ABSTRACT Cytosolic phosphoenoylpyruvate carboxykinase (PEPCK‐C) is an essential, rate‐limiting enzyme in the gluconeogenesis pathway. PEPCK‐C deficiency presents with hypoglycaemia, hyperlactataemia and hepatopathy, and was first reported in association with bi‐allelic PCK1 variants in 2014.

Directed Evolution of an Efficient Polycarbonate Depolymerase With Exceptional Operational Stability
Here, we show that well studied PET hydrolases can be re‐engineered via directed evolution to deconstruct alternative aromatic‐containing commodity polymers. Introduction of only three mutations into LCCICCG was sufficient to generate an efficient polycarbonate hydrolase with high operational stability that can fully depolymerize a polycarbonate sample

The Phenotypic Spectrum of Sporadic Creutzfeldt‐Jakob Disease Cortical Subtype
Objective The objective of this study was to characterize the phenotypic spectrum of the rare sporadic Creutzfeldt‐Jakob disease cortical subtype (sCJDMM/MV2C) in a large multicentric autopsy cohort. Methods We evaluated clinical histories, biofluid markers, brain diffusion‐weighted (DW)‐magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and electroencephalogram (EEG ...

Direct Selection of Functional De Novo Macrocycles for Activation of On‐Cellulo Insulin Receptor
A live‐cell screening platform, RaPID‐ExCells, integrates mRNA display‐derived macrocyclic peptide libraries with functional selection against native cell‐surface receptors. Application to the insulin receptor enabled de novo discovery of a macrocyclic agonist that activates endogenous signaling despite weak in vitro binding, highlighting the power of ...

Objective Biallelic variants in PRKN cause autosomal recessive Parkinson's disease (PD) with a median age at onset of 31 years. When evaluating the 16 previously published carriers of a homozygous deletion of Exon 2 from the International Parkinson's Disease and Movement Disorder Society Gene Database (MDSGene) database, the median age at onset is ...
