Photosynthesis under far‐red light—evolutionary adaptations and bioengineering of light‐harvesting complexes

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Phototrophs evolved light‐harvesting systems adapted for efficient photon capture in habitats enriched in far‐red radiation. A subset of eukaryotic pigment‐binding proteins can absorb far‐red photons via low‐energy chlorophyll states known as red forms.

Bacterial nitrate assimilation: gene distribution and regulation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
In the context of the global nitrogen cycle, the importance of inorganic nitrate for the nutrition and growth of marine and freshwater autotrophic phytoplankton has long been recognized.

The IQ‐compete assay for measuring mitochondrial protein import efficiencies in living yeast cells

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The efficiency of mitochondrial protein import depends on the properties of the newly synthesized precursor proteins. The Import and de‐Quenching Competition (IQ‐compete) assay is a novel method to monitor the import efficiency of different proteins by fluorescence in living yeast cells.

Interaction between the MTHFR C677T polymorphism and traumatic childhood events predicts depression [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Childhood trauma is associated with the onset and recurrence of major depressive disorder (MDD). The thermolabile T variant of the methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) C677T polymorphism (rs1801133) is associated with a limited (oxidative) stress ...

The zinc finger domains of PARP‐1 are selectively and potently inhibited by the Au(I)‐based drugs sodium aurothiomalate and aurothioglucose

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
PARP‐1 is a key enzyme in the DNA damage response, and its inhibition induces cancer cell death via synthetic lethality. Au(I)‐based drugs, such as aurothioglucose and sodium aurothiomalate, block PARP‐1's DNA‐dependent activity by targeting its zinc finger domains.

Growth and Mineral Nutrition of the Chickpea ( Cicer arietinum L.)-Rhizobia Symbiosis under Water Deficit

open access: yesBrazilian Archives of Biology and Technology, 2018
The effect of the water deficit on the fresh and dry weight in the various parts of the plant and on several mineral processes in different symbiotic combinations for the chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) varieties was studied.

Thioredoxin reductase from Bacillus cereus exhibits distinct reduction and NADPH‐binding properties

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, 2021
Low‐molecular‐weight (low Mr) thioredoxin reductases (TrxRs) are homodimeric NADPH‐dependent dithiol flavoenzymes that reduce thioredoxins (Trxs) or Trx‐like proteins involved in the activation networks of enzymes, such as the bacterial class Ib ...

The Ion-Translocating NrfD-Like Subunit of Energy-Transducing Membrane Complexes

open access: yesFrontiers in Chemistry, 2021
Several energy-transducing microbial enzymes have their peripheral subunits connected to the membrane through an integral membrane protein, that interacts with quinones but does not have redox cofactors, the so-called NrfD-like subunit.

Aldose Reductase Inhibitors [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Enzyme Inhibition, 2001
Aldose reductase ([EC1.1.1.21]: AR) acts on the first step of the polyol metabolic pathway to catalyze the reduction of glucose to sorbitol with NADPH as a coenzyme. Hyperactivity of the pathway in individuals with high blood glucose level is closely related to the onset or progression of diabetic complications.

Real‐time assay of ribonucleotide reductase activity with a fluorescent RNA aptamer

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Ribonucleotide reductases (RNR) synthesize DNA building blocks de novo, making them crucial in DNA replication and drug targeting. FLARE introduces the first single‐tube real‐time coupled RNR assay, which enables isothermal tracking of RNR activity at nanomolar enzyme levels and allows the reconstruction of allosteric regulatory patterns and rapid ...
