Diversity of ThDP‐Dependent Enzymes Forming Chiral Tertiary Alcohols

open access: yesChemBioChem, EarlyView.
Chiral tertiary alcohols are widespread in nature and bioactive compounds; however, their asymmetric synthesis faces several challenges. This review outlines the toolbox of ThDP‐dependent enzymes able to produce tertiary alcohols through the formation of CC bond formation using ketones as acceptor substrates. Herein, the substrate scope, the diversity

Characterization of DnaB–DnaG Interaction in M. tuberculosis Using Small‐Angle X‐ray Scattering‐Based Dissociation Assay

open access: yesChemBioChem, EarlyView.
The study characterizes interactions between DnaB helicase and DnaG primase in Mycobacterium tuberculosis using small‐angle X‐ray scattering, surface plasmon resonance, and cross‐linking. The findings reveal that DnaG forms dimers in solution, which are destabilized upon DnaB binding.

Synthesis and Evaluation of Trehalose‐Based Mertansine Warheads for BCG Delivery of Anti‐Cancer Agents

open access: yesChemBioChem, Accepted Article.
Non‐muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) accounts for 75% of bladder cancer cases, with Bacillus Calmette‐Guérin (BCG) immunotherapy as the gold standard for high‐risk patients. BCG elicits a robust immune response but is limited by adverse effects and resistance. To enhance its efficacy, we developed a trehalose‐based conjugation strategy, tethering

Interaction of mycobacterium tuberculosis with the host cells: a focus in the molecular mechanism involved in trafficking and autophagy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Tuberculosis (TB) is an ancient disease remaining a serious health threat worldwide. It is caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb), an acid-fast bacilli, non-sporulated, slow-growing, immobile and aerobic.

Emended description of Mycobacterium abscessus, Mycobacterium abscessus subsp. abscessus and Mycobacteriumabscessus subsp. bolletii and designation of Mycobacteriumabscessus subsp. massiliense comb. nov.

open access: yesInternational Journal of Systematic and Evolutionary Microbiology, 2016
The taxonomic position of members of the Mycobacterium abscessus complex has been the subject of intensive investigation and, in some aspects confusion, in recent years as a result of varying approaches to genetic data interpretation.

C13‐Deacylase from Nocardioides albus Resp. Streptomyces sp., Catalyzing Side Chain Hydrolysis on the Taxane Core

open access: yesChemCatChem, EarlyView.
An enzyme that has been identified and characterized as capable of hydrolyzing paclitaxel (Taxol), a key anticancer drug derived from Pacific yew (Taxus brevifolia) has been identified. Molecular docking (MD) simulations map the catalytic triad and critical residues that drive substrate‐enzyme interactions. The findings indicate the catalytic potential
