Incomplete Wood-Ljungdahl pathway facilitates one-carbon metabolism in organohalide-respiring Dehalococcoides mccartyi. [PDF]
The acetyl-CoA "Wood-Ljungdahl" pathway couples the folate-mediated one-carbon (C1) metabolism to either CO2 reduction or acetate oxidation via acetyl-CoA.

Mouse transcobalamin has features resembling both human transcobalamin and haptocorrin.
In humans, the cobalamin (Cbl) -binding protein transcobalamin (TC) transports Cbl from the intestine and into all the cells of the body, whereas the glycoprotein haptocorrin (HC), which is present in both blood and exocrine secretions, is able to bind ...

Cobalamin (CBL), the biologically active form of vitamin B12, and its analogs, are produced by bacteria only if cobalt supply is adequate. The analogs differ generally by the nucleotide moiety of the molecule.

A Cytochrome c‐Containing Periplasmic Nitrate Reductase in the Acetogen Sporomusa ovata
Sporomusa ovata, a cytochrome‐containing, acetogenic bacterium, conserves energy by reduction of carbon dioxide to acetate. Nitrate serves as additional electron acceptor and is reduced to ammonium, resulting in increased growth and reduced acetate production.

Navigating Transition Metal‐Dependent Cell Death: Mechanisms, Crosstalk, and Future Directions
Transition metals trigger distinct regulated cell death pathways beyond traditional apoptosis. This review examines ferroptosis (iron‐catalyzed lipid peroxidation) and cuproptosis (copper‐induced mitochondrial proteotoxicity), while exploring hypothetical “cobaltosis” as a novel pathway.

Cobalamin‐dependent aryl methyl ether O‐demethylases have high potential for biocatalytic applications, including lignin valorization and synthetic chemistry. In this review, we provide a detailed overview of such O‐demethylase systems identified to date from various microorganisms, including their mechanism, substrate scope and selectivity, and ...

Anaerobic Limonene Metabolism in a Methanogenic Enrichment Involves a Glycine Radical Enzyme
A methanogenic enrichment culture on the natural monoterpene limonene is characterised by a novel glycine radical enzyme for anaerobic hydrocarbon activation, the presence of a microbial loop for necromass utilisation and the presence of a predator of Bacteria and Archaea. ABSTRACT Limonene is a natural monoterpene omnipresent in human environments. It

Uneven distribution of cobamide biosynthesis and dependence in bacteria predicted by comparative genomics. [PDF]
The vitamin B12 family of cofactors known as cobamides are essential for a variety of microbial metabolisms. We used comparative genomics of 11,000 bacterial species to analyze the extent and distribution of cobamide production and use across bacteria ...
