Quantum simulations of the catalytic center (CuB) of cytochrome c oxidase, driving the electron transport system, revealed a crucial role of Val243 in modulation of ligand binding. Val243‐driven interaction facilitates hybridization between CO and Fe orbitals, thus highlighting Val243's impact on electronic structure and ligand dynamics.

Electrostatic potential as a reactivity scoring function in computer‐assisted enzyme engineering
We present a computational metric that quantifies the electrostatic complementarity of enzymes to the charge distribution of substrates at the transition state. Implemented in BindScan, this metric accurately predicts functionally relevant mutations in glycoside hydrolases.

Cloning and thermostability of TaqI endonuclease isoschizomers from Thermus species SM32 and Thermus filiformis Tok6A1 [PDF]
Two TaqI endonuclease (hereafter referred to as TaqI) isoschizomer genes, tsp32IR from Thermus species SM32 of Azores and tfiTok6A1I from T. filiformis Tok6A1 of New Zealand, were cloned in Escherichia coli. The overexpressed enzymes were partly purified and their thermostability was determined.

Production of nuclei and antinuclei in pp and Pb-Pb collisions with ALICE at the LHC
We present first results on the production of nuclei and antinuclei such as (anti)deuterons, (anti)tritons, (anti)3He and (anti)4He in pp collisions at $\s$ = 7 TeV and Pb-Pb collisions at $\sNN$ = 2.76 TeV.

Subthreshold Xi- Production in Collisions of p(3.5 GeV)+Nb [PDF]
Results on the production of the double-strange cascade hyperon $\mathrm{\Xi^-}$ are reported for collisions of p\,(3.5~GeV)\,+\,Nb, studied with the High Acceptance Di-Electron Spectrometer (HADES) at SIS18 at GSI Helmholtzzentrum for Heavy-Ion Research,

Summary Flavodiiron proteins (FDPs) catalyse light‐dependent reduction of oxygen to water in photosynthetic organisms, creating an electron sink on the acceptor side of Photosystem I that protects the photosynthetic apparatus. However, ambiguity about the electron donor(s) remains, and the molecular mechanisms regulating FDP activity have remained ...

Multi-strange baryon production in pp, p-Pb and Pb-Pb collisions measured with ALICE at the LHC
Multi-strange baryons are of particular interest in the understanding of particle production mechanisms, as their high strangeness content makes them susceptible to changes in the hadrochemistry of the colliding systems.

Antimatter production in proton-proton and heavy-ion collisions at ultrarelativistic energies
One of the striking features of particle production at high beam energies is the near equal abundance of matter and antimatter in the central rapidity region. In this paper we study how this symmetry is reached as the beam energy is increased.

Sugar‐sensing swodkoreceptors and swodkocrine signaling
Sugar‐sensing swodkoreceptors that trigger swodkocrine signaling. Abstract Sugars are one of the major metabolites and are essential for nucleic acid synthesis and energy production. In addition, sugars can act as signaling molecules. To study sugar signaling at the systemic level, there is an urgent need to systematically identify sugar‐sensing ...

Thermus thermophilus genome analysis: benefits and implications [PDF]
The genome sequence analysis of Thermus thermophilus HB27, a microorganism with high biotechnological potential, has recently been published. In that report, the chromosomal and the megaplasmid sequence were compared to those of other organisms and discussed on the basis of their physiological and metabolic features.
