Harnessing a Biocatalyst to Bioremediate the Purification of Alkylglycosides (2023)
Journal Article
Wahart, A. J. C., Dolan, J. P., Anderson, S. D., Cheallaigh, A. N., Staniland, J., Lima, M. A., …Cosgrove, S. C. (2023). Harnessing a Biocatalyst to Bioremediate the Purification of Alkylglycosides. ChemBioChem, Article e202300752. https://doi.org/10.1002/cbic.202300752

Wahart et al. demonstrate the use of an immobilised oxidase enzyme coupled to an extractive amino resin for the bioremediation of a common industrial surfactant. This allows the facile purification of alkyl monoglucosides without the need for high en... Read More about Harnessing a Biocatalyst to Bioremediate the Purification of Alkylglycosides.

Harnessing a Biocatalyst to Bioremediate the Purification of Alkylglycosides. (2023)
Journal Article
Wahart, A. J. C., Dolan, J. P., Anderson, S. D., Cheallaigh, A. N., Staniland, J., Lima, M. A., …Cosgrove, S. C. (in press). Harnessing a Biocatalyst to Bioremediate the Purification of Alkylglycosides. ChemBioChem, Article e202300625. https://doi.org/10.1002/cbic.202300625

As the world moves towards net-zero carbon emissions, the development of sustainable chemical manufacturing processes is essential. Within manufacturing, purification by distillation is often used, however this process is energy intensive and methods...

Virtual screening, identification and in vitro validation of small molecule GDP-mannose dehydrogenase inhibitors † (2023)
Journal Article
Dolan, J., Ahmadipour, S., Wahart, A., Ni Cheallaigh, A., Sari, S., Eurtivong,, C., …Miller, G. (2023). Virtual screening, identification and in vitro validation of small molecule GDP-mannose dehydrogenase inhibitors †. RSC Chemical Biology, 4(11), 865-870. https://doi.org/10.1039/D3CB00126A

Upon undergoing mucoid conversion within the lungs of cystic fibrosis patients, the pathogenic bacterium Pseudomonas aeruginosa synthesises copious quantities of the virulence factor and exopolysaccharide alginate. The enzyme guanosine diphosphate ma... Read More about Virtual screening, identification and in vitro validation of small molecule GDP-mannose dehydrogenase inhibitors †.
