The synergistic interplay of electricity, light and earth‐abundant, nontoxic iron catalysis allowed for the efficient recycling of post‐consumer polymers into value‐added products. This robust depolymerization strategy was viable on multigram‐scale, where the cathodic hydrogen evolution reaction presents an attractive opportunity for a green hydrogen ...

The PEP—pyruvate—oxaloacetate node as the switch point for carbon flux distribution in bacteria: We dedicate this paper to Rudolf K. Thauer, Director of the Max-Planck-Institute for Terrestrial Microbiology in Marburg, Germany, on the occasion of his 65th birthday [PDF]
In many organisms, metabolite interconversion at the phosphoenolpyruvate (PEP)-pyruvate-oxaloacetate node involves a structurally entangled set of reactions that interconnects the major pathways of carbon metabolism and thus, is responsible for the ...

Structure and functional characterization of pyruvate decarboxylase from Gluconacetobacter diazotrophicus [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Bacterial pyruvate decarboxylases (PDC) are rare. Their role in ethanol production and in bacterially mediated ethanologenic processes has, however, ensured a continued and growing interest.

Kinetic evaluation of human cloned coproporphyrinogen oxidase using a ring isomer of the natural substrate [PDF]
Background: The enzyme coproporphyrinogen oxidase (copro\u27gen oxidase) converts coproporphyrinogen-Ill (GIII) to protoporphyrinogen-IX via an intermediary monovinyl porphyrinogen. The A ring isomer coproporphyrinogen-IV (C-IV) has previously been shown

Asparagine Decarboxylation by Lipid Oxidation Products in Model Systems
The decarboxylation of asparagine in the presence of alkanals, alkenals, and alkadienals, among other lipid derivatives, was studied in an attempt to understand the reaction pathways by which some lipid oxidation products are able to convert asparagine into acrylamide.

ABSTRACT Carbon materials synthesized from biomass are promising candidates for supercapacitor electrodes. Various activation processes for developing carbon materials with high surface areas have been investigated. Here, a manganese monoxide (MnO)–porous‐activated carbon (AC) composite was fabricated via the chemical activation of coconut shell by the

A mild oxidative decarboxylation of carbohydrate acids
4 pages, 1 table, 1 scheme. The oxidative decarboxylation of carbohydrate uronic or ulosonic acids with simultaneous replacement by an acetoxy group has been accomplished using the (diacetoxyiodo)benzene and iodine system under mild conditions. A general synthesis of derivatives of tetrodialdoses, and pentodialdoses in furanose or pyranose form is ...
