Boletus edulis Nitrite Reductase Reduces Nitrite Content of Pickles and Mitigates Intoxication in Nitrite-intoxicated Mice
Pickles are popular in China and exhibits health-promoting effects. However, nitrite produced during fermentation adversely affects health due to formation of methemoglobin and conversion to carcinogenic nitrosamine. Fruiting bodies of the mushroom Boletus edulis were capable of inhibiting nitrite production during pickle fermentation. A 90-kDa nitrite reductase (NiR), demonstrating peptide seq...
متن کاملNitrite Reductase in Rice Seedlings
1. In rice seedlings synthesis of methyl viologen-nitrite reductase was stimulated by light, as was that of NADH-nitrate oxidoreductase (EC 1.6.6.1). A small residual effect of light on the synthesis of the enzymes persisted in the dark for a short time. 2. In etiolated seedlings exposed to light and nitrate, a lag period of 3 h was necessary before enzyme synthesis commenced, whereas in green ...
متن کاملDopaminergic Effects of Isobutyl Nitrite, Isoamyl Nitrite and Butyl Nitrite
Alkyl nitrites have been problematic worldwide due to their recreational use. Although there is a lack of scientific information on their action on the central nervous system (CNS), many anecdotal reports and case studies have inferred the CNS actions of alkyl nitrites. The objective of this study was to investigate the effects of alkyl nitrites on the CNS, especially focusing on the dopaminerg...
متن کاملL-Arginine Supplementation Influenced Nitrite but Not Nitrate and Total Nitrite in Rabbit Model of Hypercholesterolemia
Background: The assessment of altered nitric oxide (NO) availability is of potentially important diagnostic and prognostic significance. The present study is aimed to investigate the effect of L-arginine (as a natural NO donor) supplementation on NO metabolite in a rabbit model of hypercholesterolemia to find a reliable marker for endothelial NO production. Methods: White male rabbits (n = 30)...
متن کاملActivation of Nitrite Reductase from Escherichia coli
Nitrite reductase from Escherichia coli K12 requires the presence of NAD+, one of the products of the reduction ofNO2by NADH, for full activity. The effect is observed with both crude extracts and purified enzyme. NAD+ also acts as a product inhibitor at high concentrations, and plots of initial rate against NAD+ concentration are bell-shaped. The maximum occurs at about 1 mM-NAD+, but increase...
