Example sentences for: oxidase
How can you use “oxidase” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
Respiratory chain enzymes were measured in 10% homogenates using previously described methods as follows: NADH dehydrogenase [ 5 ] , NADH cytochrome c reductase [ 5 ] , succinate dehydrogenase [ 6 ] , succinate cytochrome c reductase [ 6 ] , cytochrome c oxidase [ 7 ] , and citrate synthase [ 8 ] . Enzyme activities were expressed as μmol/min/g of wet weight tissue.
Activation of the oxidase generates intralysosomal O 2 •-that is membrane impermeable, with a short life span and is converted to H 2 O 2 instantly by the consumption of protons (see (1)).
02-like proteins spans the entire length of the amino oxidase and contains the hallmark residues required to bind the FAD cofactor (Figure 3).
These include the glycine-rich loop bounded by a β-strand and an a helix that is typical of Rossmann fold nucleotide-binding proteins, a conserved glutamate specific to the amino oxidase family, that interacts with ribose in FAD and other residues of the substrate and cofactor-binding site.
Secondly, disruption of normal lysosomal pH by lysosomotropic weak bases inhibits the respiratory burst in neutrophils [ 12 ] . A normal transmembrane pH gradient in lysosomes is suggested to play an important role in assembling the NADPH oxidase complex during cell activation.
