Synergistic Degradation of Pyrethroids by the Quorum Sensing-Regulated Carboxylesterase of Bacillus subtilis BSF01

Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2020
The well-studied quorum sensing (QS) mechanism has established a complex knowledge system of how microorganisms behave collectively in natural ecosystems, which contributes to bridging the gap between the ecological functions of microbial communities and

Polyesterase activity and thermostability of carboxylesterases from Thermoleophilum album YS‐3

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Three novel α/β‐hydrolases from thermophilic bacterium Thermoleophilum album display carboxylesterase and polyesterase activity. These enzymes hydrolyse PET, PLA and PCL both at high and moderate temperatures. TA21 shows superior activity, efficiently converting MHET to terephthalic acid. Structural features underlying substrate binding highlight their

Hydrolytic Fate of 3/15-Acetyldeoxynivalenol in Humans: Specific Deacetylation by the Small Intestine and Liver Revealed Using in Vitro and ex Vivo Approaches

Toxins, 2016
In addition to deoxynivalenol (DON), acetylated derivatives, i.e., 3-acetyl and 15-acetyldexynivalenol (or 3/15ADON), are present in cereals leading to exposure to these mycotoxins.

Transcriptomic and proteomic signatures underlying nymphal adaptation and foam production in the forage pest Mahanarva spectabilis

Insect Molecular Biology, EarlyView.
RNA‐seq and Batelli gland proteomics of fifth‐instar Mahanarva spectabilis nymphs reveal transcripts and proteins associated with xylem feeding, foam production and environmental interaction. Functional annotation identified genes involved in osmoregulation, detoxification, chemosensation and stress responses, while proteomic analysis confirmed ...

From biology to biotechnology: Host‐regulation factors from parasitoid wasps are a source of bioactive molecules with translational potential

Insect Molecular Biology, EarlyView.
Parasitoid wasps deploy maternal and embryonic factors to reprogramme host physiology. Venom, calyx fluid, polydnaviruses, teratocytes and larval secretions act in a coordinated, compartmentalised manner. Host‐regulation factors are promising sources of insecticidal, antimicrobial and bioinspired translational molecules.

The quantitative impact of metabolism‐inhibiting drugs on the occurrence of adverse drug reactions—A backward selection approach

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, Volume 92, Issue 7, Page 2203-2211, July 2026.
Abstract Aim The quantitative effect of several inhibitory drugs on the development of adverse drug reactions (ADRs) is currently difficult to estimate. Our aim was to identify metabolic pathways, which, when inhibited, increase the risk for certain ADRs, and to use this system to consider comedication at individual level. Methods Data of a prospective

Molecular biological characterisation of amplified esterases from organophosphate resistant and susceptible 'Culex quinquefasciatus'. [PDF]

Culex mosquitoes, as well as being vectors of filariasis and Japanese encephalitis, are a world wide biting nuisance. Organophosphorus insecticides (OPs) have been widely used to control Culex populations.

Human carboxylesterase 1 active site structure. [PDF]

, 2013
Active site of human carboxylesterase 1 covalently inhibited via S221 with cyclosarin (magenta) [8]. The other catalytic residues, in addition to S221, are H468 and E354 (yellow), and are surrounded by hydrophobic residues (grey surface) including V146 ...

Combination Treatment of Carboxyl Esterase 2-Overexpressing hTERT-Immortalized Human Adipose Stem Cells Enhances the Inhibition of Tumor Growth by Irinotecan in PC3, a Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer Model

Current Issues in Molecular Biology
Castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) remains difficult to treat with conventional chemotherapy. We evaluated a stem cell-based enzyme-prodrug strategy using hTERT-immortalized adipose-derived stem cells engineered to express rabbit ...

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 ...
