Achieving selective (sp3)C–H hydroxylation can streamline the synthesis of complex organic molecules. Biocatalysis presents an opportunity to realize this transformation, however, identifying useful enzymes that enable synthetic strategies can be a challenge due to limitations in enzyme substrate scope.

Biocatalysts for Peptide Geranylation With Linear and Cyclic Prenyl Groups
A combination of genome mining, synthetic biology, and biocatalytic assays revealed enzymes that install linear and cyclized prenyl moieties on ribosomally or chemically synthesized peptides. The promiscuity of both enzymes, while being specific for modification of C‐terminal tryptophans, enables enzymatic access to peptide terpenoid hybrids.

PABPC1 in Cancer: From a Translational Housekeeper to a Stress‐Responsive Regulatory Hub
PABPC1 shifts from a translational housekeeper to a stress‐responsive oncogenic hub via phase separation, PTMs, and non‐coding RNA crosstalk, selectively driving oncogene translation and therapy resistance in cancer. ABSTRACT PABPC1, long recognized as a constitutive translational housekeeper, has emerged as a stress‐responsive translational ...

Perspectives in biomedicine: Superfoods and antioxidant power classification
Abstract The market value of natural food antioxidants will double to 8 billion USD by 2033, driven by a global consumer demand for ‘clean label’ products and proactive wellness solutions. However, the industrial application and health labelling (commercial brands) of these compounds remain severely constrained by inconsistent analytical methods.

Antifouling Napyradiomycins from Marine-Derived Actinomycetes Streptomyces aculeolatus
The undesired attachment of micro and macroorganisms on water-immersed surfaces, known as marine biofouling, results in severe prevention and maintenance costs (billions €/year) for aquaculture, shipping and other industries that rely on coastal and off ...
