Chacon M, Alvarez-Gonzalez G, Gosalvitr P, Berepiki A, Fisher K, Cuellar-Franca R, et al.
Trends Biotechnol . 2024 Dec; 43(3):647-672. PMID: 39638703
Biogenic waste-derived feedstocks for production of fuels, chemicals, and materials offer great potential supporting the transition to net-zero and greater circularity. However, such feedstocks are heterogeneous and subject to geographical...

Gahloth D, Fisher K, Marshall S, Leys D
J Biol Chem . 2024 Jan; 300(2):105653. PMID: 38224946
The UbiD enzyme family of prenylated flavin (prFMN)-dependent reversible decarboxylases is near ubiquitously present in microbes. For some UbiD family members, enzyme activation through prFMNH binding and subsequent oxidative maturation...

Fisher K, Halliwell T, Payne K, Ragala G, Hay S, Rigby S, et al.
J Biol Chem . 2023 Jul; 299(9):105086. PMID: 37495113
Reductive dehalogenases are corrinoid and iron-sulfur cluster-containing enzymes that catalyze the reductive removal of a halogen atom. The oxygen-sensitive and membrane-associated nature of the respiratory reductive dehalogenases has hindered their...

Halliwell T, Fisher K, Rigby S, Leys D
Methods Enzymol . 2022 May; 668:327-347. PMID: 35589200
Reductive dehalogenases provide a possible route to the biotechnological remediation of widespread anthropogenic environmental organohalide contamination. These bacterial enzymes employ cobalamin and an internal electron transfer chain of two [4Fe-4S]...

Gahloth D, Fisher K, Payne K, Cliff M, Levy C, Leys D
J Biol Chem . 2022 Feb; 298(4):101771. PMID: 35218772
The ubiquitous UbiD family of reversible decarboxylases is implicated in a wide range of microbial processes and depends on the prenylated flavin mononucleotide cofactor for catalysis. However, only a handful...

Gautom T, Dheeman D, Levy C, Butterfield T, Alvarez Gonzalez G, Le Roy P, et al.
Nat Commun . 2021 Oct; 12(1):6244. PMID: 34716322
Biological degradation of Polyethylene terephthalate (PET) plastic and assimilation of the corresponding monomers ethylene glycol and terephthalate (TPA) into central metabolism offers an attractive route for bio-based molecular recycling and...

Marshall S, Payne K, Fisher K, Titchiner G, Levy C, Hay S, et al.
Nat Commun . 2021 Aug; 12(1):5065. PMID: 34417452
The widespread UbiD enzyme family utilises the prFMN cofactor to achieve reversible decarboxylation of acrylic and (hetero)aromatic compounds. The reaction with acrylic compounds based on reversible 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition between substrate...

Ortmayer M, Hardy F, Quesne M, Fisher K, Levy C, Heyes D, et al.
JACS Au . 2021 Aug; 1(7):913-918. PMID: 34337604
Nature employs high-energy metal-oxo intermediates embedded within enzyme active sites to perform challenging oxidative transformations with remarkable selectivity. Understanding how different local metal-oxo coordination environments control intermediate reactivity and catalytic...

Payne K, Marshall S, Fisher K, Rigby S, Cliff M, Spiess R, et al.
ACS Catal . 2021 Mar; 11(5):2865-2878. PMID: 33763291
The UbiD family of reversible (de)carboxylases depends on the recently discovered prenylated-FMN (prFMN) cofactor for activity. The model enzyme ferulic acid decarboxylase (Fdc1) decarboxylates unsaturated aliphatic acids via a reversible...

Marshall S, Fisher K, Leys D
Methods Mol Biol . 2021 Mar; 2280:219-227. PMID: 33751438
Prenylated flavin (prFMN) is a modified FMN cofactor, the isoalloxazine is extended by an additional six membered nonaromatic ring. The modification confers azomethine ylide characteristics on the oxidised prFMN, allowing...
