In mice, but not in humans, the bone-derived hormone osteocalcin is O-glycosylated, a post-translational modification controlling its half-life in vivo.
Synechocystis switches its redox pools under reducing photomixotrophic conditions from utilizing NAD(H)- to ferredoxin-dependent enzymes and thereby balances its metabolism in a trade-off between energy conservation and chemical driving forces.
Achieving autotrophy in E. coli by introducing a small number of genetic changes crosses a milestone in engineering major metabolic transitions and paves a way for sustainable bio-production from CO2.
