After oral administration to rats, absorption of INAA was slow but complete. Plasma level curves reached a plateau for INAA as well as for the two metabolites, which were rapidly formed (MI and MII). The plateau concentration led to an increase of the apparent elimination half-life, which was short after i.v. administration due to the small volume of distribution and to the high rate of metabolism. In any case the half-life was independent of the dose and the pharmacokinetics of INAA remained linear from 1.5 to 15 mg/kg. The two rapidly formed plasma metabolites were eliminated more slowly than INAA. INAA and its metabolites were distributed only sparsely in all tissues under investigation, probably due to the high protein binding. Both routes of administration resulted in elimination of the radioactivity mainly by the urine. Besides the two main metabolites with known structures (MI and MII) small amounts of INAA and two additional metabolites were detected.

The formation of superoxide dismutase 1 (SOD1) filaments has been implicated in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). Although the disulfide bond formed between Cys57 and Cys146 in the active state has been well studied, the role of the reduced cysteine residues, Cys6 and Cys111, in SOD1 filament formation remains unclear. In this study, we investigated the role of reduced cysteine residues by determining and comparing cryoelectron microscopy (cryo-EM) structures of wild-type (WT) and C6A/C111A SOD1 filaments under thiol-based reducing and metal-depriving conditions, starting with protein samples possessing enzymatic activity.

ConspectusIons are the crucial signaling components for living organisms. In cells, their transportation across pore-forming membrane proteins is vital for regulating physiological functions, such as generating ionic current signals in response to target molecule recognition. This ion transport is affected by confined interactions and local environments within the protein pore.

The protection of steel based on microbial biomineralization has emerged as a novel and eco-friendly strategy for corrosion control. However, the molecular basis of the biomineralization process in mineralization bacteria remains largely unexplored. We previously reported that EPS+ strain provides protection against steel corrosion by forming a hybrid biomineralization film.
