Superoxide free radicals are produced in glyoxysomes.
The production of superoxide free radicals in pellet and supernatant fractions of glyoxysomes, specialized plant peroxisomes from watermelon (Citrullus vulgaris Schrad.) cotyledons, was investigated. Upon inhibition of the endogenous superoxide dismutase, xanthine, and hypoxanthine induced in glyoxysomal supernatants the generation of O(2) (-) radicals and this was inhibited by allopurinol. In ...
متن کاملReactive intermediates in cytochrome p450 catalysis.
Recently, we reported the spectroscopic and kinetic characterizations of cytochrome P450 compound I in CYP119A1, effectively closing the catalytic cycle of cytochrome P450-mediated hydroxylations. In this minireview, we focus on the developments that made this breakthrough possible. We examine the importance of enzyme purification in the quest for reactive intermediates and report the preparati...
متن کاملRadicals: Reactive Intermediates with Translational Potential
This Perspective illustrates the defining characteristics of free radical chemistry, beginning with its rich and storied history. Studies from our laboratory are discussed along with recent developments emanating from others in this burgeoning area. The practicality and chemoselectivity of radical reactions enable rapid access to molecules of relevance to drug discovery, agrochemistry, material...
متن کاملFree radicals in carcinogenesis.
It has become clear since the workshop that free radicals are implicated not only in the promotion phase of carcinogenesis but during initiation as well. Since the workshop, however, despite intriguing trapping studies with Superoxide disimilase. catalase, and Cu-DIPS [copper(II)(3,5-diisopropylsalicylate)2] and generation of OJ using xanthine oxidase, little substantive evidence has been obtai...
