Ophthalmic acid accumulation in an Escherichia coli mutant lacking the conserved pyridoxal 5′-phosphate-binding protein YggS [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Escherichia coli YggS is a highly conserved pyridoxal 5′-phosphate (PLP)-binding protein whose biochemical function is currently unknown. A previous study with a yggS-deficient E.

Current Insight into Human Ornithine Aminotransferase: A Review

open access: yesProteins: Structure, Function, and Bioinformatics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Human ornithine aminotransferase (hOAT) is a mitochondrial matrix pyridoxal‐5′‐phosphate enzyme (PLP) that catalyzes the reversible transfer of the δ‐amino group of L‐ornithine (L‐Orn) to α‐ketoglutarate (α‐KG) yielding glutamate‐5‐semialdehyde (GSA) and glutamate. GSA is prone to cyclize to Δ1‐pyrroline‐5‐carboxylate.

PLP Induced Inhibition of Thymidylate Synthase Activity in T Lymphocytes

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Inflammation, 2003
The present study was undertaken in order to examine whether pyridoxine may be used as an inhibitor of thymidylate synthase, and thus, as an antiproliferative agent.

Cuproptosis Inducers in Cancer Therapy: State of the Art and Challenges

open access: yesThe Chemical Record, EarlyView.
Cuproptosis is emerging as a distinct copper‐dependent cell death pathway, highlighting copper as a potential metabolic vulnerability in cancer. This review examines how coordination chemistry, redox regulation, and nanomaterial design shape Cu reactivity and therapeutic outcomes.

Human placental vitamin B6 (pyridoxal) transport: normal characteristics and effects of ethanol

open access: yes, 1992
The aims of this study were to define normal human placental transport of pyridoxal, an important form of vitamin B6 in pregnancy, and to determine the effect of short-term alcohol on this process. Our studies used the isolated single cotyledon from the

Genetic Tools in the Nakaseomyces clade for Evolutionary Comparisons of Signal Transduction Pathways

open access: yesYeast, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The genus Nakaseomyces provides four species that are closely related but have different characteristics. For example, N. glabratus (formerly known as Candida glabrata) is a common human pathogen, whereas N. bracarensis and N. nivariensis have been isolated in clinical settings but are not common human pathogens. N.

Discovery and Characterization of Pyridoxal 5’-Phosphate-Dependent Cycloleucine Synthases

open access: yes
Pyridoxal 5’-phosphate (PLP)-dependent enzymes are the most versatile biocatalysts for synthesizing non proteinogenic amino acids. a,a-disubstituted quaternary amino acids, such as 1-amino-1-cyclopentanecarboxylic acid (cycloleucine), are useful building
