Structural insights into urocanate reductase using room‐temperature X‐ray crystallography
The active‐site dynamics of the microbial enzyme urocanate reductase were revealed by room‐temperature X‐ray crystallography.Urocanate reductase (UrdA) is a bacterial enzyme that converts urocanic acid to imidazole propionate. Its catalytic residue Arg411 undergoes a large conformational change in the substrate‐bound versus product‐bound states.

Economic anthropologists now carry out fieldwork in settings for which the ethnographic method was never designed, amongst powerful financial actors who are notoriously difficult to access, and in contexts which transcend geographical boundaries. This has engendered a re‐orientation of anthropology, to consider not only the economic lives of people but
