Brain pyridoxal kinase [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Biochemistry, 1986
Pyridoxal kinase has been purified 9000‐fold from sheep brain. The purification procedure involves ammonium sulphate fractionation, DEAE‐cellulose chromatography, affinity chromatography and Sephadex G‐100 gel filtration. The final chromatography step yields a homogeneous preparation of high specific activity with a pI of 5.

Roscovitine Targets, Protein Kinases and Pyridoxal Kinase [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 2005
(R)-Roscovitine (CYC202) is often referred to as a "selective inhibitor of cyclin-dependent kinases." Besides its use as a biological tool in cell cycle, neuronal functions, and apoptosis studies, it is currently evaluated as a potential drug to treat cancers, neurodegenerative diseases, viral infections, and glomerulonephritis.

Circular RNA pyridoxal kinase (circPDXK) involves in the progression of ovarian cancer and glycolysis via regulating miR-654-3p and hexokinase II

open access: yesApplied Biological Chemistry, 2022
Background Circular RNA pyridoxal kinase (circPDXK; hsa_circ_0061893) is newly identified to be aberrantly expressed in ovarian cancer (OVCA); however, its functional role in OVCA cells remains to be expounded.

Multiple mutations in heterogeneous miltefosine-resistant Leishmania major population as determined by whole genome sequencing. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2012
Miltefosine (MF) is the first oral compound used in the chemotherapy against leishmaniasis. Since the mechanism of action of this drug and the targets of MF in Leishmania are unclear, we generated in a step-by-step manner Leishmania major promastigote ...

The intestine plays a substantial role in human vitamin B6 metabolism: a Caco-2 cell model. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
BACKGROUND: Vitamin B6 is present in various forms (vitamers) in the diet that need to be metabolized to pyridoxal phosphate (PLP), the active cofactor form of vitamin B6.

Lipopolyplex-Mediated Co-Delivery of Doxorubicin and FAK siRNA to Enhance Therapeutic Efficiency of Treating Colorectal Cancer

open access: yesPharmaceutics, 2023
Tumor metastasis is a major concern in cancer therapy. In this context, focal adhesion kinase (FAK) gene overexpression, which mediates cancer cell migration and invasion, has been reported in several human tumors and is considered a potential ...

Protective role of vitamin B6 (PLP) against DNA damage in Drosophila models of type 2 diabetes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Growing evidence shows that improper intake of vitamin B6 increases cancer risk and several studies indicate that diabetic patients have a higher risk of developing tumors.

A screen for suppressors of gross chromosomal rearrangements identifies a conserved role for PLP in preventing DNA lesions. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2007
Genome instability is a hallmark of cancer cells. One class of genome aberrations prevalent in tumor cells is termed gross chromosomal rearrangements (GCRs).
