Engineering a Virus‐Derived X Family DNA Polymerase FvPolX for de novo DNA Synthesis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
In this study, a Faustovirus‐derived polymerase (FvPolX) is engineered based on structural and sequence analysis of PolX enzymes. The optimal mutants demonstrate substantially enhanced catalytic activity toward dNTPs and 3′‐ONH2‐dNTPs compared to the wild‐type enzyme.

Unveiling the microbial diversity across the northern Ninety East Ridge in the Indian Ocean

Frontiers in Microbiology
Prokaryotes play a crucial role in marine ecosystem health and drive biogeochemical processes. The northern Ninety East Ridge (NER) of the Indian Ocean, a pivotal yet understudied area for these cycles, has been the focus of our study.

Ethical and Frugal Approaches to Animal Experimentation in Bioelectronics and Neural Engineering—An Invertebrate Renaissance?

Advanced Electronic Materials, EarlyView.
Invertebrates are the classic neuroscience models and should make a comeback. Invertebrate organisms can be a more ethical and cost‐effective way to move bioelectronics research forward more rapidly. ABSTRACT The accelerating development of bioelectronic neural interfaces has brought increased attention to ethical considerations surrounding in vivo ...

Induction of Recombinant Lectin Expression by an Artificially Constructed Tandem Repeat Structure: A Case Study Using Bryopsis plumosa Mannose-Binding Lectin

Biomolecules, 2018
Lectin is an important protein in medical and pharmacological applications. Impurities in lectin derived from natural sources and the generation of inactive proteins by recombinant technology are major obstacles for the use of lectins.

Selective Electrolysis of Water Under Artificial Seawater Conditions Using Transition Metal Borate Anodes

Advanced Energy Materials, EarlyView.
The borate‐based cobalt‐iron catalyst promotes selective oxidation of water rather than chlorine evolution reaction during electrolysis of seawater. When integrated into a zero‐gap electrolyzer prototype, this catalyst supports robust splitting of artificial seawater into oxygen and hydrogen on an extended timescale.

On the Discorhabdins Leading to the Aleutianamine Ring System: A One‐Step in Situ Transformation Characterized Through Computational and Experimental Studies and Its Implications on Biosynthesis, Synthesis, and Pharmacology

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
The thiocarbenium ion rearrangement of 3‐dihydrodisorhabdin B greatly increases the recovery of aleutianamine from Latrunculia spp., a pyrroloiminoquinone natural product with potent activity against drug‐resistant cancers, collected from the deep‐ocean along the Aleutian Islands.
