Metagenome Analysis: a Powerful Tool for Enzyme Bioprospecting.

Applied biochemistry and biotechnology

Madhavan A, Sindhu R, Parameswaran B, Sukumaran RK, Pandey A.
PMID: 28815469
Appl Biochem Biotechnol. 2017 Oct;183(2):636-651. doi: 10.1007/s12010-017-2568-3. Epub 2017 Aug 16.

Microorganisms are found throughout every corner of nature, and vast number of microorganisms is difficult to cultivate by classical microbiological techniques. The advent of metagenomics has revolutionized the field of microbial biotechnology. Metagenomics allow the recovery of genetic material...

Validation of the performance of a comprehensive genotyping assay panel of single nucleotide polymorphisms in drug metabolism enzyme genes.

Human mutation

Welch RA, Lazaruk K, Haque KA, Hyland F, Xiao N, Wronka L, Burdett L, Chanock SJ, Ingber D, De La Vega FM, Yeager M.
PMID: 18327779
Hum Mutat. 2008 May;29(5):750-6. doi: 10.1002/humu.20703.

A class of genes, known as drug metabolism enzymes (DMEs) are responsible for the metabolism and transport of drugs and other xenobiotics. Variation in DME genes most likely accounts for a proportion of the variability in drug response in...

Puzzling over orphan enzymes.

Cellular and molecular life sciences : CMLS

Lespinet O, Labedan B.
PMID: 16465439
Cell Mol Life Sci. 2006 Mar;63(5):517-23. doi: 10.1007/s00018-005-5520-6.

Despite the current availability of several hundreds of thousands of amino acid sequences, more than 39% of the well-defined enzyme activities (EC numbers) are not associated with any sequence in major public databases. This wide gap separating knowledge of...

The importance of ensemble averaging in enzyme kinetics.

Accounts of chemical research

Masgrau L, Truhlar DG.
PMID: 25539028
Acc Chem Res. 2015 Feb 17;48(2):431-8. doi: 10.1021/ar500319e. Epub 2014 Dec 24.

CONSPECTUS: The active site of an enzyme is surrounded by a fluctuating environment of protein and solvent conformational states, and a realistic calculation of chemical reaction rates and kinetic isotope effects of enzyme-catalyzed reactions must take account of this...

Thematic minireview series on enzyme evolution in the post-genomic era.

The Journal of biological chemistry

Allewell NM.
PMID: 22069328
J Biol Chem. 2012 Jan 02;287(1):1-2. doi: 10.1074/jbc.R111.307322. Epub 2011 Nov 08.

The emergence of genomics; ongoing computational advances; and the development of large-scale sequence, structural, and functional databases have created important new interdisciplinary linkages between molecular evolution, molecular biology, and enzymology. The five minireviews in this series survey advances and...
