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.

Processing of Snake Venom Metalloproteinases: Generation of Toxin Diversity and Enzyme Inactivation
Snake venom metalloproteinases (SVMPs) are abundant in the venoms of vipers and rattlesnakes, playing important roles for the snake adaptation to different environments, and are related to most of the pathological effects of these venoms in human victims.
