JPMA. The Journal of the Pakistan Medical Association, 2014 Alpha glucosidase inhibitors (AGIs) are a unique class of anti-diabetic drugs. Derived from bacteria, these oral drugs are enzyme inhibitors which do not have a pancreato -centred mechanism of action. Working to delay carbohydrate absorption in the gastrointestinal tract, they control postprandial hyperglycaemia and provide unquestioned cardiovascular ...

Microbiology Research, 2013 In the present study, effect of catanospermine (CST), 1-deoxynojirimycin (DNJ) or 1-deoxymannojirimycin (DMJ) was studied on porcine stable kidney (PS) cells infected with Japanese encephalitis virus (JEV). As both CST and DNJ are potent inhibitors of ER

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.An efficient radiosynthesis of fluorine‐18 labeled gluconic acid ([18F]FGA) was developed using two readily available materials, 2‐deoxy‐2‐[18F]fluoro‐D‐glucose ([18F]FDG) and glucose oxidase. [18F]FGA is highly specific for bacterial gluconate metabolism mediated by gluconate permease (GntP) and gluconate kinase (GntK), with rapid clearance, low off ...

A minimal cellulosome‐like system in Cellulosilyticum lentocellum
FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.Cellulose‐degrading bacteria typically use cellulosomes, large multi‐enzyme complexes on a scaffold protein. In Cellulosilyticum lentocellum, we characterise a far smaller arrangement, a single scaffold bound to one cellulase through a single cohesin‐dockerin interaction.

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.A 310‐helix‐mediated conformational switch promotes a front‐face SNi‐like catalysis by human A4GALT. Mechanism‐guided design identifies AdaGalCer as a selective modulator of globotriaosylceramide (Gb3) biosynthesis, opening a clear route toward new Fabry disease therapeutics.

Enzyme-assisted extraction of leaf proteins: efficiency, functionality, and structural insights
Food Chemistry: XLeaf proteins are gaining popularity for their balanced amino acid composition and reduced environmental impact. Enzyme-assisted extraction (EAE) employs enzymes such as proteases, xylanases, β-glucosidases, pectinases, and alpha-amylases to degrade ...

SuFEx‐Enabled Reprogramming of Flavonoids for Selective α‐Glucosidase Covalent Inhibition
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Selective inhibition of intestinal α‐glucosidase remains limited by poor enzyme specificity and off‐target metabolic effects. Here, SuFEx click chemistry is used to reprogram natural flavonoids into covalent inhibitors with enhanced α‐glucosidase selectivity and controlled reactivity. This strategy enables effective regulation of carbohydrate digestion

High Tree Species Diversity Promotes Thermal Enhancement Response of Microbial Carbon Use Efficiency
Advanced Science, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Predicting soil carbon dynamics under warming is constrained by limited understanding of microbial thermal adaptation, particularly whether microbial carbon use efficiency (CUE) can adapt to warming and how plant diversity modulates this response. Using soils from a natural tree species diversity gradient in a subtropical forest, we combined a

Advanced Science, EarlyView.Liberation of ferulic acid by gut microbial feruloyl esterase mediates cognitive enhancement of germinated quinoa (GQF) on obese mice. Ferulic acid enriched in GQF is released by gut microbes Roseburia hominis and R. intestinalis and subsequently mediates the neuroprotective effects of GQF on obesity‐induced cognitive decline by activating hippocampal ...
