The sucrose synthase (SuSy) gene family plays a crucial role in the metabolism of sucrose in plants, which is essential for energy allocation and growth. Sucrose synthase enzymes are responsible ...

Aim: We evaluated a novel treatment for obesity-related renal, an ATP-citrate lyase (ACL) inhibitor ... that BMS-303141 administration could decrease the levels of serum lipid and renal lipogenic ...

The enzyme is present in plasma and requires activation by calcium ; hence absence or delay of coagulation of medium containing citrate. Further, when spermatozoa are freed from this enzyme ...

In eukaryotes, PUFAs can be de novo synthesized through two independent biosynthetic pathways: the desaturase/elongase pathway and the PUFA synthase pathway. Among them, PUFAs synthesized through the ...

This is an important and solid study that examines the role of TFAM, a protein that helps maintain mtDNA, in mtDNA mutator mice. The authors have demonstrated that TFAM's counteractive role in mtDNA ...

pH is a measure of how acidic or alkaline a solution is. The diagram below shows what happens to an enzyme when denaturation occurs. Each enzyme has an optimum pH but it also has a working range ...

There is a general assumption that NO synthase (NOS) 2 in epithelium is the main source of NO in exhaled breath. However, there is no direct evidence to support the assumption and data from animal ...

It is a unique member of the plastic family as it can be broken down into its constituent units (or monomers) by PETases, which are enzymes that ... with its impressive activity at lower ...
