An Engineered Nonribosomal Peptide Synthetase Shows Opposite Amino Acid Loading and Condensation Specificity [PDF]
Engineering of nonribosomal peptide synthetases (NRPS) has faced numerous obstacles despite being an attractive path towards novel bioactive molecules. Specificity filters in the nonribosomal peptide assembly line determine engineering success, but the

Sustainable Routes Toward Amino Acid‐Based Surfactants: Borrowing Hydrogen Catalysis and Beyond
This perspective examines how amino acid‐based surfactants become more sustainable only when molecular architecture is matched to an appropriate synthetic disconnection. Borrowing Hydrogen catalysis provides a central route to N‐alkylated derivatives, while enzymatic, biosynthetic, and renewable‐platform strategies complement it.

Predicting Functional Diversity Within Enzyme Families: A Practical Perspective
Integrating machine learning into enzyme discovery requires navigating the trade‐offs between data quantity and quality. This article provides a best‐practice framework for developing robust predictors, focusing on mitigating bias in biochemical datasets, implementing systematic “cold‐drug” validation strategies, and utilizing explainable artificial ...
