Nucleosides and its derivatives are essential chemicals with extensive applications in the food, agricultural, and pharmaceutical industries. Chemical synthesis of these compounds often faces problems such as harsh reaction conditions and environmental pollution, whereas microbial synthesis provides a promising and sustainable alternative. This review discusses recent advances in the biosynthesis of nucleosides and their derivatives.

- The GPx1 gene plays a crucial role in maintaining cellular redox balance, and changes in its expression are associated with cancer progression.
- Researchers used computational tools to identify harmful non-synonymous single nucleotide polymorphisms (nsSNPs) in the GPx1 gene that could affect the enzyme's structure and function.
- The final analysis highlighted three specific mutations that showed reduced binding and stability when interacting with TRAF2, suggesting their potential connection to cancer development.
The Nipah virus (NPV) is a highly lethal virus, known for its significant fatality rate. The virus initially originated in Malaysia in 1998 and later led to outbreaks in nearby countries such as Bangladesh, Singapore, and India. Currently, there are no specific vaccines available for this virus.
