Cupin‐Type Dimethylsulfoniopropionate Lyase from Pelagibacter ubique (DddKPu) Catalyzes Aza‐Michael Addition of Primary and Secondary Amines to Acrylic Acid

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
A dimethylsulfoniopropionate lyase (DddK) was identified as an efficient aza‐Michaelase for the addition of amines to acrylate. Screening 74 amines with wild‐type DddK and its W26G variant yielded N‐substituted and N,N‐disubstituted β‐amino acids in 30%–93% isolated yield.

Alginate Lyases: Sources, Mechanism of Activity and Potencial Application

Squalen, 2013
Alginate lyases are group of enzymes which catalyze depolymerization of alginate into oligosaccharides. Alginate lyase have been widely used in many applications such as in production of bioactive oligosaccharides, control of polysaccharide rheological ...

Comparative Characterization of Aspergillus Pectin Lyases by Discriminative Substrate Degradation Profiling

Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2020
Fungal genomes often contain several copies of genes that encode carbohydrate active enzymes having similar activity. The copies usually have slight sequence variability, and it has been suggested that the multigenecity represents distinct reaction ...

Xylose Metabolism Perturbation in Yarrowia lipolytica for Efficient Succinic Acid Bioproduction from Lignocellulosic Biomass

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study engineers Yarrowia lipolytica to produce succinic acid (SA) from lignocellulosic biomass. Adaptive evolution and multi‐omics analysis identify regulators that alleviate xylose metabolic disorder. Multi‐copy integration of xylose metabolic genes resolves redox imbalances from a futile fatty acid cycle, producing high‐titer SA from corn stover

Apolipoprotein F is reduced in humans with steatosis and controls plasma triglyceride‐rich lipoprotein metabolism

Hepatology, EarlyView., 2022
Hepatic APOF transcript levels correlate inversely with plasma TG and hepatic steatosis in humans. ApoF expression in mice promotes VLDL‐TG production and lipoprotein remnant clearance in mice. Abstract Background NAFLD affects nearly 25% of the global population. Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the most common cause of death among patients with NAFLD,

Biomedical Applications of Nanozymes: An Enzymology Perspective

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
With a lens of enzymology, this review compares nanozymes with enzymes using the Michaelis‐Menten model and differences in KM and kcat along with catalysis in complex biological environment. The implications of these differences in biomedical applications of nanozymes are then described with a statistical analysis of the trend of therapeutic use of ...

Identification and characterization of a critical loop for the high activity of alginate lyase VaAly2 from the PL7_5 subfamily

Frontiers in Microbiology
As the major component in the cell wall of brown algae, alginates are degradable by alginate lyases via β-elimination. Alginate lyases can be categorized into various polysaccharide lyase (PL) families, and PL7 family alginate lyases are the largest ...

Biochemical, Kinetic, and Spectroscopic Characterization of Ruegeria pomeroyi DddW--A Mononuclear Iron-Dependent DMSP Lyase. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2015
The osmolyte dimethylsulfoniopropionate (DMSP) is a key nutrient in marine environments and its catabolism by bacteria through enzymes known as DMSP lyases generates dimethylsulfide (DMS), a gas of importance in climate regulation, the sulfur cycle, and ...

SP3 and DEP1 Orchestrate Panicle Architecture by Jointly Regulating APO2 Expression in Rice

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The transcription factor SP3 enhances inflorescence meristem activity and interacts with the cysteine‐rich domain of DEP1. This interaction alters DEP1's subcellular localization between the plasma membrane and nucleus, and suppresses SP3‐mediated transcriptional activation of APO2.

Amide and Thioester Synthesis Via Oxidative Coupling of Alcohols with Amines or Thiols Using Alcohol Dehydrogenases

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Alcohol dehydrogenases (ADHs) are best known for reducing ketones to chiral alcohols, but their oxidative potential is rarely exploited. Here, we show that selected ADHs catalyze newly discovered promiscuous transformations: the oxidative coupling of primary alcohols with amines or thiols, enabling the direct and efficient synthesis of a broad range of
