EP-Pred: A Machine Learning Tool for Bioprospecting Promiscuous Ester Hydrolases

Biomolecules, 2022
When bioprospecting for novel industrial enzymes, substrate promiscuity is a desirable property that increases the reusability of the enzyme. Among industrial enzymes, ester hydrolases have great relevance for which the demand has not ceased to increase.

Transcriptomic analyses reveal increased expression of dioxygenases, monooxygenases, and other metabolizing enzymes involved in anthracene degradation in the marine alga Ulva lactuca

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022
To analyze the mechanisms involved in anthracene (ANT) degradation in the marine alga Ulva lactuca, total RNA was obtained from the alga cultivated without ANT and with 5 μM of ANT for 24 h, and transcriptomic analyses were performed.
