Rethinking plastic waste: innovations in enzymatic breakdown of oil‐based polyesters and bioplastics

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Plastic pollution remains a critical environmental challenge, and current mechanical and chemical recycling methods are insufficient to achieve a fully circular economy. This review highlights recent breakthroughs in the enzymatic depolymerization of both oil‐derived polyesters and bioplastics, including high‐throughput protein engineering, de novo ...

Hydrothermal vents supporting persistent plumes and microbial chemoautotrophy at Gakkel Ridge (Arctic Ocean)

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology
Hydrothermal vents emit hot fluids enriched in energy sources for microbial life. Here, we compare the ecological and biogeochemical effects of hydrothermal venting of two recently discovered volcanic seamounts, Polaris and Aurora of the Gakkel Ridge, in

Electrocatalytic Behavior of Pt/WO3 Composite Layers Formed Potentiodynamically on Tungsten Surfaces

open access: yesInternational Journal of Electrochemical Science, 2017
The Pt/WO3 composites, in a form of thin layer on W support, were prepared by potentiodynamic polarization of either bare or oxide covered tungsten disc in hexachloroplatinic acid solutions. Both the Pt loading and the thickness of WO3 interlayer between

ATG4B is required for mTORC1‐mediated anabolic activity and is associated with clinical outcomes in non‐small cell lung cancer

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
The relationship between anabolic and catabolic processes governing lung cancer cell growth is nuanced. We show that ATG4B, an autophagy regulator, is elevated in lung cancer and that high ATG4B is associated with worse patient outcomes. Targeting ATG4B in cells reduces growth, protein synthesis, and mTORC1 activity, demonstrating a new relationship ...

Purification of reversibly oxidized proteins (PROP) reveals a redox switch controlling p38 MAP kinase activity. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2010
Oxidation of cysteine residues of proteins is emerging as an important means of regulation of signal transduction, particularly of protein kinase function.

An effective palynological preparation procedure using hydrogen peroxide [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Most pre-Quaternary palynology samples are currently prepared by demineralization of the sediment/sedimentary rock matrix using hydrochloric and hydrofluoric acids (HCl and HF respectively).

Oxidation of deuteroferrihaem by hydrogen peroxide [PDF]

open access: yesBiochemical Journal, 1973
1. The oxidation of deuteroferrihaem by H2O2 to bile pigment and CO was studied both by stopped-flow kinetic spectrophotometry and mass spectrometry, at 25°C, I=0.1m. 2. Spectrophotometric studies imply that, at constant pH, the rate of bile pigment formation is first-order with respect to [H2O2] and also proportional to [deuteroferrihaem monomer]. The

Dietary nitrate and nitrite protect against doxorubicin‐induced cardiac fibrosis and oxidative protein damage in tumor‐bearing mice

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Chemotherapies such as doxorubicin can have toxic effects on healthy cardiovascular/heart tissue. Following up on a doxorubicin toxicity study in mice without tumors where nitrate water was cardioprotective (lessened toxicity), this study with tumor‐bearing mice undergoing doxorubicin treatment showed no negative effect of nitrate and nitrite on drug ...
