Pyridoxal in the Cerebrospinal Fluid May Be a Better Indicator of Vitamin B6–dependent Epilepsy Than Pyridoxal 5′-Phosphate [PDF]
Background We aimed to demonstrate the biochemical characteristics of vitamin B6–dependent epilepsy, with a particular focus on pyridoxal 5′-phosphate and pyridoxal in the cerebrospinal fluid. Methods Using our laboratory database, we identified patients

SLC25A38 is required for mitochondrial pyridoxal 5’-phosphate (PLP) accumulation [PDF]
Many essential proteins require pyridoxal 5’-phosphate, the active form of vitamin B6, as a cofactor for their activity. These include enzymes important for amino acid metabolism, one-carbon metabolism, polyamine synthesis, erythropoiesis, and ...

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

A novel phosphatase specific for pyridoxal 5â²-phosphate in an aerobic photosynthetic bacterium, Erythrobacter sp. OCh 114 [PDF]
Abstract An acid phosphatase highly spcific for pyridoxal 5′-phosphate (PLP) was found and partially purified from the aerobic photosynthetic bacterium, Erythrobacter sp. OCh 114. The enzyme showed a pH optimum at 5.5; its activity was stimulated by magnesium ions.

High catalytic activity of alanine racemase from psychrophilicBacillus psychrosaccharolyticusat high temperatures in the presence of pyridoxal 5â²-phosphate [PDF]
We examined the effect of the pyridoxal 5'-phosphate (PLP) cofactor on the activity and stability of the psychrophilic alanine racemase, having a high catalytic activity at low temperature, from Bacillus psychrosaccharolyticus at high temperatures. The decrease in the enzyme activity at incubation temperatures over 40 degrees C was consistent with the ...

4-Phospho-hydroxy-l-threonine is an obligatory intermediate in pyridoxal 5â²-phosphate coenzyme biosynthesis inEscherichia coliK-12 [PDF]
We show that thrB-encoded homoserine kinase is required for growth of Escherichia coli K-12 pdxB mutants on minimal glucose medium supplemented with 4-hydroxy-L-threonine (synonym, 3-hydroxyhomoserine) or D-glycolaldehyde. This result is consistent with a model in which 4-phospho-hydroxy-L-threonine (synonym, 3-hydroxyhomoserine phosphate), rather than

Enzyme-Independent Interaction of Pyridoxal-5’-Phosphate with Cysteine
Pyridoxal-5′-phosphate (PLP), commonly known as Vitamin B6, is a versatile co-factor that assists in different types of enzymatic reactions. PLP has also been reported to react with substrates and catalyze some of these reactions independent of enzymes ...
