Merging Biocatalysis and Chemocatalysis in Flow: State‐of‐the‐Art and Future Directions for Sustainable Synthesis

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
This review highlights recent advances in integrating biocatalysis and chemocatalysis in continuous flow to create streamlined, sustainable processes. It examines chemo‐enzymatic cascades combining at least one enzymatic and one chemical step, discusses challenges such as enzyme immobilization, leaching, and reactor clogging, and presents solutions ...

Properties of the thioredoxin fold superfamily are modulated by a single amino acid residue [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The ubiquitous thioredoxin fold proteins catalyze oxidation, reduction, or disulfide exchange reactions depending on their redox properties. They also play vital roles in protein folding, redox control, and disease.

Biophysical characterization of Cyclophilin B reveals membrane localization as its primary functional determinant as a prolyl isomerase. [PDF]

open access: yesProtein Sci
Abstract The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) provides a specialized environment for the folding of secreted and membrane proteins, a process supported by many different chaperones. Among these chaperones, peptidyl‐prolyl cis/trans isomerases (PPIases) catalyze a rate‐limiting conformational step in protein folding, yet the principles governing isoform ...

Studies on the subunit structure and amino acid sequence of triose phosphate isomerase from chicken breast muscle [PDF]

open access: yesBiochemical Journal, 1974
1. Triose phosphate isomerase was prepared by chromatography on DEAE-cellulose of an (NH4)2SO4 fraction of an extract of homogenized chicken breast muscle. The product is homogeneous on gel electrophoresis and is suitable for growing crystals for X-ray work. The specific activity is 10000 units/mg and the value for E0.1%280 is 1.20. 2.

A single amino acid substitution in the FAD-binding domain causes the inactivation of Propionibacterium Acnes isomerase [PDF]

open access: yesBioscience, Biotechnology, and Biochemistry, 2020
ABSTRACT We previously demonstrated the efficient production of trans 10, cis 12-conjugated linoleic acid (t10c12-CLA) in Lactococcus lactis by ectopically expressing a Propionibacterium acnes isomerase (pai) gene and also mentioned that a recombinant strain was unable to accumulate t10c12-CLA product, despite the normal transcription ...

Divergent roles of CprK paralogues from Desulfitobacterium hafniense in activating gene expression [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Gene duplication and horizontal gene transfer play an important role in the evolution of prokaryotic genomes. We have investigated the role of three CprK paralogues from the cAMP receptor protein-fumarate and nitrate reduction regulator (CRP-FNR) family ...
