The planar cell polarity protein Vangl2 interacts with the PDZ‐domains of Scribble but not with a unique PDZ‐like domain in Inturned

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Structural and biochemical characterisations show that the planar cell polarity (PCP) protein Inturned harbours a unique PDZ‐like domain that does not bind canonical PDZ‐binding motifs (PBMs) like that of another PCP protein Vangl2. In contrast, the apical‐basal polarity protein Scribble contains four PDZ domains that bind Vangl2, but one PDZ domain ...

Structural insights into an engineered feruloyl esterase with improved MHET degrading properties

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
A feruloyl esterase was engineered to mimic key features of MHETase, enhancing the degradation of PET oligomers. Structural and computational analysis reveal how a point mutation stabilizes the active site and reshapes the binding cleft, expading substrate scope.

Bio‐Based Aliphatic Polyurethanes Through ADMET Polymerization in Bulk and Green Solvent [PDF]

Macromolecular Rapid Communications, 2013
A new route to α,ω‐diene urethane monomer is proposed by converting 10‐undecenoic acid into the corresponding acyl azide, followed by urethanization with 10‐undecenol. ADMET polymerizations of this α,ω‐diene urethane monomer as well as other bio‐based α,ω‐dienes bearing various organic functions (ester, carbonate, ether, amide) were carried out in bulk

Diversity and complexity in neural organoids

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Neural organoid research aims to expand genetic diversity on one side and increase tissue complexity on the other. Chimeroids integrate multiple donor genomes within single organoids. Self‐organising multi‐identity organoids, exogenous cell seeding, or enforced assembly of region‐specific organoids contribute to tissue complexity.

Solvent-Controlled Product Distribution in Vanillin Hydrogenation over a N‑Doped Carbon-Supported Nickel Catalyst

, 2023
Solvent-controlled hydrogenation of vanillin to 4-hydroxymethyl-2-methoxyphenol (HMP) or 2-methoxy-4-methylphenol (MMP) is an attractive topic in the field of bio-oil utilization. Herein, a nickel-based catalyst supported on a N-doped carbon material (Ni-

Hyperosmotic stress induces PARP1‐mediated HPF1‐dependent mono(ADP‐ribosyl)ation

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Sorbitol‐induced hyperosmotic stress rapidly induces reversible mono(ADP‐ribosyl)ation (MARylation) on PARP1 without the signs of genotoxic signaling. We show that PARP1 autoMARylation is HPF1 dependent and forms hydroxylamine‐resistant O‐glycosidic linkages.
