Modifying the stereochemistry of an enzyme-catalyzed reaction by directed evolution [PDF]
Aldolases have potential as tools for the synthesis of stereochemically complex carbohydrates. Here, we show that directed evolution can be used to alter the stereochemical course of the reaction catalyzed by tagatose-1,6-bisphosphate aldolase.

The Stereochemistry of Ketoreduction [PDF]
In this issue of Chemistry & Biology, Leadlay and coworkers report overproduction of a number of ketoreductase domains from modular polyketide synthases. These discrete enzymes allow the stereochemistry of polyketide ketoreduction to be studied in isolation.

X-ray Diffraction, Electronic Circular Dichroism, and Quantum Mechanics (TD-DFT) Investigations on 4 Dehydroxyaltersolanol A, a Secondary Metabolite from Endophytic Fungus Nigrospora oryzae [PDF]
Background and objectives: A tetrahydro anthraquinone derivative, 4-dehydroxyaltersolanol A, has been obtained from Nigrospora oryzae, which was isolated from Uncaria borneensis Havil as an endophytic fungus.

New Antibacterial Diterpenoids from the South China Sea Soft Coral Klyxum molle
Fifteen new diterpenoids, namely xishaklyanes A-O (1–15), along with three known related ones (16–18), were isolated from the soft coral Klyxum molle collected from Xisha Islands, South China Sea.

Structure and stereochemistry of the base excision repair glycosylase MutY reveal a mechanism similar to retaining glycosidases. [PDF]
MutY adenine glycosylases prevent DNA mutations by excising adenine from promutagenic 8-oxo-7,8-dihydroguanine (OG):A mismatches. Here, we describe structural features of the MutY active site bound to an azaribose transition state analog which indicate a
