Copper induces cell death by targeting lipoylated TCA cycle proteins

Peter Tsvetkov et al.

Summary: Copper is an essential cofactor for all organisms, but excessive copper can lead to cell death. We found that copper-dependent cell death mechanism is different from known mechanisms, and it is related to mitochondrial respiration. Copper directly binds to lipoylated components of the tricarboxylic acid cycle, causing protein aggregation and loss of iron-sulfur cluster proteins, ultimately leading to cell death.

Hybrid Catalysts from Copper Biosorbing Bacterial Strains and Their Recycling for Catalytic Application in the Asymmetric Addition Reaction of B2(pin)2 on α,β-Unsaturated Chalcones

Raffaella Gandolfi et al.

Summary: The recycling of heavy metal contaminants from wastewater as a source of valuable products perfectly fits with the principles of a Circular Economy system. Biosorption using EPSs produced by bacterial cells is a sustainable and efficient method for removing metal cations from wastewater. Different strains of bacteria were tested for their ability to sequester copper, and the copper chelates obtained were successfully used as catalysts in the synthesis of pharmaceutical intermediates.

In vitro and in vivo evaluation of probiotic potential and safety assessment of Bacillus coagulans SKB LAB-19 (MCC 0554) in humans and animal healthcare

Khushal Chaudhari et al.

Summary: The study investigated the probiotic characteristics of the Bacillus coagulans strain SKB LAB-19, including enzyme production, antimicrobial properties, tolerance to bile salt and gastric pH, temperature stability, and safety assessment. The results showed that SKB LAB-19 produced eight potential enzymes, exhibited effective antimicrobial activity, and was tolerant to bile salt and gastric pH. It showed stability at temperatures between 40-90°C and was non-toxic to cells. SKB LAB-19 demonstrated promising results as a probiotic and anti-diarrheal agent, improving intestinal damage and exhibiting immunomodulatory effects.
