The Journal of biological chemistry, 1998 Microsomal fractions from pig and calf brain catalyze the enzymatic dephosphorylation of endogenous and exogenous dolichyl monophosphate (Dol-P) (Sumbilla, C. A., and Waechter, C. J. (1985) Methods Enzymol. 111, 471-482). The Dol-P phosphatase (EC 3.1.3.51) has been solubilized by extracting pig brain microsomes with the nonionic detergent Nonidet P-40

Coordination of Primer Sugar Synthesis with O-antigen Initiation in Rhizobium Etli CE3 [PDF]
, 2014 All organisms synthesize amidosugars, such as N-acetylglucosamine (GlcNAc), and deoxysugars, such as fucose. They are found in important polysaccharides and glycoconjugates such as glycoproteins.

Structural Studies of Phospho-MurNAc-pentapeptide Translocase and Ternary Complex of a NaV C-Terminal Domain, a Fibroblast Growth Factor Homologous Factor, and Calmodulin [PDF]
Phospho-MurNAc-pentapeptide translocase (MraY) is a conserved membrane-spanning enzyme involved in the biosynthesis of bacterial cell walls. MraY generates lipid I by transferring the phospho-MurNAc-pentapeptide to the lipid carrier undecaprenyl ...

The Journal of biological chemistry, 2006 The transfer of mannose from GDP-mannonse to exogenous glycopeptides and simple glycosides has been shown to be carried out by calf thyroid particles (Adamany, A. M., and Spiro, R. G. (1975) J. Biol. Chem. 250, 2830-2841). The present investigation indicates that this mannosylation process is accomplished through two sequential enzymatic reactions. The

Medium-Chain Polyprenols Influence Chloroplast Membrane Dynamics In Solanum Lycopersicum [PDF]
, 2018 The widespread occurrence of polyprenols throughout the plant kingdom is well documented, yet their functional role is poorly understood. These lipophilic compounds are known to be assembled from isoprenoid precursors by a class of enzymes designated as ...
