Synthesis of 1,5-anhydro-D-glucitol from glucose in rat hepatoma cells.
A pyranoid polyol, 1,5-anhydroglucitol (AG), generally occurs in the human body as a humoral component. The plasma AG concentration in healthy individuals is maintained at a constant level, but it is markedly decreased in diabetes mellitus. This is due to hyperglycemia-dependent abolishment of renal AG retention. Hence, the plasma AG concentration has been established as a clinical marker for d...
متن کاملCrystals of family 11 xylanase II from Trichoderma longibrachiatum that diffract to atomic resolution.
Xylanases catalyse the cleavage of various forms of xylan. A new crystal form of xylanase II from the fungus Trichoderma longibrachiatum that diffracts to better than 1 A resolution was grown from 12% PEG 8K, 0.1 M Tris pH 8.5, 0.2 M CaCl(2) with the addition of 2% glycerol to overcome crystal twinning. The crystals grow in a body-centered orthorhombic Bravais lattice, with unit-cell parameters...
متن کاملNAD + -dependent Formate Dehydrogenase from Plants
NAD(+)-dependent formate dehydrogenase (FDH, EC 1.2.1.2) widely occurs in nature. FDH consists of two identical subunits and contains neither prosthetic groups nor metal ions. This type of FDH was found in different microorganisms (including pathogenic ones), such as bacteria, yeasts, fungi, and plants. As opposed to microbiological FDHs functioning in cytoplasm, plant FDHs localize in mitochon...
متن کاملThe Application of Plasma 1,5-Anhydro-D-glucitol for Monitoring Type 2 Diabetic Patients
AIM Recent data have suggested that effective control of postprandial blood glucose can reduce the risk of macroangiopathic complications of diabetes, especially cardiovascular risk. 1,5-Anhydro-D-glucitol (1,5-AG) has been proposed as a marker of short-term hyperglycaemic excursions. We aimed to evaluate its usefulness in patients with type 2 diabetes and have attempted to indicate when 1,5-AG...
متن کاملPreliminary Report of NAD+-Dependent Amino Acid Dehydrogenase Producing Bacteria Isolated from Soil
Amino acid dehydrogenases (L-amino acid: oxidoreductase deaminating EC 1.4.1.X) are members of the wider superfamily of oxidoreductases that catalyze the reversible oxidative deamination of an amino acid to its keto acid and ammonia with the concomitant reduction of either NAD+, NADP+ or FAD. These enzymes have been received much attention as biocatalysts for use in biosensors or diagnostic kit...
