Disease relevance of vitamin H

  • We demonstrate here that endodermal sinus tumour cells, but not other cell types isolated from testicular teratomas, secrete the serum attachment protein, vitronectin (also known as serum-spreading factor, S-protein or epibolin), as well as fibronectin, laminin and type IV collagen, into serum-free medium [1].
  • Because restoration of pimaricin production in the npi287 mutant is conferred by both A-factor and PI factor, S. natalensis appears to be able to integrate different quorum signals from actinomycetes [2].
  • Membranes containing permease with the biotin acceptor domain from the Klebsiella pneumoniae oxaloacetate decarboxylase are extracted with 5 M urea or treated with dicyclohexylcarbodiimide to inactivate F1/Fo ATPase and biotinylated in vitro with biotin ligase, ATP and d-biotin [3].
  • Rhodobacter sphaeroides f. sp. denitrificans biotin sulfoxide reductase (BSOR) catalyzes the reduction of d-biotin d-sulfoxide to biotin and contains the molybdopterin guanine dinucleotide (MGD) cofactor as its sole prosthetic group [4].
  • With the parameters (such as k1, k2, growth rate constant kG, critical concentration of HOCs in the organism resulting in growth inhibition CA* and spread factor S) the variability in toxicity (such as EC10, EC50, EC70) can be estimated from the combined bioconcentration and probability model, which fits well with the experimental observations [5].
 

Psychiatry related information on vitamin H

 

High impact information on vitamin H

  • According to a recently proposed theory for hindered diffusion through fibrous media, the diffusivity ratio is given by the product of a hydrodynamic factor (F) and a steric factor (S) [8].
  • It is now known that epibolin is identical to serum spreading factor, S protein, and vitronectin, and the current name for the protein is vitronectin [9].
  • Specular microscopy and computer-assisted morphometry was used to quantify central and peripheral endothelial cell density (ECD), coefficient of variation (COV) and the mean and standard deviation of the shape factor (S) over an 18-month period [10].
  • An efficient synthesis of a terminal alkyne derived from d-biotin was developed to provide an alternative for carboxyl-based biotinylation [11].
  • Extraction of sleep-promoting factor S from cerebrospinal fluid and from brains of sleep-deprived animals [12].
 

Biological context of vitamin H

 

Anatomical context of vitamin H

  • Sleep-promoting factor (factor S) was extracted, partially purified, and concentrated from cerebrospinal fluid and from acid-acetone extracts of brain stem anc cortex of sleep-deprived goats and sheep [12].
  • By pull-down assays we demonstrate that SA covalently bound to the ribosome binds d-biotin [16].
  • Two new non-BoLA antigens were also detected, one completely included within the red blood cell factor S' (BoLy-S'), whereas a second (BoLy-w1) did not show any association with tested red blood cell factors [17].
 

Gene context of vitamin H

  • In contrast, transcripts for Growth/ Differentiation factor-S (GDF-5) were induced during a cellular condensation, and those for BMP-6 were induced during the formation of cartilage nodules, and declined as the differentiated ATDC5 cells became hypertrophic, and BMP-7 transcripts were only detected after cells became calcified [18].
  • Biotin sulfoxide reductase catalyzes the conversion of d-biotin d-sulfoxide (BSO) to d-biotin [19].
  • The JAS was scored in the traditional manner, yielding scores for ambitiousness (factor A), impatience (factor S), competitiveness (factor H) and job involvement (factor J) [20].
  • As determined by Sephadex G-50 chromatography, only an 8-fold molar excess of d-biotin relative to labelled streptavidin was required to displace 90% of label in the case of EB1, whereas even a 20-fold molar excess provided no detectable displacement of DB2 [21].
  • At 25 days of incubation, eggs from Large White turkey hens in two field trials were injected with 87 micrograms of exogenous d-biotin per egg [22].
