Specificity and structural characterization of the PDZ domain from DegS, an extracytoplasmic E. coli protease
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, February 2)DegS is a membrane-bound bacterial protease that is involved in the extracytoplasmic-stress response. The C-terminal domain has limited homology to PDZ domains and was thought to be involved in regulation or substrate ... -
Photocatalysis in a New Light: A Biohybrid Approach for Improved Reactivity with Tunable, Low-Energy Light Excitation
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2024-09)Since the advent of photoredox catalysis, much thought has been devoted to the development of exciting reaction modalities and the catalysts which perform these reactions. Less thought has been placed into the specific ... -
