  • Examination of these showed a putative copper homeostatis protein and a protein of unknown function, both with significant matches to Homo sapiens (e-values of 1.10e -23and 4.20e -18respectively), one aldehyde dehydrogenase with a significant match to Mus musculus (2.

  • Biosynthetic modifications to the periphery of the tetrapyrrole ring progressively cause withdrawal of electrons from the pyrrole nitrogens, thereby decreasing their basicity [ 20 21 ] . For example, oxidation of the 7-methyl group in Chl a to the electronegative aldehyde of Chl b reduces the pK of the pyrrole nitrogens by 2 pH units.

  • Retinoids are found in a variety of chemical oxidation states, including alcohol, aldehyde, ester, and carboxylic acid functionalities.

  • MG-132 is a peptide aldehyde that inhibits ubiquitin-mediated proteolysis by binding to and inactivating 20S and 26S proteasomes [ 49 62 ] . Although 1-10 μM MG-132 inhibited first polar body extrusion in rat oocytes, its activity is reversible [ 42 ] . We conducted preliminary experiments to obtain a MG-132 dose range that would transiently perturb or inhibit OM during meiosis I while enabling oocytes to complete OM following washing out of the compound.

  • In one report, ALDH1A1 protein was not detected by Western blot, but enzyme activity was detected using flow cytometry and a fluorescent aldehyde substrate [ 5 ] . In a second study, ALDH1A1 protein was detected using an ELISA assay and activity was detected using aldophosphamide as substrate [ 31 ] . In these two studies, designed to look at the relationship of ALDH1A1 activity to antitumor drug resistance, the levels of ALDH1A1 were low in HL-60 compared to other cell types, corresponding to the sensitivity of HL-60 cells to oxazaphosphorines.
