THE BIO QUIZ
A serious public health issue nowadays is the emergence of
drug resistant ‘superbugs’ which are resistant to all known
antibiotics. Several mechanisms are known to contribute to
this antibiotic resistance. One of them involves a certain
enzyme called NDM-1 which is responsible for the resistance
of Klebsiella pneumoniae, which is responsible for
carbapenem resistance. The enzyme NDM-1 was first
described in a Swedish man who fell ill after coming back
from his travels. The name was termed as ‘geographically
inaccurate’ as it was seen in organisms in Eastern Europe, as
well as in other locations in the initial country, a hotbed for
antibiotic resistance. If M-1 stands for
Metallobetalactamase-1, what does ND stand for?

Although several others have described this phenomenon
earlier, its discovery is attributed to a botanist who in 1827
was studying pollen grains of Clarkia pulchella suspended
in water under a microscope and observed minute
particles, ejected by the pollen grains, executing a jittery
movement. Who? (or) What phenomenon?

“Enzymes called alliinases break down amino acid
sulphoxides and generate sulphenic acids. A specific
sulfenic acid, 1-propenesulfenic acid is formed and is
rapidly rearranged by a second enzyme, called the LFS,
giving syn-propanethial-S-oxide, a volatile gas known as LF.
The LF gas diffuses through the air and activates sensory
neurons, creating a certain sensation.”
