Published: July 2003

NADP+-Isocitrate dehydrogenase (ICDH) activity was detected in cell-free extracts of Saccharopolyspora erythraea CA340, an erythromycin producer. Apparent Km values for DL-isocitrate and NADP+ were 0.14 microM and 0.026 microM, respectively. ATP, ADP, GTP, citric acid, oxaloacetate, alpha-ketoglutarate, glyoxalate and glyoxalate plus oxaloacetate, each at 1 mM concentration, caused 50, 20 10, 50, 25, 60, 20 and 50% inhibition of ICDH activity, respectively. Phosphoenolpyruvate, fructose 1,6-diphosphate and pyruvate had no effect. ICDH specific activity profile was growth-associated and activity with dextrose or fructose as sole carbon source, was twice of that obtained with lactose.

Previous study revealed that isocitrate dehydrogenase (NADP (+)) 2, mitochondrial (), lactate dehydrogenase A (), and lactate dehydrogenase B () genes were significantly differentially expressed in liver tissues of Holstein cows among different lactation periods and associated with lipid and protein metabolism; hence, they were considered as candidates for milk production traits. Herein, the genetic effects of the three genes on milk yield, fat, and protein traits were studied by association analysis using 926 Chinese Holstein cows from 45 sire families. As a result, five single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in , one in , and three in were identified by re-sequencing, and subsequently, they were genotyped in 926 Chinese Holstein cows by genotyping by target sequencing (GBTS).

NADPH is a redox cofactor that drives the anabolic reactions. Although major NADPH generation reactions have been identified in , some minor reactions have not been identified. In the present study, we explored novel NADPH generation reactions by monitoring the fluorescence dynamics after the addition of carbon sources to starved cells, using a metagenome-derived blue fluorescent protein (mBFP) as an intracellular NADPH reporter.

NADP-dependent isocitrate dehydrogenase (NADP-ICDH) is one of the main sources of cellular reductant capacity in the form of NADPH. Although there is significant knowledge about the relevance of this enzyme during some physiological and stress processes, the available information about its involvement in fruit ripening is scarce. Using sweet green pepper (Capsicum annuum L.

Being a universal reducing agent nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate hydrogen (NADPH) plays an important role in the cellular metabolism and the implementation of anti-stress reactions in plants. There are only a few enzymes that ensure the NADPH pool formation in cells. Among them, the most important are glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PDH, EC 1.

Cancer is considered one of the main causes of human death worldwide, being characterized by an alteration of the oxidative metabolism. Many natural compounds from plant origin with anti-tumor attributes have been described. Among them, capsaicin, which is the molecule responsible for the pungency in hot pepper fruits, has been reported to show antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and analgesic activities, as well as anti-proliferative properties against cancer.
