However, the widespread use of these polyphenol oxidases is limited by 15 elevated production costs and restricted knowledge on their spectrum of action. Here, six 16 tyrosinase homologs were identified and characterized from the genomes of 4 widespread 17 freshwater ciliates using bioinformatics. Binding energies between 3D models of these 18 homologs and ~1000 contaminants of emerging concern (CECs), including fine chemicals, 19 pharmaceuticals, personal care products, illicit drugs, natural toxins, and pesticides were 20 estimated through virtual screening, suggesting their spectrum of action and potential uses in 21 environmental biotechnology might be considerably broader than previously thought.

Box 13501 Research Triangle Park, North Carolina 27709 November 2002 Toxicological Summary for Dimethylethanolamine and Selected Salts and Esters 11/2002 Executive Summary Nomination Dimethylethanolamine (DMAE) was nominated by the NIEHS for toxicological characterization, including metabolism, reproductive and developmental toxicity, subchronic toxicity, carcinogenicity and mechanistic studies. The nomination is based on the potential for widespread human exposure to DMAE through its use in industrial and consumer products and an inadequate toxicological database. Studies to address potential hazards of consumer (e.g. dietary supplement) exposures, including use by pregnant women and children, and the potential for reproductive effects and carcinogenic effects are limited.
