On the Molecular Basis of D-Bifunctional Protein Deficiency Type III
Molecular basis of D-bifunctional protein (D-BP) deficiency was studied with wild type and five disease-causing variants of 3R-hydroxyacyl-CoA dehydrogenase fragment of the human MFE-2 (multifunctional enzyme type 2) protein. Complementation analysis in vivo in yeast and in vitro enzyme kinetic and stability determinants as well as in silico stability and structural fluctuation calculations wer...
متن کاملPeroxisomal D-hydroxyacyl-CoA dehydrogenase deficiency: resolution of the enzyme defect and its molecular basis in bifunctional protein deficiency.
Peroxisomes play an essential role in a number of different metabolic pathways, including the beta-oxidation of a distinct set of fatty acids and fatty acid derivatives. The importance of the peroxisomal beta-oxidation system in humans is made apparent by the existence of a group of inherited diseases in which peroxisomal beta-oxidation is impaired. This includes X-linked adrenoleukodystrophy a...
متن کاملPeroxisomal bifunctional protein deficiency revisited: resolution of its true enzymatic and molecular basis.
In the past few years, many patients have been described who have a defect of unknown origin in the peroxisomal beta-oxidation pathway. Complementation analysis has been done by various groups to establish the extent of the genetic heterogeneity among the patients. These studies were based on the use of two established cell lines, one with a deficiency of acyl-CoA oxidase and one with a deficie...
متن کاملMolecular basis of protein S deficiency.
Protein S deficiency (PSD) has been the most difficult to study among the classical inherited thrombophilic factors. This is in part due to the peculiar biology of protein S (PS), which has an anticoagulant role but no enzymatic activity, and because it interacts with plasma components that function in both haemostasis and inflammation. Clinically, it also has been difficult to define and stand...
متن کاملMolecular basis of antithrombin deficiency.
Antithrombin (AT) is the most important physiological inhibitor of coagulation proteases. It is activated by glycosaminoglycans such as heparin. Hereditary antithrombin deficiency is a rare disease that is mainly associated with venous thromboembolism. So far, more than 200 different mutations in the antithrombin gene (SERPINC1) have been described. The aim of our study was to characterise the ...
