Christian Bohr. Discoverer of Homotropic and Heterotopic Allostery
Acta Physiologica, Volume 241, Issue S734, July 2025.ABSTRACT This essay recounts and revisits the scientific contributions of Christian Bohr, highlighting his pivotal role in discovering allostery about 120 years ago. Bohr's meticulous experimentation led to identifying two distinct forms of allostery: homotropic (single‐ligand) and heterotropic (multi‐ligand), the latter widely recognized as the Bohr ...

Abiogenesis: discussion on the origin and evolution of life [PDF]
, 2022 openL’abiogenesi è il presunto processo attraverso il quale la vita si è generata spontaneamente sulla Terra partendo da materiale non vivente.

Chemistry – A European Journal, Volume 31, Issue 29, May 22, 2025.APR‐A, an aggregation‐prone oligopeptide, can convert into APR‐B through distinct mutational pathways—some exclusively forming insoluble amyloid‐like peptides, others yielding water‐soluble, non‐aggregating monomers. These orthogonal pathways in chemical evolution may have driven macromolecular assembly under prebiotic Earth conditions, potentially ...

Factoring Origin of Life Hypotheses into the Search for Life in the Solar System and Beyond
Life, 2020 Two widely-cited alternative hypotheses propose geological localities and biochemical mechanisms for life’s origins. The first states that chemical energy available in submarine hydrothermal vents supported the formation of organic compounds and ...

Evaluation of antiobesogenic properties of fermented foods: In silico insights
Journal of Food Science, Volume 90, Issue 3, March 2025.Abstract Obesity prevalence has steadily increased over the past decades. Standard approaches, such as increased energy expenditure, lifestyle changes, a balanced diet, and the use of specific drugs, are the conventional strategies for preventing or treating the disease and its associated complications.

Step‐by‐Step Towards Biological Homochirality – from Prebiotic Randomness To Perfect Asymmetry
Chemistry – An Asian Journal, Volume 20, Issue 1, January 2, 2025.This review focuses on the theories related to the emergence of biological homochirality, from assembly of building blocks at the monomer level, to polymerization into functional homochiral biopolymers. Abstract The history of life's formation and the origin of its stereochemistry are nearly as multifaceted as the life itself.

Abiogenesis and the Second Law of Thermodynamics
, 2020 Abiogenesis, life arising from non-living matter, is reconsidered. A historic account is given from Darwin to the present with special consideration of the incipient relationship between quantum theory and life processes.

Abiogenesis not required to explain the origin of volcanic-hydrothermal hydrocarbons [PDF]
, 2019 Abiotic formation of n-alkane hydrocarbons has been postulated to occur within Earth's crust. Apparent evidence was primarily based on uncommon carbon and hydrogen isotope distribution patterns that set methane and its higher chain homologues apart from ...
