Disease relevance of CD-I

  • When Arthrobacter sp. BA-5-17 was grown on benzamide, the bacterium synthesized four different catechol 1,2-dioxygenase (CD, EC 1.13.11.1) isozymes (CD-I, II, III-1, and III-2) [1].
 

High impact information on CD-I

  • Our findings suggest a model in which the two conserved regions of the catalytic domain, CD I and CD II, contribute to the formation of a UDP-GlcNAc-binding pocket that catalyzes the transfer of O-GlcNAc to substrate proteins [2].
  • OBJECTIVES: Thus, in the present study, we assessed a possible role for noradrenaline in the behavioural response to the non-competitive NMDA receptor anatgonist, MK-801, in male CD-I mice [3].
  • CONCLUSIONS: In conclusion, from the present research, it is evident that NMDA glutamate and nicotinic acetylcholine receptor systems interact in modulating memory consolidation in CD I mice [4].
  • The catA genes catA1 and catA2 encoding CD I and CD II, respectively, were cloned from a gene library of this bacterium [5].
  • The aniline-assimilating bacterium Frateuria species ANA-18 produced two catechol 1,2-dioxygenases, CD I and CD II, and two muconate cycloisomerases, MC I and MC II [5].
 

Biological context of CD-I

  • MATERIALS AND METHODS: ICR (CD-I) mice were injected subcutaneously with Methylene blue at 0 (vehicle), 5, 30, 50, 60 or 85 mg/Kg on gestation days 15.5 and 16 (plug day = gestation day 0) [6].
 

Anatomical context of CD-I

  • Specimens were obtained from 3 days-old CD-I mice and mandibles were carefully dissected under constant irrigation and immediately fixed in 10% neutral buffered formalin for light microscopy [7].
 

Associations of CD-I with chemical compounds

  • Low-dose, chronic administration of the synthetic glucocorticoid, dexamethasone, to male CD-I rats in the drinking water or by osmotic minipumps implanted subcutaneously after supralethal irradiation of the kidneys (20 Gy) was studied [8].
  • Calcitriol inhibited (80-90%) IL-I induced CD-I mouse thymocyte proliferation, whereas 25-OH-D3 was ineffective [9].
 

Gene context of CD-I

  • The spf GS activity remained constant from 28 to 56 days, whereas the CD-I GS activity decreased [10].
  • To avoid the use of lectins, thymocytes from CD-I Swiss mice were chosen, which proliferate in response to Interleukin-I (IL-I) or IL-2 without the addition of lectins [9].
