A novel gamma-N-methylaminobutyrate demethylating oxidase involved in catabolism of the tobacco alkaloid nicotine by Arthrobacter nicotinovorans pAO1 [PDF]
Nicotine catabolism, linked in Arthrobacter nicotinovorans to the presence of the megaplasmid pAO1, leads to the formation of gamma-N-methylaminobutyrate from the pyrrolidine ring of the alkaloid.

Methylene tetrahydrofolate dehydrogenase/cyclohydrolase and the synthesis of 10‐CHO‐THF are essential inLeishmania major [PDF]
Summary10‐Formyl tetrahydrofolate (10‐CHO‐THF) is a key metabolite in C1 carbon metabolism, arising through the action of formate‐tetrahydrofolate ligase (FTL) and/or 5,10‐methenyltetrahydrofolate cyclohydrolase/5,10‐methylene tetrahydrofolate dehydrogenase (DHCH).Leishmania majorpossesses singleDHCH1andFTLgenes encoding exclusively cytosolic proteins,

Comparative biochemistry of CO2 fixation and the evolution of autotrophy [PDF]
Carbon dioxide fixation is a polyphyletic trait that has evolved in widely separated prokaryotic branches. The three principal CO2-assimilation pathways are (i) the reductive pentose-phosphate cycle, i. e.

Genome-Resolved Proteomic Stable Isotope Probing of Soil Microbial Communities Using 13CO2 and 13C-Methanol. [PDF]
Stable isotope probing (SIP) enables tracking the nutrient flows from isotopically labeled substrates to specific microorganisms in microbial communities. In proteomic SIP, labeled proteins synthesized by the microbial consumers of labeled substrates are

Biochemical and haematological aspects of ethanol metabolism in humans : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Biochemistry at Massey University, New Zealand [PDF]
Macrocytosis or raised mean cell volume (MCV) (which as measured by the Coulter S counter) is one of the results of alcohol abuse. There is a need to identify (chronic) alcoholics by laboratory tests.
