Thermodynamics of enzyme-catalyzed reactions - a database for quantitative biochemistry
UNLABELLED The Thermodynamics of Enzyme-catalyzed Reactions Database (TECRDB) is a comprehensive collection of thermodynamic data on enzyme-catalyzed reactions. The data, which consist of apparent equilibrium constants and calorimetrically determined molar enthalpies of reaction, are the primary experimental results obtained from thermodynamic studies of biochemical reactions. The results from ...
متن کاملBiochemistry and Therapeutic Accesses for Enzyme Facilitated Inflammation: A Review
Inflammation is a defensive measure against the chemical or biological incursions of pathogens, damaged cells or irritants so that the homeostasis in the vascular tissues is maintained. Biochemically, the commencement of the defensive reaction pertains to the production of inflammatory mediators such as chemokines, cytokines, and eicosanoids. Subsequently, the neutrophils rush to the site of in...
متن کاملComparative biochemistry of CO2 fixation and the evolution of autotrophy.
Carbon dioxide fixation is a polyphyletic trait that has evolved in widely separated prokaryotic branches. The three principal CO2-assimilation pathways are (i) the reductive pentose-phosphate cycle, i.e. the Calvin-Benson cycle; (ii) the reductive citric acid (or Arnon) cycle; and (iii) the net synthesis of acetyl-CoA from CO/CO2, or Wood pathway. Sequence analysis and the comparative biochemi...
متن کاملBiochemistry and evolution of anaerobic energy metabolism in eukaryotes.
Major insights into the phylogenetic distribution, biochemistry, and evolutionary significance of organelles involved in ATP synthesis (energy metabolism) in eukaryotes that thrive in anaerobic environments for all or part of their life cycles have accrued in recent years. All known eukaryotic groups possess an organelle of mitochondrial origin, mapping the origin of mitochondria to the eukaryo...
متن کاملA sixty-year evolution of biochemistry at McGill University.
The Department of Biochemistry at McGill University was inaugurated close to a century after the Medical School was founded. The roots of the Department, however, can be found at the very beginning of the Medical School in 1829. Because several of the founding faculty members of the Medical School were educated in Edinburgh, McGill's early medical program bore the imprint of the Edinburgh schoo...
