  • The Aldehyde Dehydrogenase ALDH2*2 Allele Exhibits Dominance Over ALDH2*1 in Transduced Hela Cells
    The aldehyde dehydrogenase ALDH2*2 allele exhibits dominance over ALDH2*1 in transduced HeLa cells. Q Xiao, … , T Johnston, D W Crabb J Clin Invest. 1995;96(5):2180-2186. https://doi.org/10.1172/JCI118272. Research Article Individuals heterozygous or homozygous for the variant aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH2) allele (ALDH2*2), which encodes a protein differing only at residue 487 from the normal protein, have decreased ALDH2 activity in liver extracts and experience cutaneous flushing when they drink alcohol. The mechanisms by which this allele exerts its dominant effect is unknown. To study this effect, the human ALDH2*1 cDNA was cloned and the ALDH2*2 allele was generated by site-directed mutagenesis. These cDNAs were transduced using retroviral vectors into HeLa and CV1 cells, which do not express ALDH2. The normal allele directed synthesis of immunoreactive ALDH2 protein (ALDH2E) with the expected isoelectric point. Extracts of these cells contained increased aldehyde dehydrogenase activity with low Km for the aldehyde substrate. The ALDH2*2 allele directed synthesis of mRNA and immunoreactive protein (ALDH2K), but the protein lacked enzymatic activity. When ALDH2*1-expressing cells were transduced with ALDH2*2 vectors, both mRNAs were expressed and immunoreactive proteins with isoelectric points ranging between those of ALDH2E and ALDH2K were present, indicating that the subunits formed heteromers. ALDH2 activity in these cells was reduced below that of the parental ALDH2*1-expressing cells. Thus, the ALDH2*2 allele is sufficient to cause ALDH2 deficiency in vitro.

  • Corning® Supersomes™ Ultra Human Aldehyde Oxidase
    Corning® Supersomes™ Ultra Human Aldehyde Oxidase Aldehyde Oxidase (AO) is a cytosolic enzyme that plays an important role in non-CYP mediated drug metabolism and pharmacokinetics. AO has garnered significant attention in the pharmaceutical industry due to multiple drug failures during clinical trials that were associated with the AO pathway and an increase in the number of aromatic aza-heterocycle moieties found in drug leads that have been identified as substrates for AO. Traditionally, recombinant AO (rAO) is expressed in bacteria. However, this approach has disadvantages such as different protein post-translation modifications that lead to different function as compared to mammalian cells. Corning has developed Corning Supersomes Ultra Aldehyde Oxidase, a recombinant human AO enzyme utilizing a mammalian cell-based expression system to address these issues. This product will enable early assessment of the liability of AO for drug metabolism and clearance. Corning Supersomes Ultra Human Aldehyde Oxidase has been over-expressed in HEK-293 cells and exhibited a significantly higher activity as compared to AO expressed in E. coli. Time- dependent enzyme kinetics, using known substrates and inhibitors, between the rAO and the native form found in human liver cytosol produced a good correlation. Features and Benefits of Corning Supersomes Ultra Aldehyde Oxidase Mammalian cell expression system Corning Supersomes Ultra Human Aldehyde Oxidase Performance Corning Supersomes Ultra AO have been engineered in HEK-293 mammalian cells, thereby eliminating the biosafety concerns Activity Comparison Utilizing Probe Substrate (Zaleplon, 250 µM) associated with baculovirus. Stable and reliable in vitro tool 25 Corning Supersomes Ultra AO are a stable and reliable in vitro tool for the study of AO-mediated metabolism, which provides a 20 quantitative contribution of drug clearance.

  • RT² Profiler PCR Array (Rotor-Gene® Format) Human Amino Acid Metabolism I
    RT² Profiler PCR Array (Rotor-Gene® Format) Human Amino Acid Metabolism I Cat. no. 330231 PAHS-129ZR For pathway expression analysis Format For use with the following real-time cyclers RT² Profiler PCR Array, Rotor-Gene Q, other Rotor-Gene cyclers Format R Description The Human Amino Acid Metabolism I RT² Profiler PCR Array profiles the expression of 84 key genes important in biosynthesis and degradation of functional amino acids. Of the 20 amino acids required for protein synthesis, six of them (arginine, cysteine, glutamine, leucine, proline, and tryptophan), collectively known as the functional amino acids, regulate key metabolic pathways involved in cellular growth, and development, as well as other important biological processes such as immunity and reproduction. For example, leucine activates mTOR signaling and increases protein synthesis, leading to lymphocyte proliferation. Therefore, a lack of leucine can compromise immune function. Metabolic pathways interrelated with the biosynthesis and degradation of these amino acids include vitamin and cofactor biosynthesis (such as SAM or S-Adenosyl Methionine) as well as neurotransmitter metabolism (such as glutamate). This array includes genes for mammalian functional amino acid metabolism as well as genes involved in methionine metabolism, important also for nutrient sensing and sulfur metabolism. Using realtime PCR, you can easily and reliably analyze the expression of a focused panel of genes involved in functional amino acid metabolism with this array. For further details, consult the RT² Profiler PCR Array Handbook. Shipping and storage RT² Profiler PCR Arrays in the Rotor-Gene format are shipped at ambient temperature, on dry ice, or blue ice packs depending on destination and accompanying products.

  • Expression and Characterization of Pantoea CO Dehydrogenase To
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Expression and characterization of Pantoea CO dehydrogenase to utilize CO-containing industrial Received: 31 October 2016 Accepted: 06 February 2017 waste gas for expanding the Published: 14 March 2017 versatility of CO dehydrogenase Eun Sil Choi1,2,*, Kyoungseon Min3,*, Geun-Joong Kim2, Inchan Kwon1 & Yong Hwan Kim3 Although aerobic CO dehydrogenases (CODHs) might be applicable in various fields, their practical applications have been hampered by low activity and no heterologous expression. We, for the first time, could functionally express recombinant PsCODH in E. coli and obtained a highly concentrated recombinant enzyme using an easy and convenient method. Its electron acceptor spectra, optimum −1 conditions (pH 6.5 and 30 °C), and kinetic parameters (kcat of 12.97 s , Km of 0.065 mM, and specific activity of 0.86 Umg−1) were examined. Blast furnace gas (BFG) containing 20% CO, which is a waste gas from the steel-making process, was tested as a substrate for PsCODH. Even with BFG, the recombinant PsCODH retained 88.2% and 108.4% activity compared with those of pure CO and 20% CO, respectively. The results provide not only a promising strategy to utilize CO-containing industrial waste gases as cheap, abundant, and renewable resources but also significant information for further studies about cascade reactions producing value-added chemicals via CO2 as an intermediate produced by a CODH- based CO-utilization system, which would ultimately expand the versatility of CODH. Carbon monoxide (CO), which is a pollutant in the atmosphere, is massively emitted through both natural (e.g., production by plants and volcanic activity) and artificial processes (e.g., incomplete combustion of fuels and industrial processes)1–3.

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.

Vavilov Institute of General Genetics RAS, Moscow, Russia Summary The catalytic deficiency of human aldehyde dehydrogenase 2 (ALDH2) is caused by a nucleotide substitution (G1510A; Glu487Lys) in exon 12 of the ALDH2 locus. This SNP,and four non-coding SNPs, including one in the promoter, span 40 kb of ALDH2; these and one downstream STRP have been tested in 37 worldwide populations. Only four major SNP-defined haplotypes account for almost all chromosomes in all populations.

  • Retinoid Metabolism in the Rat Small Intestine
    Downloaded from https://www.cambridge.org/core British Journal of Nutrition (2005), 93, 59–63 DOI: 10.1079/BJN20041306 q The Authors 2005 Retinoid metabolism in the rat small intestine . IP address: Simmy Thomas, Ramamoorthy Prabhu and Kunissery A. Balasubramanian* 170.106.40.139 The Wellcome Trust Research Laboratory, Department of Gastrointestinal Sciences, Christian Medical College, Vellore-632004, India (Received 1 April 2004 – Revised 27 July 2004 – Accepted 21 September 2004) , on 27 Sep 2021 at 00:14:50 Vitamin A (retinol) is essential for epithelial cell growth, differentiation and proliferation. The absorption of retinol occurs in the small intestine, and the metabolism of this vitamin is not well studied in this organ. The intestinal epithelium has a high rate of cell proliferation and differentiation, and the present study looked at the level of retinoids and metabolizing enzymes involved in their interconversion along the villus–crypt axis under normal conditions. Intes- tine was removed from control rats, and enterocytes at various stages of maturation and differentiation were quantified by the metal chelation method. Using HPLC, various retinoid concentrations in the cell homogenate and the metabolizing enzymes in the cytosol were quantified. The proliferating crypt cells , subject to the Cambridge Core terms of use, available at were found to have a higher level of retinoic acid as well as of the enzymes involved in its formation, such as retinaldehyde oxidase and retinol dehydro- genase, compared with the villus cells, suggesting a possible role for this compound in intestinal epithelial cell proliferation and differentiation. The high level of retinol and high retinaldehyde reductase activity in the villus cells suggest the important role played by this enzyme in the conversion of dietary b- carotene to retinol via retinaldehyde.
