Characterization of rhodanese synthesized by the wild and EMS-mutated Klebsiella oxytoca JCM1665
Cyanide poisoning remains a significant concern for both civilian and military personnel worldwide. Rhodanese, a cyanide detoxify enzyme produced by the wild (KOJCM1665) and two selected mutant strains (KOJCM1665c and KOJCM1665d) of Klebsiella oxytoca ...

The refolding of recombinant human liver methylmalonyl-CoA mutase from inclusion bodies produced in Escherichia coli : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Biochemistry at Massey University [PDF]
Human methylmalonyl-CoA mutase (hMCM) is an adenosylcobalamin-dependent enzyme that catalyses the structural rearrangement of (R)-methylmalonyl-CoA to succinyl-CoA as pan of the catabolism of the branched chain amino acids valine, leucine and isoleucine,

In Hyphomicrobium denitrificans, the use of thiosulfate as a supplemental electron donor is regulated by two homologous sulfane‐sulfur responsive ArsR‐type transcriptional repressors, sHdrR and SoxR, that act cooperatively. Remarkably, the regulation by sHdrR/SoxR extends far beyond sulfur oxidation and deeply affects anaerobic metabolism, particularly

Allyl sulfur compounds and cellular detoxification system: effects and perspectives in cancer therapy [PDF]
Natural organosulfur compounds (OSCs) have been shown to have chemopreventive effects and to suppress the proliferation of tumor cells in vitro through the induction of apoptosis.

Continuous chemotrophic growth and respiration of Chromatiaceae species at low oxygen concentrations [PDF]
Endogenous and maximum respiration rates of nine purple sulfur bacterial strains were determined. Endogenous rates were below 10 nmol O2 · (mg protein · min)-1 for sulfur-free cells and 15–35 nmol O2 · (mg protein · min)-1 for cells containg ...

Redirecting Intermediary Metabolism to Counteract Cyanide Poisoning
Cyanide is coined “the classic metabolic poison”; however, FDA‐approved cyanide chelators do not counteract cyanide's metabolic damage. Here, we review the mechanisms of cyanide toxicity, with a focus on intermediary metabolism. We present the theory that, within the innate plasticity of the metabolome, there may reside metabolic pathways that can ...
