Article Synopsis
- The COVID-19 pandemic highlighted numerous social issues, including widespread myths about vaccinations related to pregnancy, such as risks of abortion and infertility, despite no scientific basis for these claims.
- The study examined the vaccination status of 747 pregnant women and identified that 5.4% did not receive the first dose, 19% were pending the second dose, and none had received a booster, largely due to fears of abortion and vaccine side effects.
- The findings suggested a strong link between vaccination acceptance and factors like education and employment, indicating a need for better education on vaccine benefits to improve vaccination rates among pregnant women.
Heme enzymes are the most prominent category of iron-containing metalloenzymes with the capability of catalyzing an astonishingly wide range of reactions like epoxidation, hydroxylation, demethylation, desaturation, reduction, sulfoxidation, and decarboxylation. Various enzymes in this category are P450s, heme peroxidases, catalases, myoglobin, cytochrome C, and others. Besides this, the natural promiscuity and amenability of these enzymes to protein engineering and evolution have also added several non-native reactions such as C-H, N-H, S-H insertions, cyclopropanation, and other industrially important reactions to their capabilities.
