Carbonyl reductase

Chemico-Biological Interactions, 2000
Carbonyl reductase (secondary-alcohol:NADP(+) oxidoreductase, EC 1.1. 1.184) belongs to the family of short chain dehydrogenases/reductases (SDR). Carbonyl reductases (CBRs) are NADPH-dependent, mostly monomeric, cytosolic enzymes with broad substrate specificity for many endogenous and xenobiotic carbonyl compounds.

Ribonucleotide Reductases

Annual Review of Biochemistry, 2006
Ribonucleotide reductases (RNRs) transform RNA building blocks to DNA building blocks by catalyzing the substitution of the 2′OH-group of a ribonucleotide with a hydrogen by a mechanism involving protein radicals. Three classes of RNRs employ different mechanisms for the generation of the protein radical. Recent structural studies of members from each

Bacterial dimethyl sulphoxide reductases and nitrate reductases

Biochemical Society Transactions, 1991
interactions which can be done when more structural information is available, but they do provide order of magnitude estimates of interaction strengths. Evidently, considerable rearrangement of charge driven by reduction significantly raises the effective dielectric. It seems likely that centres S-2 and FR-2 are apparently low-potential clusters merely

Inhibition of aldehyde reductase by aldose reductase inhibitors

Biochemical Pharmacology, 1990
A broad group of structurally diverse aldose reductase inhibitors including flavonoids, carboxylic acids and hydantoins, have been examined for their ability to inhibit rat kidney aldehyde reductase (EC 1.1.1.19, EC 1.1.1.20) versus rat lens aldose reductase (EC 1.1.1.21).

Sulfite Reductase of Escherichia coli Is a Ferrisiderophore Reductase

Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications, 1993
A soluble ferrisiderophore reductase activity of Escherichia coli was purified to homogeneity and identified as the sulfite reductase. The pure enzyme catalyzes the reduction of ferric citrate, ferriaerobactin, ferrioxamin, ferricrocin, ferrichrome and ferrifusarinin by NADPH. Free flavins, riboflavin, FMN, FAD were absolutely required, suggesting that

Glutathione reductase functions as vanadate(V) reductase

Archives of Biochemistry and Biophysics, 1990
The oxidation of NADPH by vanadate(V) in the presence of glutathione reductase showed typical enzymatic kinetics. The oxidation was inhibited by N-ethylmaleimide, a glutathione reductase inhibitor. Superoxide dismutase had no significant effect on the oxidation, indicating noninvolvement of the superoxide radical. The vanadate(V) reduction was found to

Human Brain Aldehyde Reductases: Relationship to Succinic Semialdehyde Reductase and Aldose Reductase

Journal of Neurochemistry, 1980
AbstractHuman brain contains multiple forms of aldehyde‐reducing enzymes. One major form (AR3), as previously shown, has properties that indicate its identity with NADPH‐dependent aldehyde reductase isolated from brain and other organs of various species; i.e., low molecular weight, use of NADPH as the preferred cofactor, and sensitivity to inhibition ...

Identification of Pig Brain Aldehyde Reductases with the High‐Km Aldehyde Reductase, the Low‐Km Aldehyde Reductase and Aldose Reductase, Carbonyl Reductase, and Succinic Semialdehyde Reductase

Journal of Neurochemistry, 1985
Abstract: Four NADPH‐dependent aldehyde reductases (ALRs) isolated from pig brain have been characterized with respect to substrate specificity, inhibition by drugs, and immunological criteria. The major enzyme, ALR1, is identical in these respects with the high‐Km aldehyde reductase, glucuronate reductase, and tissue‐specific, e.g., pig kidney ...

Nitrate reductase and cytochrome bnitrate reductase structural genes as parts of the nitrate reductase operon

Molecular and General Genetics MGG, 1981
The existence of a nitrate-reductase operon in the tryptophane region was deduced from the effects of prophage insertion in each of chlI and chlC genes and from transposition of the Mu-mediated host DNA fragments of F-prime. This operon appears to be polarized from chlC to chlI and the gene order in the region is trp -- chlI -- chlC -- purB.

Glutathione reductase and thioredoxin reductase at the crossroad: The structure of Schistosoma mansoni thioredoxin glutathione reductase

Proteins: Structure, Function, and Bioinformatics, 2008
AbstractThioredoxin glutathione reductase (TGR) is a key flavoenzyme expressed by schistosomes that bridges two detoxification pathways crucial for the parasite survival in the host's organism. In this article we report the crystal structure (at 2.2 Å resolution) of TGR from Schistosoma mansoni (SmTGR), deleted in the last two residues.
