Gene Family: Structure, Organization and Evolution
Gene families are considered as groups of homologous genes which they share very similar sequences and they may have identical functions. Members of gene families may be found in tandem repeats or interspersed through the genome. These sequences are copies of the ancestral genes which have underwent changes. The multiple copies of each gene in a family were constructed based on gene duplicati...
متن کاملTarget-directed catalytic metallodrugs
Most drugs function by binding reversibly to specific biological targets, and therapeutic effects generally require saturation of these targets. One means of decreasing required drug concentrations is incorporation of reactive metal centers that elicit irreversible modification of targets. A common approach has been the design of artificial proteases/nucleases containing metal centers capable o...
متن کاملStructure-guided directed evolution of alkenyl and arylmalonate decarboxylases.
The asymmetric decarboxylation of prochiral a-disubstituted malonic acids is an attractive route to produce homochiral asubstituted carboxylic acids. Various metal-catalysed and organocatalytic methods have been explored for related enantioselective decarboxylative protonation (EDP) reactions. However, the synthetic EDPmethods can only deliver chiral carboxylic acids or esters with moderate ena...
متن کاملDirected evolution and secretory expression of a pyrethroid-hydrolyzing esterase with enhanced catalytic activity and thermostability
BACKGROUND Pyrethroids are potentially harmful to human health and ecosystems. It is necessary to develop some efficient strategies to degrade pyrethroid residues. Biodegradation is generally considered as a safe, efficient, and inexpensive way to eliminate environmental contaminants. To date, although several pyrethroid-hydrolyzing esterases have been cloned, there has been no report about a p...
متن کاملA trehalase from Zunongwangia sp.: characterization and improving catalytic efficiency by directed evolution
BACKGROUND Trehalases have potential applications in several fields, including food additives, insecticide development, and transgenic plant. In the present study, we focused on a trehalase from the marine bacterium Zunongwangia sp., which hydrolyzes trehalose to glucose. RESULTS A novel gene, treZ (1590 bp) encoding an α, α-trehalase of 529 amino acids was cloned from Zunongwangia sp., and T...
