Original Source: HYPOXIC UPREGULATION OF ARGINASE II IN HUMAN LUNG ENDOTHELIAL CELLS.
Activated arginase has been implicated in many diseases including cancer, immune cell dysfunction, infections, and vascular disease. Enhanced arginase activity has been reported in lungs of patients with pulmonary artery hypertension. We used hypoxia as a model for pulmonary hypertension and studied the effect of exposure to hypoxia on arginase activity in human lung microvascular endothelial cells (HMVEC). Hypoxia induces upregulation of arginase activity as well as mRNA and protein levels of arginase II (...

Biotransformation of L-ornithine from L-arginine using whole-cell recombinant arginase.
A recombinant arginase was generated for a whole-cell biotransformation system to convert L-arginine to L-ornithine in Escherichia coli. The gene ARG1 coding arginase from Bos taurus liver was synthes...
Arginase is an enzyme which plays a role in pathophysiology such as hypertension. Here we demonstrated for the first time the direct implication of pressure and OH° radical formation on the arginase...
Binding of α,α-Disubstituted Amino Acids to Arginase Suggests New Avenues for Inhibitor Design.
Arginase is a binuclear manganese metalloenzyme that hydrolyzes l-arginine to form l-ornithine and urea, and aberrant arginase activity is implicated in various diseases such as erectile dysfunction,...
Increased arginase activity in the vasculature has been implicated in the regulation of nitric oxide (NO) homeostasis, leading to the development of vascular disease and the promotion of tumor cell gr...
A novel selectable marker based on Aspergillus niger arginase expression.
Selectable markers are valuable tools in transforming asexual fungi like Aspergillus niger. An arginase (agaA) expression vector and a suitable arginase-disrupted host would define a novel nutritional...
