Strigolactone biosynthesis is evolutionarily conserved, regulated by phosphate starvation and contributes to resistance against phytopathogenic fungi in a moss, Physcomitrella patens [PDF]
, 2017 In seed plants, strigolactones (SLs) regulate architecture and induce mycorrhizal symbiosis in response to environmental cues. SLs are formed by combined activity of the carotenoid cleavage dioxygenases (CCDs) 7 and 8 from 9-cis-β-carotene, leading to ...

Sudestada1, a Drosophila ribosomal prolyl-hydroxylase required for mRNA translation, cell homeostasis, and organ growth [PDF]
, 2014 Genome sequences predict the presence of many 2-oxoglutarate (2OG)-dependent oxygenases of unknown biochemical and biological functions in Drosophila. Ribosomal protein hydroxylation is emerging as an important 2OG oxygenase catalyzed pathway, but its ...

ENGINEERING NON-HEME MONO- AND DIOXYGENASES FOR BIOCATALYSIS
Computational and Structural Biotechnology Journal, 2012 Oxygenases are ubiquitous enzymes that catalyze the introduction of one or two oxygen atoms to unreactive chemical compounds. They require reduction equivalents from NADH or NADPH and comprise metal ions, metal ion complexes, or coenzymes in their active

Conservation of the unusual dimeric JmjC fold of JMJD7 from Drosophila melanogaster to humans
Scientific Reports, 2022 The JmjC family of 2-oxoglutarate dependent oxygenases catalyse a range of hydroxylation and demethylation reactions in humans and other animals. Jumonji domain-containing 7 (JMJD7) is a JmjC (3S)-lysyl-hydroxylase that catalyses the modification of ...

Spin-orbit coupling effects in O(2) activation by cofactor-independent 2,4-dioxygenase [PDF]
The Ukrainian Biochemical Journal, 2019 The O2 (dioxygen) is paramagnetic molecule with two non-paired electron spins and triplet ground state (S = 1) while majority of organic molecules are diamagnetic species; they have all electron spins paired and the singlet ground state with the total ...

OxDBase: a database of oxygenases involved in biodegradation
BMC Research Notes, 2009 Background Oxygenases belong to the oxidoreductive group of enzymes (E.C. Class 1), which oxidize the substrates by transferring oxygen from molecular oxygen (O2) and utilize FAD/NADH/NADPH as the co-substrate.
