Cystathionine Gamma-lyase
The enzyme cystathionine γ-lyase (EC 4.4.1.1, CTH or CSE; also cystathionase; systematic name L-cystathionine cysteine-lyase (deaminating; 2-oxobutanoate-forming)) breaks down cystathionine into cysteine, 2-oxobutanoate ( α-ketobutyrate), and ammonia: :L-cystathionine + H2O = L-cysteine + 2-oxobutanoate + NH3 (overall reaction) ::(1a) L-cystathionine = L-cysteine + 2-aminobut-2-enoate ::(1b) 2-aminobut-2-enoate = 2-iminobutanoate (spontaneous) ::(1c) 2-iminobutanoate + H2O = 2-oxobutanoate + NH3 (spontaneous) Pyridoxal phosphate is a prosthetic group of this enzyme. Cystathionine γ-lyase also catalyses the following elimination reactions: * L-homoserine to form H2O, NH3 and 2-oxobutanoate * L-cystine, producing thiocysteine, pyruvate and NH3 * L-cysteine producing pyruvate, NH3 and H2S In some bacteria and mammals, including humans, this enzyme takes part in generating hydrogen sulfide. Hydrogen sulfide is one of a few gases that was recently discovered to have a role in ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Shaped Charge
A shaped charge is an explosive charge shaped to form an explosively formed penetrator (EFP) to focus the effect of the explosive's energy. Different types of shaped charges are used for various purposes such as cutting and forming metal, initiating nuclear weapons, penetrating armor, or perforating wells in the oil and gas industry. A typical modern shaped charge, with a metal liner on the charge cavity, can penetrate armor steel to a depth of seven or more times the diameter of the charge (charge diameters, CD), though greater depths of 10 CD and above have been achieved. Contrary to a misconception (possibly resulting from the acronym for ''high-explosive anti-tank'', HEAT) the shaped charge EFP jet does not depend in any way on heating or melting for its effectiveness; that is, the EFP jet from a shaped charge does not melt its way through armor, as its effect is purely kinetic in nature – however the process does create significant heat and often has a significant ...
