Enhancing Adeno‐Associated Virus 2 Capsid Engineering Through Co‐Evolutionary Coupling

open access: yesBiotechnology and Bioengineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Adeno‐associated virus (AAV) has emerged as a leading platform for gene therapy. However, to unlock the full potential, their manufacturing yields, stability, and efficacy must all be improved. Rational design is limited by poor predictability and the potential impact of mutations on multiple important vector properties.

Transketolase promotes colorectal cancer metastasis through regulating AKT phosphorylation

open access: yesCell Death and Disease, 2022
Transketolase (TKT) which is an important metabolic enzyme in the pentose phosphate pathway (PPP) participates in maintaining ribose 5-phosphate levels. TKT is necessary for maintaining cell growth.

Proteo‐transcriptomic insights into the venom composition of the ectoparasitoid Eupelmus urozonus

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Integrated venom‐gland transcriptomics and venom proteomics of Eupelmus urozonus identified 316 venom proteins, including 75 secreted candidates, revealing diverse hydrolases, proteases/inhibitors and many uncharacterized effectors. Abstract BACKGROUND Ectoparasitoid venoms are ‘cocktails’ of bioactive molecules injected during oviposition to paralyze ...

Characterisation of the structural stability of transketolase under biocatalytically relevant conditions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The enzyme transketolase (TK; E.C. 2.2.1.1) from Escherichia coli occupies a pivotal place in metabolic regulation. TK catalyses the interconversion of sugars by transferring a two-carbon ketol unit from a ketose donor substrate to an aldolase acceptor ...

Phenotypic characterization of Arabidopsis thaliana mutants that alleviate root growth defects in a vitamin B6 biosynthesis mutant

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Vitamin B6 is a critical molecule for plant metabolism and development. Rsr4‐1, a loss‐of‐function mutant in a vitamin B6 biosynthesis gene, has a distinct short root phenotype. Here we describe five novel suppressor mutants with an rsr4‐1 background that have normalized root growth and distinct phenotypic and molecular characteristics, representing a ...
