Affinity‐Based Interactome Mapping of Inositol Pyrophosphates Reveals 4/6‐PP‐InsP5‐Binding Proteins in Plants

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Inositol pyrophosphates (PP‐InsPs) are central regulators of eukaryotic signaling events. While certain PP‐InsP isomers have been conclusively linked to the regulation of phosphate homeostasis through interaction with SPX domain‐containing proteins in plants, the functions of the recently discovered isomer 4/6‐PP‐InsP5 remain largely unknown ...

Stereoselective Biotransformation: Transfer of Learning to Advance Drug Metabolism and Biocatalysis

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Understanding stereoselective biotransformations has implications for predicting drug disposition and response and may also inspire novel biocatalytic and biomimetic strategies to address challenges in metabolite and API synthesis. ABSTRACT Chirality is an important determinant of drug action, as enantiomers can exhibit markedly different ...

Screening of DUB activity and specificity by MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry [PDF]

, 2014
Deubiquitylases (DUBs) are key regulators of the ubiquitin system which cleave ubiquitin moieties from proteins and polyubiquitin chains. Several DUBs have been implicated in various diseases and are attractive drug targets. We have developed a sensitive

A Genomic Catalog of Migratory Microbiomes from Wild Birds across China's Habitats

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Migratory birds play an important role in the spread of antimicrobial resistance (AMR); however, gaps in surveillance data from vital regions along migratory flyways across China limit the detection of emergent threats. Here, we assembled 340 metagenomes from 52 bird species covering 11 provincial administrative districts in China, presenting ...
