Carmen Pueyo de la Cuesta Dr. Juan Jurado Carpio Catedrática de Bioquímica y Biología Profesor Titular de Bioquímica y Molecular Biología Molecular Universidad de Córdoba Universidad de Córdoba Estoy comenzando a escribir y los recuerdos fluyen por mi mente por todo lo que he vivido estos años... Ante todo me gustaría empezar pidiendo disculpas a todas las personas que me han instruido, formado, apoyado... por las molestias que os haya ocasionado en este largo pero provechoso camino que ha supuesto la consecución de esta tesis doctoral. Jamás seré capaz de devolver tanto como me habéis aportado a mí. No puedo empezar de otra forma que no sea agradeciendo a mis directores, Carmen Pueyo de la Cuesta y Juan Jurado Carpio, por todo el esfuerzo que han gastado en que este trabajo saliera adelante. Habéis sido unos auténticos tutores para mí. Habéis sido mis mentores. Carmen, muchísimas gracias, no solo por la consecución de esta tesis, si no por todo aquello que me has enseñado e inculcado. Por confiar en mi desde el primer día, por cómo me has orientado, guiado, dirigido, por haberme transmitido muchos valores que luego he llevado a la práctica a mi vida cotidiana, por desarrollar mi afán de superación, por haber hecho que la investigación haya sido mi forma de vida y por tu apoyo en los momentos más difíciles. Me he sentido tratado como un hijo y eso no lo olvidaré en la vida. Mi agradecimiento es eterno. Juan, no he conocido a una persona que reúna tantas buenas cualidades y lo digo con conocimiento de causa por tantos momentos que hemos pasado juntos durante todos estos años. Gracias por tu paciencia, sacrificio, dedicación, resistencia, por creer en mí y porque sin tu ayuda no hubiese sido capaz de alcanzar mi objetivo. Gracias por tu tenacidad, por tesón, por tu serenidad, por ser tan buena persona. Nos soy capaz de reflejar lo que en este momento desearía transmitir. Por fin lo hemos conseguido!! Agradecer a Pepa, que nunca olvidaré que mis comienzos fueron contigo, que me trataste con cariño y aprecio y me condicionaste para siempre gracias a tus métodos de trabajo. En mi forma de trabajar sigo aplicando las cosas que me enseñaste los primeros días. A Juan López Barea, por su inestimable ayuda, por sus consejos, sabiduría, clarividencia, por haberme orientado en muchos momentos, por mostrarme que la ciencia puede ser muy pasional y maravillosa. Al resto de componentes del grupo de investigación. Nieves, por sus consejos; Carmina, por el cariño y el apoyo que me transmite constantemente. A mis compañeras. Inma, no olvidaré que nuestra etapa comenzó como si fuéramos hermanos. Aprendimos juntos y nos apoyamos para sacar las cosas adelante. A Bea y Patricia, por compartir buenos momentos en el laboratorio y por vuestra ayuda. A mis compañeros Dani y Rafa, por tan buenos momentos en el laboratorio y en los tiempos de captura de ratones. Me lo he pasado demasiado bien con vosotros. Algún día nos encontraremos. A Romero, Julia, Barbara, al gran Ricardo, que siempre habéis tenido un momento para mí. A mi queridísimo amigo José Luis Gómez-Chaparro... me has ayudado muchas veces, personal y profesionalmente, y no hay espacio para guardar tanto agradecimiento. A mi amigo del alma...Edu...aquí ya no se ni que decir!! Nunca olvidaré aquel día de prácticas de química en 1º de biología cuando nuestros caminos se cruzaron, aún no se han separado y nunca lo harán. Las risas, cachondeos, momentos serios, momentos importantes... siempre has estado ahí y eso solo lo puede hacer un verdadero amigo. Hemos compartido miles de momentos y lo seguimos haciendo porque la proteómica ha hecho que continúe disfrutando de tu persona. A mis compañeros de proteómica, RMN y XPS.

  • Annotating Enzymes of Unknown Function: N
    Biochemistry 2006, 45, 1997-2005 1997 Annotating Enzymes of Unknown Function: N-Formimino-L-glutamate Deiminase Is a Member of the Amidohydrolase Superfamily† Ricardo Martı´-Arbona, Chengfu Xu, Sondra Steele, Amanda Weeks, Gabriel F. Kuty, Clara M. Seibert, and Frank M. Raushel* Department of Chemistry, P.O. Box 30012, Texas A&M UniVersity, College Station, Texas 77842-3012 ReceiVed December 13, 2005; ReVised Manuscript ReceiVed January 2, 2006 ABSTRACT: The functional assignment of enzymes that catalyze unknown chemical transformations is a difficult problem. The protein Pa5106 from Pseudomonas aeruginosa has been identified as a member of the amidohydrolase superfamily by a comprehensive amino acid sequence comparison with structurally authenticated members of this superfamily. The function of Pa5106 has been annotated as a probable chlorohydrolase or cytosine deaminase. A close examination of the genomic content of P. aeruginosa reveals that the gene for this protein is in close proximity to genes included in the histidine degradation pathway. The first three steps for the degradation of histidine include the action of HutH, HutU, and HutI to convert L-histidine to N-formimino-L-glutamate. The degradation of N-formimino-L-glutamate to L-glutamate can occur by three different pathways. Three proteins in P. aeruginosa have been identified that catalyze two of the three possible pathways for the degradation of N-formimino-L-glutamate. The protein Pa5106 was shown to catalyze the deimination of N-formimino-L-glutamate to ammonia and N-formyl-L-glutamate, while Pa5091 catalyzed the hydrolysis of N-formyl-L-glutamate to formate and L-glutamate. The protein Pa3175 is dislocated from the hut operon and was shown to catalyze the hydrolysis of N-formimino-L-glutamate to formamide and L-glutamate.
