Oxidative stress is a common feature shared by many diseases, including neurodegenerative diseases. Factors that contribute to cellular oxidative stress include elevated levels of reactive oxygen species, diminished availability of detoxify...
Applications of pulsed EPR spectroscopy to structural studies of sulfite oxidizing enzymes() [0.03%]
脉冲EPR光谱在亚硫酸盐氧化酶结构研究中的应用()

Eric L Klein et al.
Sulfite oxidizing enzymes (SOEs), including sulfite oxidase (SO) and bacterial sulfite dehydrogenase (SDH), catalyze the oxidation of sulfite (SO(3) (2-)) to sulfate (SO(4) (2-)). The active sites of SO and SDH are nearly identical, each ha...

Photosynthetic reaction centers (PRCs) employ multiple-step tunneling (hopping) to separate electrons and holes that ultimately drive the chemistry required for metabolism. We recently developed hopping maps that can be used to interpret th...
Recent advances in phenoxyl radical complexes of salen-type ligands as mixed-valent galactose oxidase models [0.03%]

The interplay between redox-active transition metal ions and redox-active ligands in metalloenzyme sites is an area of considerable research interest. Galactose oxidase (GO) is the archetypical example, catalyzing the aerobic oxidation of p...
Iron metabolism in aerobes: managing ferric iron hydrolysis and ferrous iron autoxidation [0.03%]
好氧生物的铁代谢:调控三价铁水解和二价铁自氧化反应
Daniel J Kosman
Daniel J Kosman
Aerobes and anaerobes alike express a plethora of essential iron enzymes; in the resting state, the iron atom(s) in these proteins are in the ferrous state. For aerobes, ferric iron is the predominant environmental valence form which, given...
