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

Cars2‐Mediated Cysteine Catabolism Drives Brown Fat Development and Thermogenesis Through Persulfidating EBF2

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 31, 4 June 2026.
We demonstrate that Cars2, a cysteine catabolic enzyme in mouse iBAT, is critical for cold tolerance and brown adipocyte differentiation. Through its CPERS activity, Cars2 produces CysSSH/H2S to induce EBF2 persulfidation, promoting its interaction with PPARγ and BRG1 to enhance thermogenic gene expression.

Selenium‐Based Nanoplatforms: An Emerging Theranostic Paradigm for Gynecological Cancers

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 33, 15 June 2026.
This reivew summarizes Selenium as a multifunctional anticancer regulator in gynecological cancers. It reduces tumor risk, enhances therapeutic efficacy, and reduces treatment toxicity. Selenium also overcomes chemoraditherapy resistance, improving overall treatment outcomes. ABSTRACT Gynecological cancers present significant therapeutic challenges due

Thiol‐Containing Deep Eutectic Solvents as 2‐In‐1 Cofactor Regeneration Media For Oxidoreductases: Understanding Non‐Innocent Solvents

open access: yesChemCatChem, Volume 18, Issue 11, 15 June 2026.
This study developed dithiothreitol‐based deep eutectic solvents as dual‐function media for NADPH regeneration in biocatalysis. Tailored formulations supported Thermus thermophilus thioredoxin reductase/thioredoxin‐1 and Lactobacillus brevis alcohol dehydrogenase.
