The conversion of diluted CO₂ into high-energy fuels is increasingly central to renewable energy research. This study investigates the efficacy of a Gd₂NiMnO₆ dendritic nanofibrous (DNF) photocatalyst in transforming carbon dioxide to methane through photoreduction. Gd₂NiMnO₆ DNF was found to provide active adsorption sites and control the strand dimensions for metal groups, facilitating the chemical absorption of CO₂.

Chondroitin sulfate (CS) is a structurally complex anionic polysaccharide widely used in medical, cosmetic and food applications. Enzymatic catalysis is an important strategy for synthesizing CS with uniform chain lengths and well-defined structures. However, the industrial application of glycosyltransferases is hindered by limitations such as low expression yields, poor stability, and challenges in reuse.

α-Amylases, constituting a significant share of the enzyme market, are mainly synthesized by the genus Bacillus. Enzymes tailored for specific industrial applications are needed to meet the growing demand across a range of industries, and thus finding new amylases and optimizing the ones that already exist are extremely important. This study reports the successful expression, characterization and immobilization of P.

Verona-integron-metallo-β-lactamase (VIM-2) is one of the most widespread class B β-lactamase responsible for β-lactam resistance. Although active-site residues help in metal binding, the residues nearing the active-site possess functional importance. Here, to decipher the role of such residues in the activity and stability of VIM-2, the residues E146, D182, N210, S207, and D213 were selected through in-silico analyses and substituted with alanine using site-directed mutagenesis.

Based on the inhibitory potencies from earlier reported tetrazole thioether analogs, we now describe the synthesis and inhibition of pyrazole-based inhibitors of -succinyl-l,l-2,6-diaminopimelic acid desuccinylase (DapE) from (DapE). The most potent pyrazole analog bears an aminopyridine amide with an IC of 17.9 ± 8.
