Purification of Porphobilinogen Deaminase and the Sequencing and Expression of thehemC Gene of Rhodobacter Capsulatus. [PDF]
Rhodobacter capsulatus uses the common tetrapyrrole pathway to synthesize heme, bacteriochlorophyll, siroheme and vitamin B-12. As part of our studies on the regulation of this pathway, the product of the hemC gene, porphobilinogen deaminase was purified

Inhibition of uroporphyrinogen decarboxylase activity. The role of cytochrome P-450-mediated uroporphyrinogen oxidation [PDF]
It was previously shown that uroporphyrinogen oxidation is catalysed by a form of cytochrome P-450 induced by 3-methylcholanthrene [Sinclair, Lambrecht & Sinclair (1987) Biochem. Biophys. Res. Commun. 146, 1324-1329]. We have now measured uroporphyrinogen oxidation and uroporphyrinogen decarboxylation simultaneously in 10,000 g supernatants from ...

Summary Pigments, as coloured secondary metabolites, endow the world with a rich palette of colours. They primarily originate from plants and microorganisms and play crucial roles in their survival and adaptation processes. In this article, we categorize pigments based on their chemical structure into flavonoids, carotenoids, pyrroles, quinones ...

Abstract The growing environmental pressure of the animal food chain requires a system shift toward more sustainable diets based on alternative protein sources. Emerging alternative protein sources, such as faba bean, mung bean, lentil, black gram, cowpea, quinoa, hemp, leaf proteins, microalgae, and duckweeds, are being explored for their potential in

Porphyria cutanea tarda, dermatomyositis and non-Hodgkin lymphoma in virus C infection [PDF]
Virus C infection has been associated with a broad spectrum of extrahepatic diseases such as essential mixed cryoglobulinemia, membranous glomerulonephritis, vasculitis, rheumatoid arthritis and lupus erythematosus.

An assay of uroporphyrinogen decarboxylase in erythrocytes.
Abstract Measurement of uroporphyrinogen decarboxylase (UROD; EC 4.1.1.37) activity in erythrocytes is useful in distinguishing between familial porphyria cutanea tarda (PCT), in which UROD activities are low, and acquired PCT, in which UROD activity is normal. In this method for measuring UROD, pentacarboxylic acid porphyrinogen I (PPI)

Herbicides as fungicides: Targeting heme biosynthesis in the maize pathogen Ustilago maydis
Flumioxazin, a heme biosynthesis inhibitor and the active ingredient in the herbicide BroadStar, impairs the virulence of Ustilago maydis on maize. Abstract Pathogens must efficiently acquire nutrients from host tissue to proliferate, and strategies to block pathogen access therefore hold promise for disease control.
