Reflections on the Origin of Coded Protein Biosynthesis
The principle of continuity posits that some central features of primordial biocatalytic mechanisms should still be present in the genetically dependent pathway of protein synthesis, a crucial step in the emergence of life.

High-resolution electrochemical STM of redox metalloproteins [PDF]
Electrochemical studies of redox active metalloproteins have become an increasingly fruitful area of study in recent years, particularly with the single-molecule resolution capability of electrochemical scanning tunnelling microscopy (EC-STM) which ...

ABSTRACT Neisseria gonorrhoeae poses an urgent public health challenge due to rapidly increasing antimicrobial resistance and the absence of an effective vaccine. Targeting conserved bacterial pathways involved in essential physiological processes may provide new opportunities for vaccine antigen discovery.

While X‐ray crystallography has been the primary method for determining the structures of metalloproteins, cryoEM has taken over this role, illustrated by [4Fe4S]‐cluster containing proteins deposited in the Protein Data Bank. What will be the role for X‐ray crystallography as cryoEM and machine learning methods dominate the initial structural analysis?

Quadrupolar metal ion NMR studies of metalloproteins
We present a summary of the quadrupolar metal ion NMR studies of metalloproteins conducted in our laboratory in recent years. The approaches we employ can be subdivided into two categories: (i) the use of low-frequency metal nuclei to probe metal ion ...
