Nanostructures for peroxidases [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Biosciences, 2015
Peroxidases are enzymes catalyzing redox reactions that cleave peroxides. Their active redox centers have heme, cysteine thiols, selenium, manganese, and other chemical moieties.

Glutathione peroxidases as oncotargets

open access: yesOncotarget, 2017
Oxidative stress is a disturbance in the equilibrium among free radicals, reactive oxygen species, and endogenous antioxidant defense mechanisms. Oxidative stress is a result of imbalance between the production of reactive oxygen and the biological ...

Prediction of some peroxidase functions in Arabidopsis thaliana L. by bioinformatic search

open access: yesВавиловский журнал генетики и селекции, 2019
Peroxidases of class III are common in various organisms. They are involved in lignin biosynthesis and plant protection against stressors. Peroxidases are presented in many isoforms, whose role is not always clear. The aim of this study is to analyze the

Consensus mutagenesis reveals that non-helical regions influence thermal stability of horseradish peroxidase [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
The enzyme horseradish peroxidase has many uses in biotechnology but a stabilized derivative would have even wider applicability. To enhance thermal stability, we applied consensus mutagenesis (used successfully with other proteins) to recombinant ...

Horseradish and soybean peroxidases: comparable tools for alternative niches? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Horseradish and soybean peroxidases (HRP and SBP, respectively) are useful biotechnological tools. HRP is often termed the classical plant heme peroxidase and although it has been studied for decades, our understanding has deepened since its cloning and ...

Peroxidase Activity of Human Hemoproteins: Keeping the Fire under Control

open access: yesMolecules, 2018
The heme in the active center of peroxidases reacts with hydrogen peroxide to form highly reactive intermediates, which then oxidize simple substances called peroxidase substrates.

Alterations in Soluble Class III Peroxidases of Maize Shoots by Flooding Stress

open access: yesProteomes, 2014
Due to changing climate, flooding (waterlogged soils and submergence) becomes a major problem in agriculture and crop production. In the present study, the effect of waterlogging was investigated on peroxidases of maize (Zea mays L.) leaves.

Antioxidative response of Melissa officinalis L. and Valeriana officinalis L. leaves exposed to exogenous melatonin and excessive zinc and cadmium level [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of the Serbian Chemical Society, 2019
Heavy metals disturb the redox homeostasis of the plant cell. The indolamine hormone, melatonin, protects plants from oxidative damage by directly scavenging reactive oxygen species or by stimulating the activity of antioxidant enzymes. The antioxidative

Fungal ecological strategies reflected in gene transcription - a case study of two litter decomposers. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Microbial communities interplay with their environment through their functional traits that can be a response or an effect on the environment. Here, we explore how a functional trait-the decomposition of organic matter, can be addressed based on genetic ...

Electrochemical Conversion of the Lignin Model Veratryl Alcohol to Veratryl Aldehyde Using Manganese(III)-Schiff Base Homogeneous Catalysts

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2019
Lignin and other colored structures need to be bleached after the Kraft process in the pulp industry. Development of environmentally-safe bleaching catalysts or electrocatalysts constitutes an attractive strategy for selective removal of lignin.
