(1) The main chain structure of Holothuria leucospilota polysaccharides (HLP‐Ⅰ) was presumed to be roughly as →3)‐β‐d‐GalpNAc‐(1→4)‐β‐d‐GlcpA‐(1→. (2) with T‐Fucp on the branched chain or a rockulose chain consisting of →3,4)‐α‐l‐Fucp‐(1→. (3) HLP‐Ⅰ showed high amorphous platelet content and disordered arrangement, while the molecule adapted a sphere ...

A series of 14 novel 1,4‐benzoxazinone derivatives is tested against various strains of Mycobacterium tuberculosis. All compounds show high activity against all tested strains, particularly the resistant strains. Additionally, the novel derivatives exhibit low cytotoxicity toward mammalian Vero cells.

Quantitative comparison of catalytic mechanisms and overall reactions in convergently evolved enzymes : implications for classification of enzyme function [PDF]
The authors thank the National Institutes of Health (NIH R01 GM60595 to PCB) and the Scottish Universities Life Sciences Alliance (SULSA to JBOM) for funding.Functionally analogous enzymes are those that catalyze similar reactions on similar substrates ...

Abstract Purple sulfur bacteria (PSB) of the family Chromatiaceae (Gammaproteobacteria) can perform chemo‐ and photo‐lithoautotrophy (through anoxygenic photosynthesis) in anoxic layers of freshwater stratified (including meromictic) lakes. This group has been extensively studied via physiological and ecological approaches, albeit their genomics has ...

Recent trends in whole cell and isolated enzymes in enantioselective synthesis [PDF]
Modern synthetic organic chemistry has experienced an enormous growth in biocatalytic methodologies; enzymatic transformations and whole cell bioconversions have become generally accepted synthetic tools for asymmetric synthesis.

Identification of chemically sulfated/desulfated glycosaminoglycans in contaminated heparins and development of a simple assay for the detection of most contaminants in heparin [PDF]
Contaminated heparin was linked to at least 149 deaths and hundreds of adverse reactions. Published report indicates that heparin contaminants were a natural impurity, dermatan sulfate, and a contaminant, oversulfated chondroitin sulfate (OSCS). OSCS was

In the nascent processes of the beginnings and evolution of life, nucleobases and especially purines, ribonucleos(t)ides and primitive RNAs have been continuously modified. A RNA‐peptide world and key metabolic pathways probably have emerged from the corresponding chemical modifications resulting from adenine deamination, purine alkylation and ...

How members of the human gut microbiota overcome the sulfation problem posed by glycosaminoglycans [PDF]
The human microbiota, which plays an important role in health and disease, uses complex carbohydrates as a major source of nutrients. Utilization hierarchy indicates that the host glycosaminoglycans heparin (Hep) and heparan sulfate (HS) are high ...

Designing Enzymatic Reactivity with an Expanded Palette
Innovation in biocatalysis is rapidly increasingly the diversity of catalytic reactivity that can be mediated by enzymes, addressing a key bottleneck for their widespread adoption in industrial chemical synthesis. A key approach to this is building enzymes with unnatural catalytic components that provide an expanded palette with new possibilities for ...

In this study, RNA‐seq was employed to investigate the temporal transcriptional response of C. glutamicum ATCC 13032 to external H2O2 at 720 mM (2.45% w/w). The results reveal significant changes in gene expression across multiple pathways, including peroxide scavenging, central metabolism, sulphur and iron metabolism, amino acid biosynthesis, and DNA ...
