Structural Analysis of an Epitope Candidate of Triosephosphate Isomerase in Opisthorchis viverrini [PDF]
Opisthorchis viverrini, a parasitic trematode, was recategorized as a group 1 biological carcinogen because it causes opisthorchiasis, which may result in cholangiocarcinoma. A new strategy for controlling opisthorchiasis is needed because of issues such

The Role of Asn11 in Catalysis by Triosephosphate Isomerase. [PDF]
Four catalytic amino acids at triosephosphate isomerase (TIM) are highly conserved: N11, K13, H95, and E167. Asparagine 11 is the last of these to be characterized in mutagenesis studies. The ND2 side chain atom of N11 is hydrogen bonded to the O-1 hydroxyl of enzyme-bound dihydroxyacetone phosphate (DHAP), and it sits in an extended chain of hydrogen ...

Species-Specific Inactivation of Triosephosphate Isomerase from Trypanosoma brucei: Kinetic and Molecular Dynamics Studies [PDF]
Human African Trypanosomiasis (HAT), a disease that provokes 2184 new cases a year in Sub-Saharan Africa, is caused by Trypanosoma brucei. Current treatments are limited, highly toxic, and parasite strains resistant to them are emerging. Therefore, there

Nine cDNA clones of human adult liver triosephosphate (TP) isomerase have been isolated and characterized. All nine appear to be derived from a single mRNA species. DNA sequencing of one clone, designated pHTPI-5a, defined the last two nucleotides of the methionine initiation codon, the entire 744-nucleotide coding region of the mature polypeptide, and
