The Toxoplasma gondii deoxyribose phosphate aldolase-like (TgDPA) gene is expressed predominantly in bradyzoites. This finding allowed us to infer that TgDPA is important in the tachyzoite-to-bradyzoite development or maintenance of cyst structure although the function of this gene is still

Toxoplasma gondii undergoes stage conversion from tachyzoites to bradyzoites in intermediate hosts. There have been many reports on bradyzoite-specific genes which are thought to be involved in stage conversion. Here, we described a novel T. gondii deoxyribose phosphate aldolase-like gene

A novel deoC gene was identified from Paenibacillus sp. EA001 isolated from soil. The gene had an open reading frame (ORF) of 663 base pairs encoding 220 amino acids with a molecular mass of 24.5 kDa. The amino acid sequence

Selenium can be metabolized for protein synthesis by two major pathways in vivo. In a specific pathway it can be inserted into polypeptide chains as the amino acid selenocysteine, as directed by the UGA codon. Alternatively, selenium can be substituted

2-Deoxyribose 5-phosphate production through coupling of the alcoholic fermentation system of baker's yeast and deoxyriboaldolase-expressing Escherichia coli was investigated. In this process, baker's yeast generates fructose 1,6-diphosphate from glucose and inorganic phosphate, and then the E. coli convert the fructose
