An 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 کاملRegulation of yeast central metabolism by enzyme phosphorylation
As a frequent post-translational modification, protein phosphorylation regulates many cellular processes. Although several hundred phosphorylation sites have been mapped to metabolic enzymes in Saccharomyces cerevisiae, functionality was demonstrated for few of them. Here, we describe a novel approach to identify in vivo functionality of enzyme phosphorylation by combining flux analysis with pr...
متن کاملAn enzyme with self-control
U nlike enzymes that depend on other proteins to rein in their activity, polo-like kinase 4 (Plk4) does the job itself. Holland et al. reveal that Plk4, which helps regulate centro-some duplication, reduces its activity by initiating its own destruction (1). By sacrifi cing itself, the protein prevents cells from building too many centrosomes. Cells prepare to divide by duplicating the centroso...
متن کاملControl of Enzyme Activity in Higher Animals.
A brief survey of enzyme control mechanisms in higher animals has been made. The regulations so common in bacteria, induction and repression, seem relatively trivial in higher forms. Rates of enzyme synthesis are set during differentiation; they do not vary greatly under different nutritional or metabolic conditions. Far more important seem regulations which depend on reversible or irreversible...
متن کاملYeast alpha-isopropylmalate isomerase. Factors affecting stability and enzyme activity.
Yeast alpha-isopropylmalate isomerase was found to be markedly stabilized by high concentrations of glycerol and (NH4)2SO4. Such conditions of high ionic strength inhibited the enzyme, stabilized the enzyme to heat, and affected kinetic parameters. The isomerase was found to exhibit ionic strength-dependent hysteresis when enzyme, totally but reversibly inhibited by storage under conditions of ...
