Highly accurate protein structure prediction with AlphaFold

John Jumper et al.

Summary: Proteins are essential for life, and accurate prediction of their structures is a crucial research problem. Current experimental methods are time-consuming, highlighting the need for accurate computational approaches to address the gap in structural coverage. Despite recent progress, existing methods fall short of atomic accuracy in protein structure prediction.

Generation of Pseudomonas putida KT2440 Strains with Efficient Utilization of Xylose and Galactose via Adaptive Laboratory Evolution

Hyun Gyu Lim et al.

Summary: The study utilized Adaptive Laboratory Evolution (ALE) to optimize engineered Pseudomonas putida KT2440 strains with heterologous gene expression for improved utilization of xylose and galactose. Through whole-genome sequencing, transcriptomic analysis, and growth screens, key genes were identified to play significant roles in xylose and galactose growth conditions. The evolved strains successfully produced indigoidine from xylose and galactose, showing potential for broad applications in biomass-utilizing bioprocesses.

Evolutionary engineering reveals amino acid substitutions in Ato2 and Ato3 that allow improved growth of Saccharomyces cerevisiae on lactic acid

Nicolo Baldi et al.

Summary: This study identified two novel lactic acid transport proteins through evolution, Ato2 and Ato3, with mutations leading to improved lactic acid transport. It was found that the mutations widened the narrowest hydrophobic constriction of the anion channel, possibly enhancing lactic acid transport efficiency.
