Journal ArticleDOI

Mutant tRNA His ineffective in repression and lacking two pseudouridine modifications

TL;DR: It is shown that repression of the histidine operon is correlated directly with the concentration of charged histidyl-tRNAHis in vivo and not with the ratio of charged to uncharged or the absolute amount of uncharged tRNAHis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Antioxidant status and indexes of oxidative stress during consecutive days of exercise.

TL;DR: Observed increases in GSH oxidation indicate the presence of oxidant stress during prolonged submaximal exercise and similar redox changes on consecutive days of exercise, with recovery to preexercise values within 15 min, indicate no evidence of persistent or cumulative exercise effects on blood glutathione redox status.
Journal ArticleDOI

γ-Tocopherol or combinations of vitamin E forms induce cell death in human prostate cancer cells by interrupting sphingolipid synthesis

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that gammaT and mixed vitamin E forms induce cell death by interrupting the de novo sphingolipid pathway in a prostate cancer cell line, which may be valuable as anticancer agents.
Journal ArticleDOI

Transport of antibiotics and metabolite analogs by systems under cyclic AMP control: positive selection of Salmonella typhimurium cya and crp mutants.

TL;DR: It is proposed that these antibiotics and analogs entering the bacteria through transport systems normally used for transporting fuel/carbon sources are accomplished because of a structural similarity between the antibiotic and the natural substrate of the particular transport system involved.
