Optimisation of a Novel Class of DNA Gyrase Inhibitors to Improve Antibacterial Activity

open access: yesChemMedChem, Volume 21, Issue 11, 15 June 2026.
This article describes efforts to increase the antibacterial activity of a recently reported class of novel DNA gyrase inhibitors known as the isoquinoline sulphonamides by improving their uptake in bacterial cells. As antibiotic resistance continues to rise, the need for new antibacterials is clear.

Seniority‐Zero Quadratic Canonical Transformation Theory

open access: yesInternational Journal of Quantum Chemistry, Volume 126, Issue 12, June 15, 2026.
We construct a unitary transformation of electronic Hamiltonians using quadratic canonical transformation theory, choosing the transformation to minimize the non‐seniority‐zero elements of the transformed Hamiltonian. This allows us to add dynamic correlation to the static correlation inherent in orbital‐optimized doubly‐occupied (seniority‐zero ...

High‐Energy Topological Edge States and Strain‐Induced Multiple Flat Bands in a Honeycomb Lattice

open access: yesNanophotonics, Volume 15, Issue 11, 13 June 2026.
This work proposes a novel anti‐twig edge in the honeycomb lattice that supports two symmetric high‐energy edge states. Moreover, the suppression or enhancement of the high‐energy edge state is observed, and strain‐induced multiple flat bands are produced.

Enantioselective Synthesis of Lactic Acid From CO2 Using a Novel Pyruvate Decarboxylase in a Scalable Biocatalytic Cascade

open access: yesAdvanced Synthesis &Catalysis, Volume 368, Issue 11, 3 June 2026.
We report a scalable biocatalytic cascade that converts CO2 and acetaldehyde to pyruvate via a newly characterized pyruvate decarboxylase, followed by stereoselective reduction to lactic acid. The system enables fully switchable enantioselectivity using either L‐ or D‐lactate dehydrogenases.

A methionine‐lined active site governs carbocation stabilization and product specificity in a bacterial terpene synthase

open access: yesFEBS Letters, Volume 600, Issue 11, Page 1621-1637, June 2026.
This study reveals a unique active site enriched in methionine residues and demonstrates that these residues play a critical role by stabilizing carbocation intermediates through novel sulfur–cation interactions. Structure‐guided mutagenesis further revealed variants with significantly altered product profiles, enhancing pseudopterosin formation. These
