Glycolysis‐derived lactate activates nucleus pulposus cell ferroptosis via Histon H3K18la‐mediated ACSL4 transcription and ACSL4 lactylation and aggravate intervertebral disc degeneration. Inhibiting glycolysis via gene silencing or chemical intervention reduces the production of lactate and ameliorates ferroptosis activation and nucleus pulposus ...

Molecular insights into the inhibition of angiotensin-converting enzyme 1 by hemopressin peptides
Inhibiting angiotensin-converting enzyme 1 (ACE1) is a key strategy for managing hypertension as it prevents the formation of angiotensin II, a potent vasoconstrictor. Given the adverse effects associated with synthetic inhibitors, there is an increasing

The biosynthetic mechanism of novel natural tetramic acid S‐TeA in Alternaria alternata is elucidated. Threonine acts as a precursor for 2‐amino‐3‐methylhexanoic acid (AMHA) synthesis via eight key enzymes from the branched‐chain amino acid biosynthetic pathway in the mitochondrion, wherein three unique enzymes (IPMS, IPMDH, and ISMD) play critical ...

Accelerating Drug Discovery in AutoDock-GPU with Tensor Cores [PDF]
In drug discovery, molecular docking aims at characterizing the binding of a drug-like molecule to a macromolecule. AutoDock-GPU, a state-of-the-art docking software, estimates the geometrical conformation of a docked ligand-protein complex by minimizing a scoring function.
