Enzymic formation of thiamine pyrophosphate in plants.

open access: yesJournal of Nutritional Science and Vitaminology, 1975
Evidence was presented by paper chromatographic analysis on the occurrence of an enzyme capable of catalyzing a pyrophosphate transfer from ATP to thiamine in green leaves of various plants. The exclusive localization of the enzyme activity in the 105,000 X g supernatant (in a soluble form) was demonstrated by differential centrifugation of a cell ...

Role of riboswitches in gene regulation and their potential for algal biotechnology. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Riboswitches are regulatory elements in messenger RNA to which specific ligands can bind directly in the absence of proteins. Ligand binding alters the mRNA secondary structure, thereby affecting expression of the encoded protein.

Oxidative decarboxylation of retinoic acid in microsomes of rat liver and kidney

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1968
Liver and kidney microsomes have been found to catalyze a rapid decarboxylation of retinoic acid in vitro. The reaction requires NADPH and Fe2+, and is further stimulated by the presence of pyrophosphate.

The roles of B vitamins in phytoplankton nutrition: new perspectives and prospects [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
B vitamins play essential roles in central metabolism. These organic water-soluble molecules act as, or as part of, coenzymes within the cell. Unlike land plants, many eukaryotic algae are auxotrophic for certain B vitamins.

Thiamine deficiency in alcoholics with normal body mass index

open access: yesJournal of Dr. NTR University of Health Sciences, 2019
Background: Ethanol consumption leads to nutritional deficiency due to various causes. Well known theoretical as well as literature supports the hypothesis on dietary factors, metabolic derangement and alcohol per se produces empty calories.

Folding Kinetics of Riboswitch Transcriptional Terminators and Sequesterers

open access: yesEntropy, 2013
To function as gene regulatory elements in response to environmental signals, riboswitches must adopt specific secondary structures on appropriate time scales.

Characterization of the Human Mitochondrial Thiamine Pyrophosphate Transporter SLC25A19 Minimal Promoter: a Role for NF-Y in Regulating Basal Transcription

open access: yesGene, 2013
Transcriptional regulation of expression of the human mitochondrial thiamine pyrophosphate transporter (the product of the SLC25A19 gene) is unknown. To understand this regulation, we cloned and characterized the 5′-regulatory region of the SLC25A19 gene
