Formate dehydrogenases (FDHs) are enzymes that catalyze the formate oxidation to carbon dioxide and that contain either Mo or W in a mononuclear form in the active site. In the present work, the influence of Mo and W salts on the production of FDH by Desulfovibrio alaskensis NCIMB 13491 was studied. Two different FDHs, one containing W (W-FDH) and a second incorporating either Mo or W (Mo/W-FDH...

Focal dermal hypoplasia (FDH) is a rare syndrome of severe developmental anomalies of the tissues and organs derived from ectoderm and mesoderm. Though data have suggested that FDH is an X-linked dominant trait associated with male hemizygote lethality, a hypothesis supported by the observation of three unrelated infants with FDH manifestations and de novo chromosome rearrangements involving Xp...

Familial dysalbuminemic hyperthyroxinemia (FDH) is an inherited disease characterized by increased circulating total thyroxine (T4) levels and normal physiological thyroid function. Heterozygous albumin gene (ALB) variants have been reported to be the underlying cause of FDH. To our knowledge, there have been no confirmed FDH cases in Korea. We recently observed a female patient with mild T4 el...

BACKGROUND Goltz syndrome or focal dermal hypoplasia (FDH) is an uncommon multisystem disorder. Herein, we report a typical case of FDH with unilateral ocular, cutaneous and skeletal features. CASE PRESENTATION a 4-year-old girl presented with microphthalmos and iris coloboma of the left eye, facial asymmetry, and a low-set protruding ear. Cutaneous changes included hypopigmented atrophic mac...

NAD(+)-dependent formate dehydrogenase (FDH, EC 1.2.1.2) widely occurs in nature. FDH consists of two identical subunits and contains neither prosthetic groups nor metal ions. This type of FDH was found in different microorganisms (including pathogenic ones), such as bacteria, yeasts, fungi, and plants. As opposed to microbiological FDHs functioning in cytoplasm, plant FDHs localize in mitochon...

Familial dysalbuminaemic hyperthyroxinaemia (FDH) can be confused with thyrotoxicosis if clinical signs and laboratory tests are misinterpreted. We describe three members of the same family with FDH who were erroneously treated for thyrotoxicosis. Screening of other family members resulted in the discovery of a further six patients at risk of being misdiagnosed as thyrotoxic. Clinical and bioch...

In this paper, we aim to overcome three major shortcomings of the FDH (Free Disposal Hull) directional distance function through developing two new, named Linear and Fractional CDFDH, complete FDH measures of efficiency. To accomplish this, we integrate the concepts of similarity and FDH directional distance function. We prove that the proposed measures are translation invariant and unit invari...
