A personal 360° view of applications of ‘biomimetic’ molecular recognition

Journal of Chemical Technology &Biotechnology, Volume 101, Issue 7, Page 1300-1311, July 2026.
Abstract Molecular recognition between biological molecules has formed the basis for innumerable applications in biotechnology for the last seven decades or so. Techniques such as affinity chromatography, solid‐phase and aqueous two‐phase extraction, affinity precipitation, biomimetic catalytic systems, biosensors and molecular imprinting all exploit ...

Vitamin‐Responsive Disorders: From Molecular Basis to Clinical Presentation and Therapy

Journal of Inherited Metabolic Disease, Volume 49, Issue 4, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Vitamin‐dependent cofactors are essential for numerous metabolic reactions, and defects affecting their uptake, conversion, utilisation, or regeneration constitute a heterogeneous group of inherited metabolic disorders (IMDs). Although dietary vitamin intake is sufficient to sustain coenzyme synthesis in healthy individuals, it is insufficient

Proteomic Analysis of Lactococcus lactis FM03 Under Prolonged Alkaline Stress

Environmental Microbiology, Volume 28, Issue 7, July 2026.
Overview of alkaline resistance mechanisms in Lactococcus lactis FM03. Sustained growth at pH 8 triggers extensive physiological remodelling, including activation of general stress response proteins, suppression of acid resistance, elevated amino acid production, altered cell wall biosynthesis, and doubling of the cell wall thickness.

Carboxypeptidase U, a plasma carboxypeptidase with high affinity for plasminogen.

Journal of Biological Chemistry, 1994
A novel basic carboxypeptidase clearly different from carboxypeptidase N has been isolated from human plasma. It circulates as an enzymatically inactive precursor enzyme bound to plasminogen.

Degradomics for large‐scale mechanistic insights on proteases and proteolysis in human health

The FEBS Journal, Volume 293, Issue 13, Page 3881-3898, July 2026.
Proteolysis has an important role in human disease but remains relatively unexplored. Degradomics, the uncovering of proteolysis in tissues, cells, and proteins, uses mass spectrometry‐based terminomics to identify protein termini occurring therein (forward degradomics) and to define the actions of proteases (reverse degradomics).

Safety evaluation of an extension of use of the food enzyme carboxypeptidase D from the genetically modified Aspergillus oryzae strain NZYM‐MK

EFSA Journal, Volume 24, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract The food enzyme carboxypeptidase D (EC 3.4.16.6) is produced with the genetically modified Aspergillus oryzae strain NZYM‐MK by Novozymes A/S. The safety of this food enzyme was evaluated previously, and it did not give rise to safety concerns when used in five food manufacturing processes.

Plant Peptides on the Rise: From Historical Insight to Future Applications

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 6, Page 3777-3802, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Plant peptides constitute a rapidly expanding class of signalling molecules essential to plant physiology, mediating key processes such as development, stress adaptation, and immune responses. This review traces the history of plant peptide research, from the seminal discovery of systemin to the recent identification of non‐canonical peptides (

Loss of Striatal Bradykinin B2 Receptor Alters Anxiety and Motivational Behaviors in Male Mice

The FASEB Journal, Volume 40, Issue 10, 31 May 2026.
Impaired signaling of the bradykinin B2 receptor (B2R) in dorsal striatal neurons decreases anxiety‐like behavior and sucrose preference while enhancing voluntary running in mice. These results reveal a novel role for B2R in dopaminergic circuits that modulate motivation and emotional behavior.
