Investigating a novel protein-based cofactor: toward elucidating the catalase mechanism of Mycobacterium tuberculosis KatG
Aziz, Tarfi (2022-12-07)
Catalase-peroxidases (KatGs) have been engineered by nature to exhibit dual functionalism, degrading H2O2 by catalase and peroxidase mechanisms. This serves to protect the organisms that carry it (primarily bacteria and ...
Iron-Sulfur Cluster-Containing Enzymes Involved in Isoprenoid Biosynthesis and Electron Bifurcation
Ghebreamlak, Selamawit (2016-05-05)
Iron-sulfur-cluster-containing proteins are present in all living organisms. They are involved in a wide array of biological processes such as electron transfer, substrate binding and activation, regulation of enzyme ...
The Modification and Role of a Methyl-Arginine Post-Translational Modification in the Active Site of the Enzyme Methyl-Coenzyme M Reductase
Clohan Gasaway, Katherine (2022-12-02) ETD File Embargoed
The enzyme methyl-coenzyme M reductase (Mcr) is used in methanogenic archaea to produce methane and in anaerobic methanotrophs to oxidize methane. A significant portion of the methane produced by methanogens is released ...
Redox Reactions in Polymeric Systems
Black, James (2011-05-06)
Reduction-Oxidization (redox) reactions performed in polymeric environments resulted in the reversible formation of stable silver nanoparticle and two reductive radicals. The reversible formation of stable silver nanoparticles ...
A Story About Light and Energy: Mechanistic and Biosynthetic Investigations of Bioluminescence and Methanogenesis
Ngo, Phong (2016-12-12)
This dissertation seeks to investigate underexplored aspects of dinoflagellate bioluminescence and biological methane production.
Ubiquitous in the four oceans, dinoflagellate bioluminescence is a consequence of an ...
A Study of Methyl-coenzyme M Reductase Maturation: Coenzyme F430 Biosynthesis and Post-translational Modifications
Zheng, Kaiyuan (2018-10-03)
This dissertation seeks to investigate the coenzyme F430 biosynthetic pathway and post-translational modification (PTM) enzymes of methyl-coenzyme M reductase (MCR), which will have applications in natural gas-to-liquid ...
The Synthesis and Practical Applications of Novel N-Halamine Biocides
Barnes, Paul (2006-12-15)
A novel set of N-halamine siloxane precursors were synthesized for the purpose of coating various substrates to determine the factors, which are the most dominant influences of the overall stability of the newly modified ...
