https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Methylisocitrate%20lyase
The enzyme methylisocitrate lyase () catalyzes the chemical reaction (2S,3R)-3-hydroxybutane-1,2,3-tricarboxylate pyruvate + succinate The reaction is similar to that of isocitrate lyase, except that an additional methyl group (marked with an asterisk in the above scheme) is present, meaning that citrate is replaced by methylcitrate and glyoxylate by pyruvate. In fact, in some bacteria such as Mycobacterium tuberculosis, isocitrate lyase actually plays the role of methylisocitrate lyase. This enzyme belongs to the family of lyases, specifically the oxo-acid-lyases, which cleave carbon-carbon bonds. The systematic name of this enzyme class is (2S,3R)-3-hydroxybutane-1,2,3-tricarboxylate pyruvate-lyase (succinate-forming). Other names in common use include 2-methylisocitrate lyase, MICL, and (2S,3R)-3-hydroxybutane-1,2,3-tricarboxylate pyruvate-lyase. This enzyme participates in propanoate metabolism. Methylisocitrate lyase was discovered in 1976. Structural studies As of late 2007, 6 structures have been solved for this class of enzymes, with PDB accession codes , , , , , and . The structure is very similar to that of phosphoenolpyruvate mutase. A homotetrameric biological unit is composed of beta barrels with the active site at one end. A magnesium ion is present in the active site, and an active-site "gating loop" moves inward toward it when substrate binds and away with no substrate bound, thus shielding the reaction from solvent. Helices are present all around

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Naphthoate%20synthase
The enzyme 1,4-dihydroxy-2-naphthoyl-CoA synthase () catalyzes the sixth step in the biosynthesis of phylloquinone and menaquinone, the two forms of vitamin K. In E. coli, 1,4-dihydroxy-2-naphthoyl-CoA synthase, formerly known as naphthoate synthase, is encoded by menB and uses O-succinylbenzoyl-CoA as a substrate and converts it to 1,4-dihydroxy-2-naphthoyl-CoA. Nomenclature MenB is part of the crotonase fold super family, named after the crotonase fold in their structure. The systematic name for MenB is 4-(2-carboxyphenyl)-4-oxobutanoyl-CoA dehydratase (cyclizing). Other common names include: Naphthoate synthase 1,4-dihydroxy-2-naphthoate synthase Dihydroxynaphthoate synthase DHNA-CoA synthase Reaction It was originally thought that the product of this reaction had an oxygen where the SCoA currently resides, however; new research has shown that MenB only catalyzes the above reaction. There is a different enzyme that cleaves the SCoA and attaches the oxygen. Structure MenB is composed of two hexamers in an asymmetric unit, these hexamers are each composed of two trimers in an eclipsed arrangement. Each sub unit of the hexamers has three C terminal alpha helices, and a N terminal spiral core. These sub units come together to form the active site of the enzyme. The channel formed by alpha helices that can be seen in the middle of the enzyme leads to the active site. This opening exists on both top and bottom of the enzyme, allowing substrates different entry points
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GP1BA
Platelet glycoprotein Ib alpha chain also known as glycoprotein Ib (platelet), alpha polypeptide or CD42b (Cluster of Differentiation 42b), is a protein that in humans is encoded by the GP1BA gene. Function Glycoprotein Ib (GP Ib) is a platelet surface membrane glycoprotein receptor composed of a heterodimer, an alpha chain and a beta chain, that are linked by disulfide bonds. The Gp Ib functions as a receptor for von Willebrand factor (VWF). The complete receptor complex includes noncovalent association of the alpha and beta subunits with platelet glycoprotein IX and platelet glycoprotein V to form the glycoprotein Ib-IX-V complex. Binding of the GP Ib-IX-V complex to VWF facilitates initial platelet adhesion to vascular subendothelium after vascular injury, and also initiates signaling events within the platelet that lead to enhanced platelet activation, thrombosis, and hemostasis. This gene encodes the alpha subunit. Several polymorphisms and mutations have been described in this gene, some of which are the cause of Bernard–Soulier syndromes and platelet-type von Willebrand disease. Interactions GP1BA has been shown to interact with YWHAZ and FLNB. See also Cluster of differentiation References Further reading External links Clusters of differentiation

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leptin%20receptor
Leptin receptor, also known as LEP-R or OB-R, is a type I cytokine receptor, a protein that in humans is encoded by the LEPR gene. LEP-R functions as a receptor for the fat cell-specific hormone leptin. LEP-R has also been designated as CD295 (cluster of differentiation 295). Its location is the cell membrane, and it has extracellular, trans-membrane and intracellular sections (protein regions). History The Leptin Receptor was discovered in 1995 by Louis Tartaglia and his colleagues at Millennium Pharmaceuticals. This same team demonstrated the leptin receptor was expressed by the mouse db gene. Furthermore, in 1996, after co-discovering the Leptin gene with Jeffrey Friedman et al. in 1994, (which involved a reverse genetic/positional cloning strategy to clone ob and db), Rudolph Leibel, working with collaborators also at Millennium Pharmaceuticals and colleague Streamson Chua, confirmed cloning of the leptin receptor by demonstrating that an apparent leptin receptor cloned from a choroid plexus library using leptin as ligand, mapped to a physical map that included db and fa. Structure Like other cytokine receptors, Leptin receptor protein has three different regions: i) extracellular, ii) trans-membrane, and iii) intracellular. The extracellular part has 5 functional domains: i) membrane distal 1st cytokine receptor homology (CRH1), ii) Immunoglobulin like (Ig), iii) 2nd cytokine receptor homology (CRH2) and iv) two membrane proximal fibronectine type-III (FNIII) domains

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coagulation%20factor%20II%20receptor
Proteinase-activated receptor 1 (PAR1) also known as protease-activated receptor 1 or coagulation factor II (thrombin) receptor is a protein that in humans is encoded by the F2R gene. PAR1 is a G protein-coupled receptor and one of four protease-activated receptors involved in the regulation of thrombotic response. Highly expressed in platelets and endothelial cells, PAR1 plays a key role in mediating the interplay between coagulation and inflammation, which is important in the pathogenesis of inflammatory and fibrotic lung diseases. It is also involved both in disruption and maintenance of endothelial barrier integrity, through interaction with either thrombin or activated protein C, respectively. Structure PAR1 is a transmembrane G-protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) that shares much of its structure with the other protease-activated receptors. These characteristics include having seven transmembrane alpha helices, four extracellular loops and three intracellular loops. PAR1 specifically contains 425 amino acid residues arranged for optimal binding of thrombin at its extracellular N-terminus. The C-terminus of PAR1 is located on the intracellular side of the cell membrane as part of its cytoplasmic tail. Signal transduction pathway Activation PAR1 is activated when the terminal 41 amino acids of its N-terminus are cleaved by thrombin, a serine protease. Thrombin recognizes PAR1 by a Lysine-Aspartate-Proline-Arginine-Serine sequence at the N-terminal, where it cuts the pept

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aspartate%E2%80%94tRNA%28Asn%29%20ligase
Aspartate—tRNAAsn ligase (, nondiscriminating aspartyl-tRNA synthetase) is an enzyme with systematic name L-aspartate:tRNAAsx ligase (AMP-forming). This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction ATP + L-aspartate + tRNAAsx AMP + diphosphate + aspartyl-tRNAAsx The 3 substrates of this enzyme are ATP, L-asparagine, and tRNAAsx, whereas its 3 products are AMP, diphosphate, and asparaginyl-tRNAAsx. When this enzyme acts on tRNAAsp, it catalyses the same reaction as EC 6.1.1.12, aspartate---tRNA ligase. It has, however, diminished discrimination, so that it can also form aspartyl-tRNAAsn. This relaxation of specificity has been found to result from the absence of a loop in the tRNA that specifically recognizes the third position of the anticodon [1]. This accounts for the ability of this enzyme in, for example, Thermus thermophilus, to recognize both tRNAAsp (GUC anticodon) and tRNAAsn (GUU anticodon). The aspartyl-tRNAAsn is not used in protein synthesis until it is converted by EC 6.3.5.6, asparaginyl-tRNA synthase (glutamine-hydrolysing), into asparaginyl-tRNAAsn. This enzyme belongs to the family of ligases, to be specific those forming carbon-oxygen bonds in aminoacyl-tRNA and related compounds. The systematic name of this enzyme class is L-asparaginyl:tRNAAsx ligase (AMP-forming). This enzyme is also called nondiscriminating asparaginyl-tRNA synthetase.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Immobilized%20whole%20cell
The immobilized whole cell system is an alternative to enzyme immobilization. Unlike enzyme immobilization, where the enzyme is attached to a solid support (such as calcium alginate or activated PVA or activated PEI), in immobilized whole cell systems, the target cell is immobilized. Such methods may be implemented when the enzymes required are difficult or expensive to extract, an example being intracellular enzymes. Also, if a series of enzymes are required in the reaction; whole cell immobilization may be used for convenience. This is only done on a commercial basis when the need for the product is more justified. Multiple enzymes may be introduced into the reaction, thus eliminating the need for immobilization of multiple enzymes. Furthermore, intracellular enzymes need not be extracted prior to the reaction; they may be used directly. However, some enzymes may be used for the metabolic needs of the cell, leading to reduced yield of the cell. References See also Immobilized enzyme Biochemistry methods

Malonyl-CoA serves as the primary carbon donor in fatty acid biosynthesis, followed by a series of reduction and dehydration reactions to remove the acyl group. Reaction pathway Biotin carboxylases are a conserved enzyme present within biotin-dependent carboxylase complexes such as acetyl-CoA carboxylase. How biotin carboxylase functions is, within the relevant carboxylase complex, there is a biotin carboxyl-carrier protein which is covalently linked to biotin via a Lys-residue. Both biotin carboxyl

In prokaryotes FTHFS activity is expressed by a monofunctional homotetrameric enzyme of about 560 amino acid residues. Nomenclature The systematic name of this enzyme class is formate:tetrahydrofolate ligase (ADP-forming). Other names in common use include: formyltetrahydrofolate synthetase, 10-formyltetrahydrofolate synthetase, tetrahydrofolic formylase, and tetrahydrofolate formylase. Examples Human genes encoding formate-tetrahydrofolate ligases include: MTHFD1 – cytoplasmic MTHFD1L – mitochond

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glutamate%E2%80%93cysteine%20ligase
Glutamate–cysteine ligase (GCL) ), previously known as γ-glutamylcysteine synthetase (GCS), is the first enzyme of the cellular glutathione (GSH) biosynthetic pathway that catalyzes the chemical reaction: L-glutamate + L-cysteine + ATP γ-glutamyl cysteine + ADP + Pi GSH, and by extension GCL, is critical to cell survival. Nearly every eukaryotic cell, from plants to yeast to humans, expresses a form of the GCL protein for the purpose of synthesizing GSH. To further highlight the critical nature of this enzyme, genetic knockdown of GCL results in embryonic lethality. Furthermore, dysregulation of GCL enzymatic function and activity is known to be involved in the vast majority of human diseases, such as diabetes, Parkinson's disease, Alzheimer's disease, COPD, HIV/AIDS, and cancer. This typically involves impaired function leading to decreased GSH biosynthesis, reduced cellular antioxidant capacity, and the induction of oxidative stress. However, in cancer, GCL expression and activity is enhanced, which serves to both support the high level of cell proliferation and confer resistance to many chemotherapeutic agents. Function Glutamate cysteine ligase (GCL) catalyzes the first and rate-limiting step in the production of the cellular antioxidant glutathione (GSH), involving the ATP-dependent condensation of cysteine and glutamate to form the dipeptide gamma-glutamylcysteine (γ-GC). This peptide coupling is unique in that it occurs between the amino moiety of the cysteine and
