Crystallization behaviour of glyceraldehyde dehydrogenase from Thermoplasma acidophilum. [PDF]

Acta Crystallogr F Struct Biol Commun, 2015
S.1475-1480The glyceraldehyde dehydrogenase from Thermoplasma acidophilum (TaAlDH) is a microbial enzyme that catalyzes the oxidation of D-glyceraldehyde to D-glycerate in the artificial enzyme cascade designed for the conversion of glucose to the ...

Flagellation and swimming motility of Thermoplasma acidophilum [PDF]

Journal of Bacteriology, 1979
Electron microscopy of thin sections of Thermoplasma acidophilum confirmed previous observations of the absence of a typical cell wall in this organism. Negatively stained specimens revealed the almost consistent occurrence in both strains examined of monotrichously arranged flagella, about 9 micrometer long, which describe a sinuous curve with a ...

Ultrastructure of lipopolysaccharide isolated from Thermoplasma acidophilum [PDF]

Journal of Bacteriology, 1975
The fine structure of lipopolysaccharide isolated from Thermoplasma acidophilum was examined by electron microscopy. Negative staining of the lipopolysaccharide revealed long, ribbon-like structures with some branching. The average width of the lipopolysaccharide ribbons was 5 nm.

Characterization of the Cdc6 Homologues from the Euryarchaeon Thermoplasma acidophilum. [PDF]

Open Biochem J, 2008
Archaeal cell division cycle protein 6 (Cdc6) homologues are thought to be involved in the initiation process of DNA replication. In the present study, a biochemical characterization of the two Cdc6 proteins from the archaeon Thermoplasma acidophilum has been performed.

Crystal structure of a GCN5‐related N‐acetyltransferase from Lactobacillus curiae

Acta Crystallographica Section F, Volume 79, Issue 8, Page 217-223, August 2023., 2023
The 3D structure of a GCN5‐related N‐acetyltransferase enzyme that is selective for canavanine has been elucidated and shown to share the fold and catalytic mechanism of the polyamine acetyltransferase subclass.Members of the GCN5‐related N‐acetyltransferase (GNAT) family are found in all domains of life and are involved in processes ranging from ...

Impact of age-associated cyclopurine lesions on DNA repair helicases. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2014
8,5' cyclopurine deoxynucleosides (cPu) are locally distorting DNA base lesions corrected by nucleotide excision repair (NER) and proposed to play a role in neurodegeneration prevalent in genetically defined Xeroderma pigmentosum (XP) patients.

Discovery of a novel transcriptional regulator of sugar catabolism in archaea

Molecular Microbiology, Volume 120, Issue 2, Page 224-240, August 2023., 2023
A novel transcriptional regulator, GfcR, has been identified that activates the degradation pathways of glucose, fructose, galactose and glycerol in the archaeon Haloferax volcanii. GfcR comprises a phosphoribosyltransferase domain with an N‐terminal helix‐turn‐helix DNA‐binding motif.

Gluco‐oligosaccharides as potential prebiotics: Synthesis, purification, structural characterization, and evaluation of prebiotic effect

Comprehensive Reviews in Food Science and Food Safety, Volume 22, Issue 4, Page 2611-2651, July 2023., 2023
Abstract Prebiotics have long been used to modulate the gut microbiota and improve host health. Most established prebiotics are nondigestible carbohydrates, especially short‐chain oligosaccharides. Recently, gluco‐oligosaccharides (GlcOS) with 2–10 glucose residues and one or more O‐glycosidic linkage(s) have been found to exert prebiotic potentials ...
