The Role of Chemistry Across Disciplines From Humanities to Life Sciences in Understanding Complexity and Emergence

Angewandte Chemie, Volume 138, Issue 17, 20 April 2026.
This study explores the origins of life by linking prebiotic chemistry, the emergence of information‐carrying molecules such as RNA and proteins, and philosophical questions about consciousness. The study emphasizes the role of molecular evolution in the Central Dogma and provides insights into the chemical origins of biology and the basis of life's ...

Fluctuating β‐Sheet Secondary Structure in DS119 Explains the Small Effects of Backbone N‐Amination on Thermal Stability

Journal of Peptide Science, Volume 32, Issue 5, May 2026.
Residues with backbone N‐amination have been introduced into a region of parallel β‐sheet secondary structure. Contrary to predictions, the N‐amination of Trp9 or Phe33 did not give an increase in the thermal stability of DS119. MD simulations suggest this is due to the highly fluctuating nature of the β‐sheet region. ABSTRACT The miniprotein DS119 has

Modular Assembly of Dynamic Polymer Networks From Heteroaffinity Cross‐Links to Multivalent Proteins

Angewandte Chemie, Volume 138, Issue 17, 20 April 2026.
This study develops a method to modularly assemble oligomeric binding proteins, like streptavidin, using heterobifunctional cross‐linkers that have both a strong‐ and a weak‐affinity binding moiety. These dynamic cross‐linkers enable the assembly of polymer networks with unique meta‐stable nonequilibrium topologies, and that exhibit chemically tunable ...

Enzymatic synthesis of bioactive quinolones and (thio)coumarins by fungal type III polyketide synthases

The FEBS Journal, Volume 293, Issue 9, Page 2673-2691, May 2026.
Quinolones are valuable scaffolds for drug discovery but are rare in nature. Here, we show that two fungal enzymes, AthePKS and FerePKS, can generate 2‐quinolones and two additional heteroaromatic scaffolds. Using AthePKS, we designed an artificial enzymatic cascade towards an antimicrobial quinolone from a simple precursor and implemented it in E ...

Advances and opportunities for computational interrogation of plant proteins

The Plant Journal, Volume 126, Issue 3, May 2026.
SUMMARY Plants exhibit remarkable biochemical and physiological diversity, and are capable of adapting to a wide range of environmental conditions and stresses. This complexity makes them essential systems for understanding how life responds to a changing climate.

Design, Synthesis, and Biological Evaluation of Novel Triazine‐Based Dual Histone Deacetylase/phosphatidylinositol 3‐kinase Inhibitors for Breast Cancer Therapy

ChemMedChem, Volume 21, Issue 8, 28 April 2026.
Breast cancer is the most frequently diagnosed malignancy and a leading cause of cancer‐related mortality among women worldwide. Triple‐negative breast cancer (TNBC) poses a major clinical challenge due to its aggressive nature, limited therapeutic options, and high propensity for drug resistance.

Structural Mechanism of an Efficacy Photoswitch Targeting the β2‐adrenergic Receptor

Angewandte Chemie International Edition, Volume 65, Issue 18, 27 April 2026.
Time‐resolved structures from x‐ray free‐electron laser measurements combined with cellular assays demonstrate how the photoswitchable β‐blocker photoazolol‐1 acts as an efficacy switch of β2‐adrenergic receptor function. Light‐induced ligand repositioning shifts activity from inverse agonism toward neutral antagonism by altering local helical ...
