General Principles for Yield Optimization of Nucleoside Phosphorylase-Catalyzed Transglycosylations [PDF]
This is our publication "General Principles for Yield Optimization of Nucleoside Phosphorylase-Catalyzed Transglycosylations" that described the prediction and optimization of yields in nucleoside transglycosylations mediated by nucleoside phosphorylases.

Purine nucleoside phosphorylases (PNPs) play an important role in the blood fluke parasite Schistosoma mansoni as a key enzyme of the purine salvage pathway. Here we present the structural and kinetic characterization of a new PNP isoform from S. mansoni,

Structure of Escherichia coli AMP Nucleosidase Reveals Similarity to Nucleoside Phosphorylases [PDF]
AMP nucleosidase (AMN) catalyzes the hydrolysis of AMP to form adenine and ribose 5-phosphate. The enzyme is found only in prokaryotes, where it plays a role in purine nucleoside salvage and intracellular AMP level regulation.

Biosynthesis and Genetic Tuning of Guanine Crystals via Metabolic Engineering of Yeast
We demonstrate how yeast cells can be harnessed as cellular factories for the synthesis of optically functional guanine crystals, where genetic editing is used to tune crystal size, order and optical properties. This demonstrates a powerful new biosynthetic approach for the development of sustainable and biocompatible optical pigments, which utilizes ...

The Peculiar Case of the Hyperthermostable Pyrimidine Nucleoside Phosphorylase from Thermus Thermophilus [PDF]
The poor solubility of many nucleoside and nucleobases in aqueous solution demands harsh reaction conditions (base, heat, cosolvent) in nucleoside phosphorylase-catalyzed processes to facilitate substrate loading beyond the low millimolar range. This, in

This work develops a metabolic sharing strategy that employs cytidine monophosphate (CMP) to competitively reprogram floxuridine (FUDR) pyrimidine metabolism in colorectal tumor cells. Elevated intracellular FdUMP induces nucleotide imbalance, drives mitochondrial DNA release and cGAS‐STING innate immune cascade activation, and potentiates robust ...

ABSTRACT Background Chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) is frequently associated with polymicrobial biofilms involving Staphylococcus aureus and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Interactions between these organisms are thought to influence disease severity, but the epithelial effects of exoproteins derived from patient‐matched cocultures remain poorly defined ...

Abstract Background Transcription factors of the MIT/TFE family—mitfa, mitfb, and tfec—play essential roles in specifying pigment cells derived from neural crest cells in vertebrates. In teleosts, which possess multiple pigment cell types, these factors exhibit partially redundant but largely distinct functions across different pigment lineages.
