Preparative‐Scale Biocatalytic Oxygenation of N‐Heterocycles with a Lyophilized Peroxygenase Catalyst

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, Volume 135, Issue 5, January 26, 2023., 2023
A lyophilized preparation of an unspecific peroxygenase variant from Agrocybe aegerita (rAaeUPO‐PaDa‐I‐H) is a highly effective catalyst for the oxygenation of a diverse range of N‐heterocyclic compounds. Scalable, high yielding and enantioselective biocatalytic oxygenations have been developed, including 27 preparative examples (ca.

The Role of Cytochrome P450 AbyV in the Final Stages of Abyssomicin C Biosynthesis

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie International Edition, Volume 62, Issue 3, January 16, 2023., 2023
The cytochrome P450 enzyme AbyV catalyses a key epoxidation in the final stages of the biosynthesis of the spirotetronate antibiotic abyssomicin C. Combining structural and computational data with a 13C labelling strategy was found to be a powerful approach to interrogate the biotransformation and determine the precise function of the enzyme.

Predictive biomarkers for 5‐ALA‐PDT can lead to personalized treatments and overcome tumor‐specific resistances

open access: yesCancer Reports, Volume 5, Issue 12, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Background Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is a minimally invasive, clinically approved therapy with numerous advantages over other mainstream cancer therapies. 5‐aminolevulinic acid (5‐ALA)‐PDT is of particular interest, as it uses the photosensitiser PpIX, naturally produced in the heme pathway, following 5‐ALA administration.

Heme Oxygenase 1 in the Nervous System: Does It Favor Neuronal Cell Survival or Induce Neurodegeneration?

open access: yesInternational Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2018
Heme oxygenase 1 (HO-1) up-regulation is recognized as a pivotal mechanism of cell adaptation to stress. Under control of different transcription factors but with a prominent role played by Nrf2, HO-1 induction is crucial also in nervous system response ...

The Protective Role of Heme Oxygenase-1 in Atherosclerotic Diseases

open access: yesInternational Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2019
Heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) is an intracellular enzyme that catalyzes the oxidation of heme to generate ferrous iron, carbon monoxide (CO), and biliverdin, which is subsequently converted to bilirubin.

Gromomycins: An Unprecedented Class of Triterpene Antibiotics Produced by a Novel Biosynthetic Pathway

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Gromomycins represent a novel class of pentacyclic triterpene antibiotics with a unique biosynthetic pathway independent of the squalene route. These compounds exhibit potent activity against drug‐resistant Gram‐positive pathogens, including MRSA, and their unprecedented cyclization mechanism provides new insight into bacterial triterpene biosynthesis.

The protective effects of rutin on the liver, kidneys, and heart by counteracting organ toxicity caused by synthetic and natural compounds

open access: yesFood Science &Nutrition, Volume 11, Issue 1, Page 39-56, January 2023., 2023
Rutin is a flavonoid present in many plant species. Because of its antioxidant, anti‐inflammatory, and anti‐apoptotic properties, rutin is of interest for its potential protective effects against toxic agents. Rutin has potential therapeutic effectiveness against several toxicants, and its beneficial effects are more than likely mediated by its ...

Haptoglobin and hemopexin inhibit vaso-occlusion and inflammation in murine sickle cell disease: Role of heme oxygenase-1 induction

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2018
During hemolysis, hemoglobin and heme released from red blood cells promote oxidative stress, inflammation and thrombosis. Plasma haptoglobin and hemopexin scavenge free hemoglobin and heme, respectively, but can be depleted in hemolytic states ...

Stilbene‐based derivatives as potential inhibitors of trimethylamine (TMA)‐lyase affect gut microbiota in coronary heart disease

open access: yesFood Science &Nutrition, Volume 11, Issue 1, Page 93-100, January 2023., 2023
Docking results showed Resveratroloside had the highest Vina score, indicating that it was the most active and might be employed as a lead molecule for further structural modification. The possible action process of TMA‐Lyase lead compound was described, which further affects the occurrence and development of CHD.
