Adv Protein Chem Struct Biol. 2026;154:357-382. doi: 10.1016/bs.apcsb.2026.08.008. Epub 2026 Sep 11. ABSTRACT The application of alternative proteins and their advanced techniques in various proteins including microbial, algal, plant-based and precision-fermented are highly used as alternative proteins. The cultivated meat approaches have intensified the need for optimized approaches in the process of enzymes. Enzyme kinetics…

ABSTRACT The ubiquitin-proteasome system (UPS) is a master regulator of protein homeostasis during skeletal muscle development, yet the upstream molecular sensors that couple UPS activity to the myogenic program remain incompletely understood. Here, we identify ANKRD9 (Ankyrin Repeat Domain 9) as a novel pro-myogenic…

J Agric Food Chem. 2026 Sep 9;74(35):27346-27370. doi: 10.1021/acs.jafc.6c08020. ABSTRACT α-L-Rhamnosidase is a glycoside hydrolase (GH) that cleaves α-L-rhamnosidic bonds in diverse natural substrates, including oligosaccharides, glycoproteins, flavonoids, and glycolipids that contain terminal L-rhamnose. Owing to its broad substrate specificity, it has attracted growing interest in biotechnology, food processing, pharmaceuticals, and natural product modification. Fungal…

Harmful Algae. 2026 Nov;159:103210. doi: 10.1016/j.hal.2026.103210. Epub 2026 Aug 29. ABSTRACT As a dormant stage of the dinoflagellate life cycle, resting cysts play crucial ecological roles, particularly for bloom-forming species, as supported by abundant evidence. They can remain viable in marine sediments for decades to centuries and directly regulate seasonal population dynamics and initiate HABs…

Nat Commun. 2026 Jul 25;17(1):9044. doi: 10.1038/s41467-026-75811-1. ABSTRACT Herbicides in combination with genetically modified herbicide-resistant crops have revolutionized modern weed management, increased crop yields, and facilitated farming practices. However, rapid evolution of herbicide-resistant weeds necessitates new resistance traits to sustain control efficacy. Here, we introduce a terminal carboxyl anchoring mechanism-inspired approach for precise discovery of…

J Struct Biol X. 2026 Jul 31;14:100156. doi: 10.1016/j.yjsbx.2026.100156. eCollection 2026 Dec. ABSTRACT Allosteric regulation in biosynthetic L-threonine deaminase (BTD) has long been attributed to effector-induced conformational changes. Here, we identify a trans-interface coupling mechanism that regulates the active site architecture of EcIlvA, the BTD homolog of Escherichia coli. Starting from a low-activity, regulatory-domain-truncated variant…

ABSTRACT Lignin is one of the most abundant yet recalcitrant biopolymers in nature, and its inefficient depolymerization remains a major bottleneck in lignocellulosic biomass valorization and sustainable biorefinery development. Although fungal oxidative enzymes have emerged as promising biocatalysts for lignin degradation, current knowledge…
