Oxidative ... development.HA-induced oxidativestress activates PARP within5 min (Fig. 4A,B), and its role during oxidative stress is further confirmed by the use of low concentrations of benzamide.

Therefore, M97 and K97 are equallyeffective in stabilizing ... toE187, in order to minimize unfavourable interactions withthe apolar side chain of F331. Thus, the increment in thepKa of E399, in addition to it being closer to E187, mayhave resulted in a...
