The ROK kinase N-acetylglucosamine kinase uses a sequential random enzyme mechanism with successive conformational changes upon each substrate binding.
(Elsevier / American Society for Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, 16 February 2023)N-acetyl-d-glucosamine (GlcNAc) is a major component of bacterial cell walls. Many organisms recycle GlcNAc from the cell wall or metabolize environmental GlcNAc. The first step in GlcNAc metabolism is phosphorylation to ... -
The distribution of coastal fish eDNA sequences in the Anthropocene
(Wiley, 9 May 2023)Aim Coastal fishes have a fundamental role in marine ecosystem functioning and contributions to people, but face increasing threats due to climate change, habitat degradation and overexploitation. The extent to which human ... -

A species-level trait dataset of bats in Europe and beyond
(Nature Research, 3 May 2023)Knowledge of species' functional traits is essential for understanding biodiversity patterns, predicting the impacts of global environmental changes, and assessing the efficiency of conservation measures. Bats are major ... -
Cross-species extrapolation of biological data to guide the environmental safety assessment of pharmaceuticals - The state of the art and future priorities
(Wiley, 17 April 2023)The extrapolation of biological data across species is a key aspect of biomedical research and drug development. In this context, comparative biology considerations are applied with the goal of understanding human disease ...
