Yu Y, Jeffreys L, Poddar H, Hill A, Johannissen L, Dai F, et al.
FEBS J . 2024 Dec; 292(3):635-652. PMID: 39718193
Photoreceptors control cellular processes in response to light. Most photoreceptors sense blue or red light, but the recent discovery of the cobalamin-dependent photoreceptor, CarH, has expanded the wavelength range of...

Hanko E, Robinson C, Bhanot S, Jervis A, Scrutton N
Microb Cell Fact . 2024 Nov; 23(1):312. PMID: 39558341
Background: Flavonoids are a structurally diverse group of secondary metabolites, predominantly produced by plants, which include a range of compounds with pharmacological importance. Pinocembrin is a key branch point intermediate...

Tan J, Hu Q, Scrutton N
Microb Cell Fact . 2024 Oct; 23(1):279. PMID: 39415159
Background: Achieving cost-competitiveness remains challenging for industrial biomanufacturing. With whole-cell biocatalysis, inefficiency presents when individual cells vary in their production levels. The problem exacerbates when the basis for such production...
