Pyrroloquinoline Quinone as Cofactor in Galactose Oxidase
Galactose oxidase from Dactylium dendroides was shown to contain one molecule of covalently bound pyrroloquinoline quinone (PQQ)/enzyme molecule. From the spectroscopic characteristics reported for the enzyme forms, a mechanistic role for PQQ could be deduced. In analogy with other quinoproteins, the initial formation of a PQQ-substrate adduct is proposed. Following internal hydrogen transfer, ...
متن کاملExtension of Lifespan in C. elegans by Naphthoquinones That Act through Stress Hormesis Mechanisms
Hormesis occurs when a low level stress elicits adaptive beneficial responses that protect against subsequent exposure to severe stress. Recent findings suggest that mild oxidative and thermal stress can extend lifespan by hormetic mechanisms. Here we show that the botanical pesticide plumbagin, while toxic to C. elegans nematodes at high doses, extends lifespan at low doses. Because plumbagin ...
متن کاملNeuronal ROS signaling rather than AMPK/sirtuin-mediated energy sensing links dietary restriction to lifespan extension.
Dietary restriction (DR) extends lifespan and promotes metabolic health in evolutionary distinct species. DR is widely believed to promote longevity by causing an energy deficit leading to increased mitochondrial respiration. We here show that inhibitors of mitochondrial complex I promote physical activity, stress resistance as well as lifespan of Caenorhabditis elegans despite normal food upta...
متن کاملIntracellular protein glycosylation modulates insulin mediated lifespan in C. elegans
O-linked-β-N-acetylglucosamine (O-GlcNAc) modification is a regulatory, nuclear and cytoplasmic post-translational glycosylation of proteins associated with age-related diseases such as Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, and type II diabetes. Global elevation of O-GlcNAc levels on intracellular proteins can induce insulin resistance, the hallmark of type II diabetes, in mammalian systems. InC. elegans, ...
متن کاملLifespan extension by conditions that inhibit translation in Caenorhabditis elegans.
Many conditions that shift cells from states of nutrient utilization and growth to states of cell maintenance extend lifespan. We have carried out a systematic lifespan analysis of conditions that inhibit protein synthesis. We find that reducing the levels of ribosomal proteins, ribosomal-protein S6 kinase or translation-initiation factors increases the lifespan of Caenorhabditis elegans. These...
