Animals and Fungi are Each Other's Closest Relatives: Congruent Evidence from Multiple Proteins [PDF]
Phylogenetic relationships among plants, animals, and fungi were examined by using sequences from 25 proteins. Four insertions/deletions were found that are shared by two of the three taxonomic groups in question, and all four are uniquely shared by ...

The 3S Enantiomer Drives Enolase Inhibitory Activity in SF2312 and Its Analogues
We recently reported that SF2312 ((1,5-dihydroxy-2-oxopyrrolidin-3-yl)phosphonic acid), a phosphonate antibiotic with a previously unknown mode of action, is a potent inhibitor of the glycolytic enzyme, Enolase.
