Insights into pyrrolysine function from structures of a trimethylamine methyltransferase and its corrinoid protein complex [PDF]
Communications Biology, 2023 Structures of Methanosarcina barkeri trimethylamine methyltransferase (MttB) with its substrates reveal the role of pyrrolysine in methyl group transfer from trimethylamine to the corrinoid cofactor in MttC.

Programmed Deviations of Ribosomes From Standard Decoding in Archaea
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2021 Genetic code decoding, initially considered to be universal and immutable, is now known to be flexible. In fact, in specific genes, ribosomes deviate from the standard translational rules in a programmed way, a phenomenon globally termed recoding ...

Unconventional genetic code systems in archaea
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2022 Archaea constitute the third domain of life, distinct from bacteria and eukaryotes given their ability to tolerate extreme environments. To survive these harsh conditions, certain archaeal lineages possess unique genetic code systems to encode either ...

Virtual 2D map of cyanobacterial proteomes
PLoS ONE, 2022 Cyanobacteria are prokaryotic Gram-negative organisms prevalent in nearly all habitats. A detailed proteomics study of Cyanobacteria has not been conducted despite extensive study of their genome sequences.

Synthesis of spiropyrrolizidines containing quinoxaline and pyrrole fragments [PDF]
Известия Саратовского университета. Новая серия: Серия Химия. Биология. Экология, 2023 The reaction of 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition azomethine ylides obtained by the in situ interaction of 11H-indeno[1,2-b]quinoxalin-11-one and proline, and 3-phenyl-1-pyrrolyl-2-en-1-ones has been used for the synthesis of substituted spiropyrrolizidines in ...
