Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsBiochemical Studies on Recombinant Human Isobutyryl-CoA DehydrogenaseNasser E. Ibrahim, Al-Walid A. MohsenProblem statement: Human Isobutyryl-CoA Dehydrogenase (IBD) is member of the Acyl-CoA Dehydrogenases family. It is involved in Val metabolism. In this study we modified the purification method of the IBD and further spectroscopic characterization was conducted. Approach: Using DTT in the buffers during the purification, IBD purified to homogeneity by different chromatographic steps. Reactivity of Cys residues were measured using … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 7, Issue 2 · 12 Aug 2011 · 7,539 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractExpression of Metallothionein-Like Protein 2B Gene Induced by Different Concentrations of Copper in White Spruce (Picea glauca)Megan McKergow, Kabwe NkongoloThe alterations to the expressions of metal transporter genes can induce metal ion uptake to maintain cell homeostasis when metal concentrations are low. Metallothioneins (MTs) are a class of low molecular mass (4-8 kDa), cysteine (Cys)-rich proteins that can bind metals via the thiol groups of their Cys residues. Studies on MT gene expressions in higher plants, such as conifers, … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 18, Issue 4 · 25 Dec 2022 · 5,118 accessesView PDF Cite
