The African swine fever virus (ASFV) type II topoisomerase (Topo II), pP1192R, is the only known Topo II expressed by mammalian viruses and is essential for ASFV replication in the host cytoplasm. Herein, we report the structures of pP1192R in various enzymatic stages using both X-ray crystallography and single-particle cryo-electron microscopy. Our data structurally define the pP1192R-modulated DNA topology changes. By presenting the A2+-like metal ion at the pre-cleavage site, the pP1192R-DNA-m-AMSA complex structure provides support for the classical two-metal mechanism in Topo II-mediated DNA cleavage and a better explanation for nucleophile formation. The unique inhibitor selectivity of pP1192R and the difunctional mechanism of pP1192R inhibition by m-AMSA highlight the specificity of viral Topo II in the poison binding site. Altogether, this study provides the information applicable to the development of a pP1192R-targeting anti-ASFV strategy.

Article Synopsis
- The study explores sulfate radical-based advanced oxidation processes (SR-AOPs), highlighting their low energy requirements and high efficiency for pollutant breakdown, particularly focusing on peroxomonosulfate (PMS) activation.
- A new catalyst, a CoFe PBA/g-CN heterojunction, was created by combining a metal-organic framework with g-CN nanosheets, achieving notable improvements in PMS activation efficiency, outperforming individual components significantly.
- The CoFe PBA/g-CN heterojunction is stable in degrading oxytetracycline and demonstrates a promising mechanism involving multiple factors for effective environmental remediation.

Peroxynitrite (ONOO) is one of the most significant reactive oxygen species (ROS) in living cells. Zn in living cells plays an essential part in different physiological processes. The abnormal concentration of ONOO and Zn in living cells are related to many kinds of diseases, such as anemia, epilepsy, diarrhea, Alzheimer's disease, and so on.

In this paper, a new Pd metal organic framework (PdMOF) surface molecularly imprinted polyaniline nanocatalytic probe (PdMOF@MIP) with dual functions of recognition and catalysis was synthesized. It is found that the PdMOF@MIP nanoprobe can not only identify OTC but also catalyze the new nanoreaction of NaHPO-HAuCl to generate gold nanoparticles (AuNPs), and the generated AuNPs could be traced by surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS). When OTC specifically binds to PdMOF@MIP to generate PdMOF@MIP-OTC conjugate, its catalytic effect is weakened and the analytical signal is reduced linaerly.
