Two DsbA Proteins Are Important for Vibrio parahaemolyticus Pathogenesis
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2019 Bacterial pathogens maintain disulfide bonds for protein stability and functions that are required for pathogenesis. Vibrio parahaemolyticus is a Gram-negative pathogen that causes food-borne gastroenteritis and is also an important opportunistic ...

Nitrogenase Fe Protein: A Multi-Tasking Player in Substrate Reduction and Metallocluster Assembly
Molecules, 2022 The Fe protein of nitrogenase plays multiple roles in substrate reduction and metallocluster assembly. Best known for its function to transfer electrons to its catalytic partner during nitrogenase catalysis, the Fe protein is also a key player in the ...

Acta Societatis Botanicorum Poloniae, 2011 Two seed lots of Acer saccharinum (recalcitrant), with an initial moisture content of 50% and 55%, were stored at +3oC for 6 months. After this time, their viability (measured as germinability) reached 100% and 30%, respectively.

The Fe Protein: An Unsung Hero of Nitrogenase
Inorganics, 2018 Although the nitrogen-fixing enzyme nitrogenase critically requires both a reductase component (Fe protein) and a catalytic component, considerably more work has focused on the latter species.

The newfound relationship between extrachromosomal DNAs and excised signal circles
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Extrachromosomal DNAs (ecDNAs) contribute to the progression of many human cancers. In addition, circular DNA by‐products of V(D)J recombination, excised signal circles (ESCs), have roles in cancer progression but have largely been overlooked. In this Review, we explore the roles of ecDNAs and ESCs in cancer development, and highlight why these ...

Murburn concept: a paradigm shift in cellular metabolism and physiology
Biomolecular Concepts, 2020 Two decades of evidence-based exploratory pursuits in heme-flavin enzymology led to the formulation of a new biological electron/moiety transfer paradigm, called murburn concept.

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.The Ile181Asn variant of human UDP‐xylose synthase (hUXS1), associated with a short‐stature genetic syndrome, has previously been reported as inactive. Our findings demonstrate that Ile181Asn‐hUXS1 retains catalytic activity similar to the wild‐type but exhibits reduced stability, a looser oligomeric state, and an increased tendency to precipitate ...
