Organomercurial lyase (MerB) catalyzes the difficult cleavage ... toward acidic cleavage under mild conditions, which supports a mechanism in which MerB enzymes use two conserved active-site ...

The plant cell wall is composed of complex polysaccharides, including cellulose, hemicellulose, and pectin, and serves as an effective physical ...

The researchers engineered a benzaldehyde lyase enzyme from Pseudomonas fluorescens ... as well as to probe the likely reaction mechanism. Ultimately, the researchers designed a mutant that ...

This study elucidates the mechanism by which pectin lyase activates plant immunity, thereby offering a theoretical foundation for further exploration of the role of pectinase in pathogen-plant ...

One key hormone, salicylic acid, is crucial for plant immunity and is produced through two main pathways: the isochorismate synthase (ICS) pathway and the phenylalanine ammonia lyase (PAL ...

Bempedoic acid has a novel mechanism of action that inhibits a cholesterol synthesis pathway by acting on ATP (adenosine triphosphate) citrate lyase, a citrate-degrading enzyme in the liver.

One key hormone, salicylic acid, is crucial for plant immunity and is produced through two main pathways: the isochorismate synthase (ICS) pathway and the phenylalanine ammonia lyase (PAL ...
