Structural analysis and biochemical properties of laccase enzymes from two Pediococcus species
Prokaryotic laccases are emergent biocatalysts. However, they have not been broadly found and characterized in bacterial organisms, especially in lactic acid bacteria. Recently, a prokaryotic laccase from the lactic acid bacterium Pediococcus acidilactici 5930, which can degrade biogenic amines, was discovered.

Background: Two classes of amine oxidases are found in mammals: those with a flavin adenine dinucleotide as a cofactor, such as monoamine oxidases (MAO) and lysine-specific demethylases (LSD), and those with copper as a cofactor, including copper ...

Background: The role of Semicarbazide-sensitive amine oxidase (SSAO) in carcinogenesis is unknown; however, due to its function it may be involved in tumorigenesis via production of reactive aldehydes and hydrogen peroxide.

Ferricytochrome c Directly Oxidizes Aminoacetone to Methylglyoxal, a Catabolite Accumulated in Carbonyl Stress [PDF]
Age-related diseases are associated with increased production of reactive oxygen and carbonyl species such as methylglyoxal. Aminoacetone, a putative threonine catabolite, is reportedly known to undergo metal-catalyzed oxidation to methylglyoxal, NH4 ...

Endothelial cell-derived SSAO can increase MLC20 phosphorylation in VSMCs
Vascular hyporesponsiveness in the shock decompensation period is an important factor leading to death. Myosin light chain 20 (MLC20) is the main effector protein that regulates vascular reactivity.

Copper-dependent amino oxidase 3 governs selection of metabolic fuels in adipocytes. [PDF]
Copper (Cu) has emerged as an important modifier of body lipid metabolism. However, how Cu contributes to the physiology of fat cells remains largely unknown.

Potential role of NADPH-oxidase in early steps of lead-induced oxidative burst in Vicia faba roots [PDF]
The mechanism of oxidative burst induced by lead in Vicia faba excised roots was investigated by luminol-dependent chemiluminescence. Results showed that lead triggered a rapid and dose-dependent increase in chemiluminescence production.
