University of Minnesota Biocatalysis/Biodegradation Database Progress Report 119 - June 17, 2004 Thank you for your interest in the UM-BBD. If you wish to be removed from this mailing list or change your options, send a message to: [log in to unmask] with the word 'help' in the subject or body (don't include the quotes), and you will get back an email message with instructions. - The pathway for Pivalic Acid (anaerobic) was added and the pathway for Perchlorate (anaerobic) has been updated. http://umbbd.ahc.umn.edu/pva/pva_map.html http://srs.ebi.ac.uk/srs6bin/cgi-bin/wgetz?-e+[upathway-id:'pva_map'] http://umbbd.ahc.umn.edu/pco/pco_map.html http://srs.ebi.ac.uk/srs6bin/cgi-bin/wgetz?-e+[upathway-id:'pco_map'] - The Pivalic Acid pathway was started by a student in the 2004 Biocatalysis and Biodegradation class, offered completely over the Internet. http://www.cbs.umn.edu/class/bioc/5309/idl/ - Links to the IntEnz Database at EBI have been added to all enzyme pages. A searchable list of enzymes is available. http://umbbd.ahc.umn.edu/servlets/pageservlet?ptype=allenzymes - All pathway pages have been examined, and narratives have been updated if needed. Pathways are aerobic unless otherwise specified. Pathways that are anaerobic, all or in part, can be found by searching pathway names for "anaerobic OR an/aerobic." A searchable list of all pathways is available. http://umbbd.ahc.umn.edu/servlets/pageservlet?ptype=allpathways - An About the Biochemical Periodic Tables web page has been created. It is linked to on the About BBD page and on the main Biochemical Periodic Tables page. http://umbbd.ahc.umn.edu/periodic/aboutperiodic.html http://umbbd.ahc.umn.edu/aboutBBD.html http://umbbd.ahc.umn.edu/periodic/ - On the Useful Internet Resources page, a link has been added for the IntEnz: Intergrated Enzyme Database at the EBI. http://umbbd.ahc.umn.edu/resources.html If you have comments on any aspect of the UM-BBD, please let us know.
