Crystal structures of protein phosphatase-1 bound to nodularin-R and tautomycin: a novel scaffold for structure-based drug design of serine/threonine phosphatase inhibitors. [PDF]
Protein phosphatase 1 occurs in all tissues and regulates many pathways, ranging from cell-cycle progression to carbohydrate metabolism. Many naturally occurring, molecular toxins modulate PP1 activity, though the exact mechanism of this differential regulation is not understood. A detailed elucidation of these interactions is crucial for understanding

Evaluation of Carbonized Corncobs for Removal of Microcystins and Nodularin-R from Water
Microcystins (MCs) and nodularins (NODs) are cyanotoxins that can be found in water bodies during cyanobacterial harmful algal blooms (cyanoHABs). Consumption of water contaminated with cyanotoxins leads to health risks for humans and animals.

A 15-min non-competitive homogeneous assay for microcystin and nodularin based on time-resolved Förster resonance energy transfer (TR-FRET). [PDF]
Simple and rapid methods are required for screening and analysis of water samples to detect cyanobacterial cyclic peptide hepatotoxins: microcystin/nodularin.

A Protein-Centric Mass Spectrometry Approach for Species Identification within Harmful Algal Blooms. [PDF]
Harmful algal blooms present severe environmental threats, impacting water quality, aquatic ecosystems, and human health. The frequency and intensity of these blooms are rising, largely driven by global warming and changing climatic conditions.

Occurrence and Diversity of Cyanotoxins and Retinoid Compounds in Antarctic Microbial Mats: Evidence From James Ross Island. [PDF]
Occurrence and distribution of cyanotoxins and retinoids across different Antarctic ecosystems at James Ross Island. These ecosystems harbour diverse microbial communities dominated by autotrophic cyanobacteria and algae, which can produce hazardous compounds for animals.

Using stable isotope analysis to determine the contribution of naturally occurring pond biota and supplementary feed to the diet of farmed Australian freshwater crayfish, redclaw () [PDF]
Nutritional requirements of redclaw (Cherax quadricarinatus) farmed in Australia are poorly understood and little is known on what is actively being consumed in semi-intensive pond culture.

How proteins bind macrocycles [PDF]
The potential utility of synthetic macrocycles (MCs) as drugs, particularly against low-druggability targets such as protein-protein interactions, has been widely discussed. There is little information, however, to guide the design of MCs for good target

Cyanobacterial Akinete Distribution, Viability, and Cyanotoxin Records in Sediment Archives from the Northern Baltic Sea [PDF]
Cyanobacteria of the order Nostocales, including Baltic Sea bloom-forming taxa Nodularia spumigena, Aphanizomenon flosaquae, and Dolichospermum spp., produce resting stages, known as akinetes, under unfavorable conditions.
