  • Amino Mannitol Dehydrogenases on the Azasugar Biosynthetic Pathway
    Send Orders for Reprints to [email protected] 10 Protein & Peptide Letters, 2014, 21, 10-14 Medium-Chain Dehydrogenases with New Specificity: Amino Mannitol Dehydrogenases on the Azasugar Biosynthetic Pathway Yanbin Wu, Jeffrey Arciola, and Nicole Horenstein* Department of Chemistry, University of Florida, Gainesville Florida, 32611-7200, USA Abstract: Azasugar biosynthesis involves a key dehydrogenase that oxidizes 2-amino-2-deoxy-D-mannitol to the 6-oxo compound. The genes encoding homologous NAD-dependent dehydrogenases from Bacillus amyloliquefaciens FZB42, B. atrophaeus 1942, and Paenibacillus polymyxa SC2 were codon-optimized and expressed in BL21(DE3) Escherichia coli. Relative to the two Bacillus enzymes, the enzyme from P. polymyxa proved to have superior catalytic properties with a Vmax of 0.095 ± 0.002 mol/min/mg, 59-fold higher than the B. amyloliquefaciens enzyme. The preferred substrate is 2- amino-2-deoxy-D-mannitol, though mannitol is accepted as a poor substrate at 3% of the relative rate. Simple amino alco- hols were also accepted as substrates at lower rates. Sequence alignment suggested D283 was involved in the enzyme’s specificity for aminopolyols. Point mutant D283N lost its amino specificity, accepting mannitol at 45% the rate observed for 2-amino-2-deoxy-D-mannitol. These results provide the first characterization of this class of zinc-dependent medium chain dehydrogenases that utilize aminopolyol substrates. Keywords: Aminopolyol, azasugar, biosynthesis, dehydrogenase, mannojirimycin, nojirimycin. INTRODUCTION are sufficient to convert fructose-6-phosphate into manno- jirimycin [9].

  • Sugar Alcohols a Sugar Alcohol Is a Kind of Alcohol Prepared from Sugars
    Sweeteners, Good, Bad, or Something even Worse. (Part 8) These are Low calorie sweeteners - not non-calorie sweeteners Sugar Alcohols A sugar alcohol is a kind of alcohol prepared from sugars. These organic compounds are a class of polyols, also called polyhydric alcohol, polyalcohol, or glycitol. They are white, water-soluble solids that occur naturally and are used widely in the food industry as thickeners and sweeteners. In commercial foodstuffs, sugar alcohols are commonly used in place of table sugar (sucrose), often in combination with high intensity artificial sweeteners to counter the low sweetness of the sugar alcohols. Unlike sugars, sugar alcohols do not contribute to the formation of tooth cavities. Common Sugar Alcohols Arabitol, Erythritol, Ethylene glycol, Fucitol, Galactitol, Glycerol, Hydrogenated Starch – Hydrolysate (HSH), Iditol, Inositol, Isomalt, Lactitol, Maltitol, Maltotetraitol, Maltotriitol, Mannitol, Methanol, Polyglycitol, Polydextrose, Ribitol, Sorbitol, Threitol, Volemitol, Xylitol, Of these, xylitol is perhaps the most popular due to its similarity to sucrose in visual appearance and sweetness. Sugar alcohols do not contribute to tooth decay. However, consumption of sugar alcohols does affect blood sugar levels, although less than that of "regular" sugar (sucrose). Sugar alcohols may also cause bloating and diarrhea when consumed in excessive amounts. Erythritol Also labeled as: Sugar alcohol Zerose ZSweet Erythritol is a sugar alcohol (or polyol) that has been approved for use as a food additive in the United States and throughout much of the world. It was discovered in 1848 by British chemist John Stenhouse. It occurs naturally in some fruits and fermented foods. At the industrial level, it is produced from glucose by fermentation with a yeast, Moniliella pollinis.

Nutrient excess and altered mitochondrial proteome and function contribute to neurodegeneration in diabetes Subir K. Roy Chowdhurya,*, Rick T.

Mitochondrial dysfunction has been proposed to play an important role in the pathogenesis of the neurodegeneration observed in diabetic neuropathy. Our recent work has shown that mitochondrial dysfunction occurs in dorsal root ganglia (DRG) sensory neurons in streptozotocin (STZ) induced diabetic rodents. In neurons, the nutrient excess associated with prolonged diabetes may trigger a switching off of AMP kinase (AMPK) and/or silent information regulator T1 (SIRT1) signaling leading to impaired peroxisome proliferator- activated receptor γ coactivator-1α (PGC-1α expression/activity and diminished mitochondrial activity. This review briefly summarizes the alterations of mitochondrial function and proteome in sensory neurons of STZ-diabetic rodents. We also discuss the possible involvement of AMPK/ SIRT/PGC-1α pathway in other diabetic models and different tissues affected by diabetes. Keywords Mitochondrial respiratory chain; Diabetic neuropathy; Dorsal root ganglia; PGC-1α; AMPK; SIRT 1.
