Enzymatic degradation of biopolymers in amorphous and molten states: mechanisms and applications
FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.This review explains how polymer morphology and thermal state shape enzymatic degradation pathways, comparing amorphous and molten biopolymer structures. By integrating structure–reactivity principles with insights from thermodynamics and enzyme engineering, it highlights mechanisms that enable efficient polymer breakdown.

Meta‐analysis fails to show any correlation between protein abundance and ubiquitination changes
FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.We analyzed over 50 published proteomics datasets to explore the relationship between protein levels and ubiquitination changes across multiple experimental conditions and biological systems. Although ubiquitination is often associated with protein degradation, our analysis shows that changes in ubiquitination do not globally correlate with changes in ...
