When an enzyme isn’t just an enzyme anymore
In this issue (pages 1425–1440) Bross et al. provide evidence of surprising alternative functions for two isoforms of the plastid enzyme arogenate dehydratase. This study points to a previously unsuspected connection between central metabolism and chloroplast division and a potential new mechanism for retrograde signaling. These findings add to a growing awareness of the complexities of protein...
متن کاملAn Overview of Asparaginase Enzyme Features: An Anticancer Enzyme with High Potency
Introduction: One of the important findings in the pharmaceutical and medical industry is the use of the asparaginazase enzyme as an anticancer drug. The asparaginase enzyme, hydrolyzing the amino acid of asparagine, reduces this amino acid in the blood and causes the death of cancer cells. Today, the enzyme is used to treat various types of leukemia, particularly acute lymphoblastic leukemia, ...
متن کاملAn investigation of the effects of using an enzyme-probiotic combination on broilers performance
BACKGROUND: Growth promoters are chemical and biologicalsubstances that are added to livestock food with the aimto improve the growth of chickens in fattening and the utilizationof food, and in this way achieve better production and financialresults. OBJECTIVES:An experiment was conducted to evaluatethe effects of enzyme complex, probiotic, and their combinationon performance of broilers fed a ...

The structural components that lead to enzyme function are discussed for one simple enzyme-catalysed reaction: that mediated by triosephosphate isomerase. First, the recognition and binding of the substrates' phospho group is seen to involve four main-chain-NH-hydrogen bonds, two of which are positioned at the positive end of a short alpha-helix aimed precisely at the phospho group and interact...
