Structures and proton-pumping strategies of mitochondrial respiratory enzymes [PDF]
Enzymes of the mitochondrial respiratory chain serve as proton pumps, using the energy made available from electron transfer reactions to transport protons across the inner mitochondrial membrane and create an electrochemical gradient used for the ...

Erythrocytes as Carriers of Therapeutic Enzymes. [PDF]
Therapeutic enzymes are administered for the treatment of a wide variety of diseases. They exert their effects through binding with a high affinity and specificity to disease-causing substrates to catalyze their conversion to a non-noxious product, to ...

Analysis of nucleosome repositioning by yeast ISWI and Chd1 chromatin remodeling complexes [PDF]
ISWI proteins form the catalytic core of a subset of ATP-dependent chromatin remodelling activities in eukaryotes from yeast to man. Many of these complexes have been found to reposition nucleosomes, but with different directionalities.

Structural insight into catalytic mechanism of PET hydrolase
Poly-ethylene terephthalate (PET) is a widely used plastic which accumulates in the environment with detrimental consequences. Here the authors report crystal structures of a PET-hydrolyzing enzyme from the microbe Ideonella sakaiensis bound to substrate

New Insights Into Sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.) FatA and FatB Thioesterases, Their Regulation, Structure and Distribution [PDF]
Sunflower seeds (Helianthus annuus L.) accumulate large quantities of triacylglycerols (TAG) between 12 and 28 days after flowering (DAF). This is the period of maximal acyl-acyl carrier protein (acyl-ACP) thioesterase activity in vitro, the enzymes that

Plastics degradation by hydrolytic enzymes: The plastics‐active enzymes database—PAZy
Petroleum‐based plastics are durable and accumulate in all ecological niches. Knowledge on enzymatic degradation is sparse. Today, less than 50 verified plastics‐active enzymes are known.

Enzymes as chaperones and chaperones as enzymes
Chaperones and foldases are two groups of accessory proteins which assist maturation of nascent peptides into functional proteins in cells. Protein disulfide isomerase, a foldase, and ATP‐dependent proteases, responsible for degradation of misfolded proteins in cells, both have intrinsic chaperone activities.
