Tirandamycin biosynthesis is mediated by co-dependent oxidative enzymes
Elucidation of natural product biosynthetic pathways provides important insights into the assembly of potent bioactive molecules, and expands access to unique enzymes able to selectively modify complex substrates. Here, we show full reconstitution, in vitro, of an unusual multi-step oxidative cascade for post-assembly-line tailoring of tirandamycin antibiotics. This pathway involves a remarkabl...
متن کاملInhibition of prostaglandin H2 synthases by salicylate is dependent on the oxidative state of the enzymes.
At antipyretic and analgesic doses, salicylate has no antiplatelet or anti-inflammatory effects, unlike typical inhibitors of the prostaglandin H synthases (PGHSs). We demonstrated that salicylate inhibits PGHS-1 and -2 with a potency inversely related to ambient hydroperoxide concentrations. Salicylate inhibition of PGHS-1 was prevented by 12-hydroperoxyeicosatetraenoic acid (12-HPETE). Increa...
متن کاملCellulose degradation by oxidative enzymes
Enzymatic degradation of plant biomass has attracted intensive research interest for the production of economically viable biofuels. Here we present an overview of the recent findings on biocatalysts implicated in the oxidative cleavage of cellulose, including polysaccharide monooxygenases (PMOs or LPMOs which stands for lytic PMOs), cellobiose dehydrogenases (CDHs) and members of carbohydrate-...
متن کاملOxidative damage to mitochondria is mediated by the Ca(2+)-dependent inner-membrane permeability transition.
The ability of O2 metabolites derived from the xanthine-xanthine oxidase system to inhibit mitochondrial function was examined using freshly isolated rat liver mitochondria. Under 2,4-dinitrophenol-uncoupled conditions, mitochondria exposed to free radicals exhibited a significant decrease in O2 consumption supported by NAD(+)-linked substrates, but showed almost no change in O2 consumption in ...
متن کاملLiver Oxidative Stress after Renal Ischemia-Reperfusion Injury is Leukocyte Dependent in Inbred Mice
Objective(s) There are some reports in recent years indicating that renal ischemia - reperfusion (IR) induces deleterious changes in remote organs such as liver. The aim of this study was to investigate whether leukocytes have a role on the induction of oxidative stress in liver after renal IR. Materials and Methods Inbred mice in IR donor group were subjected to renal IR injury. In sham don...
