PHOSPHOMANNOMUTASE 2-CONGENITAL DISORDER OF GLYCOSYLATION: A CASE REPORT AND LITERATURE REVIE [PDF]
Objective To investigate the clinical and genetic features of patients with phosphomannomutase 2 (PMM2)-congenital disorder of glycosylation (CDG), and to provide a basis for the early diagnosis of PMM2-CDG. Methods A retrospective analysis was performed

Evolutionary Analysis and Functional Characterization of Different Histidinol Phosphate Phosphatases [PDF]
The elaborate metabolism of modern organisms raises the question of how such a complex system could have developed from a simple ancient prestage with a presumably very limited repertoire of enzymes.

Identification and cloning of a novel phosphatase expressed at high levels in differentiating growth plate chondrocytes [PDF]
Growth plate chondrocytes progress through a proliferative phase before acquiring a terminally-differentiated phenotype. In this study we used Percoll density gradients to separate chick growth plate chondrocytes into populations of different ...

Structure guided insight into function, mechanism, and evolution in a phosphoryl- and phosphoglycosyl- transferase superfamily [PDF]
The haloalkanoate dehalogenase (HAD) and monotopic phosphoglycosyl transferase (monoPGT) superfamilies were used to study structure/function relationships and protein evolution.

Substrate specificity and conformational activation mechanism of beta-phosphoglucomutase [PDF]
Phosphate transfer is ubiquitous in nature, however the occurance of phosphomutases is rare. Their uniqueness can be attributed to the complex and malleable substrate recognition scheme that allows the enzyme to perform two similar, yet distinct ...

COMPARATIVE APPROACHES FOR PLANT GENOMES: UNRAVELING "INTRA" AND "INTER" SPECIES RELATIONSHIPS FROM PRELIMINARY GENE ANNOTATIONS [PDF]
Comparative genomics studies the differences and similarities between different species, to transfer biological information from model organisms to newly sequenced genomes, and to understand the evolutionary forces that drive changes in genomic features ...

YZGD pyridoxal phosphatase from P. thiaminolyticus; subcloning, expression, and purification for x-ray crystallography structure determination [PDF]
The HAD superfamily contains enzymes that catalyze carbon or phosphate transfer reactions. One family within the HAD superfamily is the p-nitrophenyl phosphatase (PNPPase) family.

Function assignment within the haloacid dehalogenase superfamily [PDF]
The HaloacidDehalogenase Enzyme Superfamily (HADSF) is a ubiquitous family of enzymes. Presently, more than 45,000 deposited gene sequences encode proteins of the HADSF, and only a fraction of these have defined structure and/or function.
