ABSTRACT Exodeoxyribonuclease III (EXOIII) acts as a 3’→5’ exonuclease and is homologous to purinic/apyrimidinic (AP) en- donuclease (APE), which plays an important role in the base excision repair pathway. To structurally investigate the reaction and substrate recognition mechanisms of EXOIII, a crystallographic study of EXOIII from Sulfolobus tokodaii strain 7 was carried out. The purified enzyme was crystallized by using the hanging-drop vapor-diffusion method. The crystals belonged to space group C2, with unit-cell parameters a = 154.2, b = 47.7, c = 92.4 Å, β = 125.8˚ and diffracted to 1.5 Å resolution.

The present study investigates genomic and tran- scriptomic changes in ACGEJ from Chinese patients and analyzes their drug vulnerabilities and associations with the survival time. Here we show that the major genomic changes of Chinese ACGEJ patients are chromosome instability promoted tumorigenic focal copy- number variations and COSMIC Signature 17-featured single nucleotide variations. We provide a comprehensive profile of genetic changes that are potentially vulnerable to existing therapeutic agents and identify Signature 17-correlated IFN-α response pathway as a prog- nostic marker that might have practical value for clinical prognosis of ACGEJ. These findings further our understanding on the molecular biology of ACGEJ and may help develop more effective therapeutic strategies. 1 Beijing Advanced Innovation Center for Genomics (ICG), Biomedical Pioneering Innovation Center (BIOPIC), Peking University, Beijing, China. 2 Department of Etiology and Carcinogenesis, National Cancer Center/National Clinical Research Center/Cancer Hospital, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences and Peking Union Medical College, Beijing, China. 3 Cancer Institute, Affiliated Cancer Hospital of Xinjiang Medical University, Urumqi, China.

  • Hyperbilirubinemia
    Porphyrins Porphyrins (Porphins) are cyclic tetrapyrol compounds formed by the linkage )). of four pyrrole rings through methenyl bridges (( HC In the reduced porphyrins (Porphyrinogens) the linkage of four pyrrole rings (tetrapyrol) through methylene bridges (( CH2 )) The characteristic property of porphyrins is the formation of complexes with the metal ion bound to nitrogen atoms of the pyrrole rings. e.g. Heme (iron porphyrin). Proteins which contain heme ((hemoproteins)) are widely distributed e.g. Hemoglobin, Myoglobin, Cytochromes, Catalase & Tryptophan pyrrolase. Natural porphyrins have substituent side chains on the eight hydrogen atoms numbered on the pyrrole rings. These side chains are: CH 1-Methyl-group (M)… (( 3 )) 2-Acetate-group (A)… (( CH2COOH )) 3-Propionate-group (P)… (( CH2CH2COOH )) 4-Vinyl-group (V)… (( CH CH2 )) Porphyrins with asymmetric arrangement of the side chains are classified as type III porphyrins while those with symmetric arrangement of the side chains are classified as type I porphyrins. Only types I & III are present in nature & type III series is more important because it includes heme. 1 Heme Biosynthesis Heme biosynthesis occurs through the following steps: 1-The starting reaction is the condensation between succinyl-CoA ((derived from citric acid cycle in the mitochondria)) & glycine, this reaction is a rate limiting reaction in the hepatic heme synthesis, it occurs in the mitochondria & is catalyzed by ALA synthase (Aminolevulinate synthase) enzyme in the presence of pyridoxal phosphate as a cofactor. The product of this reaction is α-amino-β-ketoadipate which is rapidly decarboxylated to form δ-aminolevulinate (ALA). 2-In the cytoplasm condensation reaction between two molecules of ALA is catalyzed by ALA dehydratase enzyme to form two molecules of water & one 2 molecule of porphobilinogen (PBG) which is a precursor of pyrrole.

  • Porphyrins & Bile Pigments
    Bio. 2. ASPU. Lectu.6. Prof. Dr. F. ALQuobaili Porphyrins & Bile Pigments • Biomedical Importance These topics are closely related, because heme is synthesized from porphyrins and iron, and the products of degradation of heme are the bile pigments and iron. Knowledge of the biochemistry of the porphyrins and of heme is basic to understanding the varied functions of hemoproteins in the body. The porphyrias are a group of diseases caused by abnormalities in the pathway of biosynthesis of the various porphyrins. A much more prevalent clinical condition is jaundice, due to elevation of bilirubin in the plasma, due to overproduction of bilirubin or to failure of its excretion and is seen in numerous diseases ranging from hemolytic anemias to viral hepatitis and to cancer of the pancreas. • Metalloporphyrins & Hemoproteins Are Important in Nature Porphyrins are cyclic compounds formed by the linkage of four pyrrole rings through methyne (==HC—) bridges. A characteristic property of the porphyrins is the formation of complexes with metal ions bound to the nitrogen atom of the pyrrole rings. Examples are the iron porphyrins such as heme of hemoglobin and the magnesium‐containing porphyrin chlorophyll, the photosynthetic pigment of plants. • Natural Porphyrins Have Substituent Side Chains on the Porphin Nucleus The porphyrins found in nature are compounds in which various side chains are substituted for the eight hydrogen atoms numbered in the porphyrin nucleus. As a simple means of showing these substitutions, Fischer proposed a shorthand formula in which the methyne bridges are omitted and a porphyrin with this type of asymmetric substitution is classified as a type III porphyrin.

    Kumka and Bauer BMC Genomics (2015) 16:895 DOI 10.1186/s12864-015-2162-4 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Analysis of the FnrL regulon in Rhodobacter capsulatus reveals limited regulon overlap with orthologues from Rhodobacter sphaeroides and Escherichia coli Joseph E. Kumka and Carl E. Bauer* Abstract Background: FNR homologues constitute an important class of transcription factors that control a wide range of anaerobic physiological functions in a number of bacterial species. Since FNR homologues are some of the most pervasive transcription factors, an understanding of their involvement in regulating anaerobic gene expression in different species sheds light on evolutionary similarity and differences. To address this question, we used a combination of high throughput RNA-Seq and ChIP-Seq analysis to define the extent of the FnrL regulon in Rhodobacter capsulatus and related our results to that of FnrL in Rhodobacter sphaeroides and FNR in Escherichia coli. Results: Our RNA-seq results show that FnrL affects the expression of 807 genes, which accounts for over 20 % of the Rba. capsulatus genome. ChIP-seq results indicate that 42 of these genes are directly regulated by FnrL. Importantly, this includes genes involved in the synthesis of the anoxygenic photosystem. Similarly, FnrL in Rba. sphaeroides affects 24 % of its genome, however, only 171 genes are differentially expressed in common between two Rhodobacter species, suggesting significant divergence in regulation. Conclusions: We show that FnrL in Rba. capsulatus activates photosynthesis while in Rba. sphaeroides FnrL regulation reported to involve repression of the photosystem. This analysis highlights important differences in transcriptional control of photosynthetic events and other metabolic processes controlled by FnrL orthologues in closely related Rhodobacter species.

  • UROPORPHYRINOGEN HII COSYNTHETASE in HUMAN Hemolysates from Five Patientswith Congenital Erythropoietic Porphyriawas Much Lower
    UROPORPHYRINOGEN HII COSYNTHETASE IN HUMAN CONGENITAL ERYTHROPOIETIC PORPHYRIA * BY GIOVANNI ROMEO AND EPHRAIM Y. LEVIN DEPARTMENT OF PEDIATRICS, THE JOHNS HOPKINS UNIVERSITY SCHOOL OF MEDICINE Communicated by William L. Straus, Jr., April 24, 1969 Abstract.-Activity of the enzyme uroporphyrinogen III cosynthetase in hemolysates from five patients with congenital erythropoietic porphyria was much lower than the activity in control samples. The low cosynthetase activity in patients was not due to the presence of a free inhibitor or some competing en- zymatic activity, because hemolysates from porphyric subjects did not interfere either with the cosynthetase activity of hemolysates from normal subjects or with cosynthetase prepared from hematopoietic mouse spleen. This partial deficiency of cosynthetase in congenital erythropoietic porphyria corresponds to that shown previously in the clinically similar erythropoietic porphyria of cattle and explains the overproduction of uroporphyrin I in the human disease. Erythropoietic porphyria is a rare congenital disorder of man and cattle, characterized by photosensitivity, erythrodontia, hemolytic anemia, and por- phyrinuria.1 Many of the clinical manifestations of the disease can be explained by the production in marrow, deposition in tissues, and excretion in the urine and feces, of large amounts of uroporphyrin I and coproporphyrin I, which are products of the spontaneous oxidation of uroporphyrinogen I and its decarboxyl- ated derivative, coproporphyrinogen I. In cattle, the condition is inherited

  • Biochemistry I Enzymes
    BIOCHEMISTRY I 3rd. Stage Lec. ENZYMES Biomedical Importance: Enzymes, which catalyze the biochemical reactions, are essential for life. They participate in the breakdown of nutrients to supply energy and chemical building blocks; the assembly of those building blocks into proteins, DNA, membranes, cells, and tissues; and the harnessing of energy to power cell motility, neural function, and muscle contraction. The vast majority of enzymes are proteins. Notable exceptions include ribosomal RNAs and a handful of RNA molecules imbued with endonuclease or nucleotide ligase activity known collectively as ribozymes. The ability to detect and to quantify the activity of specific enzymes in blood, other tissue fluids, or cell extracts provides information that complements the physician’s ability to diagnose and predict the prognosis of many diseases. Further medical applications include changes in the quantity or in the catalytic activity of key enzymes that can result from genetic defects, nutritional deficits, tissue damage, toxins, or infection by viral or bacterial pathogens (eg, Vibrio cholerae). Medical scientists address imbalances in enzyme activity by using pharmacologic agents to inhibit specific enzymes and are investigating gene therapy as a means to remedy deficits in enzyme level or function. In addition to serving as the catalysts for all metabolic processes, their impressive catalytic activity, substrate specificity, and stereospecificity enable enzymes to fulfill key roles in additional processes related to human health and well-being. Proteases and amylases augment the capacity of detergents to remove dirt and stains, and enzymes play important roles in producing or enhancing the nutrient value of food products for both humans and animals.
