Acetylation and Deacetylation of RelA in The Nucleus

Homo sapiens
NF-kB transcription factor plays a role in the inflammatory and immune response of mammals. Acetylation of RelA regulates NF-kB activity. Tumor necrosis factor activates tumor necrosis factor receptor, recruiting proteins FADD, TRADD, RIP and TRAF6 to activate the NF-kB pathway. Activation of IKK complex causes the phosphorylation of I-kappa-B-alpha and triggers its degradation. I-kappa-B-alpha normally sequesters KF-kB in the cytoplasm, following its degradation, RELA and p50 (subunits of NF-kB) are liberated can translocate to the nucleus to activate gene expression. RelA and p50 associate with p300 and CREB transcriptional co-activators causing the acetylation of RelA and increase in transcriptional activity. Acetylated RelaA is targeted for deacetylation by transcriptional co-repressor Histone deacetylation 3 (HDAC3). This promotes its binding to I-kappa-B-alpha causing NF-kB's transport out of the nucleus and reduces its activity.

Acetyl sulfisoxazole Drug Metabolism

Homo sapiens
Acetyl sulfisoxazole is a drug that is not metabolized by the human body as determined by current research and biotransformer analysis. Acetyl sulfisoxazole passes through the liver and is then excreted from the body mainly through the kidney.

Acetyl sulfisoxazole Action Pathway

Escherichia coli (strain K12)
Acetyl sulfisoxazole is an antibacterial from the sulfanilamide drug class. It is a broad-spectrum antibiotic indicated against urinary tract infections, meningococcal meningitis, acute otitis media, inclusion conjunctivitis, toxoplasmosis, and many others. Acetyl sulfisoxazole is a synthetic bacteriostatic, meaning that it stops the bacteria from growing. This drug binds competitively to the dihydropteroate synthase enzyme. This enzyme is essential to produce dihydrofolic acid in bacteria, when it is inhibited, the bacteria cannot grow anymore because they cannot produce DNA with the folic acid. Thus drug is administered as an oral tablet. N1-acetyl sulfisoxazole is metabolized to sulfisoxazole by digestive enzymes in the gastrointestinal tract and is absorbed as sulfisoxazole (the active compound).

Acetonitrile Metabolism

Homo sapiens
Methyl cyanide (acetonitrile) is metabolized to citrate, succinate, fumarate, malate, glutamate, pyrrolidonecarboxylic acid and aspartate. Non-radioactive acetamide and acetate compete with 14C from methyl cyanide, and [2-14C]acetate and [2-14C]methyl cyanide are metabolized at similar rates, giving identical products. This evidence, combined with the inhibitory effect of fluoroacetate and arsenite on methyl cyanide metabolism, indicates that the pathway is: methyl cyanide leads to acetamide leads to acetate leads to tricarboxylic acid-cycle intermediates. The pathway was investigated in a species of Pseudomonas (group III; N.C.I.B. 10477), but comparison of labelling patterns suggests that it also exists in several higher plants.
