Glucose-6-Phosphate Dehydrogenase (G6PD) is a ubiquitous cytoplasmic enzyme converting glucose-6-phosphate into 6-phosphogluconate in the pentose phosphate pathway (PPP). The G6PD deficiency renders the inability to regenerate glutathione due to lack...
The Rossmann fold enzymes are involved in essential biochemical pathways such as nucleotide and amino acid metabolism. Their functioning relies on interaction with cofactors, small nucleoside-based compounds specifically recognized by a conserved βαβ...
The origin of agricultural products is crucial to their quality and safety. This study explored the differences in chemical composition and structure of rice from different origins using fluorescence detection technology. These differences are mainly...
Two-photon (2P) fluorescence lifetime imaging microscopy (FLIM) was used to track cellular metabolism with drug treatment of auto-fluorescent coenzymes NAD(P)H and FAD in living cancer cells. Simultaneous excitation at 800 nm of both coenzymes was co...
Understanding and manipulating the cofactor preferences of NAD(P)-dependent oxidoreductases, the most widely distributed enzyme group in nature, is increasingly crucial in bioengineering. However, large-scale identification of the cofactor preference...
Nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN) is a bioactive compound in NAD(P) metabolism, which exhibits diverse pharmaceutical interests. However, enhancing NMN biosynthesis faces the challange of competing with cell growth and disturbing intracellular redox ...
