Application

L-Tyrosine decarboxylase from Streptococcus faecalis has been used in a study to isolate and identify the carbonyl-active site of diamine oxidase by gas chromatographic mass spectrometry. [1] L-Tyrosine decarboxylase from Streptococcus faecalis has also been used in a study to investigate the adsorption of Streptococcus faecalis on diatomite carriers for use in biotransformations.

    Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic inflammatory disease in which fibroblast-like synoviocytes (FLS) exhibit an aggressive phenotype. Although the mechanisms responsible are not well defined, epigenetic determinants such as DNA methylation might contribute. DNA methyltransferases (DNMTs) are critical enzymes that

    DNA methylation is an epigenetic modification that plays an important role in the normal development and function of organisms. The level of DNA methylation is species-, tissue-, and organelle-specific, and the methylation pattern is determined during embryogenesis. DNA methylation has

    The overall degree of methylation of a genome can be a useful measure of global regulatory changes. Measurement of this parameter is usually performed after complete digestion to the single base and then analyzed using HPLC or mass spectrophotometry. The Global DNA Modification Kit (MDQ1), allows the researcher to monitor DNA methylation using a format similar to a sandwich ELISA assay.
