Article Synopsis
- L-serine biosynthesis starts with D-3-phosphoglycerate being converted into 3-phosphohydroxypyruvate by the enzyme SerA, which can also produce D-2-hydroxyglutarate (D-2-HGA) from 2-ketoglutarate.
- Recent discoveries have identified bacterial enzymes called D2HGDHs that convert D-2-HGA back to 2-ketoglutarate; however, little is known about these enzymes in certain bacterial families.
- Two novel D2HGDHs were characterized, revealing their substrate specificity, optimal pH conditions, and sensitivity to metal ions, suggesting their potential use in metabolic engineering for creating microbes with specific traits.
Hydrothermal reaction of a macrocyclic inorganic POM cavitand Li(NH)H[PWO] with [Pt(HO)(OH)] results in coordination of up to six {Pt(HO)(OH)} fragments to the internal surface of the polyoxoanion. The product was isolated as K(NH)H[{Pt(OH)(HO)}PWO]·79HO () and characterized by multiple techniques in the solid state (SCXRD, XRPD, XPS, FTIR, and TGA) and in solution (NMR, ESI-MS, and HPLC-ICP-AES). Electrochemical properties were studied both in solution and as components of the paste electrode.
