Aqueous L-selenomethionine (SeMet) embryo exposures represent a rapid and simplified method for investigating the embryotoxic effects of SeMet. Using zebrafish (Danio rerio) as a model organism, the objective of the present study was to characterize the ...

The High-Affinity E. coli Methionine ABC Transporter: Structure and Allosteric Regulation [PDF]
The crystal structure of the high-affinity Escherichia coli MetNI methionine uptake transporter, a member of the adenosine triphosphate (ATP)–binding cassette (ABC) family, has been solved to 3.7 angstrom resolution.

Assessment of platelet production with 75Se selenomethionine [PDF]
Incorporation of intravenously injected (75)Se selenomethionine into platelets has been found to vary with alterations in the rate of platelet production. It appears to label newly produced platelets during their formation in megakaryocytes and provides a method by which thrombopoiesis may be studied in vivo.

Selenium Biotransformations in an Engineered Aquatic Ecosystem for Bioremediation of Agricultural Wastewater via Brine Shrimp Production [PDF]
An engineered aquatic ecosystem was specifically designed to bioremediate selenium (Se), occurring as oxidized inorganic selenate from hypersalinized agricultural drainage water while producing brine shrimp enriched in organic Se and omega-3 and omega-6 ...

An in-depth understanding of Se uptake and metabolism in plants is necessary for developing Se biofortification strategies. Thus, hydroponic experiments were conducted to investigate the associated processes and mechanisms of organic Se (selenomethionine (SeMet) and selenomethionine-oxide (SeOMet)) uptake, translocation, transformation and their ...
