The reactions of 1,10-phenanthroline with yeast alcohol dehydrogenase [PDF]
Freshly prepared samples of yeast alcohol dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.1) were inhibited by 1,10-phenanthroline at pH 7.0 and 0 degrees C in a two-stage process. The first step appeared to be slowly established, but was rendered reversible by removal of reagent or by addition of excess Zn2+ ions.

Stereoselective Biotransformation: Transfer of Learning to Advance Drug Metabolism and Biocatalysis
Understanding stereoselective biotransformations has implications for predicting drug disposition and response and may also inspire novel biocatalytic and biomimetic strategies to address challenges in metabolite and API synthesis. ABSTRACT Chirality is an important determinant of drug action, as enantiomers can exhibit markedly different ...

The Primary Structure of Yeast Alcohol Dehydrogenase [PDF]
Eight different types of peptide mixtures from [14C]carboxymethylated yeast alcohol dehydrogenase were obtained using trypsin with or without prior maleylation of the substrate, chymotrypsin, pepsin, microbial proteases or CNBr. Each mixture was fractionated by exclusion chromatography and peptides were further purified on paper.

The Two Major Isozymes of Yeast Alcohol Dehydrogenase [PDF]
The structures of the two cytoplasmic isozymes of alcohol dehydrogenase in a haploid strain of the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae have been compared and related to a commercial preparation of the protein that was previously analyzed. The constitutive isozyme I (purified from a petite cell incapable of mitochondrial respiration) is found to correspond ...

Isomerization of an enzyme-coenzyme complex in yeast alcohol dehydrogenase-catalyzed reactions [PDF]
In this work, all the rate constants in the kinetic mechanism of the yeast alcohol dehydrogenase-catalyzed oxidation of ethanol by NAD+, at pH 7.0, 25°C, have been estimated.

Genome and transcriptome analysis of the food-yeast Candida utilis. [PDF]
The industrially important food-yeast Candida utilis is a Crabtree effect-negative yeast used to produce valuable chemicals and recombinant proteins. In the present study, we conducted whole genome sequencing and phylogenetic analysis of C. utilis, which

Inhibition of Yeast Alcohol Dehydrogenase by Alkylating Agents [PDF]
1 The kinetic parameters for the irreversible inhibition of yeast alcohol dehydrogenase by iodoacetate, bromopyruvate and N-ethylmaleimide have been measured. 2 For iodoacetate and bromopyruvate, the rate of inhibition decreases with increasing pH. It is concluded that the reaction is promoted by a positive centre on the enzyme with a pKa value of

Resurrecting ancestral alcohol dehydrogenases from yeast [PDF]
Modern yeast living in fleshy fruits rapidly convert sugars into bulk ethanol through pyruvate. Pyruvate loses carbon dioxide to produce acetaldehyde, which is reduced by alcohol dehydrogenase 1 (Adh1) to ethanol, which accumulates. Yeast later consumes the accumulated ethanol, exploiting Adh2, an Adh1 homolog differing by 24 (of 348) amino acids.

Glycerol dehydrogenase: Structure, specificity, and mechanism of a family III polyol dehydrogenase
Background: Bacillus stearothermophilus glycerol dehydrogenase (GlyDH) (glycerol:NAD+ 2-oxidoreductase, EC 1.1.1.6) catalyzes the oxidation of glycerol to dihydroxyacetone (1,3-dihydroxypropanone) with concomitant reduction of NAD+ to NADH.
