Extensive Identification of Bacterial Riboflavin Transporters and Their Distribution across Bacterial Species [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
Riboflavin, the precursor for the cofactors flavin mononucleotide (FMN) and flavin adenine dinucleotide, is an essential metabolite in all organisms. While the functions for de novo riboflavin biosynthesis and riboflavin import may coexist in bacteria ...

Facts About Riboflavin

open access: yesEDIS, 2012
Did you know that mushrooms are a good source of riboflavin? Riboflavin is one of the B vitamins, also known as vitamin B2. We need riboflavin to use the carbohydrates, fats, and proteins in the foods we eat.

Disorders of riboflavin metabolism [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Inherited Metabolic Disease, 2019
AbstractRiboflavin (vitamin B2), a water‐soluble vitamin, is an essential nutrient in higher organisms as it is not endogenously synthesised, with requirements being met principally by dietary intake. Tissue‐specific transporter proteins direct riboflavin to the intracellular machinery responsible for the biosynthesis of the flavocoenzymes flavin ...

Riboflavin Production by Molds [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Bacteriology, 1947
Very little information is at hand regarding the ability of molds to synthesize riboflavin. Few citations pertaining directly to riboflavin production by true molds are available. Pontovich (1943) found as much as 2 mg riboflavin per g of Aspergillus flavus mycelium. Tanner et at.

Harnessing riboflavin production of food derived L. fermentum to develop a riboflavin bio-enriched oat beverage

open access: yesApplied Food Research
Riboflavin is a key micronutrient and important precursor of the co-enzymes flavin mononucleotide (FMN) and flavin adenine-di-nucleotide (FAD) thereby playing a vital role in nutrient metabolism, growth and development of the human body. Some lactic acid

Interruptible demyelination in avian riboflavin deficient neuropathy

open access: yesCell & Bioscience
Background and aims The evolution of demyelination in individual internodes remains unclear although it has been noticed the paranodal demyelination precedes internodal demyelination in neuropathies with diverse aetiologies.

Role of riboflavin biosynthesis gene duplication and transporter in Aeromonas salmonicida virulence in marine teleost fish

open access: yesVirulence, 2023
Active flavins derived from riboflavin (vitamin B2) are essential for life. Bacteria biosynthesize riboflavin or scavenge it through uptake systems, and both mechanisms may be present.

Riboflavin-Promoted In Situ Photoactivation of Dihydroalkaloid Prodrugs for Cancer Therapy

open access: yes, 2022
Cancer therapies usually suffer from poor targeting ability and serious side effects. Photoactivatable cancer therapy has the significant advantage of a high spatiotemporal resolution, but most photoactivatable prodrugs require decoration with ...
