Nitrous oxide metabolism in nitrate-reducing bacteria: Physiology and regulatory mechanisms [PDF]
, 2016 Nitrous oxide (N2O) is an important greenhouse gas (GHG) with substantial global warming potential and also contributes to ozone depletion through photochemical nit- ric oxide (NO) production in the stratosphere.

Life, 2015 Nitrogen starvation acclimation in non-diazotrophic cyanobacteria is characterized by a process termed chlorosis, where the light harvesting pigments are degraded and the cells gradually tune down photosynthetic and metabolic activities.

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.The radical SAM enzyme NirJ is responsible for the removal of two propionate side chains from its substrate didecarboxy‐siroheme during heme d1 biosynthesis. The cleavage products of the NirJ reaction were not known so far. In this study, it is shown that acrylate is formed as the reaction byproduct and that the resulting tetrapyrrole product carries ...

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.Quantum simulations of the catalytic center (CuB) of cytochrome c oxidase, driving the electron transport system, revealed a crucial role of Val243 in modulation of ligand binding. Val243‐driven interaction facilitates hybridization between CO and Fe orbitals, thus highlighting Val243's impact on electronic structure and ligand dynamics.

The ins and outs of metal homeostasis by the root nodule actinobacterium Frankia [PDF]
, 2014 Background: Frankia are actinobacteria that form a symbiotic nitrogen-fixing association with actinorhizal plants, and play a significant role in actinorhizal plant colonization of metal contaminated areas.

Biochemical and structural characterization of chlorite dismutase enzyme from Pseudomonas aeruginosa
The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.Chlorite dismutase (Cld) is a heme b oxidoreductase that can decompose chlorite (ClO2−$$ {\mathrm{ClO}}_2^{-} $$ or OClO−) into harmless chloride (Cl−) and dioxygen (O2) with high turnover rates. Cld was found to be involved in different biological processes, and the rare reaction it catalyzes makes it a prominent enzyme for different applications. The

Allosteric communication in Dihydrofolate Reductase: Signaling network and pathways for closed to occluded transition and back [PDF]
arXiv, 2007 E. Coli. dihydrofolate reductase (DHFR) undergoes conformational transitions between the closed (CS) and occluded (OS) states which, respectively, describe whether the active site is closed or occluded by the Met20 loop. A sequence-based approach is used to identify a network of residues that represents the allostery wiring diagram.
