Transmembrane ion transport by polyphosphate/poly-(R)-3-hydroxybutyrate complexes.
Transmembrane ion transport, a critical process in providing energy for cell functions, is carried out by pore-forming macromolecules capable of discriminating among very similar ions and responding to changes in membrane potential. It is widely regarded that ion channels are exclusively proteins, relatively late arrivals in cell evolution. Here we discuss the formation of ion-selective, voltag...
متن کاملRole of β-hydroxybutyrate, its polymer poly-β-hydroxybutyrate and inorganic polyphosphate in mammalian health and disease
We provide a comprehensive review of the role of β-hydroxybutyrate (β-OHB), its linear polymer poly-β-hydroxybutyrate (PHB), and inorganic polyphosphate (polyP) in mammalian health and disease. β-OHB is a metabolic intermediate that constitutes 70% of ketone bodies produced during ketosis. Although ketosis has been generally considered as an unfavorable pathological state (e.g., diabetic ketoac...
متن کاملPoly-beta-hydroxybutyrate in the chemolithotrophic bacterium Ferrobacillus ferrooxidans.
Poly-f-hydroxybutyric acid (PHB) has been demonstrated in a wide range of bacteria, including both chemolithotrophic and photolithotrophic organisms. In the chemolithotrophic group, Schlegel, Gottschalk, and von Bartha (8) reported the formation and utilization of PHB in Hydrogenomonas, Lundgren et al. (4) extracted PHB from Ferrobacillusferrooxidans, and Tobback and Laudelout (10) chemically i...

Bacteriol. 89:245-251. 1965.-Poly-beta-hydroxybutyrate (PHB) from different bacterial genera was studied with regard to its crystal structure, infrared absorption, intrinsic viscosity, and electron microscopy. ...
متن کاملPrevalence of Heart Failure in the Cases of Beta-thalassemia Major; Two Years Follow-Up
Inroduction: Heart failure (HF) is an important cause of morbidity and mortality in the cases of Beta-thalassemia major. The purpose of this study was to estimate HF prevalence in these patients and to assess the survivability of those who were treated with intensive chelating therapy. Design and methods: This cross sectional study included 72 beta-thalassemia major cases, the mean age at t...
