Journal of Enzyme Inhibition and Medicinal Chemistry, 2023 Carbonic anhydrases (CAs) are a zinc metalloenzymes that catalyse the reversible hydration of carbon dioxide to bicarbonate and proton, pivotal for a wide range of biological processes. CAs are involved in numerous pathologies and thus represent valuable

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.We report the computational design of de novo proteins that bind Mn(salen)‐based complexes (L1) using Rosetta FastDesign and verified by AlphaFold2. After screening, the catalytic activity for the promising design (dnMSBP) toward enantioselective sulfoxidation of thioanisole was optimized based on its crystal structure. With 10 different substrates, we

Carbonic Anhydrases: Role in pH Control and Cancer
Metabolites, 2018 The pH of the tumor microenvironment drives the metastatic phenotype and chemotherapeutic resistance of tumors. Understanding the mechanisms underlying this pH-dependent phenomenon will lead to improved drug delivery and allow the identification of new ...

A Conserved Isoleucine Gates the Diffusion of CO and O2 to the Active Site of NiFe CO‐Dehydrogenase
Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.A combination of protein film electrochemistry and site‐directed mutagenesis shows that isoleucine 563 (numbering of Thermococcus sp. AM4) gates the arrival of both CO and O2 to the active site of the nickel‐iron CO dehydrogenases. Mutations at this position increase the resistance to O2 at the cost of a slower reaction with CO.

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.An enantioselective photometallobiocatalytic cross‐coupling of pyridotriazoles and secondary alkyltrifluoroborate salts is developed. Cooperative catalysis using eosin B and an engineered protoglobin combines visible‐light‐mediated radical generation with enzymatic metal carbenoid activation, affording valuable N‐heterocyclic products in excellent ...
