Phytophthora capsici sterol reductase PcDHCR7 has a role in mycelium development and pathogenicity
The de novo biosynthesis of sterols is critical for the majority of eukaryotes; however, some organisms lack this pathway, including most oomycetes. Phytophthora spp.

Production of Long Chain Fatty Alcohols Found in Bumblebee Pheromones by Yarrowia lipolytica
Fatty alcohols (FA-OH) are aliphatic unbranched primary alcohols with a chain of four or more carbon atoms. Besides potential industrial applications, fatty alcohols have important biological functions as well. In nature, fatty alcohols are produced as a

Chromium bioremediation by Alcaligenes sp. strain newly isolated from chromite mine of Sabzevar [PDF]
In this work, CKCr-6A strain was found to be highly resistant to some toxic heavy metals such as Cr+6, Cr+3, Cu+2, Co+2, Cd+2, Pb+2, Hg+2, U+6, tellurium, and selenite. Herein, high chromate tolerance of an isolated strain is reported with a high minimum

RIBONUCLEOTIDE REDUCTASES [PDF]
Ribonucleotide reductases provide the building blocks for DNA replication in all living cells. Three different classes of enzymes use protein free radicals to activate the substrate. Aerobic class I enzymes generate a tyrosyl radical with an iron-oxygen center and dioxygen, class II enzymes employ adenosylcobalamin, and the anaerobic class III enzymes

Identifying structural and dynamic changes during the Biliverdin Reductase B catalytic cycle
Biliverdin Reductase B (BLVRB) is an NADPH-dependent reductase that catalyzes the reduction of multiple substrates and is therefore considered a critical cellular redox regulator.
