Tuning adsorption and morphology in poly(glutamic acid) via controlled acidic partial deprotection

open access: yesPolymer International, Volume 75, Issue 6, Page 490-497, June 2026.
Partial deprotection of poly(glutamic acid) generates morphologies and assemblies that match fully deprotected polypeptides in small‐molecule adsorption, extending to block copolypeptides with pH‐dependent effects. Abstract Synthetic polypeptides prepared from N‐carboxyanhydride (NCA) monomers are important platforms for environmental and medical ...

Functional dynamics of water in New Delhi metallo‐β‐lactamase catalysis

open access: yesProtein Science, Volume 35, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract Water plays a critical role in the hydrolysis of antibiotics by New Delhi metallo‐β‐lactamases (NDMs). The reaction proceeds through a nucleophilic attack on the β‐lactam ring, followed by cleavage of the C–N bond and formation of an anionic nitrogen intermediate. This intermediate is then protonated by a water molecule diffusing from the bulk

Unimolecular GLP‐1/Apelin Hybrid Peptides Cause Prominent Appetite Suppression, as Well as Enhancing Insulin Secretion, Beta‐Cell Survival and Glycaemic Regulation

open access: yesDiabetes, Obesity and Metabolism, Volume 28, Issue 6, Page 4706-4717, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim To characterise the metabolic benefits of a GLP‐1/apelin hybrid peptide, namely exendin‐4‐linker‐apelin (ELA), and associated acylated forms, including ELA‐Lys12(γGluPal), ELA‐Lys27(γGluPal) and ELA‐Lys38(γGluPal). Methods Concentration‐ and receptor‐dependent effects of the peptides on insulin secretion and beta‐cell turnover were ...

Intermolecular Electrophilic Germylation Using GeCl4 and Al2Cl6

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, Volume 138, Issue 22, 25 May 2026.
While electrophilic aromatic substitution is well‐established for carbon and silicon‐based electrophiles, it is extremely underdeveloped for germanium. Herein we report the first effective intermolecular Germa–Friedel–Crafts reaction. The process can be modified to enable selective synthesis of the mono‐ or the di‐aryl germane derivatives, ArGeCl3 and ...

VqLecRKV.4 and VqBAK1 Modulate Grapevine Resistance to Powdery Mildew by Regulating Dynamic Balance of ROS

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 6, Page 3691-3707, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Grapevine powdery mildew, caused by the fungal pathogen Erysiphe necator, severely impacts plant growth and berry quality. However, the grapevine receptors and molecular mechanisms underlying grapevine resistance to E. necator remain poorly understood.

The BAHD Acyltransferase Gene Family: Evolutionary Dynamics, Biochemical Mechanisms, and Roles in Plant Stress Adaptation

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 6, Page 4139-4158, June 2026.
BAHD acyltransferases drive metabolic diversification in plants by coupling conserved catalytic scaffolds with regulatory flexibility, enabling stress adaptation and ecological specialisation. ABSTRACT BAHD acyltransferases constitute one of the most versatile enzyme superfamilies in plants, catalysing the acylation of alcohols, amines, polyamines, and

Natural Variations in the Activity of Hydroxycinnamoyl Transferases Promote Accumulation of Metabolites Conferring Rice Resistance

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 6, Page 3803-3820, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Plant‐derived secondary metabolites act as regulators of in planta defence. Plant phenylpropanoid metabolic compounds, including final metabolites such as lignin and flavonoids, and a few intermediate metabolites play critical roles in defence.
