Frontiers in Molecular Biosciences, 2021 Aspartic acid, glutamic acid and histidine are ionizable residues occupying various protein environments and perform many different functions in structures. Their roles are tied to their acid/base equilibria, solvent exposure, and backbone conformations.

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.We identified a systemic, progressive loss of protein S‐glutathionylation—detected by nonreducing western blotting—alongside dysregulation of glutathione‐cycle enzymes in both neuronal and peripheral tissues of Taiwanese SMA mice. These alterations were partially rescued by SMN antisense oligonucleotide therapy, revealing persistent redox imbalance as ...

Protolytic Equilibria of Cetirizine in the Presence of Micelle-Forming Surfactants
OrganicsThe acid–base equilibria of cetirizine were investigated with and without the presence of differently charged micelle-forming surfactants (anionic, cationic, nonionic).

Complexation of 1-Hydroxyethylidene-1,1-Diphosphonic Acid (HEDP) and Manganese(II) in Aqueous Solution [PDF]
Учёные записки Казанского университета: Серия Естественные науки, 2016 Based on pH-potentiometric titration, it was found that the system Mn2+ – HEDP accumulates mono- and binuclear complexes of 1 : 1 and 2 : 2 composition, as well as mononuclear biscomplexes. Equilibrium and stability constants were obtained.

Structural insights into an engineered feruloyl esterase with improved MHET degrading properties
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.A feruloyl esterase was engineered to mimic key features of MHETase, enhancing the degradation of PET oligomers. Structural and computational analysis reveal how a point mutation stabilizes the active site and reshapes the binding cleft, expading substrate scope.

Protolytic equilibria in homogeneous and heterogeneous systems of ketoconazole and its direct spectrophotometric determination in tablets [PDF]
Journal of the Serbian Chemical Society, 2005 The acid-base equilibria of a diprotic, slightly hydrosoluble base ketoconazole were studied in homogeneous and heterogeneous water systems. The determinations were performed at 25 ºC at a constant ionic strength of 0.1M(NaCl).

Gut microbiome and aging—A dynamic interplay of microbes, metabolites, and the immune system
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Age‐dependent shifts in microbial communities engender shifts in microbial metabolite profiles. These in turn drive shifts in barrier surface permeability of the gut and brain and induce immune activation. When paired with preexisting age‐related chronic inflammation this increases the risk of neuroinflammation and neurodegenerative diseases.

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.This study reveals a unique active site enriched in methionine residues and demonstrates that these residues play a critical role by stabilizing carbocation intermediates through novel sulfur–cation interactions. Structure‐guided mutagenesis further revealed variants with significantly altered product profiles, enhancing pseudopterosin formation. These

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.We show that the majority of the 18 analyzed recurrent cancer‐associated ERBB4 mutations are transforming. The most potent mutations are activating, co‐operate with other ERBB receptors, and are sensitive to pan‐ERBB inhibitors. Activating ERBB4 mutations also promote therapy resistance in EGFR‐mutant lung cancer.
