A uracil nitroso amine based colorimetric sensor for the detection of Cu²⁺ ions from aqueous environment and its practical applications [PDF]
A simple uracil nitroso amine based colorimetric chemosensor (UNA-1) has been synthesized and screened for its cation recognition ability. Sensor UNA-1 exhibited a high sensitivity and selectivity towards Cu²⁺ ions in aqueous medium in the presence of a ...

Summary Carbonic anhydrases (CAs) are ubiquitous metalloenzymes that catalyze the reversible hydration of CO2, enabling fundamental processes in organisms across all domains of life. Among all CAs, the role of mitochondrial βCA remains poorly understood. Here, we identify a mitochondrial βCA, βCA6, as a key regulator of branched‐chain amino acid (BCAA)

Multiple States of Nitrile Hydratase from Rhodococcus equi TG328-2: Structural and Mechanistic Insights from Electron Paramagnetic Resonance and Density Functional Theory Studies [PDF]
Iron-type nitrile hydratases (NHases) contain an Fe(III) ion coordinated in a characteristic “claw setting” by an axial cysteine thiolate, two equatorial peptide nitrogens, the sulfur atoms of equatorial cysteine-sulfenic and cysteine-sulfinic acids, and

A readily accessible multifunctional probe: simultaneous recognition of the cation ZN²⁺ and the anion F⁻ via distinguishable wavelengths [PDF]
The probe 1 was readily prepared via condensation of 8-formyl-7-hydroxy-coumarin and carbonic dihydrazide in a one-step procedure. Probe 1 exhibited high sensitivity and selectivity towards Zn²⁺ and F⁻ through a “turn-on” fluorescence response and/or ...

Antimicrobial and Cytotoxic Activities of Biogenic Nanoparticles Produced by Cyanobacteria
The article reviews the green synthesis of biogenic nanoparticles produced by cyanobacteria, highlighting their antimicrobial and cytotoxic properties. These nanoparticles, formed intra‐ or extracellularly, show activity against Gram‐positive and Gram‐negative bacteria as well as fungi and can induce apoptosis in tumor cells.

Divalent Metal Binding Properties of the Methionyl Aminopeptidase from \u3cem\u3eEscherichia coli\u3c/em\u3e [PDF]
The metal-binding properties of the methionyl aminopeptidase from Escherichia coli (MetAP) were investigated. Measurements of catalytic activity as a function of added Co(II) and Fe(II) revealed that maximal enzymatic activity is observed after the ...
