The subunit molecular weight of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) from baker's yeast has been evaluated. The subunit molecular weight value is shown to be 25,500 daltons by analytical ultracentrifugation, SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, and the number of peptides produced by CNBr cleavage. The number of NADP binding sites was determined to be one per 25,500 dalton unit.

Objective: G6PD deficiency is a potentially life-threatening condition in neonates presenting with hyperbilirubinemia. This study aims to identify clinical and laboratory predictors of G6PD deficiency in neonates presenting with hyperbilirubinemia.
Methods: This was a retrospective study of 227 term neonates admitted to Heyuan People's Hospital from January 2019 to October 2023.

Microbial metabolic enzymes play a crucial role in several biological processes that have a significant impact on growth and proliferation. Therefore, inhibiting specific key metabolic enzymes can be an applicable approach for developing antimicrobial agents that selectively target pathogens. In the current study, selenium nanoparticles (Se NPs) extracellularly biosynthesized by Nocardiopsis sp.

Dihydroporphyrin iron (DH-Fe) is a novel plant growth regulator that plays significant roles in plant stress resistance. We found that is extremely sensitive to low temperature (LT) with a threshold of 25°C. To evaluate whether and how DH-Fe alleviates LT stress in , different DH-Fe concentrations (0, 10, 20, and 40 μg·L) were applied to estimate its effects on C and N metabolism and antioxidative capacity in grown under 20°C.

The oxidative pentose phosphate pathway (OPPP) plays an important role for the generation of reducing power in all eukaryotes. In plant cells the OPPP operates in several cellular compartments, but as full cycle only in the plastid stroma where it is essential. As suggested by our recent results, OPPP reactions are also mandatory inside peroxisomes, at least during fertilisation.

To guide clinical blood transfusion practices for pediatric patients, the National Health Commission has issued the health standard "Guideline for pediatric transfusion" (WS/T 795-2022). Blood transfusion is one of the most commonly used supportive treatments for children with hematological diseases. This guideline provides guidance and recommendations for blood transfusions in children with aplastic anemia, thalassemia, autoimmune hemolytic anemia, glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase deficiency, acute leukemia, myelodysplastic syndromes, immune thrombocytopenic purpura, and thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura.
