Pyocyanine biosynthesisPseudomonas aeruginosa
Pyocyanin biosynthesis involves a sequence of enzymatic activities that occur within the bacterial cell. The precursor molecule for pyocyanin production, chorismate, is produced from major metabolic pathways within the bacterial cell, such as phenylalanine, tyrosine, and tryptophan biosynthesis. These precursors are enzymatically transformed to pyocyanin by a sequence of processes facilitated by particular enzymes, including phenazine biosynthesis proteins (PhzE,D, and F). These enzymes promote the condensation, cyclization, and oxidation events essential for the synthesis of pyocyanin, which plays an important role in the virulence and pathogenicity.

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

Pyridostigmine Action PathwayHomo sapiens
Pyridostigmine is a cholinesterase inhibitor used for the treatment of myasthenia gravis. It is usually administered intravenously and is very similar to neostigmine but with a less adverse effect profile and longer duration of action. The autoimmune disease known as myasthenia gravis is characterized defect of acetylcholine interacting at the neuromuscular junction. This results in muscle weakness, muscle loss and overall fatigue. Pyridostigmine inhibits the breakdown of acetylcholine allowing for an increase in activation and relieving the aforementioned symptoms. It specifically targets and inhibits acetylcholinesterase and cholinesterase, this increases extracellular levels of acetylcholine. Pyridostigmine is administered orally or intravenously, the latter having a better bioavailability. It is hydrolyzed in the blood by cholinesterases and in the liver by microsomal enzymes in the liver. Its main metabolite is 3-hydroxy-N-methyl-pyridinium and eliminated through the urine.

Pyridoxine Dependency with SeizuresHomo sapiens
The condition pyridoxine dependent-epilepsy is a condition that sees seizures beginning in infancy. In some cases, the seizures begin before birth. The seizures involve status epilepticus, which are seizures that last several minutes. The symptoms specific to pyridoxine dependent seizures can include hypothermia, dystonia and irritability right before an episode. They also include loss of consciousness, convulsions, and muscle rigidity. Rarely does this condition manifest between 1 to 3 years of age, although it has occured. Traditional anticonvulsant medication has proven ineffective in patients with this condition; patients are instead treated with pyridoxine daily in large doses. This compound is a b-vitamin found in food. Encephalopathy can occur if this condition is not treated, which can result in permanent brain damage. Although this condition is treated with pyridoxine, it can still cause neurological issues, such as learning disorders or developmental delay, regardless of treatment.
