The TorRS two component system regulates expression of TMAO reductase in response to high hydrostatic pressure in Vibrio fluvialis
Previously we showed that the HHP-inducible trimethylamine N-oxide (TMAO) reductase improves the pressure tolerance of deep-sea strain Vibrio fluvialis QY27. Here, we investigated the molecular ...

Potential Health Benefits of Methylene Blue
Methylene blue acts as a co-factor for nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH)-dependent methemoglobin reductase, which leads to the formation of reduced methylthioninium chloride that ...

Molecular basis for allosteric specificity regulation in class Ia ribonucleotide reductase from Escherichia coli
Ribonucleotide reductase (RNR) converts ribonucleotides to deoxyribonucleotides, a reaction that is essential for DNA biosynthesis and repair. This enzyme is responsible for reducing all four ...
