The status, quality, and expansion of the NIH full-length cDNA project: the Mammalian Gene Collection (MGC).

Genome Res. 14 , 2121-7, (2004)

The National Institutes of Health's Mammalian Gene Collection (MGC) project was designed to generate and sequence a publicly accessible cDNA resource containing a complete open reading frame (ORF) for every human and mouse gene. The project initially used a r...

Mechanisms of action of escapin, a bactericidal agent in the ink secretion of the sea hare Aplysia californica: rapid and long-lasting DNA condensation and involvement of the OxyR-regulated oxidative stress pathway.

Antimicrob. Agents Chemother. 56(4) , 1725-34, (2012)

The marine snail Aplysia californica produces escapin, an L-amino acid oxidase, in its defensive ink. Escapin uses L-lysine to produce diverse products called escapin intermediate products of L-lysine (EIP-K), including α-amino-ε-caproic acid, Δ¹-piperidine-2...

Advances in non-snake venom L-amino acid oxidase.

Appl. Biochem. Biotechnol. 167(1) , 1-13, (2012)

L-amino acid oxidase is widely found in diverse organisms and has different properties. It is thought to contribute to antimicrobial activity, amino acid catabolism, and so forth. The purpose of this communication is to summarize the advances in non-snake ven...

Phylogenetic analysis supports horizontal gene transfer of L-amino acid oxidase gene in Streptococcus oligofermentans.

Infect. Genet. Evol. 12(5) , 1005-9, (2012)

Phylogenetic analysis of 10 amino acid sequences from 19 Streptococcus species showed that S. oligofermentans clustered within the mitis group. However, the l-amino acid oxidase (LAAO) of S. oligofermentans showed a different clustering pattern from the other...

L-amino acid oxidase-induced apoptosis in filamentous Botrytis cinerea.

Anal. Biochem. 420(1) , 93-5, (2012)

As opposed to single-cell yeast and mammalian cell lines, apoptosis has not been greatly investigated in filamentous fungi because antibodies to the relevant fungal apoptosis-related proteins are not available commercially and because multicellular organisms ...

Role of operon aaoSo-mutT in antioxidant defense in Streptococcus oligofermentans.

PLoS ONE 7(5) , e38133, (2012)

Previously, we have found that an insertional inactivation of aao(So), a gene encoding L-amino acid oxidase (LAAO), causes marked repression of the growth of Streptococcus oligofermentans. Here, we found that aao(So) and mutT, a homolog of pyrophosphohydrolas...

Enzymatic preparation of 5-hydroxy-L-proline, N-Cbz-5-hydroxy-L-proline, and N-Boc-5-hydroxy-L-proline from (α-N-protected)-L-ornithine using a transaminase or an amine oxidase.

Enzyme Microb. Technol. 48(6-7) , 445-53, (2011)

N-Cbz-4,5-dehydro-L-prolineamide or N-Boc-4,5-dehydro-L-prolineamide are alternative key intermediates for the synthesis of saxagliptin, a dipeptidyl peptidase IV (DPP4) inhibitor recently approved for treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus. An efficient bioca...

High resolution X-ray crystal structures of L-phenylalanine oxidase (deaminating and decarboxylating) from Pseudomonas sp. P-501. Structures of the enzyme-ligand complex and catalytic mechanism.

J. Biochem. 150(6) , 659-69, (2011)

The mature form of L-Phe oxidase of Pseudomonas sp. P-501 (PAOpt) catalyzes the oxygenative decarboxylation of L-Phe and the oxidative deamination of L-Met, and is highly specific for L-Phe. The crystal structures of PAOpt individually complexed with L-Phe an...

Effect of dietary lysine on hepatic lysine catabolism in broilers.

Poult. Sci. 92(10) , 2705-12, (2013)

Lysine is frequently a first- or second-limiting amino acid in poultry diets. Improving the efficiency of lysine use for protein synthesis would effectively lower the lysine requirement and decrease feed costs. Understanding how lysine is degraded and how the...

Crystallization and preliminary X-ray diffraction analysis of an L-amino-acid oxidase from Bothrops jararacussu venom.

Acta Crystallogr. Sect. F Struct. Biol. Cryst. Commun. 68(Pt 2) , 211-3, (2012)

Snake-venom L-amino-acid oxidases (SV-LAAOs) trigger a wide range of local and systematic effects, including inhibition of platelet aggregation, cytotoxicity, haemolysis, apoptosis and haemorrhage. These effects mainly arise from the uncontrolled release of t...
