Parallel Strategy Increases the Thermostability and Activity of Glutamate Decarboxylase
Glutamate decarboxylase (GAD; EC 4.1.1.15) is a unique pyridoxal 5-phosphate (PLP)-dependent enzyme that specifically catalyzes the decarboxylation of L-glutamic acid to produce γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA), which exhibits several well-known ...

A thermostable glucoamylase from a thermophilic Bacillus sp.: characterization and thermostability
A thermostable glucoamylase (GA) showed optimum activity at 70 degrees C and pH 5.0. It was highly stable at pH 7.0. The half-life of the enzyme at pH 7.0 was 13, 8, and 3 h 40 min at 60, 65, and 70 degrees C respectively. The residual activity of the enzyme sample incubated at 5 psi (110 degrees C) for 30 min was about 32% of the control set ...

Amphiphilic chloroazobenzenes, bearing different amino acids as end groups alanine, phenylalanine, and valine, exhibit excellent photoisomerizations. Varying structures of three amino acid groups participate in supramolecular formations and therefore photoinduced morphological transformations via adjusting intermolecular interactions. These interaction

Stereoselective Biotransformation: Transfer of Learning to Advance Drug Metabolism and Biocatalysis
Understanding stereoselective biotransformations has implications for predicting drug disposition and response and may also inspire novel biocatalytic and biomimetic strategies to address challenges in metabolite and API synthesis. ABSTRACT Chirality is an important determinant of drug action, as enantiomers can exhibit markedly different ...

Cryo-EM structure of a thermostable bacterial nanocompartment
Protein nanocompartments are widespread in bacteria and archaea, but their functions are not yet well understood. Here, the cryo-EM structure of a nanocompartment from the thermophilic bacterium Thermotoga maritima is reported at 2.0 Å resolution.

An mRNA‐liposome vaccine via dissolving microneedles (ML‐DMN) enables efficient skin‐targeted delivery while preserving mRNA integrity and allowing sustained antigen expression. Unlike intramuscular (IM) injection, ML‐DMN engages skin‐resident immune cells, activates antigen‐presenting cells (APCs), and induces strong T cell and cytokine responses at ...
