Summary: Recent study uncovers a mechanism by which the organic cofactor PLP activates molecular oxygen for oxidation reactions, particularly in the desaturation or hydroxylation of arginine. The proposed mechanism suggests the precise positioning of a water molecule in the active site plays a crucial role in controlling the final reaction outcome. This mechanism provides a unified framework to understand the activation of oxygen by PLP-dependent enzymes and elucidates a shared mechanistic pathway and intertwined evolutionary history for arginine desaturases and hydroxylases.

Summary: Vascular endothelial growth factors (VEGFs) are essential regulators for blood and lymphatic vessels, interacting with neuropilins and tyrosine kinase receptors. The selectivity of neuropilins and VEGF receptors in binding to VEGF proteins affects their physiological roles. Studies have shown that conformational preferences of VEGF-derived peptides beyond the C-terminal arginine contribute to the ligand selectivity of neuropilins. These findings have implications for designing selective antagonists of neuropilin functions.

Summary: This work presents studies on the photochemical transformations of TU and Cys with the addition of Cu(II) or Fe(III) ions. The results show that the oxidation rate of the thiols increases significantly when Cu(II) or Fe(III) ions are added to the system. It has also been found that TU and Cys can form stable complex compounds with the studied metal ions. The oxidation rates of the thiols are found to depend on the radiation intensity and emission spectrum of the irradiation sources.

Summary: The structure and electrochemical properties of zinc(II) complexes with a face-capping ligand have been investigated, revealing the effect of the ligand on bound semiquinonate (SQ) radicals. The substitution pattern of the SQ ring plays a crucial role in determining the fate of the bound SQ radicals. Additionally, the protective pocket formed by the ligand's phenyl substituents is unable to prevent decomposition of SQ radicals with minimal steric bulk, suggesting that substitution of the SQ ring is the main contributor to their stabilization.

Summary: In this article, the synthesis and characterization of copper, nickel, and palladium complexes bound by bidentate ligands derived from ortho-phenylenediamine are described. The complexes contain tunable H-bond donors and their crystal structures reveal intramolecular H-bonding interactions between the ligand scaffolds. Variations in the coordination sphere led to the isolation of the complexes in square-planar or twisted pseudo-tetrahedral geometries. Structural analysis showed that intramolecular H-bonding interactions can be altered by disrupting the bonds between countercations, solvent of crystallization, and ligand scaffold, resulting in changes in the geometry of the complexes. DFT calculations confirmed that Cu complexes prefer twisted geometries while Ni and Pd complexes favor square-planar geometries.
