The fischerazoles, unusual cyanobacterial chlorinated lipopeptides are reported. During their biosynthesis, a linear fatty acyl‐acyl carrier protein (ACP) precursor is rearranged through the action of the S‐adenosyl‐methionine (SAM)‐dependent methyltransferase FshF, to generate a pendant vinyl group.

Generalizable Strategies for the Synthesis of Cereblon‐Recruiting PROTAC Prodrugs
Cereblon‐recruiting PROTACs remain challenging to derivatize for prodrug‐based delivery. In this study, three complementary conjugation strategies enabled the efficient synthesis of cleavable PROTAC prodrugs with tunable release kinetics that can be incorporated into a library of PEGylated constructs and bottlebrush prodrugs.

Generation of the Camptothecin Scaffold by a Flavin‐Catalyzed Photooxidative Skeletal Reorganization
The biosynthetic pathway of the anticancer drug precursor camptothecin involves an enigmatic skeletal reorganization from a 6/5/6 tetrahydro‐β‐carboline to a 6/6/5 pyrroloquinoline ring system. Here, we show that this transformation can be achieved by photooxidation with flavin cofactors, such as flavin mononucleotide (FMN) as catalysts.

Chemoenzymatic Synthesis of Well‐Defined α(2,8)‐ and α(2,9)‐Linked Oligosialosides
Well‐defined α(2,8)‐ and α(2,9)‐linked oligosialic acids of different lengths can be prepared by employing recombinant bacterial polysialyltransferases in combination with chemically modified CMP‐Neu5Ac derivatives. After transfer, a sialoside is formed bearing an artificial entity, which blocks further glycosylation.

Caging Polyhalide Anions in Polycyclodextrin for Long‐Lasting Aqueous Zinc‐Iodine Batteries
We demonstrated poly(β‐cyclodextrin) gel as an ideal host material that effectively contains and releases polyhalide anions in aqueous zinc‐iodine batteries. Such a unique host‐guest chemistry prevents the shuttle effect of polyhalides. The corresponding batteries can operate via both 2e and 4e storage, attaining 60,000 cycles with more than 99% and 85%

Environmental Identification of Novel Enzymes for Polyurethane and Polyamide Degradation
Heteroatom‐containing plastics such as polyurethanes and nylons are produced at scale yet remain largely unrecycled. Biocatalysts offer a promising route to depolymerization under mild conditions. Here, we present a screening platform for the discovery of novel polyurethane‐ and nylon‐degrading enzymes from environmental samples and demonstrate ...
