Discovery of Potent Inhibitors of Schistosoma mansoni NAD+ Catabolizing Enzyme
The blood fluke Schistosoma mansoni is the causative agent of the intestinal form of schistosomiasis (or bilharzia).
The blood fluke Schistosoma mansoni is the causative agent of the intestinal form of schistosomiasis (or bilharzia).
Bovine CD38/NAD+ glycohydrolase catalyzes the hydrolysis of NAD+ to nicotinamide and ADP-ribose and the formation of cyclic ADP-ribose via a stepwise reaction mechanism.
Schistosoma mansoni NAD+ catabolizing enzyme (SmNACE), a distant homolog of mammalian CD38, shows significant structural and functional analogy to the members of the …
Bovine CD38/NAD+glycohydrolase (bCD38) catalyses the hydrolysis of NAD+ into nicotinamide and ADP-ribose and the formation of cyclic ADP-ribose (cADPR).
CD38 is a multifunctional enzyme which is ubiquitously distributed in mammalian tissues.
Schistosomiasis is a major tropical parasitic disease.
Schistosoma mansoni NAD(P)+ catabolizing enzyme (SmNACE) is a new member of the ADP-ribosyl cyclase family.
ADP-ribosyl cyclases are structurally conserved enzymes that are best known for catalyzing the production of the calcium-mobilizing metabolite, cyclic adenosine diphosphate ribose …
