Our latest work on the nitrogenase-like methylthio-alkane reductase is now out @NatureCatalysis doi.org/10.1038/s41929-025-0… We biochemically and structurally characterized the methylthio-alkane reductase, a metalloenzyme that can produce ethylene from organic sulfur compounds.

Methylthio-alkane reductases use nitrogenase metalloclusters for carbon–sulfur bond cleavage

Nature Catalysis - Methylthio-alkane reductases are recently discovered enzymes that can produce methanethiol and small hydrocarbons from methylated sulfur compounds. Now the cryo-EM structure of a...

Finally, someone has solved a real problem with AI! No more having to take a paper in the format for a journal that rejected you, and reformat it for a new journal. Well done!! formatmypaper.com/
