Transient and intensive pharmacological immunosuppression fails to improve AAV-based liver gene transfer in non-human primates [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Adeno-associated vectors (rAAV) have been used to attain long-term liver gene expression. In humans, the cellular immune response poses a serious obstacle for transgene persistence while neutralizing humoral immunity curtails re ...

X-ray structure of a putative reaction intermediate of 5-aminolaevulinic acid dehydratase [PDF]
The X-ray structure of yeast 5-aminolaevulinic acid dehydratase, in which the catalytic site of the enzyme is complexed with a putative cyclic intermediate composed of both substrate moieties, has been solved at 0.16 nm (1.6 A) resolution.

Pro-oxidant effect of ALA is implicated in mitochondrial dysfunction of HepG2 cells [PDF]
Heme biosynthesis begins in the mitochondrion with the formation of delta-aminolevulinic acid (ALA). In acute intermittent porphyria, hereditary tyrosinemia type I and lead poisoning patients, ALA is accumulated in plasma and in organs, especially the ...
