Control Strategies in Guanine Biocrystallization
Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.Biological guanine crystals produce spectacular photonic phenomena in animals and hold great promise as new, sustainable optical materials. We review how organisms precisely control the structure, morphologies, and resulting optical properties of these crystals using a set of ingenious ‘design’ strategies, including control of pH, template‐directed ...

PACT - Prediction of amyloid cross-interaction by threading
Scientific Reports, 2023 Amyloid proteins are often associated with the onset of diseases, including Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s and many others. However, there is a wide class of functional amyloids that are involved in physiological functions, e.g., formation of microbial ...

Advanced Science, EarlyView.This study reveals that Urolithin A (UA) counteracts alcohol‐induced cognitive and social dysfunction (AICSD) via a gut microbiome‐dependent mechanism. UA‐enriched Bacteroids sartorii and Parabacteroids distasonis elevate anandamide (AEA), which activates the CB1R‐DRD2‐Rap1 signaling cascade to drive synaptic repair and reduce neuroinflammation ...

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.This study explores the origins of life by linking prebiotic chemistry, the emergence of information‐carrying molecules such as RNA and proteins, and philosophical questions about consciousness. The study emphasizes the role of molecular evolution in the Central Dogma and provides insights into the chemical origins of biology and the basis of life's ...

The broad‐spectrum antibiofilm activity of amyloid‐forming hexapeptides
Microbial Biotechnology, 2021 Summary Evidence suggests that short amyloid‐forming peptides derived from bacterial proteomes have functional roles; however, the reported activities are diverse and the underlying mechanisms remain unclear.
