A generalized approach for the calculation and automation of potentiometric titrations Part 2. Redox Titrations [PDF]
The very fast calculation procedure described earlier is applied to calculate the titration curves of complicated redox systems. The theory is extended slightly to cover inhomogeneous redox systems.

Structural insights into an engineered feruloyl esterase with improved MHET degrading properties
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.

The complex formation of the neodymium Nd3+ ion and the samarium Sm3+ ion with L-malic acid (H3Mal) in the aqueous solutions was studied by pH-metric titration in pH region 2.80 to 10.00 and constant ionic strength 0.1 M KCl at 25 °C.

A minimalist chemical model of matrix metalloproteinases- Can small peptides mimic the more rigid metal binding sites of proteins? [PDF]
In order to develop a minimalist chemical model of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs), we synthesized a pentadecapeptide (Ac-KAHEFGHSLGLDHSK-NH2) corresponding to the catalytic zinc(II) binding site of human MMP-13.

Gut microbiome and aging—A dynamic interplay of microbes, metabolites, and the immune system
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.

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.

Absorber design in sour natural gas treatment plants: Impact of process variables on operation and economics = Absorberentwurf für Anlagen zur Behandlung von sauren Erdgasen: Einfluss Prozessparameter auf Betriebsführung und Prozesswirtschaftlichkeit [PDF]
Two models of absorber have been developed which describe the absorption of H2S and CO2 from natural gases by aqueous di-isopropanolamine (DIPA) or methyl-di-ethanolamine (MDEA) solutions. In these models mass transfer, reaction and equilibrium processes

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

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