  2. 2. Reconstitution of Membrane-Bound Enzymes for Neutron Scattering Studies: A Case Study of Human Dihydroorotate Dehydrogenase

    Author : Manuel Orozco; Molekylär cellbiologi; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; membrane proteins; dihydroorotate dehydrogenase; pyrimidine metabolism; neutron scattering; ubiquinone; QCM-D;

    Abstract : Membrane proteins are challenging to study due the necessity to maintain a lipid-like environment to preserve their structure and function. Particularly difficult to study are membrane-bound enzymes that interact with lipophilic substrates. READ MORE

    Abstract : Ubiquinones are a group of fat-soluble molecules present in many biological membranes. The most abundant version in humans, ubiquinone-10 (Q10), plays an important role in the mitochondrial respiration chain and also functions as a powerful antioxidant. Accumulating evidence suggests that Q10 also could have other functions in the membrane. READ MORE
