Published in 2024 at "Protein Science"

DOI: 10.1002/pro.4969

Abstract: The peptidoglycan biosynthesis pathway plays a vital role in bacterial cells, and facilitates peptidoglycan layer formation, a fundamental structural component of the bacterial cell wall. The enzymes in this pathway are candidates for antibiotic development,… read more here.

Published in 2019 at "International journal of biological macromolecules"

DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2018.12.124

Abstract: Peptidoglycan (PG) is the main constituent of the bacterial cell wall. The enzyme UDP‑N‑acetylglucosamine enolpyruvyl transferase (MurA) catalyzes the transfer of enolpyruvate from phosphoenolpyruvate to uridinediphospho‑N‑acetylglucosamine, which is the first committed step of PG biosynthesis.… read more here.

Published in 2024 at "IEEE Access"

DOI: 10.1109/access.2024.3486567

Abstract: Mura defects, which manifest as irregularities in brightness and color on display screens, present persistent challenges for Thin Film Transistor Liquid Crystal Display (TFT-LCD) manufacturers. While traditional methods effectively detect significant abnormalities in vertical-line inspections,… read more here.

Published in 2022 at "Pharmaceuticals"

DOI: 10.3390/ph15121484

Abstract: Heterocyclic electrophiles as small covalent fragments showed promising inhibitory activity on the antibacterial target MurA (UDP-N-acetylglucosamine 1-carboxyvinyltransferase, EC:2.5.1.7). Here, we report the second generation of heterocyclic electrophiles: the quaternized analogue of the heterocyclic covalent fragment… read more here.
