De novo or Salvage? Nucleotide Availability as a Driver of Bacterial Adaptation and Virulence

MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 4, August 2026.
Bacterial pathogens survive in different host environments by switching between making nucleotides by de novo synthesis and scavenging them from the host. This flexibility supports growth and virulence making nucleotide metabolism an attractive therapeutic target.

S‐Adenosyl‐d‐Methionine as a Non‐Physiological Substrate for a Wide Range of SAM‐Dependent Enzymes

ChemBioChem, Volume 27, Issue 14, 29 July 2026.
From methylation and cyclisation to radical chemistry, diverse enzyme classes utilise the non‐canonical cofactor d‐SAM. These findings reveal an unexpected tolerance of SAM‐dependent catalysis towards inversion of the methionine Cα stereocentre. The ability of SAM‐dependent enzymes to accept S‐adenosyl‐d‐methionine [d‐SAM, (SS,RCα)‐SAM] instead of the ...
