For more than seven decades, phosphorus has represented one of the great paradoxes in the study of the origin of life. This element, indispensable for the existence of living beings as we know them, forms the structural backbone of DNA and RNA, allows cells to store and transfer energy through the molecule adenosine triphosphate (ATP), [β¦]
Researchers from the Manchester Institute of Biotechnology, including Dr. Zachary Birch-Price and professor Anthony Green, have developed a new family of engineered enzymes that can create several different types of chemical bonds used to build complex molecules. This work demonstrates how artificial enzymes can be adapted to carry out a broad range of carbon-carbon (C-C) and carbon-nitrogen (C-N) bond-forming reactions with high selectivity, offering new possibilities for biocatalysis.

It makes sense to think that the T3SS didnβt evolve into the bacterial flagellum, but that the bacterial flagellum shed some protein parts to become a T3SS.Β
