The spinach RNA aptamer as a characterization tool for synthetic biology [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Characterization of genetic control elements is essential for the predictable engineering of synthetic biology systems. The current standard for in vivo characterization of control elements is through the use of fluorescent reporter proteins such as ...

Multilevel Regulation of Peptidoglycan Dynamics in Bacteria: From Molecular Mechanisms to Applied Perspectives

open access: yesBiomolecules
Peptidoglycan, a crucial constituent of the bacterial cell envelope, is essential for maintaining cellular integrity and morphology. Elucidating the regulatory processes that coordinate its biosynthesis and turnover not only addresses a fundamental ...

Genome-scale model of C. autoethanogenum reveals optimal bioprocess conditions for high-value chemical production from carbon monoxide

open access: yesEngineering Biology, 2019
Clostridium autoethanogenum is an industrial microbe used for the commercial-scale production of ethanol from carbon monoxide. While significant progress has been made in the attempted diversification of this bioprocess, further improvements are ...

Regulation of protein secretion through chemical regulation of endoplasmic reticulum retention signal cleavage

open access: yesNature Communications, 2022
Secreted proteins, such as hormones or cytokines, are key mediators in multicellular organisms. Here the authors present two genetically encoded orthogonal regulatory secretion systems that enables inducible protein release and construction of logic ...

Design and analysis strategies for robust microbiome ageing research

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The gut microbiome changes with age and associates with age‐related morbidity and mortality, establishing it as a potential biomarker and intervention target for ageing. Realising this potential requires methodological rigour, yet distinguishing biological signals from methodological artefacts remains challenging across cohorts. This review provides an

A Method for Fast, High-Precision Characterization of Synthetic Biology Devices [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Engineering biological systems with predictable behavior is a foundational goal of synthetic biology. To accomplish this, it is important to accurately characterize the behavior of biological devices.

All-in-One photo-biocatalysis system for sustainable chemical transformations

open access: yesNature Communications
Enzyme-photo-coupled systems (EPCSs) offer a green strategy for producing high-value chemicals, but significant gaps remain in comparison to natural photosynthetic systems.

Reconstructing enzyme evolution by protein engineering

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Natural enzyme evolution can be retraced by protein engineering methods such as directed evolution, rational design, and ancestral sequence reconstruction. These approaches reveal how enzymes emerged from ligand‐binding scaffolds, developed varying substrate preferences, formed oligomeric complexes, adapted to environmental changes, and evolved novel ...

Conserved binding mode but diverse interfaces of MreC‐PBP2 interactions

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The crystal structure of abMreC reveals a conserved two β‐barrel architecture and provides structural insights into its role within the bacterial elongasome. The abMreC–abPBP2 complex model identifies the molecular basis of MreC‐mediated PBP2 recognition, contributing to the regulation of peptidoglycan synthesis.
