The relative importance of camphor (CAM) plasmid-coded putidaredoxin reductase (PdR) and the chromosome-coded flavin reductases Frp1, Frp2 and Fred for supplying reduced FMN (FNR) to the enantiocomplementary 2,5- and 3,6-diketocamphane monooxygenases...
The CAM plasmid-coded isoenzymic diketocamphane monooxygenases induced in Pseudomonas putida ATCC 17453 (NCIMB 10007) by growth of the bacterium on the bicyclic monoterpene (rac)-camphor are notable both for their interesting history, and their strat...
The type III secretion systems (T3SS) encoded in pathogenicity islands SPI-1 and SPI-2 are key virulence factors of Salmonella. These systems translocate proteins known as effectors into eukaryotic cells during infection. To characterize the function...
The progressive titres of key monooxygenases and their requisite native donors of reducing power were used to assess the relative contribution of various camphor plasmid (CAM plasmid)- and chromosome-coded activities to biodegradation of (rac)-campho...
The epithelial cell-adhesion molecule (EpCAM) is hyperglycosylated in carcinoma tissue and the oncogenic function of EpCAM primarily depends on the degree of glycosylation. Inhibiting EpCAM glycosylation is expected to have an inhibitory effect on ca...
