An intracellular protein intermediate for hemoglobin formation.
Iron and amino acids enter young red cells and are incorporated into hemoglobin, but the pathway of iron after entering the erythroblast is not understood nor is it clear in what sequence iron, protoporphyrin, and globin join to form a complete hemoglobin molecule. Several lines of evidence have suggested the presence of an intracellular, nonheme iron protein that may be an intermediate in the ...
متن کاملIdentification of Intracellular Sources Responsible for Endogenous Reactive Oxygen Species Formation
The endogenous reactive oxygen species ("ROS") formation is associated with many pathologic states such as inflammatory diseases, neurodegenerative diseases, brain and heart ischemic injuries, cancer, and aging. The purpose of this study was to investigate the endogenous sources for "ROS" formation in intact isolated rat hepatocytes, in particular, peroxisomal oxidases, monoamine oxidase, xanth...

متن کاملProtein complex directs hemoglobin-to-hemozoin formation in Plasmodium falciparum.
Malaria parasites use hemoglobin (Hb) as a major nutrient source in the intraerythrocytic stage, during which heme is converted to hemozoin (Hz). The formation of Hz is essential for parasite survival, but to date, the underlying mechanisms of Hb degradation and Hz formation are poorly understood. We report the presence of a ∼200-kDa protein complex in the food vacuole that is required for Hb d...
متن کاملBranched Intermediate Formation Stimulates Peptide Bond Cleavage in Protein Splicing
Protein splicing is a post-translational modification in which an intein domain excises itself out of a host protein. Here, we investigate how the steps in the splicing process are coordinated so as to maximize the production of the final splice products and minimize the generation of undesired cleavage products. Our approach has been to prepare a branched intermediate (and analogs thereof) of ...
