A protein component usually associated with RNA polymerase can be separated from the enzyme by chromatography on phosphocellulose. The polymerase is unable to transcribe T4 DNA unless this factor ...

Researchers have now uncovered the 3D structure of the RNA enzyme SAMURI. Their study provides insights into the development of ribozymes and the evolution of catalytically active RNA. Researchers ...

Graca et al. reports a fundamental missing link in the ethanol metabolism of mycobacteria and illuminates the role of a flavoprotein dehydrogenase that acts as an electron shuttle between an uncommon ...

This valuable work examines the role of the oxidoreductase MftG in Mycolicibacerium smegmatis alcohol metabolism. A solid set of data is presented to show that, in the context of ethanol metabolism, ...

With the identification of the mutation responsible for most FD cases, carrier testing began. Carrier testing, based on DNA analyses, is available for the two most common mutations (major haplotype ...
