Iron Physiology and Its Impact on Atopic Diseases: An EAACI Taskforce Report

open access: yesAllergy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Iron is essential for oxygen transport, energy metabolism, and immune regulation. Yet iron deficiency is the most common micronutrient disorder across all age groups, affecting nearly one quarter of the global population. Iron deficiency triggers nutritional immunity, a host defense mechanism that withholds and redistributes iron, contributing

IR spectroscopic and quantum-chemical manifestation of flavin mononucleotide’s isoalloxazine ring protonation

open access: yesБіофізичний вісник, 2016
Flavin mononucleotide (FMN) is the prosthetic group of many oxidoreductases performing redox function in cells. The coenzyme reversible reduction reaction involvs isoalloxazine ring which may take two electrons and two protons upon reduction. The spectra

Unraveling the active site cover of coproheme decarboxylase from Listeria monocytogenes

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
During heme biosynthesis in Gram‐positive bacteria, coproheme decarboxylase (ChdC) catalyzes the conversion of four‐propionate substrate coproheme to the two propionate product heme b. Its active site is universally covered by a flexible linking loop. This study identifies an important histidine residue, which stabilizes the loop in a ChdC homolog.

Variations in flavin redox states during extracellular electron transfer and electron conduction in Shewanella oneidensis

open access: yesElectrochemistry Communications
Flavin is one of the most prevalent redox molecules utilized by electroactive bacteria. Electroactive bacteria form a three-dimensional architecture with multiple cell assemblages on electrodes in bioelectrochemical systems.

A chemo‐enzymatic colorimetric cascade for detecting ethylene glycol contamination

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
A chemo‐enzymatic cascade is developed for ethylene glycol (EG) detection. EG is oxidized by GoADH with C1‐mediated cofactor recycling to produce glycolaldehyde (GAL). GAL subsequently reacts with purpald to generate a detectable purple chromophore.

Oxidative and Antioxidant Systems in Ferroptosis of Cancer: Mechanisms, Regulations, and Therapeutic Targeting

open access: yesMedComm – Oncology, Volume 5, Issue 3, September 2026.
Ferroptosis is governed by the balance between reactive oxygen species (ROS)‐driven lipid peroxidation and a multi‐tiered antioxidant network. ROS sources include mitochondrial electron transport chain, voltage‐dependent anion channels, NADPH oxidases, and endoplasmic reticulum‐resident oxidoreductases, while antioxidant defenses span the primary GSH ...

Coupling of Redox and Structural States in Cytochrome P450 Reductase Studied by Molecular Dynamics Simulation

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2019
Cytochrome P450 reductase (CPR) is the key protein that regulates the electron transfer from NADPH to various heme-containing monooxygenases. CPR has two flavin-containing domains: one with flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD), called FAD domain, and the ...

Exploiting the Reverse Function of Ene‐Reductase Enzymes in the Continuous Flow Synthesis of Naphthols From Tetralones

open access: yesAdvanced Synthesis &Catalysis, Volume 368, Issue 16, 18 August 2026.
The development and optimization of a continuous flow method for the use of ERED enzymes in the reverse mode is presented to convert tetralones into naphthols using air as the terminal oxidant. Both solution‐phase and the immobilized enzyme were explored along with different reactor configurations leading to product yields of up to 83% in short ...

Putative Mechanisms for Initial Reaction of Anaerobic Benzene Degradation Presumably Involving a Flavoprotein

open access: yesEnvironmental Microbiology, Volume 28, Issue 8, August 2026.
Anaerobic biodegradation of benzene by sulphate‐reducing strain BzS1 was studied by combining genomics, differential proteomics and targeted metabolite analyses. Strain BzS1 has an exceptionally streamlined metabolism. A highly abundant heterotrimeric flavoprotein may add benzene to either enolpyruvate or glutaconyl‐CoA followed by channelling into the

NADPH–Cytochrome P450 Reductase Mediates the Resistance of Aphis (Toxoptera) citricidus (Kirkaldy) to Abamectin

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2018
NADPH-cytochrome P450 reductase (CPR) plays an essential role in the cytochrome P450 enzyme system, which aids in the metabolism of endogenous and exogenous compounds including the detoxification of insecticides.
