Applications and limitations of AI tools in enzyme design

open access: yesProtein Science, Volume 35, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Enzymes catalyze various different chemical reactions often with high efficiency and selectivity compared to synthetic catalysts. Advances in protein engineering over the past decades have allowed researchers to design enzymes, improving their catalytic performance and adapting them for specific or entirely novel chemical reactions.

The X‐Ray Crystal Structure of BorF, the Flavin Reductase Subunit of a Two‐Component Flavin‐Dependent Tryptophan Halogenase

open access: yesProteins: Structure, Function, and Bioinformatics, Volume 94, Issue 8, Page 1529-1540, August 2026.
ABSTRACT BorF is a short‐chain flavin reductase from a desert soil bacterium that uses NADH to reduce FAD to FADH2, which is used by the tryptophan‐6‐halogenase BorH to chlorinate tryptophan in the biosynthetic pathway of borregomycin A. The X‐ray crystal structure of BorF bound to FAD was solved to 2.37 Å by molecular replacement.

Peptide‐Ligand Cooperative Interplay Drives Gold Nanoparticle Encapsulation by Protein Cages

open access: yesSmall, Volume 22, Issue 43, 3 August 2026.
Gold nanoparticle encapsulation within protein cages is governed by salt‐dependent binding energetics and cooperative peptide–ligand interactions. Ligands enhance electrostatic attraction while peptides extend recruitment and prevent kinetic trapping, enabling robust cargo loading. This molecular‐level insight links experiments and simulations, guiding

DNA‐Enzyme Hybrid Nanostructures: Functional Materials to Modulate Enzymatic Activity

open access: yesSmall, Volume 22, Issue 43, 3 August 2026.
DNA–enzyme hybrid nanostructures enable precise spatial and stoichiometric control over enzyme organization, offering a powerful platform to modulate catalytic activity. This review critically evaluates key mechanistic hypotheses, including proximity effects, microenvironment changes, confinement, and stabilization, as well as highlighting ...

Putative Mechanisms for Initial Reaction of Anaerobic Benzene Degradation Presumably Involving a Flavoprotein

open access: yesEnvironmental Microbiology, Volume 28, Issue 8, August 2026.
Anaerobic biodegradation of benzene by sulphate‐reducing strain BzS1 was studied by combining genomics, differential proteomics and targeted metabolite analyses. Strain BzS1 has an exceptionally streamlined metabolism. A highly abundant heterotrimeric flavoprotein may add benzene to either enolpyruvate or glutaconyl‐CoA followed by channelling into the
