Enzymes are complex macromolecules of amino-acids which bio-catalyse various body processes. Adequate concentrations of enzymes are essential for optimal functioning of the immune system. During infections, body’s enzymatic system is attacked and hence the immune system is also likely to derange. This may be detrimental for the host’s well-being and existence. Along with appropriate antimicrobi...

The combination of stable isotope labelling with direct infusion ion mobility mass spectrometry (IM-MS) enabled qualitative and quantitative monitoring of biocatalytic reactions with reduced analysis times, enhanced sensitivity and μL-level assay volumes. The new approach was demonstrated by applying to both lipase and monooxygenase enzymes, including multi-substrate screening.

We report the first example of a liposome-based energy conversion system that is useful for entrapping enzymes and NAD coenzyme to accelerate multi-step enzymatic reactions. The liposome generates a much higher catalytic current compared with the non-liposome system, which is in good consistency with numerical simulations.

An increase in peroxidation activity is considered as a nonspecific process characteristic of the pathogenesis various diseases accompanied by antioxidant deficiency. As bioregulators that can defense, antioxidants are important links multi-stage system regulation and coordination body functions. The structure function enzymes involved oxidative stress be significantly affected genetic polymorp...

the effect of long-term onion consumption on red blood cell antioxidant enzymes [glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (g6pd), superoxide dismutase (sod) and glutathione peroxidase (gpx)], were measured. the relationship of these enzymes with pcv and hemoglobin (hb) concentrations was also determined. twelve adult female goats were used for the experiment and randomly assigned to three groups. anim...

background: methyl 2-benzimidazole carbamate (carbendazim) is a synthetic fungicide used against organisms that cause different types of plant diseases. it is widely used as a preservative in leather, paint, textile, fruit, and paper industry. it is also used as an anticancer drug in clinical medicine. methods: to evaluate the low dose toxicity of this compound in mammalian tissues, carbendazim...

The immobilisation of enzymes plays an important role in many applications, including biosensors that require enzyme activity, stability and recyclability in order to function efficiently. Here we show that forisomes (plant-derived mechanoproteins) can be functionalised with enzymes by translational fusion, leading to the assembly of structures designated as forizymes. When forizymes are expres...
