Purification of Porphobilinogen Deaminase and the Sequencing and Expression of thehemC Gene of Rhodobacter Capsulatus. [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
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]

open access: yesBiochemical Journal, 1990
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 ...

Natural pigments derived from plants and microorganisms: classification, biosynthesis, and applications

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 23, Issue 2, Page 592-614, February 2025.
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 ...

Cloning, Sequencing and Regulation of the Rhodobacter capsulatushemE Gene. [PDF]

open access: yes, 1996
In Rhodobacter capsulatus, a purple nonsulfur bacterium, the tetrapyrrole pathway yields four end products: siroheme, vitamin B12, heme and bacteriochlorophyll. Growth of R.

Comparative Transcriptome Analysis Reveals Differential Mechanisms of Soft Rot Resistance in Lettuce Grown Under White and Blue Light

open access: yesFood and Energy Security, Volume 14, Issue 1, January/February 2025.
The present study reports the soft rot incidence, H2O2 accumulation, and antioxidase activities in lettuce grown under different light conditions and further investigates the underlying molecular mechanisms of blue light‐induced lettuce resistance against soft rot based on RNA‐seq data.

Intermediary metabolism [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Caenorhabditis elegans has orthologs for most of the key enzymes involved in eukaryotic intermediary metabolism, suggesting that the major metabolic pathways are probably present in this species.

A review of the toxicological effects and allergenic potential of emerging alternative protein sources

open access: yesComprehensive Reviews in Food Science and Food Safety, Volume 24, Issue 1, January 2025.
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

An assay of uroporphyrinogen decarboxylase in erythrocytes.

open access: yesClinical Chemistry, 1988
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

open access: yesMolecular Plant Pathology, Volume 25, Issue 11, November 2024.
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.
