Enzymatic Studies of Glucuronide Formation in Impaired Liver I. Assay Methods For the Determination of Glucuronyl Transferase Activity and Uridine Diphosphate Glucuronic Acid Content of Liver Tissue Using 4-Methyl Umbelliferone as a Glucuronide Receptor; Its Application to Needle Liver Biopsy Tissues [PDF]

, 1962
An attempt was made to apply the method devised by ARIAS for the determination of liver glucuronyl transferase activity using 4-methyl umbelliferone as a glucuronide receptor to the small amounts of liver tissue obtained by needle biopsy.

A Synergistic Inhibitor Development Strategy Against Human UDP‐Galactose‐4‐Epimerase

Angewandte Chemie International Edition, EarlyView.
The epimerase GalE is crucial for the biosynthesis of cancer‐relevant O‐GalNAc glycans. Here, we employ orthogonal, structurally enabled small molecule fragment screens to yield both covalent and non‐covalent inhibitors against GalE within no more than 22 elaborated compounds.

Hidden O‐Deglycosylation Activity Triggers O → C Rearrangement for Aryl Di‐C‐Glucoside Formation by the C‐Glycosyltransferase From Fortunella crassifolia

Biotechnology and Bioengineering, EarlyView.
Here, we uncovered an unexpected O‐deglycosylation activity of the C glycosyltransferase (FcCGT), forming phloretin (1) from phloretin 2'‐O‐glucoside (2). In the presence of UDP, FcCGT catalyzes the O→C rearrangement to yield nothofagin (3). Upon additional UDP‐glucose, further C‐glycosylation occurs, forming phloretin 3',5'‐di‐C‐glucoside (4 ...

The Sulfoquinovosyltransferase-like Enzyme SQD2.2 is Involved in Flavonoid Glycosylation, Regulating Sugar Metabolism and Seed Setting in Rice

Scientific Reports, 2017
Seed setting is an important trait that contributes to seed yield and relies greatly on starch accumulation. In this study, a sulfoquinovosyl transferase-like protein, designated as SQD2.2 involved in seed setting and flavonoid accumulation, was ...

Overexpression of UDP-glucose dehydrogenase from Larix gmelinii enhances growth and cold tolerance in transgenic Arabidopsis thaliana

Biologia Plantarum, 2017
Uridine diphosphate glucose dehydrogenase (UGDH) plays an important role in biosynthesis of hemicellulose by catalyzing oxidation of UDP-glucose (UDP-Glc) to UDP-glucuronate (UDP-GlcA), a key sugar nucleotide involved in biosynthesis of the plant cell ...

Berberine alleviates cell pyroptosis in diabetic retinopathy by regulating AKT1, JUN, and STAT3

Ibrain, EarlyView.
Berberine alleviates diabetic retinopathy by reducing pyroptosis through AKT1/JUN/STAT3 regulation, as validated in rat models via network pharmacology, molecular docking, and experimental assays. Abstract Berberine (BBR) exerts an effective protection for diabetic retinopathy (DR), but the underlying key molecular mechanism remains unknown; this study

Oncogenic KRAS Rewires Stress Granule Dynamics: Mechanisms and Therapeutic Opportunities

The Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Stress granules (SGs) are dynamic, membrane‐less structures that form in response to various cellular stresses, including metabolic, oxidative, and therapeutic challenges. They function as adaptive hubs and reorganize protein synthesis and signaling networks to help cells survive under stress. In cancer, these condensates are often hijacked to
