Lewis Pair‐Engineered CuMnOx as Cold‐Adapted Multinanozyme for Cooperative Hydrolytic and Oxidative Degradation of Raw Corn Stalk

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A Lewis pair site design strategy was established to construct Cu‐doped Mn‐based amorphous nanozymes, where Mn and oxygen vacancies generate cooperative acid‐base pairs. The resulting multinanozyme integrates glycosidase‐, oxidase‐, and cold‐adapted enzyme‐mimicking activities, enabling cooperative depolymerization of cellulose and hemicellulose ...

Synergistic Tuning of Conformational Dynamics, Electron Tunneling, and Substrate Positioning Enhances Electron Transfer in a P450 Chimera for Calcifediol Biosynthesis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A synergistic electron transfer (ET) optimization strategy modulating conformational dynamics, ET pathway, and substrate orientation is proposed for self‐sufficient cytochrome P450s. Guided by this strategy, a P450 variant with improved ET and catalytic efficiency was identified, and the underlying molecular basis was revealed by computational analysis.

The β-N-Acetylhexosaminidase in the Synthesis of Bioactive Glycans: Protein and Reaction Engineering

Molecules, 2019
N-Acetylhexosamine oligosaccharides terminated with GalNAc act as selective ligands of galectin-3, a biomedically important human lectin. Their synthesis can be accomplished by β-N-acetylhexosaminidases (EC 3.2.1.52).

Engineering New‐to‐Nature Biological Pathways for β,γ‐Alkanediol Synthesis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
β,γ‐Alkanediols are value‐added chemicals to be used as functional solvents, biofuels, and cosmetic components. This work demonstrates a carboligation‐mediated approach for synthesis of linear chain β,γ‐alkanediols in Escherichia coli, namely, hexane‐2,3‐diol (2,3‐HDO) and pentane‐2,3‐diol (2,3‐PDO). The engineered E. coli cells produce 152.2 mm (17.98

Bilirubin as a Modulator of WNK1 Protein Signaling: Implications for Neuroinflammatory Diseases

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Previously regarded merely as a potentially harmful waste product of heme catabolism, bilirubin has now emerged as a pleiotropic molecule with potent antioxidant, anti‐inflammatory, and hormone‐like properties. Recent findings have revealed protective effects against cardiovascular, metabolic, autoimmune, and neoplastic diseases, as well as ...

Fluorinated Hypoxia‐Responsive Aza‐BODIPY for NIR‐II FL/19F MR/PA Imaging and Phototherapy of Lung Cancer

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Fluorinated N‐oxide aza‐BODIPY nanoemulsions integrate fluorination‐driven molecular design with co‐assembly in fluorinated oil for multimodal imaging‐guided phototherapy. The co‐assembly redshifts fluorescence into the NIR‐II window for deep‐tissue imaging and provides a unified 19F signal for background‐free, quantitative MRI.
