Self-assembly of three bacterially-derived bioactive lipopeptides [PDF]

, 2013
The self-assembly in aqueous solution of three lipopeptides obtained from Bacillus subtilis has been investigated. The lipopeptides surfactin, plipastatin and mycosubtilin contain distinct cyclic peptide headgroups as well as differences in alkyl chain ...

Enzymatic Prenylation of Proteins and Peptides: From Cysteine S‐Prenylation to Tryptophan‐Selective Biocatalysis

Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
This review highlights biocatalytic prenylation as a versatile strategy for tailoring the functional properties of peptides and proteins. By comparing branched isoprenoids with linear lipids, we illustrate how specific prenyl architectures modulate the behaviors of lipidated proteins within membrane environments.

Functionally complementary bacterial inoculant coordinates arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi to improve Angelica sinensis root yield and quality

iMetaOmics, EarlyView.
Comprehensive understanding of how diverse PGPR strains enhance the rhizosphere microenvironment remains a considerable challenge. Here, we provide experimental evidence that a functionally synergistic composite microbial formulation can markedly enhance growth performance and improve the quality attributes in Angelica sinensis.

Emerging Agents for Boron Neutron Capture Therapy: Biomolecular Carriers Paving the Way for Precision Radiotherapy

Precision Radiation Oncology, EarlyView.
Boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT) requires key non‐negotiable technical criteria: megadose administration, precise tumor‐specific targeting, favorable biocompatibility, and sustained tumor retention. Overcoming these interconnected challenges fundamentally depends on biomolecular carriers, which are critical for translating the therapeutic potential
