dioxygenaasireittejä
Dioxygenaasireittejä refers to metabolic pathways involving dioxygenase enzymes. Dioxygenases are a broad class of enzymes that catalyze the incorporation of both atoms of molecular oxygen (O2) into a substrate. These enzymes play crucial roles in various biological processes, including the degradation of aromatic compounds, the biosynthesis of important molecules like prostaglandins, and detoxification.
The term "dioxygenaasireittejä" highlights the series of enzymatic reactions that utilize dioxygenases. These pathways are particularly
In higher organisms, dioxygenases are involved in essential biosynthetic pathways. Catechol dioxygenases, for instance, initiate the
