DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2020.02.126

Abstract: Alginate is a family of industrially important linear polymers consisting of β-D-mannuronic acid (M) and its C-5 epimer α-L-guluronic acid (G). The function of alginate is closely related to the ratio of M/G. Mannuronan C-5… read more here.

DOI: 10.1021/acs.biochem.5c00172

Abstract: Bacteria and fungi use nonribosomal peptide synthetases (NRPSs) to generate secondary metabolites called nonribosomal peptides (NRPs). A common feature of NRPs is the incorporation of D-stereocenter amino acids, which enhance chemical functionality and confer resistance… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s42003-025-08987-9

Abstract: In Halobacterium salinarum, halophilic archaea that grow in saturated salt solutions, glycoproteins are modified by an N-linked tetrasaccharide that includes iduronic acid (IdoA). This represents the only known example of IdoA, a sugar better known… read more here.

DOI: 10.1042/bsr20180223

Abstract: NAD(P)H-hydrate epimerase (EC 5.1.99.6) is known to help repair NAD(P)H hydrates (NAD(P)HX), which are damage products existing as R and S epimers. The S epimer is reconverted to NAD(P)H by a dehydratase; the epimerase facilitates… read more here.
