Pyridoxal enzymes of transamination (aspartate aminotransferase, KF 2.6.1.1. and alanine aminotransferase, KF 2.6.1.2) have been studied for their activity in different departments of the rabbit brain under the effect of ionizing radiation and introduction of pyridoxal phosphate. It has been established that the effect of ionizing radiations does not evoke the change in aspartate aminotransferase and alanine aminotransferase activity in different structure-functional departments of the rabbit brain, the decrease of aminotransferases activity in the acute period of the radiation sickness being natural. Introduction of pyridoxal phosphate irradiated animals promotes relative normalization of activity of the enzymes under study.

Purines such as ATP are regulatory transmitters in motility of the gastrointestinal tract. The aims of this study were to propose functional roles of purinergic regulation of esophageal motility. An isolated segment of the rat esophagus was placed in an organ bath, and mechanical responses were recorded using a force transducer.

Pyridoxal 5'-phosphate (PLP)-dependent enzymes are involved in many cellular processes and possess unequalled catalytic versatility. Rational design through site-directed mutagenesis is a powerful strategy for creating tailor-made enzymes for a wide range of biocatalytic applications. PLP-dependent methionine γ-lyase (MGL), which degrades sulfur-containing amino acids, is an encouraging enzyme for many therapeutic purposes - from combating bacterial resistant strains and fungi to antitumor activity.

Background: Dietary supplementation for beef cattle, using natural plant extracts, such as oregano essential oil (OEO), has proven effective in enhancing growth performance, beef production quantity and quality, and ensuring food safety. However, the precise mechanisms underlying these effects remain unclear. This study investigated the impact of OEO on carcass traits, muscle fiber structure, meat quality, oxidative status, flavor compounds, and gene regulatory mechanisms in the longissimus thoracis (LT) muscles of beef cattle.
