(R)-β-piperonyl-γ-butyrolactones are key building blocks for the synthesis of podophyllotoxin, which have demonstrated remarkable potential in cancer treatment. Baeyer-Villiger monooxygenases (BVMOs)-mediated asymmetric oxidation is a green approach to produce chiral lactones. While several BVMOs were able to oxidize the corresponding cyclobutanone, most BVMOs gave the (S) enantiomer while Cyclohexanone monooxygenase (CHMO) from Brevibacterium sp.

A novel bis-γ-butyrolactone grifolamine A (), the first γ-butyrolactone dimer from nature, together with three known γ-butyrolactones (-), was isolated from the byproduct from polysaccharides preparation process. The structure and stereochemistry of grifolamine A were elucidated by extensive spectroscopic analysis combined with quantum chemical calculation. The biosynthetic origin of compound , as well as - was proposed.

Prostate cancer (PCa) ranks as one of the most commonly diagnosed malignancies worldwide. Toxicity, lack of clinical efficacy, and development of resistance phenotypes are the main challenges in the control of prostate malignancies. Notably, castration-resistance prostate cancer (CRPCa) is a highly aggressive and metastatic phenotype of the disease with a poor prognosis and very limited therapeutic options.

Hookworm is one type of soil-transmitted helminth, which could exert an anti-inflammatory effect in human or animal host, which provides a beneficial possibility for the discovery of inflammatory-related disease interventions. The identification of hookworm-derived anti-inflammatory molecules is urgently needed for future translational research. The emergence of metabolomics has become a powerful approach to comprehensively characterize metabolic alterations in recent times.

Three enzymatic routes toward γ-hydroxy-α-amino acids by tandem aldol addition-transamination one-pot two-step reactions are reported. The approaches feature an enantioselective aldol addition of pyruvate to various nonaromatic aldehydes catalyzed by --hydroxybenzylidene pyruvate hydratase-aldolase (HBPA) from . This affords chiral 4-hydroxy-2-oxo acids, which were subsequently enantioselectively aminated using -selective transaminases.
