Peptidyl-glycine alpha-amidating monooxygenase, or PAM, is an enzyme that catalyzes the conversion of an n+1 residue long peptide with a C-terminal glycine into an n-residue peptide with a terminal amide group. In the process, one molecule of O 2 is consumed and the glycine residue is removed from the peptide and converted to glyoxylic acid. [5]

The histone H2B family contains 214 members from many different and diverse species. In humans, histone H2B is coded for by twenty-three different genes, [11] none of which contain introns. [2] All of these genes are located in histone cluster 1 on chromosome 6 and cluster 2 and cluster 3 on chromosome 1.
In enzymology, an amidase (EC 3.5.1.4, acylamidase, acylase (misleading), amidohydrolase (ambiguous), deaminase (ambiguous), fatty acylamidase, N-acetylaminohydrolase (ambiguous)) is an enzyme that catalyzes the hydrolysis of an amide. In this way, the two substrates of this enzyme are an amide and H 2 O, whereas its two products are ...

Omega amidase catalyzes the deamidation of several different alpha-keto acids into ammonia and metabolically useful carboxylic acids [5] The general mechanism is the same as for other nitrilases: binding of the substrate to the active site, followed by release of ammonia, formation of a thioester intermediate at the cysteine, binding of water and then release of the carboxylic acid product.

In eukaryotes, the cell cycle consists of four main stages: G 1, during which a cell is metabolically active and continuously grows; S phase, during which DNA replication takes place; G 2, during which cell growth continues and the cell synthesizes various proteins in preparation for division; and the M phase, during which the duplicated ...
[2]: 939 In contrast mature sperm cells largely use protamines to package their genomic DNA, most likely because this allows them to achieve an even higher packaging ratio. [27] There are some variant forms in some of the major classes. They share amino acid sequence homology and core structural similarity to a specific class of major histones ...
