  2. Cellobiose - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cellobiose

    Cellobiose is a disaccharide with the formula (C 6 H 7 (OH) 4 O) 2 O. It is classified as a reducing sugar - any sugar that possesses the ability or function of a reducing agent. The chemical structure of cellobiose is derived from the condensation of a pair of β-glucose molecules forming a β(1→4) bond. It can be hydrolyzed to glucose ...

  3. Rifampicin - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rifampicin

    In August 2020, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) became aware of nitrosamine impurities in certain samples of rifampin. [61] The FDA and manufacturers are investigating the origin of these impurities in rifampin, and the agency is developing testing methods for regulators and industry to detect the 1-methyl-4-nitrosopiperazine (MNP ...

  4. Rifamycin - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rifamycin

    Rifampin rapidly kills fast-dividing bacilli strains as well as "persisters" cells, which remain biologically inactive for long periods of time that allow them to evade antibiotic activity. [7] In addition, rifabutin and rifapentine have both been used against tuberculosis acquired in HIV-positive patients.

  5. Cellobiose phosphorylase - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cellobiose_phosphorylase

    In enzymology, a cellobiose phosphorylase (EC 2.4.1.20) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction. cellobiose + phosphate alpha-D-glucose 1-phosphate + D-glucose. Thus, the two substrates of this enzyme are cellobiose and phosphate, whereas its two products are alpha-D-glucose 1-phosphate and D-glucose.

  6. Cellobiose dehydrogenase (acceptor) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cellobiose_dehydrogenase...

    Thus, the two substrates of this enzyme are cellobiose and acceptor, whereas its two products are cellobiono-1,5-lactone and reduced acceptor. This enzyme belongs to the family of oxidoreductases, to be specific those acting on the CH-OH group of donor with other acceptors. The systematic name of this enzyme class is cellobiose:acceptor 1 ...

  7. Cellobiose epimerase - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cellobiose_epimerase

    In enzymology a cellobiose epimerase (EC 5.1.3.11) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction cellobiose ⇌ {\displaystyle \rightleftharpoons } D-glucosyl-D-mannose Hence, this enzyme has one substrate , cellobiose , and one product , D-glucosyl-D-mannose .

  8. rpoB - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RpoB

    In a bacterium without the proper mutation(s) in rpoB rifampicin binds to a site near the fork in the β subunit and prevents the polymerase from transcribing more than two or three base pairs of any RNA sequence and stopping production of proteins within the cell.
