Genetic defi- ciency of sulfite oxidase results in neurological abnormalities and often leads to death at an early age. The mutation in the sulfite oxidase gene responsible for sulfite oxidase deficiency in a 5-year-old girl was identified by sequence analysis of cDNA obtained from fibroblast mRNA to be a guanine to adenine transition at nucleotide 479 resulting in the amino acid substitution of Arg-160 to Gln. Recombinant protein containing the R160Q mutation was expressed in Escherichia coli, purified, and characterized. The mutant protein con- tained its full complement of molybdenum and heme, but exhibited 2% of native activity under standard assay condi- tions. Absorption spectroscopy of the isolated molybdenum domains of native sulfite oxidase and of the R160Q mutant showed significant differences in the 480- and 350-nm absorp- tion bands, suggestive of altered geometry at the molybdenum center.

  • A Web Tool for Hydrogenase Classification and Analysis Dan Søndergaard1, Christian N
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN HydDB: A web tool for hydrogenase classification and analysis Dan Søndergaard1, Christian N. S. Pedersen1 & Chris Greening2,3 H2 metabolism is proposed to be the most ancient and diverse mechanism of energy-conservation. The Received: 24 June 2016 metalloenzymes mediating this metabolism, hydrogenases, are encoded by over 60 microbial phyla Accepted: 09 September 2016 and are present in all major ecosystems. We developed a classification system and web tool, HydDB, Published: 27 September 2016 for the structural and functional analysis of these enzymes. We show that hydrogenase function can be predicted by primary sequence alone using an expanded classification scheme (comprising 29 [NiFe], 8 [FeFe], and 1 [Fe] hydrogenase classes) that defines 11 new classes with distinct biological functions. Using this scheme, we built a web tool that rapidly and reliably classifies hydrogenase primary sequences using a combination of k-nearest neighbors’ algorithms and CDD referencing. Demonstrating its capacity, the tool reliably predicted hydrogenase content and function in 12 newly-sequenced bacteria, archaea, and eukaryotes. HydDB provides the capacity to browse the amino acid sequences of 3248 annotated hydrogenase catalytic subunits and also contains a detailed repository of physiological, biochemical, and structural information about the 38 hydrogenase classes defined here. The database and classifier are freely and publicly available at http://services.birc.au.dk/hyddb/ Microorganisms conserve energy by metabolizing H2. Oxidation of this high-energy fuel yields electrons that can be used for respiration and carbon-fixation. This diffusible gas is also produced in diverse fermentation and 1 anaerobic respiratory processes . H2 metabolism contributes to the growth and survival of microorganisms across the three domains of life, including chemotrophs and phototrophs, lithotrophs and heterotrophs, aerobes and 1,2 anaerobes, mesophiles and extremophiles alike .

  • Annotation Guidelines for Experimental Procedures
    Annotation Guidelines for Experimental Procedures Developed By Mohammed Alliheedi Robert Mercer Version 1 April 14th, 2018 1- Introduction and background information What is rhetorical move? A rhetorical move can be defined as a text fragment that conveys a distinct communicative goal, in other words, a sentence that implies an author’s specific purpose to readers. What are the types of rhetorical moves? There are several types of rhetorical moves. However, we are interested in 4 rhetorical moves that are common in the method section of a scientific article that follows the Introduction Methods Results and Discussion (IMRaD) structure. 1- Description of a method: It is concerned with a sentence(s) that describes experimental events (e.g., “Beads with bound proteins were washed six times (for 10 min under rotation at 4°C) with pulldown buffer and proteins harvested in SDS-sample buffer, separated by SDS-PAGE, and analyzed by autoradiography.” (Ester & Uetz, 2008)). 2- Appeal to authority: It is concerned with a sentence(s) that discusses the use of standard methods, protocols, and procedures. There are two types of this move: - A reference to a well-established “standard” method (e.g., the use of a method like “PCR” or “electrophoresis”). - A reference to a method that was previously described in the literature (e.g., “Protein was determined using fluorescamine assay [41].” (Larsen, Frandesn and Treiman, 2001)). 3- Source of materials: It is concerned with a sentence(s) that lists the source of biological materials that are used in the experiment (e.g., “All microalgal strains used in this study are available at the Elizabeth Aidar Microalgae Culture Collection, Department of Marine Biology, Federal Fluminense University, Brazil.” (Larsen, Frandesn and Treiman, 2001)).

Correspondence to: Georgianne L. Arnold, MD. UPMC Children’s Hospital of Pittsburgh, 4401 Penn Avenue, Suite 1200, Pittsburgh, PA 15224, USA. Email: [email protected]. 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.

In humans four such enzymes are known: Sulfite oxidase, xanthine oxidoreductase, aldehyde oxidase and a mitochondrial amidoxime reducing component. Of these, sulfite oxidase is the most important and clinically relevant one. Mutations in the genes MOCS1, MOCS2 or GPHN - all encoding cofactor biosynthesis proteins - lead to molybdenum cofactor deficiency type A, B or C, respectively. All three types plus mutations in the SUOX gene responsible for isolated sulfite oxidase deficiency lead to progressive neurological disease which untreated in most cases leads to death in early childhood. Currently, only for type A of the cofactor deficiency an experimental treatment is available. Introduction combination with SUOX deficiency. Elevated xanthine and lowered uric acid concentrations in the urine are used to differentiate this Isolated sulfite oxidase deficiency (MIM#606887) is an autosomal combined form from the isolated SUOX deficiency. Rarely and only in recessive inherited disease caused by mutations in the sulfite oxidase cases of isolated XOR deficiency xanthine stones have been described (SUOX) gene [1]. Sulfite oxidase is localized in the mitochondrial as a cause of renal failure. Otherwise, isolated XOR deficiency often intermembrane space, where it catalyzes the oxidation of sulfite to goes unnoticed.
