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

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

Degradations of Allosecurinine
Chemical and Pharmaceutical Bulletin, 1965 Degradations of allosecurinine (III) gave the N-acetyl amino-lactone (IX), lactam-car-binol C (XIII), quinolizidine C (XVI), tetrahydroallosecurinine (XVIII) and compound (XIX). Identifications of the former three compounds (IX), (XIII) and (XVI) with the corresponding synthetic specimens provided a definite proof for the relative configuration of ...

The ubiquitin ligase RNF115 is required for the clearance of damaged lysosomes
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Upon lysosomal rupture, an E3 ubiquitin ligase RNF115 translocates from the cytosol to the damaged lysosomal membrane. Moreover, RNF115 depletion impairs the clearance of damaged lysosomes, identifying it as a key regulator of lysosomal quality control.

Novel Composite Electrolyte of Double-Doped Ceria-Sulphate for Medium Temperature Fuel Cells
International Journal of Electrochemical Science, 2020 In this study, Gd3+ and Er3+ double-doped CeO2 was synthesized by a microemulsion method. Ce0.8Er0.1Gd0.1O2-α-K2SO4-Li2SO4 composite electrolyte was prepared by mixing Ce0.8Er0.1Gd0.1O2-α powder with binary sulphates.
