Background and Objectives Both primary secondary cancers require the involvement of glycolytic pathways. Cancer cell proliferation leads to upregulation glycolysis, which results in increased glucose consumption. For demonstrating that umbelliferone can effectively bind several proteins involved pathway, thereby inhibiting glycolysis reducing cancer proliferation. Materials Methods This study u...

An alternative to 5-hydroxymethyl-2-furfural (HMF), which is a promising furan derivative that can be used as starting material for the preparation of non-petroleum-derived polymeric materials from sugars, 5-acetoxymethyl-2-furfural (AMF). The less-hydrophilic acetyl group AMF has advantages over hydroxy HMF in terms thermal stability and isolation. In previous studies, fructose been along with...

An alkaliphilic, thermophilic Bacillus sp. (NCIM 59) produced extracellular xylose isomerase at pH 10 and 50 degrees C by using xylose or wheat bran as the carbon source. The distribution of xylose isomerase as a function of growth in comparison with distributions of extra- and intracellular marker enzymes such as xylanase and beta-galactosidase revealed that xylose isomerase was truly secreted...

Englesberg, E. (University of Pittsburgh, Pittsburgh, Pa.), R L. Anderson, R. Weinberg, N. Lee, P. Hoffee, G. Huttenhauer, and H. Boyer. l-Arabinose-sensitive, l-ribulose 5-phosphate 4-epimerase-deficient mutants of Escherichia coli. J. Bacteriol. 84:137-146. 1962-l-Arabinose-negative mutants of Escherichia coli B/r, ara-53 and ara-139, are deficient in the enzyme l-ribulose 5-phosphate 4-epime...

Crude extracts of triple-cloned, purified cultures of 22 species of Mycoplasma and Acholeplasma were examined for expression of 21 isozyme systems routinely used to type mammalian cells. Nine previously described enzymes (purine nucleoside phosphorylase, adenylate kinase, dipeptidase, esterase, glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase, glucose phosphate isomerase, glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogen...
