M1 alanyl aminopeptidase is chemically validated as an attractive antimalarial target by confirming the on-target activity of a novel selective inhibitor using chemoproteomics and metabolomics-based drug target deconvolution approaches.
The first structural and biochemical study of the role of the ATP-cone in anaerobic ribonucleotide reductases shows that dATP allosterically prevents transfer of a glycyl radical to the substrate.
Bacterial exonuclease III exhibits underestimated enzymatic activities on single-stranded DNA, which may redefine its roles in relevant biological processes and biosensor development.
