The most elaborate known example of β‐oxidation‐like pathway recruitment in fungi is reported, involving a 10‐step oxidative chain‐shortening cascade catalyzed by five dedicated enzymes to generate the pharmacophore of mycophenolic acid (MPA)—a novel clinical immunosuppressant. Our findings illustrate how nature repurposes catabolic enzymes for complex

Rhamnolipid and lipase production by Pseudomonas aeruginosa san-ai: the process comparison analysis by statistical approach [PDF]
Pseudomonas aeruginosa was repeatedly reported as powerful producer of rhamnolipid biosurfactants as well as producer of hydrolytic enzymes. In this study effects of four fermentation factors were evaluated using response surface methodology and ...

Salt‐Induced Modulation of Self‐Assembly in C8‐10 AlkylPolyGlucoside/Fatty Alcohol Formulations
Salt's effect on the APG:1‐Dodecanol system was studied. Small‐angle X‐ray scattering showed salt increased interparticle correlation, leading to higher structural organization at higher salt concentrations. This correlates with observed viscoelastic properties. Cleaning efficiency tests were also conducted on samples.

Environmental contamination caused by inorganic compounds is a major problem affecting soils and surface water. Most remediation techniques are costly and generally lead to incomplete removal and production of secondary waste.

We successfully fabricated a thermodynamically stable microemulsion system encapsulating citrus essential oil, demonstrating potent free radical scavenging capacity. This formulation effectively inhibits the activity of browning‐related enzymes (polyphenol oxidase and peroxidase) in fresh‐cut apples, thereby preserving their postharvest quality and ...

Cold‐adapted Rhodococcus sp. strain R1B_2T from Arctic Tupirvik Beach (Northwest Passage) degrades short‐ to long‐chain hydrocarbons in summer seawater (−1°C to 5°C) via a synergistic activity of key hydrocarbon degradation genes (alkB, CYP153, almA, and ladA), with rhlABCR‐linked rhamnolipid production supporting biodegradation.

Promising Prodiginins Biological Activities
ABSTRACT Prodiginins are a large family of at least 34 pyrrolic compounds, including the well‐studied red pigment prodigiosin. Prodiginins are produced by several microorganisms displaying broad biological activities, including antimicrobial, antiviral, antiparasitic, antiproliferative, and immunosuppressive activities.

The RhlA specificity explains the observed differences in 3-(3-hydroxyalkanoyloxy)alkanoic acid (HAA) congeners. Whole-cell catalysts can now be designed for the synthesis of different congener mixtures of HAAs and rhamnolipids, thereby contributing to ...
