Beyond monofunctionality: structural perspectives on phenol oxidase side activity in a catalase

Structural and biochemical characterization of the extracellular fungal catalase ClCPO uncovers an unexpected phenol oxidase promiscuity. Crystal structures, substrate docking and electron-transfer pathway analysis identify ligand-binding regions and support a working mechanistic model for catalase-associated phenol oxidase activity.

Radiation damage in serial femtosecond crystallography studied in hemoglobin

Protein structures determined by serial femtosecond crystallography are indistinguishable when measured with 3 and 10 fs X-ray pulses, indicating no structural benefit from further shortening the pulse duration under the studied conditions.
