Engineering a Single Amino Acid Bionanozyme for Ultrasensitive Detection of Biomarkers: A WHO‐REASSURE‐ Aligned Approach

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A unique 2D bionanozyme, engineered from a single amino acid and copper ions, demonstrates peroxidase‐mimicking catalytic activity. This efficient and simple bionanozyme allows for ultrasensitive, equipment‐free visual detection of key biomarkers in both test and real samples, meeting the WHO‐REASSURE standards for practical diagnostic applications ...

The Fe–V Cofactor of Vanadium Nitrogenase Contains an Interstitial Carbon Atom

Angewandte Chemie, 2015
The first direct evidence is provided for the presence of an interstitial carbide in the Fe–V cofactor of Azotobacter vinelandii vanadium nitrogenase. As for our identification of the central carbide in the Fe–Mo cofactor, we employed Fe Kβ valence-to ...

Next‐Generation Bio‐Reducible Lipids Enable Enhanced Vaccine Efficacy in Malaria and Primate Models

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Structure–activity relationship (SAR) optimization of bio‐reducible ionizable lipids enables the development of highly effective lipid nanoparticle (LNP) mRNA vaccines. Lead LNPs show superior tolerability and antibody responses in rodents and primates, outperforming approved COVID‐19 vaccine lipids.

Covalently bound substrate at the regulatory site triggers allosteric enzyme activation [PDF]

, 2008
The mechanism by which the enzyme pyruvate decarboxylase from yeast is activated allosterically has been elucidated. A total of seven three-dimensional structures of the enzyme, of enzyme variants or of enzyme complexes form two yeast species (three of ...

Non-Hamiltonian systems separable by Hamilton-Jacobi method

, 2007
We show that with every separable calssical Stackel system of Benenti type on a Riemannian space one can associate, by a proper deformation of the metric tensor, a multi-parameter family of non-Hamiltonian systems on the same space, sharing the same ...

Harnessing Non‐Covalent Protein–Protein Interaction Domains for Production of Biocatalytic Materials Systems

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Non‐covalent protein–protein interactions mediated by SH3, PDZ, or GBD domains enable the self‐assembly of stable and biocatalytically active hydrogel materials. These soft materials can be processed into monodisperse foams that, once dried, exhibit enhanced mechanical stability and activity and are easily integrated into microstructured flow ...

Overcoming barriers for investigating nickel-pincer nucleotide cofactor-related enzymes

mBio
The nickel-pincer nucleotide (NPN) cofactor is a modified pyridinium mononucleotide that tri-coordinates nickel and is crucial for the activity of certain racemases and epimerases. LarB, LarC, and LarE are responsible for NPN synthesis, with the cofactor

Import of cytochrome c into mitochondria [PDF]

, 1989
The covalent attachment of heme to apocytochrome c, and therefore the import of cytochrome c into mitochondria, is dependent on both NADH plus a cytosolic cofactor that has been identified to be FMN or FAD.

The compositional and evolutionary logic of metabolism

, 2012
Metabolism displays striking and robust regularities in the forms of modularity and hierarchy, whose composition may be compactly described. This renders metabolic architecture comprehensible as a system, and suggests the order in which layers of that ...

Altered cofactor regulation with disease-associated p97/VCP mutations

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2015
Significance Age-associated degenerative diseases have similar pathogenic mechanisms related to defects in protein homeostasis. p97/VCP (valosin-containing protein) is essential for coordinating protein degradation and is mutated in a multisystem ...
