)/Fe(II) (Hydro)peroxo‐Bindung

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Durch Austausch der verbrückenden Carboxylate in DiFe‐Suleythrin wird die Koordination des Brückenliganden von 1,3‐Carboxylat zu 1,1‐Carboxylat verschoben, wodurch alle drei diFe(II)‐Koordinationsmotive in einem Protein entstehen. Dies verkürzt den Fe‐Fe‐Abstand und erhöht die Reaktivität mit O2.

Fatty acid oxygenase activity of human hair roots

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1993
The extent to which fatty acid oxygenases are activated in the normal epidermis is not known. Characterization of the regio- and stereospecificity of the monohydroxylated derivatives of arachidonic and linoleic acid produced by human hair roots is needed

Stereospecificity of the products of the fatty acid oxygenases derived from psoriatic scales.

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1991
The principal in vivo oxygenase products of arachidonic acid and linoleic acid in psoriatic skin scales are 12-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid (R/S ratio = 5.7), 13-hydroxyoctadecadienoic acid (S/R = 1.9), and 9-hydroxyoctadecadienoic acid (R/S = 2.4 ...

Structural and mutational analyses of the Leptospira interrogans virulence-related heme oxygenase provide insights into its catalytic mechanism.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2017
Heme oxygenase from Leptospira interrogans is an important virulence factor. During catalysis, redox equivalents are provided to this enzyme by the plastidic-type ferredoxin-NADP+ reductase also found in L. interrogans.

O2 Activation at an Enzymatic Diiron Site: Bridging Ligand Substitutions Alter Diferric‐(Hydro)peroxo States

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie International Edition, EarlyView.
Substituting the bridging carboxylates in diFe sulerythrin shifts the bridging ligand coordination from 1,3‐carboxylate to 1,1‐carboxylate, yielding all three diferrous bridging motifs in one protein. This shortens the Fe–Fe distance and increases reactivity with O2.

Heme oxygenase 2 is neuroprotective against intracerebral hemorrhage

open access: yesNeurobiology of Disease, 2006
Recent studies suggest a neuroprotective function for heme oxygenase 2 (HO2) in acute brain injury and ischemia. HO2, the main enzyme to degrade the pro-oxidant heme, was tested for its neuroprotective ability in postnatal neuronal cell cultures and in a

Heme Oxygenase–Like Metalloenzymes

open access: yesAnnual Review of Biochemistry
Heme oxygenase (HO)-like metalloenzymes are an emerging protein superfamily diverse in reaction outcome and mechanism. Found primarily in bacterial biosynthetic pathways, members conserve a flexible protein scaffold shared with the heme catabolic enzyme, HO, and a set of metal-binding residues.

Coinfection between human immunodeficiency virus and tuberculosis: A consideration on ritonavir-related heme Oxygenase-1 pathway

open access: yesBiomedical and Biotechnology Research Journal, 2019
Background: Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection is an important infection seen worldwide. HIV-infected patients usually have impaired immune function and get infected with other concurrent infections.
