Naphthoquinone derivatives exert their antitrypanosomal activity via a multi-target mechanism [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Recently, we reported on a new class of naphthoquinone derivatives showing a promising anti-trypanosomatid profile in cell-based experiments. The lead of this series (B6, 2-phenoxy-1,4-naphthoquinone) showed an ED(50) of 80 nM against Trypanosoma brucei ...

Schematic representation of the proline metabolism pathway and the proline cycle.

open access: yes, 2022
A) Most of the metabolism of proline is localized in the mitochondrion, although the PYCR3 enzyme is localized in the cytoplasm. The main precursors of proline are glutamine/glutamate and ornithine.

Drought Risk in Mango and Avocado Orchards: Insights Into Plant Water Relations and Irrigation‐Related Agronomic Solutions

open access: yesIrrigation and Drainage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Climate change is making water availability more uncertain, with growing consequences for the productivity and long‐term sustainability of tropical and subtropical fruit orchards. Mangifera indica L. and Persea americana Mill. both require large amounts of water to sustain growth and productivity.

Archaeal proline dehydrogenase from Pyrobaculum aerophilum : sequence comparison.

open access: yes, 2009
Based on the amino acid sequence, proline dehydrogenase from hyperthermophilic archaeon, Pyrobaculum aerophilum showed no significant homology with previously known bacterial proline dehydrogenase, as exemplified with Salmonella typhimurium and ...

Binuclear Copper‐Dependent Oxidative Enzymes Involved in Fungal Natural Product Modifications

open access: yesJournal of the Chinese Chemical Society, EarlyView.
This article summarizes recent biochemical characterizations of a new enzyme family named by the authors as binuclear copper‐dependent oxidative enzymes (BiNCOs). Found in fungal natural product biosynthesis, BiNCOs catalyze diverse CH functionalization reactions, including C(sp3)H halogenation, C(sp3)H hydroxylation, C(sp3)O macrocyclization, and ...

Ornithine cyclodeaminase/μ-crystallin homolog from the hyperthermophilic archaeon Thermococcus litoralis functions as a novel Δ1-pyrroline-2-carboxylate reductase involved in putative trans-3-hydroxy-l-proline metabolism

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, 2014
l-Ornithine cyclodeaminase (OCD) is involved in l-proline biosynthesis and catalyzes the unique deaminating cyclization of l-ornithine to l-proline via a Δ1-pyrroline-2-carboxyrate (Pyr2C) intermediate.

increased catalase and peroxidase activities and proline content in Nitraria tangutorum callus

open access: yes, 2012
Antioxidative responses and proline accumulation induced by exogenous H2O2 were investigated in the callus from halophyte Nitraria tangutorum Bobr. H2O2-treated callus exhibited higher H2O2 content than untreated callus.

Salt‐induced nutritional and metabolic shifts in halophytes: implications for food security

open access: yesJournal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract Plant species vary in their response to salinity: some crops show a degree of salt tolerance, while halophytes – whether wild or cultivated – are characterized by a high capacity to thrive under saline conditions. Halophytes are considered a source of valuable secondary metabolites with potential economic value, yet they might also produce ...
