Effects of Polyphenols on Oxidative Stress-Mediated Injury in Cardiomyocytes [PDF]
Cardiovascular diseases are the main cause of mortality and morbidity in the world. Hypertension, ischemia/reperfusion, diabetes and anti-cancer drugs contribute to heart failure through oxidative and nitrosative stresses which cause cardiomyocytes ...

Genetic variation in ZmSO contributes to ABA response and drought tolerance in maize seedlings
Water scarcity impairs maize growth and yield. Identification and deployment of superior drought-tolerance alleles is desirable for the genetic improvement of stress tolerance in maize.

Sulfite oxidase activity in Thiobacillus novellus [PDF]
Thiobacillus novellus shows a maximum induction of sulfite oxidase activity and a maximum growth rate as a result of supplementing the autotrophic growth medium with 4.0 microM ammonium molybdate. Cells grown in the presence of molybdate showed approximately 10-fold increases in the amount of enzyme-associated molybdenum and in the sulfite-to ...

Expression of Some Molybdoenzyme Genes under Salt Stress Conditions in Chickpea, Bean and Lentil Plants [PDF]
The objective of this work is to isolate mARC, XDH1, AAO3, NIA1, SO and ABA3/LOS5 genes in three legume species submitted to salt stress with molybdenum and nitrogen, the growth conditions (T1: control, T2: both molybdenum and nitrogen added, T3: sodium ...

Structural Insights into Sulfite Oxidase Deficiency [PDF]
Sulfite oxidase deficiency is a lethal genetic disease that results from defects either in the genes encoding proteins involved in molybdenum cofactor biosynthesis or in the sulfite oxidase gene itself. Several point mutations in the sulfite oxidase gene have been identified from patients suffering from this disease worldwide.

Characterizing fruit ripening in plantain and Cavendish bananas: A proteomics approach [PDF]
The fruit physiology of banana cultivars other than Cavendish is poorly understood. To study the ripening process, samples were taken daily from plantain and Cavendish bananas and the ripening stages were determined. We present data from the green to the

Concanavalin A-Nonbinding Enzymes of Crotalus scutulatus scutulatus Venom [PDF]
Crotalus scutulatus scutulatus crude venom was separated into two fractions by Concanavalin A Sepharose 4B affinity chromatography. The Concanavalin A-nonbinding fraction (F-l) exhibited phosphomonoesterase (orthophosphoric monoester phosphohydrolase EC ...

Arachnomelia syndrome in Simmental cattle is caused by a homozygous 2-bp deletion in the molybdenum cofactor synthesis step 1 gene (MOCS1) [PDF]
Background Arachnomelia syndrome is an autosomal recessive inherited disease in cattle. Affected calves die around birth and show malformations of the skeleton mainly affecting the legs, the spinal column and the skull.

Structural Insights into the Incorporation of the Mo Cofactor into Sulfite Oxidase from Site-Directed Spin Labeling [PDF]
Mononuclear molybdoenzymes catalyze a broad range of redox reactions and are highly conserved in all kingdoms of life. This study addresses the question of how the Mo cofactor (Moco) is incorporated into the apo form of human sulfite oxidase (hSO) by ...
