On the Origin of Substrate Specificity of Enzymes from the Amidohydrolase Superfamily
Angewandte Chemie International Edition, Volume 65, Issue 4, 22 January 2026.Comprehensive analyses of two enzyme classes from the amidohydrolase superfamily (AHS) revealed that catalysis proceeds either via 1,4 or 1,6 nucleophilic conjugate addition and that this property defines substrate specificity. Moreover, although all substrates and products are entirely achiral, this mechanistic difference results in an inverted ...

Metabolic Origin, Role and Fate of the Denaturant Guanidine
Microbial Biotechnology, Volume 18, Issue 11, November 2025.The origin of metabolic guanidine is largely a mystery. We suggest it is created when guanine‐containing nucleotides are oxidised by molecular oxygen instead of being broken down into urea as purines normally would. Guanidine may act as a signal to help cells control the level of reactive oxygen species.

Crop Science, Volume 65, Issue 4, July/August 2025.Abstract The consumption of plant proteins is increasing worldwide as a viable alternative to animal‐derived proteins in the marketplace. The projected increase in global population to at least 10 billion by 2050 is placing greater pressure on the food supply, particularly due to the rising demand for large‐scale protein production.

A Thermostable Bacterial Metallohydrolase that Degrades Organophosphate Plasticizers
ChemBioChem, Volume 26, Issue 11, June 3, 2025.This bacterial enzyme, cyclase‐phosphotriesterase (C‐PTE) from Ruegeria pomeroyi DSS‐3, shows significant potential for breaking down organophosphate pollutants. Beyond its capability to hydrolyze specific plasticizers such as triphenyl phosphate and tris(2‐chloropropyl) phosphate, C‐PTE's crystal structure reveals a binuclear zinc active site, and it ...

GCB Bioenergy, Volume 16, Issue 10, October 2024.Pedigrees of the Salix F1 hybrid common parent (HCP) mapping populations. The Salix F1 HCP was comprised of two half‐sib families, both with a S. purpurea common parent and each consisting of four F1 families. Reciprocal crosses were made with male and female S. viminalis and S. suchowensis while S. integra, S. udensis, and S.

Advanced Science, Volume 11, Issue 32, August 27, 2024.The accuracy and applicability of routine preimplantation genetic testing (PGT) is confounded by uneven genome coverage and a high allele drop‐out rate from single‐cell whole genome amplification. This study proposes an alternative method to PGT by leveraging the abundant mRNA transcript copies present in trophectoderm cells to accurately diagnose ...
