Commun Chem . 2024 Aug; 7(1):179. PMID: 39138288
Botulinum neurotoxins (BoNTs) are the most potent toxins known and are used to treat an increasing number of medical disorders. All BoNTs are naturally co-expressed with a protective partner protein...

Song H, Lee P, Kim J, Kim J, Lee S, Kim H, et al.
Front Bioeng Biotechnol . 2022 Apr; 10:830712. PMID: 35402392
Several regiospecific enantiomers of hydroxy-()-equol (HE) were enzymatically synthesized from daidzein and genistein using consecutive reduction (four daidzein-to-equol-converting reductases) and oxidation (4-hydroxyphenylacetate 3-monooxygenase, HpaBC). Despite the natural occurrence of several...

Song H, Lee P, Kim H, Lee U, Lee S, Kim J, et al.
Microorganisms . 2021 Sep; 9(9). PMID: 34576760
Tyrosinase is generally known as a melanin-forming enzyme, facilitating monooxygenation of phenols, oxidation of catechols into quinones, and finally generating biological melanin. As a homologous form of tyrosinase in plants,...

Science . 2021 Feb; 371(6531):803-810. PMID: 33602850
Although bespoke, sequence-specific proteases have the potential to advance biotechnology and medicine, generation of proteases with tailor-made cleavage specificities remains a major challenge. We developed a phage-assisted protease evolution system...
