Activator in Enzyme-catalyzed Reactions (14 results)

EC NUMBER
COMMENTARY
LITERATURE
ENZYME 3D STRUCTURE
administration at 0.01 mM to roots results in remarkable induction of enzyme gene expression and dramatic increase of gene activity
-
activates plastidic isozymes by 10fold by direct action on the enzyme, no activation of the cytosolic isozyme
-
induces IDO expression in the lung
-
0.5 mM, oxidative stress induces Pseudomonas putida FprA but not FprB
-
the specific activity of the enzyme increases up to 2fold after oxidative conditions imposed by methylviologen, expression of NP-Ga3PDHase in plants is induced by high treatments with methyl viologen
-
paraquat-induced reactive oxygen species production including superoxide anions in BV-2 cells is accompanied by translocation of the p67phox cytosolic subunit of NADPH oxidase to the membrane. Paraquat-induced reactive oxygen species production is inhibited by NADPH oxidase inhibitors, apocynin and diphenylene iodonium. Apocynin and diphenylene iodonium also rescue cells from paraquat-induced toxicity. The inhibitors for protein kinase C delta or extracellular signal-regulated kinases ERK1/2 can partially attenuate paraquat-induced reactive oxygen species production and cell death
-

the activity of DHAR significantly increases from 1 d after treatment with 0.05 mM and thereafter declines gradually to the control level
