25. Degradation of the thiocarbamate herbicide EPTC (S-ethyl dipropylcarbamothioate) and biosafening by Rhodococcus sp. strain NI86/21 involve an inducible cytochrome P-450 system and aldehyde dehydrogenase.
Determination of the N-terminal sequences of two EPTC (S-ethyl dipropylcarbamothioate)-induced proteins from thiocarbamate-degrading Rhodococcus sp. strain NI86/21 resolved by two-dimensional electrophoresis enabled the localization of the respective structural genes on two distinct DNA fragments. One of these strongly induced proteins is a NAD(+)-dependent

26. Coenzyme A-acylating aldehyde dehydrogenase from Clostridium beijerinckii NRRL B592.
Acetaldehyde and butyraldehyde are substrates for alcohol dehydrogenase in the production of ethanol and 1-butanol by solvent-producing clostridia. A coenzyme A (CoA)-acylating aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH), which also converts acyl-CoA to aldehyde and CoA, has been purified under anaerobic conditions from Clostridium beijerinckii NRRL B592. The ALDH showed

27. Molybdenum Cofactor Mutants, Specifically Impaired in Xanthine Dehydrogenase Activity and Abscisic Acid Biosynthesis, Simultaneously Overexpress Nitrate Reductase.
The molybdenum cofactor is shared by nitrate reductase (NR), xanthine dehydrogenase (XDH), and abscisic acid (ABA) aldehyde oxidase in higher plants (M. Walker-Simmons, D.A. Kudrna, R.L. Warner [1989] Plant Physiol 90:728-733). In agreement with this, cnx mutants are simultaneously deficient for these three enzyme activities and have physiological characteri

28. Betaine aldehyde dehydrogenase in sorghum.
The ability to synthesize and accumulate glycine betaine is wide-spread among angiosperms and is thought to contribute to salt and drought tolerance. In plants glycine betaine is synthesized by the two-step oxidation of choline via the intermediate betaine aldehyde, catalyzed by choline monooxygenase and betaine aldehyde dehydrogenase (BADH). Two sorghum (So

29. The aldehyde dehydrogenase ALDH2*2 allele exhibits dominance over ALDH2*1 in transduced HeLa cells.
Individuals heterozygous or homozygous for the variant aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH2) allele (ALDH2*2), which encodes a protein differing only at residue 487 from the normal protein, have decreased ALDH2 activity in liver extracts and experience cutaneous flushing when they drink alcohol. The mechanisms by which this allele exerts its dominant effect is unkn

30. Purification and Characterization of the Coniferyl Aldehyde Dehydrogenase from Pseudomonas sp. Strain HR199 and Molecular Characterization of the Gene
The coniferyl aldehyde dehydrogenase (CALDH) of Pseudomonas sp. strain HR199 (DSM7063), which catalyzes the NAD+-dependent oxidation of coniferyl aldehyde to ferulic acid and which is induced during growth with eugenol as the carbon source, was purified and characterized. The native protein exhibited an apparent molecular mass of 86,000 ± 5,000 Da, and the

31. Metabolism of Phenol and Cresols by Mutants of Pseudomonas putida
Mutant strains of Pseudomonas putida strain U have been obtained which are deficient in enzymes of the degradative pathways of phenol and cresols. Mutant strains deficient in catechol 2, 3-oxygenase accumulated the appropriate catechol derivative from cresols. A mutant strain which would not grow on either phenol or a cresol was shown to be deficient in both

33. Assay, Purification, and Partial Characterization of Choline Monooxygenase from Spinach.
The osmoprotectant glycine betaine is synthesized via the path-way choline -> betaine aldehyde -> glycine betaine. In spinach (Spinacia oleracea), the first step is catalyzed by choline monooxygenase (CMO), and the second is catalyzed by betaine aldehyde dehydrogenase. Because betaine aldehyde is unstable and not easily detected, we developed a coupled radio

34. Biotransformation of Eugenol to Ferulic Acid by a Recombinant Strain of Ralstonia eutropha H16
The gene loci ehyAB, calA, and calB, encoding eugenol hydroxylase, coniferyl alcohol dehydrogenase, and coniferyl aldehyde dehydrogenase, respectively, which are involved in the first steps of eugenol catabolism in Pseudomonas sp. strain HR199, were amplified by PCR and combined to construct a catabolic gene cassette. This gene cassette was cloned in the new

35. NAD-linked aldehyde dehydrogenase for aerobic utilization of L-fucose and L-rhamnose by Escherichia coli.
Mutant analysis revealed that complete utilization of L-fucose and L-rhamnose by Escherichia coli requires the activity of a common NAD-linked aldehyde dehydrogenase which converts L-lactaldehyde to L-lactate. Mutations affecting this activity mapped to the ald locus at min 31, well apart from the fuc genes (min 60) encoding the trunk pathway for L-fucose di

36. Molecular cloning of the mitochondrial aldehyde dehydrogenase gene of Saccharomyces cerevisiae by genetic complementation.
Mutants of Saccharomyces cerevisiae deficient in mitochondrial aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH) activity were isolated by chemical mutagenesis with ethyl methanesulfonate. The mutants were selected by their inability to grow on ethanol as the sole carbon source. The ALDH mutants were distinguished from alcohol dehydrogenase mutants by an aldehyde indicator plat
