Enzymatic Performance of < em > Aspergillus oryzae < /em > α-Amylase in the Presence of Organic Solvents: Activity, Stability, and Bioinformatic Studies
In this study, the enzymatic performance of Aspergillus oryzae α-amylase (Taka-amylase) in various organic solvents both experimentally and computationally was investigated. The results demonstrated that ethanol and ether sustain Taka-amylase activity up to 20% to 25% of the organic solvents, with ether providing twice the stability of ethanol. Molecular dynamics simulations further revealed that Taka-amylase has a more stable structure in ether and ethanol relative to other organic solvents. In addition, the analysis showed that the loop located near the active site in the AB-domain is a vulnerable site for enzyme destab...

Computer-Assisted Discovery of < em > Salvia fruticosa < /em > Compounds With Schistosomicidal Activity
This study focuses on identifying potential antischistosomal compounds from the plant Salvia fruticosa. We virtually screened a library of 163 S fruticosa compounds by docking against Schistosoma mansoni sulfotransferase (SmSULT) using the PyRx software. Docking scores ranged from -4.7 to -9.3 kcal/mol. Compounds with binding affinity of -7.6 or stronger were subjected to drug-likeness assessments using the DataWarrior software. We also employed the PAINS removal tool to filter off false-positive results. Twelve compounds passed the drug-likeness screen, and these were subjected to in silico toxicity predictions to determi...
