NAD-dependent dehydrogenase bioelectrocatalysis: the ability of a naphthoquinone redox polymer to regenerate NAD.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Electron mediation between NAD-dependent enzymes using quinone moieties typically requires the use of a diaphorase as an intermediary enzyme. The ability for a naphthoquinone redox polymer to independently oxidize enzymatically-generated NADH is demonstrated for application to glucose/O2 enzymatic fuel cells.

Preliminary Report of NAD+-Dependent Amino Acid Dehydrogenase Producing Bacteria Isolated from Soil
Amino acid dehydrogenases (L-amino acid: oxidoreductase deaminating EC 1.4.1.X) are members of the wider superfamily of oxidoreductases that catalyze the reversible oxidative deamination of an amino acid to its keto acid and ammonia with the concomitant reduction of either NAD+, NADP+ or FAD. These enzymes have been received much attention as biocatalysts for use in biosensors or diagnostic kit...
متن کاملMechanisms of toxic injury to isolated hepatocytes by 1-naphthol.
The mechanism(s) of toxicity of 1-naphthol and two of its possible metabolites, 1,2- and 1,4-naphthoquinone, to freshly isolated rat hepatocytes has been studied. 1-Naphthol and both naphthoquinones exhibited a dose-dependent toxicity to hepatocytes. [1-14C]-1-Naphthol was metabolised by hepatocytes predominantly to its glucuronic acid and sulphate ester conjugates, but small amounts of covalen...
متن کاملEngineering NAD+ availability for Escherichia coli whole-cell biocatalysis: a case study for dihydroxyacetone production
BACKGROUND Whole-cell redox biocatalysis has been intensively explored for the production of valuable compounds because excellent selectivity is routinely achieved. Although the cellular cofactor level, redox state and the corresponding enzymatic activity are expected to have major effects on the performance of the biocatalysts, our ability remains limited to predict the outcome upon variation ...
متن کاملThe metabolism of menadione impairs the ability of rat liver mitochondria to take up and retain calcium.
The ability of mitochondria to take up and retain Ca2+, and thereby to effect the free intracellular concentration of this ion, is well established. More recently, it has been reported (Lehninger, A. L., Vercesi, A., and Bababunmi, E. A. (1978) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U. S. A. 75, 1690-1696) that the redox state of pyridine nucleotides modulates mitochondrial Ca2+ balance, since the oxidation of...
