In these animals the regulation of Aldox activity is not uniform over the disc epithelium as both cis-dominant and trans-acting control were evident in different regions of the disc. The Aldox expression was shown to be regulated by loci on the X chromosome, 2L and 3R of D. melanogaster and 2R and 3R of D. simulans.

Abstract: Amino acids serve as key building blocks and as an energy source for cell repair, survival, regeneration and growth. Each amino acid has an amino group, a carboxylic acid, and a unique carbon structure. Human utilize 21 different amino acids; most of these can be synthesized endogenously, but 9 are “essential” in that they must be ingested in the diet. In addition to their role as building blocks of protein, amino acids are key energy source (ketogenic, glucogenic or both), are building blocks of Kreb’s (aka TCA) cycle intermediates and other metabolites, and recycled as needed. A metabolic defect in the metabolism of tyrosine (homogentisic acid oxidase deficiency) historically defined Archibald Garrod as key architect in linking biochemistry, genetics and medicine and creation of the term ‘Inborn Error of Metabolism’ (IEM). The key concept of a single gene defect leading to a single enzyme dysfunction, leading to “intoxication” with a precursor in the metabolic pathway was vital to linking genetics and metabolic disorders and developing screening and treatment approaches as described in other chapters in this issue.

The form most commonly form is pyridoxine HCl. Phosphorylation of 5’position of B6 (PM, PL, & PN), which make PMP, PLP, & PNP. In animal, predominant of PMP & PLP; in plant foods, a glucoside form in which glucose (5’-O- [-glucopyranosyl] pyridoxine) may play as storage form of vitamin. Pyridoxine 2 1 Pyridoxine 3 bacterial alanine racemase Pyridoxine 4 2 Pyridoxine 5 Introduction Vitamin B6 is one of the most versatile enzyme (>100 enzymes) cofactors.

Pyridoxal phosphate (PLP) is a cofactor 1. in the metabolism of amino acids and neurotransmitters; 2. in the breakdown of glycogen; 3. bind to steroid hormone receptors and may have a role in regulating steroid hormone action; 4. in the immune system Pyridoxine 6 3 Chemistry Name: pyridoxine, pyridoxal & pyridoxamine, vitamin B6 Structure: 2-methyl-3-hydroxy5-hydroxy methyl pyridines.

Al Salhen * Chemistry Department, Sciences College, Omar Al-Mukhtar University, El-beida, Libya Received 18 November 2015; revised 9 February 2016; accepted 23 February 2016 KEYWORDS Abstract Aldehyde oxidase (AO) and xanthine oxidoreductase (XOR) are molybdo-flavoenzymes Aldehyde oxidase; (MFEs) involved in the oxidation of hundreds of many xenobiotic compounds of which are drugs Xanthine oxidoreductase; and environmental pollutants. Mutations in the XOR and molybdenum cofactor sulfurase (MCS) Chemoprotection and Dro- genes result in a deficiency of XOR or dual AO/XOR deficiency respectively. At present despite AO sophila melanogaster and XOR being classed as detoxification enzymes the definitive experimental proof of this has not been assessed in any animal thus far. The aim of this project was to evaluate ry and ma-l strains of Drosophila melanogaster as experimental models for XOR and dual AO/XOR deficiencies respec- tively and to determine if MFEs have a role in the protection against chemicals. In order to test the role of the enzymes in chemoprotection, MFE substrates were administered to Drosophila in media and survivorship was monitored. It was demonstrated that several methylated xanthines were toxic to XOR-deficient strains. In addition a range of AO substrates including N-heterocyclic pol- lutants and drugs were significantly more toxic to ma-l AO-null strains.

    AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF Kerry Elizabeth Martinson for the degree of Master of Science in Nutrition and Food Management presented on March 11.1994. Title: Changes in Plasma Pyridoxal 5'- Phosphate and Red Blood Cell Pvridoxal 5'-Phosphate Concentration during an Oral Glucose Tolerance Test in Persons with Diabetes Mellitus. Abstract approved: _^ James E. Leklem, PhD. The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between the overall changes in concentration of plasma pyridoxal S'-phosphate (PLP), red blood cell PLP (rbc PLP) and plasma glucose during an oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) in persons with diabetes mellitus (DM), and to test the hypothesis that the decrease in plasma PLP con- centration that occurs with increasing plasma glucose would be explained by a subse- quent increase in rbc PLP concentration. A second objective was to compare the distri- bution of PLP between the red blood cell and the plasma (as measured by the rbc PLP/ plasma PLP ratio) in persons with diabetes to the distribution in non-diabetic controls. The third objective was to measure fasting plasma alkaline phosphatase (AP) activity, and to compare it to fasting plasma PLP concentrations, fasting rbc PLP concentrations, and the rbc PLP/plasma PLP ratio. The purpose of this third objective was to test the hypothesis that an increased plasma AP activity in persons with DM would be associated with decreased plasma PLP and increased rbc PLP concentrations. The study included 8 persons (3F; 5M) with insulin dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM), 9 persons (5F; 4M) with non-insulin dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM) and 18 healthy control individuals (9F; 9M).

The functional role and the substrate specificity of the ancestor (Forrest et al., 1956; Nash and Henderson, 1982; distinct Drosophila AOX enzymes is unknown. Two loss-of-function Rodríguez-Trelles et al., 2003; Garattini et al., 2008). Rodents and mutant alleles in this gene region, low pyridoxal oxidase (Polpo) and marsupials contain the largest number of AOX functional genes aldehyde oxidase-1 (Aldox-1n1) are associated with a phenotype (AOX1, AOX3, AOX4 and AOX3L1), whereas the human genome characterized by undetectable AOX enzymatic activity. However, the contains one single and functional AOX1 gene (hAOX1) and two genes involved and the corresponding mutations have not yet been non-functional pseudogenes, representing the vestiges of the mouse identified. In this study we characterized the activities, substrate AOX3 and AOX3L1 orthologs (Garattini et al., 2003; Garattini et al., specificities and expression profiles of the four AOX enzymes in D.

    Introduction to Enzymes Enzyme Engineering What is enzymes? Life depends on well-orchestrated series of chemical reactions : E. coli has 4288 proteins, 2656 of which are characterized, and 64% (1701) of the characterized ones code enzymes Chemical reactions are far slow to maintain life Living system has designed catalysts to fasten the specific reactions 1 1.2 History of enzyme study Rock and key model Fig. 1.1 Demonstrated that enzymes do not require a cell Enzyme is proved to be a protein 1957, Myoglobin structure was deduced by X-ray crystallography Kendrew 1963, The first aa sequence of enzyme, ribonuclease was reported 1965, The first enzyme structure of lysozyme was reported 2 1.2 History of enzyme study 1958, “Induced fit” model was proposed, Koshland 1965, “Allosteric model” of enzyme was porposed, Monod 1969, the first chemical synthesis of an enzyme was reported, proving an enzyme is a protein Mechanisms of thousands enzymes have been studied by X-ray crystallography and NMR DNA recombinant methods were used to overproduce enzymes and to pinpoint the important amino acids 2004, the first computer designed enzyme was reported Kaplan, J. and DeGrado, W. F. (2004) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 101, 11566-11570 3 1.2 History of enzyme study Catalytic biological molecules other than conventional enzymes Antibody RNA (Ribozyme) : Usually involved in RNA processing (phosphate ester hydrolysis)-Cech, 1986 As short as 30 nucleotide (hammerhead ribozyme)-Fig. 1.3 1.3 Properties of enzymes I. Catalytic power 17 It increases the rate as much as 10 fold It operates in moderate temperature and neutral pH (Enzymes from archeabacteria are exceptions) Extreme example is Nitrogen fixation (N2 to ammonia) 700 ~ 900K, 100 ~ 900atm with iron catalysts vs.
