A “jack-of-all-trades” enzyme found in American pokeweed: Chinese scientists discover a promiscuous sugar-stitching tool for natural products
2+ day, 7+ hour ago (187+ words) Credit: Zhang Yi, Wang Jinxin, Zhu Yiqing, et al Then came the functional audition: testing each recombinant protein against three triterpene substrates (phytolaccagenin, jaligonic acid, and bayogenin) with UDP-glucose. Only one enzyme passed: PamUGT, converting all three substrates at 30%–40%. Mass…...

OrgAIcat predicts enantioselectivity in organocatalysis using literature data and rapidly optimizes reactions
4+ day, 3+ hour ago (1102+ words) Published chemical literature has accumulated a wealth of reaction data, but this data comes from diverse sources, is unevenly distributed, and is clearly biased towards highly selective "successful experiments." Can such literature data be used for reliable machine learning modeling…...
Dr Darren Fayne, DCU School of Chemical Sciences | Dublin City University
5+ day, 15+ hour ago (390+ words) My research uses computation to help identify the design of potential new drugs. I focus on figuring out how potential drugs could interact with proteins. Think of proteins as tiny machines running the body. We have around 20,000 of them, and…...

New Mixed-Ligand Metal Complexes Show Promise as Antibiotics, Antioxidants
1+ week, 2+ day ago (55+ words) Chemists in Nigeria have unveiled a new family of metal complexes that appear to do several jobs at once: killing bacteria and fungi, mopping up damaging free radicals, slicing through DNA in ways that could inspire future drugs, and even…...
Evolutionary mystery revealed by structures of a key enzyme in the synthesis of glycolipids
2+ week, 3+ day ago (24+ words) Structures of a protein used to make crucial sugar-carrying lipids uncover a surprising reaction mechanism and a built-in brake that emerged during primate evolution....
