Choline acetyltransferase. Inhibition by thiol reagents.
Choline acetyltransferase (EC 2.3.1.6) catalyzes the reversible transfer of the acetyl group from acetyl coenzyme A to choline. Previous studies are consistent with the idea that an active site sulfhydryl group reacts with acetyl coenzyme A to form an acetyl-thioenzyme intermediate and coenzyme A (ROSKOSKI, R., JR. (1973) Biochemistry 12, 3709). Choline then reacts with the acetyl-enzyme to for...
متن کاملDelineation of fucosyltransferase activities with thiol reagents.
The thiol reagent dithiothreitol inhibits the activity of a core GDP-fucose-N-acetylglucosaminide alpha-6-fucosyltransferase in plasma and blood-cell homogenates, while promoting the activity of alpha-2- and alpha-3-fucosyltransferases. The latter enzymes catalyse transfer of fucose on to terminal galactose and subterminal N-acetylglucosamine residues respectively. A thiol-blocking reagent N-et...
متن کاملHydrogen Sulfide Deactivates Common Nitrobenzofurazan-Based Fluorescent Thiol Labeling Reagents
Sulfhydryl-containing compounds, including thiols and hydrogen sulfide (H2S), play important but differential roles in biological structure and function. One major challenge in separating the biological roles of thiols and H2S is developing tools to effectively separate the reactivity of these sulfhydryl-containing compounds. To address this challenge, we report the differential responses of co...
متن کاملParadoxical effects of thiol reagents on Jurkat cells and a new thiol-sensitive mutant form of human mitochondrial superoxide dismutase.
The imbalance between oxidants and antioxidants in cells often results in pathological processes and/or diseases. This delicate balance is achieved in part by antioxidant enzymes such as glutathione peroxidase, catalase, and superoxide dismutase (SOD), as well as by low-molecular-weight reductants such as glutathione. We evaluated the effect of thiol reagents on the proliferation of the Jurkat ...
متن کاملThiol-functionalized mesoporous silica as nanocarriers for anticancer drug delivery
The present study deals with the synthesis andfunctionalization of mesoporous silica nanoparticles as drug delivery platforms. SBA-15 nanorods with high surface area (1010 m2g-1) were functionalized by post grafting method using 3-mercaptopropyl trimethoxysilane (MPTS). The parent and thiol-functionalized SBA-15 nanorods were used as nanocarriers for an anticancer drug (gemcitabine). The charac...
