Singular Features of Trypanosomatids' Phosphotransferases Involved in Cell Energy Management

open access: yesEnzyme Research, 2011
Trypanosomatids are responsible for economically important veterinary affections and severe human diseases. In Africa, Trypanosoma brucei causes sleeping sickness or African trypanosomiasis, while in America, Trypanosoma cruzi is the etiological agent of

Late G1 Cell Cycle Molecular Pathways

open access: yesMedEdPORTAL, 2008
The most critical stage of the cell cycle is the transition point in late G1 where the cell commits to initiating DNA synthesis. Multiple pathways of stimulation and inhibition converge, and it can be difficult for students to comprehend how all these ...

Source of Phosphate in the Enzymic Reaction as a Point of Distinction among Aminoglycoside 2″-Phosphotransferases*

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 2009
Aminoglycoside 2″-phosphotransferases are clinically important enzymes that cause high levels of resistance to aminoglycoside antibiotics by the organisms that harbor them.

Look and Outlook on Enzyme-Mediated Macrolide Resistance

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2018
Since their discovery in the early 1950s, macrolide antibiotics have been used in both agriculture and medicine. Specifically, macrolides such as erythromycin and azithromycin have found use as substitutes for β-lactam antibiotics in patients with ...

Crystal structures of two aminoglycoside kinases bound with a eukaryotic protein kinase inhibitor. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2011
Antibiotic resistance is recognized as a growing healthcare problem. To address this issue, one strategy is to thwart the causal mechanism using an adjuvant in partner with the antibiotic.

Characterization of β-Lactamases and Multidrug Resistance Mechanisms in Enterobacterales from Hospital Effluents and Wastewater Treatment Plant

open access: yesAntibiotics, 2022
Antimicrobials in wastewater promote the emergence of antibiotic resistance, facilitated by selective pressure and transfer of resistant genes. Enteric bacteria belonging to Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Klebsiella oxytoca, Enterobacter ...

A New Family of Phosphotransferases with a P-loop Motif*

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 2002
In most Gram-positive bacteria, catabolite repression is mediated by a bifunctional enzyme, the histidine-containing protein kinase/phosphatase (HprK/P).

Profiling tear film enzymes reveals major metabolic pathways involved in the homeostasis of the ocular surface

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
The ocular surface (OS) enzymes are of great interest due to their potential for novel ocular drug development. We aimed first to profile and classify the enzymes of the OS to describe major biological processes and pathways that are involved in the ...

Enzymes are enriched in bacterial essential genes.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2011
Essential genes, those indispensable for the survival of an organism, play a key role in the emerging field, synthetic biology. Characterization of functions encoded by essential genes not only has important practical implications, such as in identifying
