Complete nucleotide sequence of cDNA and predicted amino acid sequence of rat acyl-CoA oxidase.
cDNA clones for rat acyl-CoA oxidase were isolated. The 3.8-kilobase mRNA sequence of the enzyme was completely covered by two overlapping clones. The composite cDNA sequence consisted of 3741 bases… Expand

Properties of mitochondria and peroxisomal enoyl-CoA hydratases from rat liver.
Mitochondrial and peroxisomal enoyl-CoA hydratases were purified from rat liver. The mitochondrial enzyme, with a molecular weight of 161,000, was composed of 6 identical subunits. The molecular… Expand

Biosynthesis and intracellular transport of enzymes of peroxisomal beta-oxidation.
Three peroxisomal enzymes of beta-oxidation from rat liver were synthesized in a cell-free protein-synthesizing system derived from a lysate of rabbit reticulocytes. The in vitro products of acyl-CoA… Expand

Copper uptake is required for pyrrolidine dithiocarbamate-mediated oxidation and protein level increase of p53 in cells.
The p53 tumour-suppressor protein is a transcription factor that activates the expression of genes involved in cell cycle arrest, apoptosis and DNA repair. The p53 protein is vulnerable to oxidation… Expand

Molecular cloning and nucleotide sequence of the cDNA for rat peroxisomal enoyl-CoA: hydratase-3-hydroxyacyl-CoA dehydrogenase bifunctional enzyme.
For the studies on the mechanism of induction of peroxisomal beta-oxidation enzymes and biogenesis of the organelle, we have isolated cDNA clones for rat peroxisomal enoyl-CoA:… Expand

Purification and properties of carnitine acetyltransferase from rat liver.
Carnitine acetyltransferase was purified from rat liver after induction of the enzyme by feeding with di(2-ethylhexyl)phthalate. Two enzyme sources were used: the mitochondrial fraction and the… Expand
