Aminomalonate as an enzyme inhibitor.
When Rhodopseudomonas spheroides, which had been grown in a biotin-deficient medium, was transferred to a medium containing glycine, ocoxoglutarate and fumarate, and which normally promotes formation of much porphyrin, little or no porphyrin was formed (Lascelles, 1956); but, when glycine and oc-oxoglutarate were replaced by 8aminolaevulic acid, the biotin-deficient organisms were able to form ...
متن کاملKinetics of irreversible enzyme inhibition by an unstable inhibitor.
Computer simulations of the irreversible inhibition of an enzyme by an unstable inhibitor are presented. Data obtained at the end point of reaction are shown to conform poorly in many situations with relationships derived from integrated rate equations by setting t = infinity, and the implications concerning the experimental use of this method to determine kinetic constants describing inactivat...
متن کاملAcetylcholinesterase: molecular modeling with the whole toolkit.
Molecular modeling efforts aimed at probing the structure, function and inhibition of the acetylcholinesterase enzyme have abounded in the last decade, largely because of the system's importance to medical conditions such as myasthenia gravis, Alzheimer's disease and Parkinson's disease, and well as its famous toxicological susceptibility to nerve agents. The complexity inherent in such a syste...
متن کاملLigand-based pharmacophore modeling to identify plant-derived acetylcholinesterase inhibitor natural compounds in Alzheimer’s disease
Background: Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative disease characterized by decreased cognitive function in patients due to forming Aβ peptides and neurofibrillary tangles (NFT) in the brain. Therefore, the need to develop new treatments can reduce this risk. Acetylcholinesterase is one of the targets used in the design of new drugs for the treatment of AD. The researchers obtain new i...
متن کاملBinding of Tetracycline and Chlortetracycline to the Enzyme Trypsin: Spectroscopic and Molecular Modeling Investigations
Tetracycline (TC) and chlortetracycline (CTC) are common members of the widely used veterinary drug tetracyclines, the residue of which in the environment can enter human body, being potentially harmful. In this study, we establish a new strategy to probe the binding modes of TC and CTC with trypsin based on spectroscopic and computational modeling methods. Both TC and CTC can interact with try...
