Yevenes A
Subcell Biochem . 2017 Mar; 83:75-102. PMID: 28271473
Iron is very important in many biological processes and the ferritin protein family has evolved to store iron and to maintain cellular iron homeostasis. The deletion of the coding gene...

Arenas-Salinas M, Townsend P, Brito C, Marquez V, Marabolli V, Gonzalez-Nilo F, et al.
Biochimie . 2014 Aug; 106:39-47. PMID: 25079050
Ferritins are ubiquitous iron-storage proteins found in all kingdoms of life. They share a common architecture made of 24 subunits of five α-helices. The recombinant Chlorobium tepidum ferritin (rCtFtn) is...

Brito C, Matias C, Gonzalez-Nilo F, Watt R, Yevenes A
Protein J . 2014 Mar; 33(3):211-20. PMID: 24609571
The recombinant Chlorobium tepidum ferritin (rCtFtn) is able to oxidize iron using ferroxidase activity but its ferroxidase activity is intermediate between the H-chain human ferritin and the L-chain human ferritin....

Gonzalez-Nilo F, Perez-Acle T, Guinez-Molinos S, Geraldo D, Sandoval C, Yevenes A, et al.
Biol Res . 2011 Jul; 44(1):43-51. PMID: 21720680
After the progress made during the genomics era, bioinformatics was tasked with supporting the flow of information generated by nanobiotechnology efforts. This challenge requires adapting classical bioinformatic and computational chemistry...

Yevenes A, Frey P
Bioorg Chem . 2008 Apr; 36(3):121-7. PMID: 18430452
The genes xpk1 and xpk2(Delta1-21) encoding phosphoketolase-1 and (Delta1-7)-truncated phosphoketolase-2 have been cloned from Lactobacillus plantarum and expressed in Escherichia coli. Both gene-products display phosphoketolase activity on fructose-6-phosphate in extracts....

Yevenes A, Gonzalez-Nilo F, Cardemil E
Protein J . 2007 Jan; 26(2):135-41. PMID: 17195942
Saccharomyces cerevisiae phosphoenolpyruvate (PEP) carboxykinase catalyzes the reversible formation of oxaloacetate and adenosine triphosphate from PEP, adenosine diphosphate and carbon dioxide, and uses Mn(2+) as the activating metal ion. Comparison...

Biochim Biophys Acta . 2002 Dec; 1599(1-2):65-71. PMID: 12479406
The crystal structure of Escherichia coli phosphoenolpyruvate (PEP) carboxykinase shows Lys213 is one of the ligands of enzyme-bound Mn2+ [Nat. Struct. Biol. 4 (1997) 990]. The direct coordination of Mn2+...
