Supercritical carbon dioxide: a solvent like no other

Supercritical carbon dioxide (scCO2) could be one aspect of a significant and necessary movement towards green chemistry, being a potential replacement for volatile organic compounds (VOCs). Unfortunately, carbon dioxide has a notoriously poor solubilising power and is famously difficult to handle. This review examines attempts and breakthroughs in enhancing the physicochemical properties of ca...

LOXL2 (lysyl oxidase-like 2)

The LOXL2 gene is located on chromosome 8p21.2p21.3 (Jourdan-Le Saux et al., 1998). It is composed of fourteen exons and thirteen introns, distributed through approximately 107 kb of genomic DNA (Fong et al., 2007). Two transcripts of sizes 3.6 kb and 4.9 kb have been reported, with the smaller transcript much more abundant and resulting from three possible termination sites located 690 bp, 740...

LOXL3 (lysyl oxidase-like 3)

Note LOXL3 is part of the lysyl oxidase (LOX) family, the members of which are secreted extracellular matrix enzymes. LOXL3 contains a C-terminal region that is conserved in all five isoforms of this copper-dependent amine oxidase family. The domains included within this region are a copper-binding site, lysyl and tyrosine residues that form the lysyltyrosine-quinone cofactor (LTQ) and a cytoki...
