How important are quantum mechanical effects in controlling biological functions: Enzymes, electron transfer and bird navigation

open access: yesProtein Science, Volume 35, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract In light of the centennial of the Schrödinger equation, this article addresses the popular idea that quantum mechanical effects play an important role in biological systems. We start by defining what is qualified as a quantum effect. We then clarify the idea that quantum mechanical tunneling is a crucial factor in enzyme catalysis.

Fendioxypyracil, a new and systemic PPO‐inhibiting herbicide for X‐spectrum weed control

open access: yesPest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 7, Page 6794-6807, July 2026.
This graphical abstract presents the discovery and synthesis of PPO herbicide structures with a central pyridine core, showing molecular conformations, dose–response inhibition curves for PPO1 and PPO2, and comparative weed and grass control efficacy of fendioxypyracil versus other herbicides in greenhouse and field trials.

“That We May Love the As Yet Unknown God”: The Meaning of Analogy in Augustine’s De Trinitate

open access: yesModern Theology, Volume 42, Issue 3, Page 708-729, July 2026.
Abstract Recent interest in the idea of analogy and the analogy of being, along with the apparent invocation of Augustine’s De Trinitate in the definition of Lateran IV, calls for a renewed investigation into the idea of analogy in the aforementioned text. Methodologically, “analogy” in De Trin. names a form of discourse which attempts to see the truth

Structural Elucidation and Engineering of the (S)‐scoulerine 2‐O‐Methyltransferase Enabling Regioselective Epiberberine Biosynthesis in Coptis chinensis

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 7, Page 4528-4545, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Protoberberine alkaloids are a characteristic group of natural products in Coptis plants known for their notable pharmacological activities. However, the structural similarity and the substrate promiscuity of their biosynthetic enzymes have left the precise synthetic pathways remain unclarified, posing challenges to regulate product formation.

Co(II), Cu(II), and Ni(II) Coordination Complexes: Synthesis, Characterization, Experimental, and Computational Study on Potential Antiplasmodial Activity

open access: yesChemMedChem, Volume 21, Issue 12, 26 June 2026.
Four isostructural complexes (C1–C4) derived from 2‐(tert‐butoxy)‐6‐(1H‐imidazol‐1‐yl)pyridine with axial halides exhibit octahedral trans M(L)4X2 geometries, confirmed by X‐ray diffraction. They feature a discrete 1,6M7−1 topology, identified using ToposPro analysis.

The Anatomy of Convection Under Lake Ice: Reynolds Stresses and Convective Energy Budget From In Situ Observations

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 11, 16 June 2026.
Abstract We present the first in situ observations of the full turbulence tensor of free convection under lake ice, obtained using an original method based on a set of two synchronized acoustic Doppler profilers to measure all six turbulent stress components.

Sodium Tetraazidoaurate(III)—From Na[AuCl4]·2H2O to Na[Au(N3)4] and Beyond One Step at a Time

open access: yesChemistry – A European Journal, Volume 32, Issue 22, 9 June 2026.
Novel sodium chlorido‐/azidoaurate(III) dihydrates Na[AuCl4–x(N3)x]·2H2O (x = 0, 1, 2, 3, 4) provide the first example of a complete series of gradual substitution on tetramer complex anions to be described. Controlled dehydration of Na[Au(N3)4]·2H2O leads to Na[Au(N3)4]·H2O and Na[Au(N3)4], the latter being a highly explosive material.
