Femtosecond X-ray solution scattering reveals that bond formation mechanism of a gold trimer complex is independent of excitation wavelength

open access: yesStructural Dynamics, 2016
The [Au(CN)2−]3 trimer in water experiences a strong van der Waals interaction between the d10 gold atoms due to large relativistic effect and can serve as an excellent model system to study the bond formation process in real time.

Structural insights into an engineered feruloyl esterase with improved MHET degrading properties

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
A feruloyl esterase was engineered to mimic key features of MHETase, enhancing the degradation of PET oligomers. Structural and computational analysis reveal how a point mutation stabilizes the active site and reshapes the binding cleft, expading substrate scope.

Concordant chemical reaction networks [PDF]

open access: yesMathematical Biosciences, 2012
We describe a large class of chemical reaction networks, those endowed with a subtle structural property called concordance. We show that the class of concordant networks coincides precisely with the class of networks which, when taken with any weakly monotonic kinetics, invariably give rise to kinetic systems that are injective --- a quality that ...

Gut microbiome and aging—A dynamic interplay of microbes, metabolites, and the immune system

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Age‐dependent shifts in microbial communities engender shifts in microbial metabolite profiles. These in turn drive shifts in barrier surface permeability of the gut and brain and induce immune activation. When paired with preexisting age‐related chronic inflammation this increases the risk of neuroinflammation and neurodegenerative diseases.

Investigation of the Adsorption and Reactions of Methyl Radicals on Transition Metal (M = Co, Ni, Pd, Pt) (111) Surfaces in Aqueous Suspensions

open access: yesMolecules
The DFT method was used to evaluate the adsorption of methyl radicals and the evolution of ethane on the M(111) (M = Co, Ni, Pd, Pt) surfaces, eight metal atoms, in aqueous medium. A maximum of five and four radicals can be adsorbed on Co(111) and Ni(111)

Quantum indistinguishability in chemical reactions [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2018
Significance Counter to conventional approaches that treat nuclear coordinates classically, we explore quantum indistinguishability of nuclei in enzymatic chemical reactions of small symmetric molecules. Supported by several physical arguments, we conjecture a far-reaching “quantum dynamical selection” (QDS) rule ...

Valosin‐containing protein counteracts ATP‐driven dissolution of FUS condensates through its ATPase activity in vitro

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Biomolecular condensates formed by fused in sarcoma (FUS) are dissolved by high ATP concentrations yet persist in cells. Using a reconstituted system, we demonstrate that valosin‐containing protein (VCP), an AAA+ ATPase, counteracts ATP‐driven dissolution of FUS condensates through its D2 ATPase activity.

Mechanistic studies of some chemical and biochemical reactions [PDF]

open access: yes
Three aspects of chemical and biochemical reactions were investigated. 1. The relative reactivities of pyrophosphate (phosphorus(V)) and pyro-di-H-phosphonate (phosphorus(III)) and its derivatives have been analysed at various pHs.

Colloidal zinc oxide-copper(I) oxide nanocatalysts for selective aqueous photocatalytic carbon dioxide conversion into methane

open access: yesNature Communications, 2017
Photocatalytic reduction and oxidation reactions, involving multiple electrons and operating in tandem, are extremely challenging to achieve. Here, with a hybrid structure of ZnO and Cu2O, the authors report photocatalytic carbon dioxide reduction to ...

Hyperosmotic stress induces PARP1‐mediated HPF1‐dependent mono(ADP‐ribosyl)ation

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Sorbitol‐induced hyperosmotic stress rapidly induces reversible mono(ADP‐ribosyl)ation (MARylation) on PARP1 without the signs of genotoxic signaling. We show that PARP1 autoMARylation is HPF1 dependent and forms hydroxylamine‐resistant O‐glycosidic linkages.
