Tailoring an alien ferredoxin to support native-like P450 monooxygenase activity.
A ferredoxin associated with biological Fe-S cluster assembly has been remodelled to transfer electrons to a P450 enzyme and support substrate oxidation at 80% of the physiological ferredoxin activity, opening up the possibility of tailoring ferredoxins to reconstitute the activity of P450 enzymes for which the electron transfer partner proteins are not known.
متن کاملCardiac remodelling hinders activation of cyclooxygenase-2, diminishing protection by delayed pharmacological preconditioning: role of HIF1 alpha and CREB.
AIMS We tested whether delayed pharmacologic preconditioning elicited by isoflurane is protective in infarct-remodelled hearts. METHODS AND RESULTS Male Wistar rats were treated with the preconditioning drug isoflurane 6 weeks after permanent ligation of the left anterior descending coronary artery. Twenty-four and 48 h later, hearts were perfused on the Langendorff system and treated with cy...
متن کاملInherited Connective Tissue Disorders of Collagens: Lessons from Targeted Mutagenesis
The extracellular matrix (ECM) is the cell structural environment in tissues and organs. The ECM is a dynamic structure that it is constantly remodelled. It contributes to tissue integrity and mechanical properties. It is also essential for maintaining tissue homeostasis, morphogenesis and differentiation, which it does, through specific interactions with cells. The ECM is composed of a mixture...
متن کاملLow bone mineral density and osteoporosis in CF
Throughout life the skeleton is constantly remodelled by a co-ordinated programme of cellular activity that removes, renews and repairs damaged bone. About 10% of the adult skeleton is remodelled each year. Specialised cells, perhaps stimulated by factors released when bone undergoes even microscopic damage, resorb a specific amount of bone from the damaged areas before undergoing a programmed ...
متن کاملMaterial forces in the context of biotissue remodelling
Remodelling of biological tissue, due to changes in microstructure, is treated in the continuum mechanical setting. Microstructural change is expressed as an evolution of the reference configuration. This evolution is expressed as a point-to-point map from the reference configuration to a remodelled configuration. A “preferred” change in configuration is considered in the form of a globally inc...
