A high yield optimized method for the production of acylated ACPs enabling the analysis of enzymes involved in .

Biochemistry and biophysics reports

Lauciello L, Lack G, Scapozza L, Perozzo R.
PMID: 28955970
Biochem Biophys Rep. 2016 Oct 06;8:310-317. doi: 10.1016/j.bbrep.2016.09.017. eCollection 2016 Dec.

The natural substrates of the enzymes involved in type-II fatty acid biosynthesis (FAS-II) are acylated acyl carrier proteins (acyl-ACPs). The state of the art method to produce acyl-ACPs involves the transfer of a phosphopantetheine moiety from CoA to apo-ACP...

Does the transport of oxaloacetate across the inner mitochondrial membrane during gluconeogenesis require carrier proteins other than those used in the malate-aspartate shuttle?.

Biochemical education

Darvey IG.
PMID: 10722937
Biochem Educ. 2000 Mar 01;28(2):80-82.

When authors of general biochemistry textbooks mention carrier proteins involved in the transport of oxaloacetate across the inner mitochondrial membrane for gluconeogenesis, they only make use of the two transporters involved in the malate-aspartate shuttle. As a result of...

Design and Synthesis of Transition State Analogs for Induction of Hydride Transfer Catalytic Antibodies.

The Journal of organic chemistry

Schröer J, Sanner M, Reymond JL.
PMID: 11671707
J Org Chem. 1997 May 16;62(10):3220-3229. doi: 10.1021/jo962179v.

Alcohol dehydrogenases and related aldehyde reductase enzymes catalyze the oxidation of alcohols to aldehydes and the simultaneous reduction of a nicotinamide derivative (NAD(+) or NADP(+)) to the corresponding 1,4-dihydronicotinamide. Herein we report the design and synthesis of a stable...

[Role of uncoupling proteins in the pathogenesis of obesity and type II diabetes].

Yi chuan = Hereditas

Wan CL, Ahang TM, Wang L, Yang Z, Feng F.
PMID: 15639857
Yi Chuan. 2003 Mar;25(2):211-20.

Uncoupling proteins (UCPs) are mitochondria carrier proteins,which are able to dissipate the proton gradient of the inner mitochondria membrane. The uncoupling procedure reduces the amount of ATP generated through an oxidation of fuels. Therefore, UCPs are suggested as candidate...

Nitrate absorption by corn roots : inhibition by phenylglyoxal.

Plant physiology

Dhugga KS, Waines JG, Leonard RT.
PMID: 16665983
Plant Physiol. 1988 Mar;86(3):759-63. doi: 10.1104/pp.86.3.759.

Nitrate transport in excised corn (Zea mays L.) roots was inhibited by phenylglyoxal, but not by 4,4'-diisothiocyano-2,2'-stilbene disulfonic acid (DIDS) or fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC). Inhibition of nitrate uptake by a 1-hour treatment with 1 millimolar phenylglyoxal was reversed after...

Inactivation of highly activated spinach leaf sucrose-phosphate synthase by dephosphorylation.

Plant physiology

Huber JL, Hite DR, Outlaw WH, Huber SC.
PMID: 16667968
Plant Physiol. 1991 Jan;95(1):291-7. doi: 10.1104/pp.95.1.291.

Spinach (Spinacia oleracea L.) leaf sucrose-phosphate synthase (SPS) can be phosphorylated and inactivated in vitro with [gamma-(32)P]ATP (JLA Huber, SC Huber, TH Nielsen [1989] Arch Biochem Biophys 270: 681-690). Thus, it was surprising to find that SPS, extracted from...

Transport and accumulation of flavonoids in grapevine (Vitis vinifera L.).

Plant signaling & behavior

Braidot E, Zancani M, Petrussa E, Peresson C, Bertolini A, Patui S, Macrì F, Vianello A.
PMID: 19513253
Plant Signal Behav. 2008 Sep;3(9):626-32. doi: 10.4161/psb.3.9.6686.

Flavonoids are a group of secondary metabolites widely distributed in plants that represent a huge portion of the soluble phenolics present in grapevine (Vitis vinifera L.). These compounds play different physiological roles and are often involved in protection against...

Cholelithiasis: genetic hypothesis.

Minerva gastroenterologica e dietologica

Sanchez-Mete L, Attili AF.
PMID: 16498349
Minerva Gastroenterol Dietol. 2000 Mar;46(1):45-55.

In inbred mice gallstone susceptibility is determined by Lith (lithogenic) genes which promote cholesterol hypersecretion in bile as a response to a high-fat diet. At least three major classes of proteins can be considered as candidate genes: (a) enzymes...

The design of semi-synthetic and synthetic glycoconjugate vaccines.

Expert opinion on drug discovery

Costantino P, Rappuoli R, Berti F.
PMID: 22646863
Expert Opin Drug Discov. 2011 Oct;6(10):1045-66. doi: 10.1517/17460441.2011.609554. Epub 2011 Sep 06.

INTRODUCTION: Glycoconjugate vaccines are among the safest and most efficacious vaccines developed during the last 30 years. They are a potent tool for prevention of life-threatening bacterial infectious diseases like meningitis and pneumonia. The concept of hapten-carrier conjugation is...

Saliva tests, part 1: clinical use, elements of testing, and guidelines for posttreatment interpretation.

International journal of pharmaceutical compounding

Kells J, Dollbaum CM.
PMID: 23966517
Int J Pharm Compd. 2009 Jul-Aug;13(4):280-8.

Saliva is an excellent medium for the measurement of the biologically active fraction of steroid hormones in the bloodstream because it is a natural ultrafiltrate of blood, and steroids not bound by carrier proteins in the blood freely diffuse...

Uncoupling Protein 2 in Cardiovascular Health and Disease.

Frontiers in physiology

Tian XY, Ma S, Tse G, Wong WT, Huang Y.
PMID: 30116205
Front Physiol. 2018 Aug 02;9:1060. doi: 10.3389/fphys.2018.01060. eCollection 2018.

Uncoupling protein 2 (UCP2) belongs to the family of mitochondrial anion carrier proteins. It uncouples oxygen consumption from ATP synthesis. UCP2 is ubiquitously expressed in most cell types to reduce oxidative stress. It is tightly regulated at the transcriptional,...

Boosting the free fatty acid synthesis of Escherichia coli by expression of a cytosolic Acinetobacter baylyi thioesterase.

Biotechnol Biofuels. 2012 Oct 11;5(1):76. doi: 10.1186/1754-6834-5-76.

BACKGROUND: Thioesterases remove the fatty acyl moiety from the fatty acyl-acyl carrier proteins (ACPs), releasing them as free fatty acids (FFAs), which can be further used to produce a variety of fatty acid-based biofuels, such as biodiesel, fatty alcohols...
