Bottom‐Up Synthesized Glucan Materials: Opportunities from Applied Biocatalysis
Linear d‐glucans, simple yet versatile polysaccharides, shape nanostructures crucial for biomaterial development. Shifting from top‐down to bottom‐up synthesis using natural and engineered enzymes provides meticulous control over polymer structures, fostering diversification for macromolecular materials.

Distinct co-evolution patterns of genes associated to DNA polymerase III DnaE and PolC
Background Bacterial genomes displaying a strong bias between the leading and the lagging strand of DNA replication encode two DNA polymerases III, DnaE and PolC, rather than a single one.

The biological essence of synthetic lethality: Bringing new opportunities for cancer therapy
Synthetic lethality exploits vulnerabilities in cancer cells, targeting aberrant pathways resulting from genetic mutations or pharmacological interventions. This strategy extends beyond the tumor cells to include the tumor microenvironment, such as stromal cells and signaling molecules, to enhance treatment responses and eradicate cancer.

Kinetic studies on the phosphorolysis of polynucleotides by polynucleotide phosphorylase
The kinetics of the phosphorolysis of polynucleotide (as differentiated from oligonucleotide) by polynucleotide phosphorylase of Micrococcus luteus has been investigated. Double reciprocal plots of initial velocity against either inorganic phosphate or polynucleotide concentration are linear, and furthermore, the affinity of the enzyme for either ...
