Disease relevance of icdA

  • Mutagenesis target sites were based on crystal structures of metal-isocitrate complexes of Escherichia coli and pig mitochondrial NADP-IDH and sequence alignments [1].
  • Lambdoid phage 21 inserts within the isocitrate dehydrogenase gene and introduces an alternative 165 bp 3' end for that gene [2].
 

High impact information on icdA

 

Biological context of icdA

  • Moreover, the main metabolic pathways and carbon flow operating during cell biotransformation was that controlled by the ICDH/ICL ratio, which decreased from 8.0 to 2.5, and the phosphotransferase/ACS ratio, which increased from 2.1 to 5.2, after a NaCl pulse fivefold the steady-state level [6].
 

Analytical, diagnostic and therapeutic context of icdA

  • Two structurally different monomeric and dimeric types of isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH; EC 1.1.1.42) isozymes were confirmed to exist in a psychrophilic bacterium, Colwellia psychrerythraea, by Western blot analysis and the genes encoding them were cloned and sequenced [7].
  • Thr(373), Lys(374), Asp(375), and Lys(260) were chosen as site-directed mutagenesis targets within porcine NADP-dependent isocitrate dehydrogenase based on structurally corrected sequence alignment among prokaryotic and eukaryotic NADP-isocitrate dehydrogenases [4].
