Putrescine catabolism in mammalian brain [PDF]
In contrast with putrescine (1,4-diaminobutane), which is a substrate of diamine oxidase, monoacetylputrescine is oxidatively deaminated both in vitro and in vivo by monoamine oxidase. The product of this reaction is N-acetyl-γ-aminobutyrate. The existence of a degradative pathway in mammalian brain for putrescine is shown, which comprises acetylation ...

Changing root system architecture through inhibition of putrescine and feruloyl putrescine accumulation [PDF]
Plant roots provide anchorage and absorb the water and minerals necessary for photosynthesis in the aerial parts of the plant. Since plants are sessile organisms, their root systems must forage for resources in heterogeneous soils through differential branching and elongation [(1988) Funct. Ecol. 2, 345‐351; (1991) Plant Roots: The Hidden Half, pp.

Specific measurement of putrescine with putrescine oxidase and aminobutyraldehyde dehydrogenase.
A simple and rapid spectrophotometric method, based upon the UV absorption of NADH, for the measurement of putrescine by the combined use of aminobutyraldehyde dehydrogenase (EC 1.2.1.19) and putrescine oxidase (EC 1.4.3.10) was established. Simplified purification procedures for the analytical use of aminobutyraldehyde dehydrogenase of Pseudomonas ...

Upregulation of Transglutaminase andε(γ-Glutamyl)-Lysine in the Fisher-Lewis Rat Model of Chronic Allograft Nephropathy [PDF]
Background. Tissue transglutaminase (TG2), a cross-linking enzyme, modulates deposition of extracellular matrix protein in renal fibrosis. This study aimed to examine TG2 and its cross-link product ε(γ-glutamyl)-lysine in the Fisher-Lewis rat renal ...

Artificial environments for the co-translational stabilization of cell-free expressed proteins [PDF]
An approach for designing individual expression environments that reduce or prevent protein aggregation and precipitation is described. Inefficient folding of difficult proteins in unfavorable translation environments can cause significant losses of ...

Transcriptome Profile of Fusarium graminearum Treated by Putrescine
Fusarium graminearum (F. graminearum) is the main pathogen of Fusarium head blight (FHB) in wheat, barley, and corn. Deoxynivalenol (DON), produced by F. graminearum, is the most prevalent toxin associated with FHB.
