Structure and identification of the native PLP synthase complex from Methanosarcina acetivorans lysate by Angela Agnew, Ethan Humm, Kang Zhou, Robert P. Gunsalus, Z. Hong Zhou

“…There is a paucity of known enzyme structures from organisms of this domain, and this is often exacerbated by characteristically difficult growth conditions and a lack of readily available molecular biology toolkits to study proteins in archaeal cells. As a result, there is a gap in knowledge concerning the mechanisms governing archaeal protein behavior and their impacts on both the environment and human health; case in point, the synthesis of the widely utilized cofactor pyridoxal 5′-phosphate (PLP; a vitamer of vitamin B6, which humans cannot produce). …”

Localized Drug Delivery in Different Gastrointestinal Cancers: Navigating Challenges and Advancing Nanotechnological Solutions by Hasan AM, Cavalu S, Kira AY, Hamad RS, Abdel-Reheim MA, Elmorsy EA, El-kott AF, Morsy K, AlSheri AS, Negm S, Saber S

“…However, the localized delivery via oral administration faces many challenges related to the complex structure of GIT (varied pH levels and transit times) as well as the harsh environment within tumor cells (hypoxia, efflux pumps, and acidity). To overcome these obstacles, nano-drug delivery systems (NDDs) have been designed and proved their potential by exploiting these challenges in favor of offering a specific delivery to the desired target. …”
