Affinity‐Based Interactome Mapping of Inositol Pyrophosphates Reveals 4/6‐PP‐InsP5‐Binding Proteins in Plants

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 26, 8 May 2026.
ABSTRACT Inositol pyrophosphates (PP‐InsPs) are central regulators of eukaryotic signaling events. While certain PP‐InsP isomers have been conclusively linked to the regulation of phosphate homeostasis through interaction with SPX domain‐containing proteins in plants, the functions of the recently discovered isomer 4/6‐PP‐InsP5 remain largely unknown ...

Decoding the Hexosamine Biosynthesis Pathway: Implications for Novel Therapeutic Strategies in Sarcoma

open access: yesJournal of Cellular Physiology, Volume 241, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Cancer cells rewire their metabolism to sustain a high proliferation rate. Sensing external cues is essential to match the metabolic fluxes of the cells to the external stimuli. As part of the glucose metabolism, the hexosamine biosynthesis pathway (HBP) is considered a nutrient‐sensing pathway. The HBP produces UDP‐GlcNAc, a key precursor for

Application of termite hindgut metagenome derived carboxyl ester hydrolases in the modification of cephalosporin substrates

open access: yesBiochemistry and Biophysics Reports, 2015
In the pharmaceutical industry, de-acetylated cephalosporins are highly valuable starting materials for producing semi-synthetic β-lactam antibiotics. In this study a fosmid metagenome library from termite hindgut symbionts was screened for carboxyl ester hydrolases capable of de-acetylating cephalosporins.
