Toward the Bioremediation of Nylon Waste Materials: Genome Mining Leads to the Identification of a Thermostable Laurolactamase From Thermopolyspora flexuosa. [PDF]
ChemSusChemTo enhance nylon waste remediation, genome mining was used to identify a thermostable laurolactam hydrolase from Thermopolyspora flexuosa with activity against an important cyclic nylon derivative. Substrate scope analysis and structural modeling revealed key features controlling enzyme‐substrate compatibility, providing a promising foundation for ...

Poly(ethylene Glycol)-Based Peptidomimetics (Pegtides) of Antimicrobial Peptides. [PDF]
ChembiochemPolyethylene glycol (PEG) is commonly used to improve the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of therapeutic candidates by conjugation. Here PEG is exploited for peptidomimetic conversion of antimicrobial peptides (AMPs), as candidate antibacterial agents, by replacing their polyamide backbone. The pegtides obtained thereby can be readily synthesized
