Housing sulfur: Certain fungi produce diketopiperazine compounds with a transannular sulfur bridge. These so‐called epipolythiodioxopiperzines are toxic by non‐specifically interacting with intracellular proteins and contribute to fungal pathogenicity. Producer strains serve as bio‐pesticides but also question safety of food fermentation.

Origin of Jordanian honeybees Apis mellifera (Hymenoptera: Apidae) using amplified mitochondrial DNA
The honeybee (Apis mellifera L.) has a large number of geographic subspecies distributed across Europe, Africa and Asia, many of which have been described. This identification is important for bee breeding and preserving honeybee biodiversity.

Prognostic relevance of cytochrome C oxidase in primary glioblastoma multiforme. [PDF]
Patients with primary glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) have one of the lowest overall survival rates among cancer patients, and reliable biomarkers are necessary to predict patient outcome.

DNA barcoding is a powerful tool for species detection, identification and discovery. Metazoan DNA barcoding is primarily based upon a specific region of the cytochrome c oxidase subunit I gene that is PCR amplified by primers HCO2198 and LCO1490 ...

Reliably assessing the electronic structure of cytochrome P450 on today's classical computers and tomorrow's quantum computers [PDF]
An accurate assessment of how quantum computers can be used for chemical simulation, especially their potential computational advantages, provides important context on how to deploy these future devices. In order to perform this assessment reliably, quantum resource estimates must be coupled with classical simulations attempting to answer relevant ...

Challenges in Elucidating the Free Energy Scheme of the Laccase Catalyzed Reduction of Oxygen
Bioinorganic chemistry: High potential variants of the multicopper enzyme laccase have a remarkably low overpotential for the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR). Understanding the precise underlying principles are potentially of great value in light of the energy transition wherein the ORR plays a crucial role.

Differentiation and cell density upregulate cytochrome c levels in megakaryoblastic cell lines: Implications for analysis of CYCS-associated thrombocytopenia. [PDF]
Mutations in the cytochrome c gene (CYCS) cause autosomal dominant thrombocytopenia by an unknown mechanism. While attempting to generate megakaryoblastic cell lines exogenously expressing cytochrome c variants, we discovered that endogenous cytochrome c

The thermophilic acetogenic model organism Moorella thermoacetica can utilize lactate as substrate. The formation of lactate by reduction of pyruvate is energetically favorable, but the reverse reaction, the oxidation of lactate to pyruvate with NAD+ as electron acceptor is challenging.

Cytochrome c oxidase, the terminal enzyme of the respiratory chain, is assembled from mitochondria- and nuclear-encoded subunits. The MITRAC complex represents the central assembly intermediate during this process as it receives imported subunits and ...
