Theoretical evidence that Cu(I) complexation promotes degradation of S-nitrosothiols

Author(s): Toubin C; Yeung DY; English AM; Peslherbe GH;

The degradation of S-nitrosothiols (RSNOs) to release NO is believed to be catalyzed by CuI ions, but the mechanism remains unclear. Kinetic experiments have shown that decomposition rates vary significantly with the chemical nature of the RSNO considered. ...

Effective simulations of gas diffusion through kinetically accessible tunnels in multisubunit proteins: O2 pathways and escape routes in T-state deoxyhemoglobin

Author(s): Shadrina MS; English AM; Peslherbe GH;

The diffusion of small gases to special binding sites within polypeptide matrices pivotally defines the biochemical specificity and reactivity of proteins. We investigate here explicit O(2) diffusion in adult human hemoglobin (HbA) as a case study employing ...

Structural determination and anticholinesterase assay of C-glycosidic ellagitannins from Lawsonia inermis leaves: A study supported by DFT calculations and molecular docking

Author(s): Orabi MAA; Orabi EA; Abdel-Sattar ES; English AM; Hatano T; Elimam H;

An ellagitannin monomer, lythracin M (1), and a dimer, lythracin D (2), along with eight known monomers (3-10) were isolated from Lawsonia inermis (Lythraceae) leaves. Lythracin M (1) is a C-glycosidic ellagitannin with a flavogallonyl dilactone moiety that ...

Modeling Shows that Rotation about the Peroxide O-O Bond Assists Protein and Lipid Functional Groups in Discriminating between H2O2 and H2O

Author(s): Orabi EA; English AM;

Long associated with cell death, hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) is now known to perform many physiological roles. Unraveling its biological mechanisms of action requires atomic-level knowledge of its association with proteins and lipids, which we address here. Hi ...

Sublethal Paraquat Confers Multidrug Tolerance in Pseudomonas aeruginosa by Inducing Superoxide Dismutase Activity and Lowering Envelope Permeability.

Author(s): Martins D, McKay GA, English AM, Nguyen D

Stressors and environmental cues shape the physiological state of bacteria, and thus how they subsequently respond to antibiotic toxicity. To understand how superoxide stress can modulate survival to bactericidal antibiotics, we examined the effect of intra ...
