Characterization of a new acidic NAD(+)-dependent formate dehydrogenase from thermophilic fungus Chaetomium thermophilum
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE BV, 2015)
NAD(+)-dependent formate dehydrogenase (FDH) enzyme catalyses the NAD(P)(+)-dependent interconversion of formate anion to carbon dioxide coupled with the conversion of NAD(P)(+) to NAD(P)H. NADH is widely used as cofactor ...
Functional characterisation of the type 1 von Willebrand disease candidate VWF gene variants: p. M771I, p. L881R and p. P1413L
(SIMTI Servizi, 2017)
Background. Abnormalities in the biosynthetic pathway or increased clearance of plasma von Willebrand factor (VWF) are likely to contribute to decreased plasma VWF levels in inherited type 1 von Willebrand disease (VWD). ...
A common VWF exon 28 haplotype in the Turkish population
(Elsevier, 2013)
An increasing number of mutations and polymorphisms have been identified in the von Willebrand factor (VWF) gene of patients with von Willebrand disease (VWD). Most of the sequence alterations are within exon 28, duplicated ...
Mechanisms of peptide hydrolysis by aspartyl and metalloproteases
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2016)
Peptide hydrolysis has been involved in a wide range of biological, biotechnological, and industrial applications. In this perspective, the mechanisms of three distinct peptide bond cleaving enzymes, beta secretase (BACE1), ...
Novel N-(1-thia-4-azaspiro[4.5]decan-4-yl)carboxamide derivatives as potent and selective influenza virus fusion inhibitors
(Wiley, 2019)
Hemagglutinin is the surface protein of the influenza virus that mediates both binding and penetration of the virus into host cells. We here report on the synthesis and structure-activity relationship of some novel ...
Computational insight into the phthalocyanine-DNA binding via docking and molecular dynamics simulations
(Elsevier, 2018-12)
Phthalocyanines are considered as good DNA binders, which makes them promising anti-tumor drug leads. The purpose of this study is to investigate the interactions between DNA and quaternary metallophthalocyanine derivatives ...
HNF1A-MODY Mutations in Nuclear Localization Signal Impair HNF1A-Import Receptor KPNA6 Interactions
(Springer, 2021)
Mutations in hepatocyte nuclear factor (HNF)1A gene cause the most common form of Maturity-onset diabetes of the young (MODY), a monogenic subtype of diabetes mellitus. Functional characterization of mutant proteins reveals ...
De novo 8p23.1 deletion in a patient with absence epilepsy
(John Libbey Eurotext, 2017)
The 8p23.1 deletion syndrome is a rare multisystem disorder with high penetrance and a variable phenotypic spectrum that includes congenital heart disease (CHD), intellectual disability, behavioural problems, microcephalia, ...
Semi-rational design of geobacillus stearothermophilus l-lactate dehydrogenase to access various chiral ?-hydroxy acids
(Springer, 2016)
Chiral ?-hydroxy acids (AHAs) are rapidly becoming important synthetic building blocks, in particular for the production of pharmaceuticals and other fine chemicals. Chiral compounds of a variety of functionalities are now ...
p60-katanin: a novel interacting partner for p53
(Springer, 2020)
Katanin, one of the best-characterized microtubule (MT) severing proteins, is composed of two subunits: catalytic p60-katanin, and regulatory p80-katanin. p60-katanin triggers MT reorganization by severing them. MT ...
