  • Distribution of Membrane-Bound Monoamine Oxidase in Bacteria
    APPLIED AND ENVIRONMENTAL MICROBIOLOGY, Oct. 1979, p. 565-569 Vol. 38, No. 4 0099-2240/79/10-0565/05$02.00/0 Distribution of Membrane-Bound Monoamine Oxidase in Bacteria YOSHIKATSU MUROOKA,* NOBUYUKI DOI, AND TOKUYA HARADA The Institute ofScientific and Industrial Research, Osaka University, Yamadakami, Suita, Osaka (565), Japan Received for publication 22 March 1979 The distribution of membrane-bound monoamine oxidase in 30 strains of various bacteria was studied. Monoamine oxidase was determined by using an ammonia-selective electrode; analyses were sensitive and easy to perform. The enzyme was found in some strains of the family Enterobacteriaceae, such as Klebsiella, Enterobacter, Escherichia, Salmonella, Serratia, and Proteus. Among strains of other families of bacteria tested, only Pseudomonas aeruginosa IFO 3901, Micrococcus luteus IFO 12708, and Brevibacterium ammoniagenes IAM 1641 had monoamine oxidase activity. In all of these bacteria except B. ammoniagenes, monoamine oxidase was induced by tyramine and was highly specific for tyramine, octopamine, dopamine, and norepinephrine. The enzyme in two strains oxidized histamine or benzylamine. Correlations between the distri- butions of membrane-bound monoamine oxidase and arylsulfatase synthesized in the presence of tyramine were discussed. Monoamine oxidase catalyzes the oxidative monoamine oxidase had broad substrate speci- deamination of monoamines by the following ficity, the enzyme in bacteria can be assayed reaction: R-CH2NH2 + 02+ H20 -+ R-CHO + conveniently by potentiometric measurement of NH3 + H202. ammonia formation with an ammonia-selective The enzyme usually has a broad substrate electrode by the method used for the brain en- specificity in animals and plays a major role in zyme by Meyerson et al.

    INVESTIGATION OF A POSSIBLE MULTI-ENZYME COMPLEX INVOLVED IN NICOTINE BIOSYNTHESIS IN ROOTS OF TOBACCO (Nicotiana tabacum) by WILLIAM HEIM Thesis submitted to the Faculty of the Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University in partial fulfillment for the degree of MASTER OF LIFE SCIENCES in THE DEPARTMENT OF PLANT PATHOLOGY, PHYSIOLOGY, AND WEED SCIENCE with a Major Emphasis in PLANT PHYSIOLOGY APPROVED: ___________________________________ __________________ John Jelesko, Chairperson Date ___________________________________ __________________ Carole Cramer, Member Date ___________________________________ __________________ Fabricio Medina-Bolivar, Member Date August, 2003 Blacksburg, Virginia Keywords: Nicotiana tabacum, nicotine biosynthesis, diamine oxidase, N-methylputrescine oxidase, S-adenosylhomocysteine hydrolase, multi-enzyme complex, metabolon 2003 by William Heim ALL RIGHTS RESERVED INVESTIGATION OF A POSSIBLE MULTI-ENZYME COMPLEX INVOLVED IN NICOTINE BIOSYNTHESIS IN ROOTS OF TOBACCO (Nicotiana tabacum) by William Heim (Dr. John Jelesko, Chairperson) Department of Plant Pathology, Physiology, and Weed Science ABSTRACT N-methylputrescine oxidase (MPO) is a member of the diamine oxidase (DAO) class of enzymes believed to be responsible for synthesis of the alkaloid nicotine in the roots of Nicotiana tabacum (Mizusaki et al., 1972). A purportedly pure MPO protein from tobacco root culture extracts was used to generate immune antiserum in rabbits (McLauchlan et al., 1993). In an attempt to clone a cDNA encoding MPO, we used this antiserum to screen a tobacco cDNA expression library. Unexpectedly, two previously unreported genes with strong homology to members of a gene family encoding S-adenosylhomocysteine hydrolase (SAHH) in N. sylvestris and a gene encoding SAHH in N. tabacum were cloned instead. SAHH is an enzyme of the S-adenosylmethionine (SAM) recycling pathway, which also includes SAM synthetase (SAMS) and methionine synthase (MS).

These molecules became worrisome due to their increasingly high concentrations in surface waters. Despite this alarming situation, available data about actual concentrations in the environment is rather scarce, as it is not commonly monitored or regulated. This is aggravated even further by the absence of portable and reliable methods for their determination in the field. A promising way to tackle these issues is the use of enzyme-based and miniaturized biosensors for their electrochemical detection. Here, we present an overview of the latest developments in amperometric microfluidic biosensors that include, modeling and multiphysics simulation, design, manufacture, testing, and operation methods.

  • Substrate Specificity and Reaction Mechanism of Putrescine Oxidase
    J. Biochem. 86, 97-104 (1979) Substrate Specificity and Reaction Mechanism of Putrescine Oxidase Masato OKADA, Seiichi KAWASHIMA, and Kazutomo IMAHORI Department of Biochemistry, Faculty of Medicine, The University of Tokyo, Bunkyo-ku, Tokyo 113 Received for publication, January 9, 1979 Putrescine oxidase [EC 1.4.3.4] of Micrococcus rubens oxidizes many kinds of synthetic poly amines: triamines (spermidine types), tetramines (spermine types), and N-substituted putres cines. Polyamines possessing terminal 4-aminobutylimino groups in their structures were more active as substrates. Putreanine was oxidized at a rate comparable to that of putrescine, and was converted to 1-pyrroline and 8-alanine. Activities and Km values for polyamines were affected by the substituent attached to the 4-aminobutylimino group of the polyamine, and especially by its methylene chain length. It was also found that two types of oxidation occurred in the oxidation of polyamines by putrescine oxidase. When the moieties attached to the 4-aminobutylimino groups in polyamines were less hydrophobic, these polyamines were oxidized at the secondary amino groups to form 1-pyrroline. Polyamines which contained a hydrophobic substituent attached to the 4-aminobutylimino group were oxidized at the ter minal primary amino group of the 4-aminobutylimino moiety to form ammonia. N,N•Œ- Bis(4-aminobutyl)-1,3-diaminopropane ([‡U,4-3-4]) and N-(4-aminobutyl)-N•Œ-(3-aminopropyl) 1,3-diaminopropane ([‡U,4-3-3]) were oxidized to form 1-pyrrolinium salt derivatives as a result of oxidation of the terminal primary amino groups. It was concluded that the essential struc ture for substrates of putrescine oxidase is a 4-aminobutylimino group (NH2(CH2),NH-).

  • Endogenous and Food-Derived Polyamines: Determination By
    Amino Acids (2018) 50:1187–1203 https://doi.org/10.1007/s00726-018-2617-4 REVIEW ARTICLE Endogenous and food‑derived polyamines: determination by electrochemical sensing Davide Baratella1 · Emanuela Bonaiuto1 · Massimiliano Magro1,2 · Jessica de Almeida Roger1 · Yuta Kanamori3,4 · Giuseppina Pace Pereira Lima5 · Enzo Agostinelli3,4 · Fabio Vianello1 Received: 8 March 2018 / Accepted: 10 July 2018 / Published online: 21 July 2018 © Springer-Verlag GmbH Austria, part of Springer Nature 2018 Abstract Polyamines (PAs) are involved in a variety of fundamental physio-pathologic processes. The concentration of these poly- cations in organs and tissues depends on their endogenous production and oxidation rates, and on their intake from foods. Besides being largely accepted as markers for the progress of several pathologies, PAs may exert themselves diferent efects on humans, ranging from being positive to be drastically detrimental depending on the organism conditions. Thus, if the determination of polyamines content in tissue samples is of great importance as they could be indicators of several diseases, their quantifcation in food is fundamental for modulating the diet to respond to a specifc human health status. Thus, the determination of PA content in food is increasingly urgent. Standard analytical methods for polyamine quantifcation are mainly based on chromatography, where high-performance liquid chromatography and gas chromatography are the most often used, involving pre-column or post-column derivatization techniques. Driven by the growing need for rapid in situ analyses, electrochemical biosensors, comprising various combinations of diferent enzymes or nanomaterials for the selec- tive bio-recognition and detection, are emerging as competitors of standard detection systems.

  • A Cytochrome C Is the Natural Electron Acceptor for Nicotine Oxidoreductase
    ARTICLES https://doi.org/10.1038/s41589-020-00712-3 A cytochrome c is the natural electron acceptor for nicotine oxidoreductase Mark Dulchavsky 1,2, Christopher T. Clark3, James C. A. Bardwell1,4 ✉ and Frederick Stull 3 ✉ Nicotine oxidoreductase (NicA2), a member of the flavin-containing amine oxidase family, is of medical relevance as it shows potential as a therapeutic to aid cessation of smoking due to its ability to oxidize nicotine into a non-psychoactive metabolite. However, the use of NicA2 in this capacity is stymied by its dismal O2-dependent activity. Unlike other enzymes in the amine oxidase family, NicA2 reacts very slowly with O2, severely limiting its nicotine-degrading activity. Instead of using O2 as an oxi- dant, we discovered that NicA2 donates electrons to a cytochrome c, which means that NicA2 is actually a dehydrogenase. This is surprising, as enzymes of the flavin-containing amine oxidase family were invariably thought to use O2 as an electron accep- tor. Our findings establish new perspectives for engineering this potentially useful therapeutic and prompt a reconsideration of the term ‘oxidase’ in referring to members of the flavin-containing amine ‘oxidase’ family. lavin-dependent enzymes most often utilize their flavin ade- NicA2 receives two electrons from nicotine.

  • Cellular Features Predicting Susceptibility to Ferroptosis: Insights from Cancer Cell-Line Profiling
    Cellular features predicting susceptibility to ferroptosis: insights from cancer cell-line profiling Vasanthi Sridhar Viswanathan Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2015 © 2015 Vasanthi Sridhar Viswanathan All rights reserved ABSTRACT Cellular features predicting susceptibility to ferroptosis: insights from cancer cell-line profiling Vasanthi Sridhar Viswanathan Ferroptosis is a novel non-apoptotic, oxidative form of regulated cell death that can be triggered by diverse small-molecule ferroptosis inducers (FINs) and genetic perturbations. Current lack of insights into the cellular contexts governing sensitivity to ferroptosis has hindered both translation of FINs as anti-cancer agents for specific indications and the discovery of physiological contexts where ferroptosis may function as a form of programmed cell death. This dissertation describes the identification of cellular features predicting susceptibility to ferroptosis from data generated through a large-scale profiling experiment that screened four FINs against a panel of 860 omically-characterized cancer cell lines (Cancer Therapeutics Response Portal Version 2; CTRPv2 at http://www.broadinstitute.org/ctrp/). Using correlative approaches incorporating transcriptomic, metabolomic, proteomic, and gene-dependency feature types, I uncover both pan-lineage and lineage-specific features mediating cell-line response to FINs. The first key finding from these analyses implicates high expression of sulfur and selenium metabolic pathways in conferring resistance to FINs across lineages. In contrast, the transsulfuration pathway, which enables de novo cysteine synthesis, appears to plays a role in ferroptosis resistance in a subset of lineages. The second key finding from these studies identifies cancer cells in a high mesenchymal state as being uniquely primed to undergo ferroptosis.

We improved on prior studies with a novel systems-biology-based approach that can be used with available data from large cohorts. Methods Brain-cell specic gene clusters were generated from RNA sequencing data from isolated healthy human brain cells using a cell-type enrichment score and clustering. The cell-specic gene clusters were localized in whole-brain transcriptomes from 766 subjects diagnosed with AD or mild cognitive impairment (MCI) by the Mount Sinai Hospital, the Mayo Clinic, and the Religious Order Study/Memory and Aging Project (ROSMAP). Gene clusters were organized into functional categories, and changes among subject groups determined by gene set variation analysis (GSVA) and principal component analysis (PCA).

Abstract: Polyamines are ubiquitous, low-molecular-weight aliphatic compounds, present in living organisms and essential for cell growth and differentiation. Copper amine oxidases (CuAOs) oxidize polyamines to aminoaldehydes releasing ammonium and hydrogen peroxide, which participates in the complex network of reactive oxygen species acting as signaling molecules involved in responses to biotic and abiotic stresses. CuAOs have been identified and characterized in different plant species, but the most extensive study on a CuAO gene family has been carried out in Arabidopsis thaliana. Growing attention has been devoted in the last years to the investigation of the CuAO expression Citation: Fraudentali, I.; pattern during development and in response to an array of stress and stress-related hormones, events Rodrigues-Pousada, R.A.; Angelini, in which recent studies have highlighted CuAOs to play a key role by modulation of a multilevel R.; Ghuge, S.A.; Cona, A.
