The possible evolutionary significance of pyrophosphate (PPi) has been discussed since the early 1960s. Lipmann suggested that PPi could have been an ancient currency or a possible environmental source of metabolic energy at origins, while Kornberg ...

Phosphatidylinositol 4‐kinase as a target of pathogens—friend or foe?
This graphical summary illustrates the roles of phosphatidylinositol 4‐kinases (PI4Ks). PI4Ks regulate key cellular processes and can be hijacked by pathogens, such as viruses, bacteria and parasites, to support their intracellular replication. Their dual role as essential host enzymes and pathogen cofactors makes them promising drug targets.

From local chemical evolution to cosmic chemical evolution [PDF]
My scientific life with Keith began about twenty five years ago with the study of the chemical evolution of light elements :cosmological elements D, He3, He4 and Li7 and spallative elements, LiBeB.

Refueling the Magic Furnace: Kilonova 2017 Rewrites the Story of Element Origins
For more than half a century, we have understood element creation in the stars—described in Marcus Chown’s colorful image as “the magic furnace.” From 1958 until 2017, supernova explosions were thought to be the primary site of element creation above ...

Protein pyrophosphorylation by inositol pyrophosphates — detection, function, and regulation
Protein pyrophosphorylation is an unusual signaling mechanism that was discovered two decades ago. It can be driven by inositol pyrophosphate messengers and influences various cellular processes. Herein, we summarize the research progress and challenges of this field, covering pathways found to be regulated by this posttranslational modification as ...

We reconstituted Synechocystis glycogen synthesis in vitro from purified enzymes and showed that two GlgA isoenzymes produce glycogen with different architectures: GlgA1 yields denser, highly branched glycogen, whereas GlgA2 synthesizes longer, less‐branched chains.

Chemical evolution with inhibited star formation rate
A simple model of galactic chemical evolution is developed which is based on a nonmonotonic variation of the rates of formation of stars of mass less than about 1 solar mass, and consequences of the inhibition of star formation are examined.

Einkorn (Triticum monococcum L. ssp. monococcum) is gaining renewed interest for its high nutritional value and digestibility. Lactic acid fermentation could enhance these properties by improving micronutrient bioavailability, sensory properties, and ...

We identified a systemic, progressive loss of protein S‐glutathionylation—detected by nonreducing western blotting—alongside dysregulation of glutathione‐cycle enzymes in both neuronal and peripheral tissues of Taiwanese SMA mice. These alterations were partially rescued by SMN antisense oligonucleotide therapy, revealing persistent redox imbalance as ...

The chemical evolution of the Bulge
I will discuss the chemical evolution of the Galactic Bulge in the light of recent spectroscopic observations. I will analyse the existence of two main stellar populations in the Bulge and their possible origin and timescales of formation.
