Acylase I from Aspergillus melleus was immobilized on supports consisting of unmodified and modified silica. Modification was performed using 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane (APTES) and glutaraldehyde (GA). The effectiveness of immobilization was investigated using the standard Bradford method in addition to a number

Loss-of-function mutations in the transmembrane ABCC6 transport protein cause pseudoxanthoma elasticum (PXE), an ectopic, metabolic mineralization disorder that affects the skin, eye, and vessels. ABCC6 is assumed to mediate efflux of one or several small molecule compounds from the liver

Bromobenzene (800 mg/kg, ip) caused severe liver necrosis with massive hemorrhage in the golden Syrian hamster within the first 24 hr. Kidney injury was also observed. Treatment with N-acetylmethionine (NAM) at an ip dose of 1200 mg/kg at 5 hr

Incubation of catechol with mushroom tyrosinase in the presence of N-acetylmethionine resulted in the generation of an adduct. This product was identified to be N-acetylmethionyl catechol, on the basis of spectral characteristics and well-characterized chemical reaction of o-benzoquinone with N-acetylmethionine.

Biochemistry, 43(19), 5716-5727 (2004-05-12)
Divergent evolution of enzyme function is commonly explained by a gene duplication event followed by mutational changes that allow the protein encoded by the copy to acquire a new function. An alternate hypothesis is that this process is facilitated when
