“The combination of a multidomain protein for peptide modification and the discovery of a new oxygenase family will allow new avenues in natural products discovery and enzymology.” These ...

Austocystin D promotes cell death by damaging their DNA, a process which might be dependent on cytochrome P450 (CYP) oxygenase enzymes. Notably, austocystin D has shown significant activity ...

Proof of Concept is a video series profiling the science and scientists behind some of the environment’s most unexpected research. Pretty much all life on Earth – plants, animals, humans ...

Funck et al define a new type of guanidine forming enzyme. It was previously known that 2-oxogluturate oxygenase catalysis in bacteria can produce guanidine via oxidation of arginine. Interestingly, ...

Here’s how it works. Scientists studying a cousin of the bacteria responsible for tuberculosis and leprosy have discovered an enzyme that converts hydrogen into electricity, and they think it ...

Brazil The enzyme heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) has cytoprotective effects by catalyzing the degradation of heme to produce carbon monoxide, iron and biliverdin. Furthermore, HO-1 activity has been ...

Faculty of Life Sciences and Medicine, School of Cancer and Pharmaceutical Sciences, King’s College London, London, United Kingdom Heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) is an inducible intracellular enzyme that is ...

Beta-carotene converts to vitamin A with the help of an enzyme called beta-carotene oxygenase 1 (BCO1). A genetic variation determines if you have a more or less active version of BCO1.

Enzymes are proteins that act as catalysts in organisms, accelerating chemical reactions so they're fast enough to be practical and sustainable. Guo's research looked specifically at a non-heme-iron ...
