How to Enhance the Applicability of Metal Ion Affinity‐bound Biocatalysts? Comprehensive Overview and Case Study With a Phenylalanine Ammonia Lyase and an Amine Transaminase

open access: yesChemBioChem, Volume 27, Issue 8, April 2026.
Co2+‐charged EDTA‐based affinity function on various supports enabled metal ion affinity immobilization of a phenylalanine ammonia‐lyase (PcPAL) or an amine transaminase (VfTA). The best PcPAL forms were stable in reactions performed in 6M ammonia. Recharging the magnetic nanoparticle (MNP) form of PcPAL or VfTA after diethylenetriamine elution and ...

Population Genetic Differences Between Two Cucurbit Leaf Beetles With Contrasting Feeding Preferences

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.
The study revealed that the polyphagous A. indica exhibits higher genetic diversity, lower differentiation, and higher gene flow than the oligophagous A. lewisii, with these differences attributed to their distinct dietary preferences. A. lewisii populations showed significant isolation‐by‐distance, whereas A.
