Flavin-based electron bifurcation is a newly discovered mechanism, by which a hydride electron pair from NAD(P)H, coenzyme F420H2, H2, or formate is split by flavoproteins into one-electron with a more negative reduction potential and one with a more ...

A PHGDH inhibitor reveals coordination of serine synthesis and one-carbon unit fate [PDF]
Serine is a both a proteinogenic amino acid and the source of one-carbon units essential for de novo purine and deoxythymidine synthesis. In the canonical glucose-derived serine synthesis pathway, Homo sapiens phosphoglycerate dehydrogenase (PHGDH ...

Draft Genome of Pseudomonas sp. Strain 11/12A, Isolated from Lake Washington Sediment. [PDF]
We announce here the genome sequencing of Pseudomonas sp. strain 11/12A from Lake Washington sediment. From the genome content, a versatile lifestyle is predicted but not one of bona fide methylotrophy.

A text-mining system for extracting metabolic reactions from full-text articles [PDF]
Background: Increasingly biological text mining research is focusing on the extraction of complex relationships relevant to the construction and curation of biological networks and pathways. However, one important category of pathway—metabolic pathways—

The role of tetrahydrofolate dehydrogenase in the hepatic supply of tetrahydrobiopterin in rats [PDF]
The reduction of 7,8-dihydrobiopterin to 5,6,7,8-tetrahydrobiopterin by rat liver tetrahydrofolate dehydrogenase (5,6,7,8-tetrahydrofolate-NADP+ oxidoreductase, EC 1.5.1.3) is competitively inhibited by trimethoprim lactate (apparent Ki 0.285 muM). An apparent Michaelis constant of 43 muM for dihydrobiopterin was obtained, which is 430 times higher ...
