AB  - The ambigols are cyanobacterial natural products characterized by three polychlorinated aromatic building blocks connected by biaryl and biaryl ether bridges. All ambigols known to date possess promising biological activities. Most significantly, ambigol A was reported to have antibacterial activity against Gram-positive bacteria, such as Bacillus megaterium and B. subtilis. We established a diverse compound library for in-depth biological evaluation building on our previous bio- and total synthetic research on this natural product family. To explore the antimicrobial potential in detail and to determine initial structure–activity relationships of this product class, a large set of dimeric and trimeric compounds were screened against selected bacterial and Candida target strains. Our results reveal exceptional antibiotic activity of the ambigols, especially against challenging clinical isolates.

AB  - Severe drawbacks associated with the topical use of depigmenting agents in treatments of skin hyperigmentations impose a great demand for novel, effective, and safe melanogenesis inhibitors. Edible and medicinal mushrooms, known for numerous health-promoting properties, represent a rich reservoir of anti-melanogenic compounds, with the potential to be applied in preventing excessive skin pigmentation. Herein, using zebrafish (Danio rerio) as a preclinical animal model, we have demonstrated that ethanol extract of Laetiporus sulphureus (LSE) and Agaricus silvaticus (ASE) are not toxic at high doses up to 400-500 mu g/mL while effectively inhibit melanogenesis in a dose-dependent manner. At depigmenting doses, the explored extracts showed no adverse effects on zebrafish embryos melanocytes. Even more, they did not provoke inflammation or neutropenia when applied at the highest dose ensuring almost complete the cells depigmentation. Since LSE and ASE have demonstrated significantly higher the therapeutic potential than kojic acid and hydroquinone, two well-known depigmenting agents, overall results of this study strongly suggest that the explored mushrooms extracts could be used as efficient and safe topical agents in treatments of skin hyperpigmentation disorders.

AB  - Bakterije roda Pseudomonas imaju sposobnost produkcije i razgradnje širokog spektra jedinjenja. Cilj ove doktorske teze bio je da se u kolekciji sojeva roda Pseudomonas identifikuju i rekombinantno eksprimiraju nove lakaze i lipaze, i evaluira njihov aplikativni potencijal. Sedam sojeva obuhvaćeno je analizom oksidativne i hidrolitičke aktivnosti prema pet različitih supstrata.

AB  - Pseudomonas strains have the ability to produce and degrade a wide range of compounds. The main objective of this thesis was to identify, recombinantly express and characterize novel laccases and lipases from Pseudomonas spp. collection, and to evaluate their application potential. Seven strains were analyzed for oxidative and hydrolytic activity towards five different substrates. Genes encoding laccases were detected in P. putida F6, P. putida KT2440 and P. putida CA-3 strains. Proteins McoCA3, McoKT, Cbp and CopA were heterologously expressed in E. coli, purified and characterized, exhibiting broad temperature and pH range and high thermal stability. The ability of enzymes to degrade textile dyes was also examined. All enzymes proved to be very efficient in degradation of synthetic dyes, with the CopA enzyme from P. putida F6 showing the most significant activity, degrading five out of seven tested dyes. Lipolytic activity was detected in two strains: P. aeruginosa PAO1 and P. chlororaphis B-561. The potential for biodegradation of polymeric materials such as medium chain length polyhydroxyalkanoates and polycaprolactone was demonstrated, while degradation potential of B-561 was confirmed in the compost system as well. Three lipases were homologously expressed – LipA, PlcB and LipA, but they were not secreted. This study showed that Pseudomonas genus is a good source of biotechnologically relevant enzymes. Recombinant laccase expression yielded enzymes suitable for application in the degradation of persistent synthetic dyes from wastewaters. For the application of recombinant lipases in the biodegradation of polymers, optimization of the secretion is necessary, however wild type strains expressing these enzymes are good enough biocatalysts for biodegradation purpose.

AB  - Silica microparticles made of diatomaceous earth have become particularly attractive materials for designing drug delivery systems. In order to investigate the use of natural diatoms as drug scaffolds for carbon monoxide releasing molecules (CORMs), we evaluated the chemisorption of the cis-[Re(CO)(2)Br-4](2-) complex (ReCORM-2) and its vitamin B-12 derivative (B-12-ReCORM-2) on Coscinodiscus frustules by 3D FT-IR spectroscopic imaging, and the drugs' neovascularization effects in vivo in the zebrafish (Danio rerio) model. By mapping the symmetric Re-C equivalent to O upsilon(CO) stretching vibration of the CORMs in the 2000 cm(-1) region, we found that the drugs are mostly localized at the girdle band of the diatom frustule. Both ReCORM-2 and B-12-ReCORM-2 retain their CO-releasing ability when chemisorbed on the diatoms. When applied in vivo at doses  gt = 25 mu M, the molecules markedly reduced intersegmental and subintestinal vessels development in zebrafish, revealing high anti-angiogenic potential. In addition, diatom frustules did not provoke any toxic in vivo response in the zebrafish embryos, including inflammation. Overall, our results indicate that: (1) CORMs chemisorbed on diatom frustules retain their CO-releasing abilities; (2) both CO-releasing molecules show a concentration-dependent effect on the neovascularization in developing zebrafish; (3) silicate frustules are not toxic and could be used as CORMs drug carriers.

AB  - TheTrametes versicolorlaccase catalyzed oxidation of chalcone butein afforded four dimers of aurone sulfuretin (i.e.two regioisomeric pairs of diasteromers,1-4) as the major products. The formation of the dimers was explained by a two step process involving the initial cyclization of butein into aurone sulfuretin, followed by the combination of two molecules of sulfuretin. The coupling process occurred between the 2,10-double bond of one molecule of sulfuretin and the (3 ',4 ') catechol group of the other to yield a dimeric structure. This was confirmed by the experiment involving the laccase catalyzed oxidation of sulfuretin yielding the same dimeric bisaurones. Compounds1,3and4, were isolated using semipreparative HPLC and characterized by the detailed analysis of the NMR, MS, IR, and UV-vis data. The structure of compound2, isolated as a mixture containingca.25% of compound1,was proposed by the comparison of(1)H NMR data to compound1and by using LC-ESIMS analysis. The starting chalcone butein and the products of the biocatalytic transformation, aurone sulfuretin and sulfuretin dimers1,3and4,were evaluated for their cytotoxic and antioxidative propertiesin vitrousing a healthy human fibroblast (MRC5) cell line. The biotransformation products showed lower cytotoxicity but higher antioxidative properties. TheC. coggygriabark methanol extract rich in butein and sulfuretin was also biotransformed by laccase. The transformed extract exhibited significantly improved antioxidative activities.

This was confirmed by the experiment involving the laccase catalyzed oxidation of sulfuretin yielding the same dimeric bisaurones. Compounds1,3and4, were isolated using semipreparative HPLC and characterized by the detailed analysis of the NMR, MS, IR, and UV-vis data. The structure of compound2, isolated as a mixture containingca.25% of compound1,was proposed by the comparison of(1)H NMR data to compound1and by using LC-ESIMS analysis. The starting chalcone butein and the products of the biocatalytic transformation, aurone sulfuretin and sulfuretin dimers1,3and4,were evaluated for their cytotoxic and antioxidative propertiesin vitrousing a healthy human fibroblast (MRC5) cell line. The biotransformation products showed lower cytotoxicity but higher antioxidative properties. TheC. coggygriabark methanol extract rich in butein and sulfuretin was also biotransformed by laccase. The transformed extract exhibited significantly improved antioxidative activities.",

AB  - Chemical and biocatalytic synthesis of seven previously undescribed marchantin A ester derivatives has been presented. Chemical synthesis afforded three peresterified bisbibenzyl products (TE1-TE3), while enzymatic method, using lipase, produced regioselective monoester derivatives (ME1-ME4). The antiproliferative activities of all prepared derivatives of marchantin A were tested on MRC-5 healthy human lung fibroblast, A549 human lung cancer, and MDA-MB-231 human breast cancer cell lines. All tested esters were less cytotoxic in comparison to marchantin A, but they also exhibited lower cytotoxicity against healthy cells. Monoesters displayed higher cytotoxic activities than the corresponding peresterified products, presumably due to the presence of free catechol group. Monohexanoyl ester ME3 displayed the same IC50 like marchantin A against MDA-MB-231 cells, but the selectivity was higher. In this way, regioselective enzymatic monoesterification enhanced selectivity of marchantin A. ME3 was also the most active among all derivatives against lung cancer cells A549 with the slightly lower activity and selectivity in comparison to marchantin A.

AB  - Combination therapy targeting both tumor growth and vascularization is considered to be a cornerstone for colorectal carcinomas (CRC) treatment. However, the major obstacles of most clinical anticancer drugs are their weak selective activity towards cancer cells and inherent inner organs toxicity, accompanied with fast drug resistance development. In our effort to discover novel selective and non-toxic agents effective against CRC, we designed, synthesized and characterized a series of rhenium(I) tricarbonyl-based complexes with increased lipophilicity. Two of these novel compounds were discovered to possess remarkable anticancer, anti-angiogenic and antimetastatic activity in vivo (zebrafish-human HCT-116 xenograft model), being effective at very low doses (1-3 mu M). At doses as high as 250 mu M the complexes did not provoke toxicity issues encountered in clinical anticancer drugs (cardio-, hepato-, and myelotoxicity). In vivo assays showed that the two compounds exceed the anti-tumor and anti-angiogenic activity of clinical drugs cisplatin and sunitinib malate, and display a large therapeutic window.

AB  - Biocatalytic oxidations mediated by laccases are gaining importance due to their versatility and beneficial environmental effects. In this study, the oxidation of 1,4-dihydropyridines has been performed using three different types of bacterial laccase-based catalysts: purified laccase from Bacillus licheniformis ATCC 9945a (BliLacc), Escherichia coli whole cells expressing this laccase, and bacterial nanocellulose (BNC) supported BliLacc catalysts. The catalysts based on bacterial laccase were compared to the commercially available Trametes versicolor laccase (TvLacc). The oxidation product of 2,6-dimethyl-1,4-dihydropyridine-3,5-dicarboxylate was obtained within 7-24 h with good yields (70-99%) with all three biocatalysts. The substrate scope was examined with five additional 1,4-dihydropyridines, one of which was oxidized in high yield. Whole-cell biocatalyst was stable when stored for up to 1-month at 4 degrees C. In addition, evidence has been provided that multicopper oxidase CueO from the E. coli expression host contributed to the oxidation efficiency of the whole-cell biocatalyst. The immobilized whole-cell biocatalyst showed satisfactory activity and retained 37% of its original activity after three biotransformation cycles.

AB  - 1,2-Bis(4-pyridyl)ethane (bpa) and 1,2-bis(4-pyridyl)ethene (bpe) were used for the synthesis of polynuclear silver(I) complexes, {[Ag(bpa)]NO3}(n) (1), {[Ag(bpa)(2)](CF3SO3H2O)-H-.}(n) (2) and {[Ag(bpe)]CF3SO3}(n) (3). In complexes 1-3, the corresponding nitrogen-containing heterocycle acts as a bridging ligand between two Ag(I) ions. In vitro antimicrobial activity of these complexes, along with the ligands used for their synthesis, was evaluated against the broad panel of Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria and fungi. The silver(I) complexes 1-3 showed selectivity towards Candida spp. and Gram-negative Escherichia coli in comparison to the other investigated bacterial strains, effectively inhibiting the growth of four different Candida species with minimal inhibitory concentrations (MICs) between 2.5 and 25 mu g/mL and the growth of E. coli, with MIC value being 12.5 mu g/mL. Importantly, complex 2 significantly reduced C. albicans filamentation, an essential process for its pathogenesis. Antiproliferative effect on the normal human lung fibroblast cell line MRC-5 was also evaluated with the aim of determining the therapeutic potential of the complexes 1-3. The interactions of these complexes with calf thymus DNA (ctDNA) and bovine serum albumin (BSA) were studied to evaluate their binding activities towards these biomolecules for possible insights on their mode of action.

In vivo assays showed that the two compounds exceed the anti-tumor and anti-angiogenic activity of clinical drugs cisplatin and sunitinib malate, and display a large therapeutic window.

abstract = "Combination therapy targeting both tumor growth and vascularization is considered to be a cornerstone for colorectal carcinomas (CRC) treatment. However, the major obstacles of most clinical anticancer drugs are their weak selective activity towards cancer cells and inherent inner organs toxicity, accompanied with fast drug resistance development. In our effort to discover novel selective and non-toxic agents effective against CRC, we designed, synthesized and characterized a series of rhenium(I) tricarbonyl-based complexes with increased lipophilicity. Two of these novel compounds were discovered to possess remarkable anticancer, anti-angiogenic and antimetastatic activity in vivo (zebrafish-human HCT-116 xenograft model), being effective at very low doses (1-3 mu M).

AB  - Applying a bioactivity-guided isolation approach, staurosporine was separated and identified as the active principle in the culture extract of the new isolate Streptomyces sp. BV410 collected from the chamomile rhizosphere. The biotechnological production of staurosporine by strain BV410 was optimized to yield 56 mg/L after 14 days of incubation in soy flour-glucose-starch-mannitol-based fermentation medium (JS). The addition of FeSO4 significantly improved the staurosporine yield by 30%, while the addition of ZnSO4 significantly reduced staurosporine yield by 62% in comparison with the starting conditions. Although staurosporine was first isolated in 1977 from Lentzea albida (now Streptomyces staurosporeus) and its potent kinase inhibitory effect has been established, here, the biological activity of this natural product was assessed in depth in vivo using a selection of transgenic zebrafish (Danio rerio) models, including Tg(fli1:EGFP) with green fluorescent protein-labeled endothelial cells allowing visualization and monitoring of blood vessels. This confirmed a remarkable antiangiogenic activity of the compound at doses of 1 ng/ml (2.14 nmol/L) which is below doses inducing toxic effects (45 ng/ml; 75 nmol/L). A new, efficient producing strain of commercially significant staurosporine has been described along with optimized fermentation conditions, which may lead to optimization of the staurosporine scaffold and its wider applicability.

AB  - Many traditional remedies represent potential candidates for integration with modern medical practice, but credible data on their activities are often scarce. For the first time, the anti-virulence potential and the safety for human use of the ethanol extracts of two medicinal plants, Persicaria maculosa (PEM) and Bistorta officinalis (BIO), have been addressed. Ethanol extracts of both plants exhibited anti-virulence activity against the medically important opportunistic pathogen Pseudomonas aeruginosa. At the subinhibitory concentration of 50 mu g/mL, the extracts demonstrated a maximal inhibitory effect (approx. 50%) against biofilm formation, the highest reduction of pyocyanin production (47% for PEM and 59% for BIO) and completely halted the swarming motility of P. aeruginosa. Both extracts demonstrated better anti-quorum sensing and antibiofilm activities, and a better ability to interfere with LasR receptor, than the tested dominant extracts' constituents. The bioactive concentrations of the extracts were not toxic in the zebrafish model system. This study represents an initial step towards the integration of P. maculosa and B. officinalis for use in the treatment of Pseudomonas infections.

AB  - Infective diseases have become health threat of a global proportion due to appearance and spread of microorganisms resistant to majority of therapeutics currently used for their treatment. Therefore, there is a constant need for development of new antimicrobial agents, as well as novel therapeutic strategies. Quinolines and quinolones, isolated from plants, animals, and microorganisms, have demonstrated numerous biological activities such as antimicrobial, insecticidal, anti-inflammatory, antiplatelet, and antitumor. For more than two centuries quinoline/quinolone moiety has been used as a scaffold for drug development and even today it represents an inexhaustible inspiration for design and development of novel semi-synthetic or synthetic agents exhibiting broad spectrum of bioactivities. The structural diversity of synthetized compounds provides high and selective activity attained through different mechanisms of action, as well as low toxicity on human cells. This review describes quinoline and quinolone derivatives with antibacterial, antifungal, anti-virulent, antiviral, and anti-parasitic activities with the focus on the last 10 years literature.

AB  - We have prepared a series of ten 3-arylcoumarin molecules, their respective fac-[Re(CO)(3)(bpy)L](+) and fac-[Re(CO)(3)(L(sic)L)Br] complexes and tested all compounds for their antimicrobial efficacy. Whereas the 3-arylcoumarin ligands are virtually inactive against the human-associated pathogens with minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs)  gt  150 mu M, when coordinated to the fac-[Re(CO)(3)](+) core, most of the resulting complexes showed remarkable antibacterial potency. Several rhenium complexes exhibit activity in nanomolar concentrations against Gram-positive pathogens such as Staphylococcus aureus strains, including methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA) and Enterococcus faecium. The molecules do not affect bacterial cell membrane potential, but some of the most potent complexes strongly interact with DNA, indicating it as a possible target for their mode of action. In vivo studies in the zebrafish model showed that the complexes with anti-staphylococcal/MRSA activity were non-toxic to the organism even at much higher doses of the corresponding MICs. In the zebrafish-MRSA infection model, the complexes increased the survival rate of infected fish up to 100% and markedly reduced bacterial burden. Moreover, all rescued fish developed normally following the treatments with the metallic compounds.

AB  - Chemical and biocatalytic synthesis of seven previously undescribed marchantin A ester derivatives has been presented. Chemical synthesis afforded three peresterified bisbibenzyl products (TE1-TE3), while enzymatic method, using lipase, produced regioselective monoester derivatives (ME1-ME4). The antiproliferative activities of all prepared derivatives of marchantin A were tested on MRC-5 healthy human lung fibroblast, A549 human lung cancer, and MDA-MB-231 human breast cancer cell lines. All tested esters were less cytotoxic in comparison to marchantin A, but they also exhibited lower cytotoxicity against healthy cells. Monoesters displayed higher cytotoxic activities than the corresponding peresterified products, presumably due to the presence of free catechol group. Monohexanoyl ester ME3 displayed the same IC50 like marchantin A against MDA-MB-231 cells, but the selectivity was higher. In this way, regioselective enzymatic monoesterification enhanced selectivity of marchantin A. ME3 was also the most active among all derivatives against lung cancer cells A549 with the slightly lower activity and selectivity in comparison to marchantin A.

AB  - Systemic toxicity and severe side effects are commonly associated with anticancer chemotherapies. New strategies based on enhanced drug selectivity and targeted delivery to cancer cells while leaving healthy tissue undamaged can reduce the global patient burden. Herein, we report the design, synthesis and characterization of a bio-inspired hybrid multifunctional drug delivery system based on diatom microalgae. The microalgae's surface was chemically functionalized with hybrid vitamin B-12-photoactivatable molecules and the materials further loaded with highly active rhenium(I) tricarbonyl anticancer complexes. The constructs showed enhanced adherence to colorectal cancer (CRC) cells and slow release of the chemotherapeutic drugs. The overall toxicity of the hybrid multifunctional drug delivery system was further enhanced by photoactivation of the microalgae surface. Depending on the construct and anticancer drug, a 2-fold increase in the cytotoxic efficacy of the drug was observed upon light irradiation. The use of this targeted drug delivery strategy, together with selective spatial-temporal light activation, may lead to lower effective concentration of anticancer drugs, thereby reducing medication doses, possible side effects and overall burden for the patient.

abstract = "Systemic toxicity and severe side effects are commonly associated with anticancer chemotherapies. New strategies based on enhanced drug selectivity and targeted delivery to cancer cells while leaving healthy tissue undamaged can reduce the global patient burden. Herein, we report the design, synthesis and characterization of a bio-inspired hybrid multifunctional drug delivery system based on diatom microalgae. The microalgae's surface was chemically functionalized with hybrid vitamin B-12-photoactivatable molecules and the materials further loaded with highly active rhenium(I) tricarbonyl anticancer complexes. The constructs showed enhanced adherence to colorectal cancer (CRC) cells and slow release of the chemotherapeutic drugs. The overall toxicity of the hybrid multifunctional drug delivery system was further enhanced by photoactivation of the microalgae surface. Depending on the construct and anticancer drug, a 2-fold increase in the cytotoxic efficacy of the drug was observed upon light irradiation. The use of this targeted drug delivery strategy, together with selective spatial-temporal light activation, may lead to lower effective concentration of anticancer drugs, thereby reducing medication doses, possible side effects and overall burden for the patient.",

AB  - New polynuclear silver(I) complexes with 1,5-naphthyridine (1,5-naph), [Ag(NO3)(1,5-naph)](n) (Ag1), [Ag (CF3COO)(1,5-naph)]n (Ag2) and [Ag(CF3SO3)(1,5-naph)](n) (Ag3) were synthesized by the reaction of the corresponding silver(I) salt and 1,5-naph in ethanol at room temperature. These complexes were characterized by NMR, IR and UV Vis spectroscopy, while their crystal structures were determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. In all these complexes, 1,5-naph acts as a bridging ligand between two Ag(I) ions, while the remaining coordination sites are occupied by oxygen atom(s) of the corresponding anion. The antimicrobial efficiency of these silver(I) complexes was evaluated against the broad panel of Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria and fungi. The complexes showed good to moderate antibacterial activity with the minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) values being in the range 2.5-100 mu g/mL (6.5-333.3 mu M), while their antifungal activity against the investigated Candida spp. was significantly higher (MIC = 0.78-6.25 mu g/mL; 2.6-20.8 mu M). Moreover, complexes Ag1 and Ag2 effectively inhibited C. albicans biofilms formation, while Ag1 was also shown to inhibit the formation of mixed C. albicans/Pseudomonas aeruginosa biofilms. Toxicological evaluations on zebrafish (Dario rerio) embryos revealed that all silver(I) complexes could be applied as antifungal agents, whereas Ag3 had the best therapeutic potential showing both the lowest MIC values against the tested Candida strains and the non-toxic in vivo response in the zebrafish embryos at these doses.

AB  - In spite of extensive usage of Laetiporus sulphureus (sulphur polypore) in traditional European and Asian ethnomedicine for centuries, its anticancer therapeutic potential and toxicity profile remained explored in animal models. Herein, using zebrafish (Danio rerio), as a preclinical animal model, we demonstrated that L sulphureus lectin (LSL) and ethanol extract (LSE) are non-toxic at high doses up to 400-500 mu g/mL, while they effectively inhibited angiogenesis and cancer development at much lower doses. Lectin showed 74-fold higher antiangiogenic potency than the extract, and even 378-fold higher therapeutic potential than sunitinib-malate, cardiotoxic and myelosupressive anti-angiogenic drug of clinical relevance. Using wound healing and MTT assays, we proved LSL's strong anti-migratory effect and selective endothelial cytotoxidty in relation to lung fibro-blasts. In addition, employing the zebrafish xenograft models, we demonstrated that LSL almost completely reduced growth, neovascularization and metastasis of human colorectal carcinoma and mouse melanoma. Even more, LSL exerted 8-fold higher potency towards colorectal carcinoma than melanoma, showing markedly higher activity than cisplatin, while LSE failed to express any anticancer activity. Accompanied with non-toxic response, including neutropenia and inflammation, the results of this study strongly imply that LSL could be used as safe adjuvant in chemotherapy against colorectal carcinoma and melanoma.

AB  - Cyanine based chemosensing platforms have successfully been employed over the past couple of decades in various fields of biomolecular sciences. Still a substantial number of recent advances and improvements on this class of compounds are reported in the art. This paper presents our latest work on the improved synthetic approach, study on photophysical properties, and biosensing applicability of monomethine cyanine dyes. The series of mono-, di- and tricationic dyes showed up to 5-fold enhanced resistance against photobleaching compared to the commercially available Thiazole Orange (TO). The title compounds were studied as potential molecular probes for the detection of deoxyribonucleic acid, demonstrating their capacity as excellent fluorescent labeling agents. Depending on the dye chemical structure, current Cl-TO compounds exhibit up to 834-fold enhanced fluorescence emission and form stable complexes with Calf Thymus-DNA. The calculated binding constants were found to be higher than several conventional fluorogenic dyes for nucleic acid detection. All studied derivatives appeared as less cytotoxic than the Thiazole Orange. IC50 concentrations in human fibro-blasts MRCS cell line were calculated up to 50 mu M for the synthesized Cl-TO dyes, and 0.5 mu M for the parental Thiazole Orange. Two of the dyes were found very competent in post-electrophoretic visualization of DNA. As demonstrated by the agarose gel electrophoresis, the staining efficiency and detection limits of the dyes were comparable to the widely used Ethidium Bromide. The tricationic dye revealed great potential for cell cycle analysis in G1, S and G2 phases. The chlorinated TO derivatives readily stain human cells in vivo, while they can effectively be applied for eukaryotic and microbial cell staining.

AB  - In a continuing search for a novel metal-containing antimicrobial agents, the present study reports the synthesis, characterization and biological evaluation of two silver(I) complexes with 1,10-phenanthroline-based ligands, [Ag(1,10-phen)(2)]CF3COO center dot H2O (Ag1) and [Ag(CF3COO)(5,6-epoxy-1,10-phen)](2)(Ag2), 1,10-phen is 1, 10-phenanthroline and 5,6-epoxy-1,10-phen is 5,6-epoxy-5,6-dihydro-1,10-phenanthroline. The complexes were characterized by different spectroscopic techniques (IR, H-1 and C-13 NMR and UV-Vis), while the crystal structure of Ag2 complex was determined by a single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. The spectroscopic data confirmed that the structure of Ag1 complex, with silver(I) ion tetrahedrally coordinated by two bidentate 1, 10-phen ligands, is in accordance to the previous report (S.E. Paramonov et al., 2003). The crystallographic results showed that in dinuclear Ag2 complex, both Ag(I) ions are coordinated bidentately by 5,6-epoxy-1, 10-phen and monodentately by trifluoroacetate, with presence of the short Ag center dot center dot center dot Ag contact of 2.963 angstrom. Both silver (I) complexes were evaluated in vitro for antimicrobial activity against four bacterial and four Candida species, showing selectivity towards the investigated species of Candida with minimal inhibitory concentrations (MICs) between 0.9 and 12.5 mu M. Moreover, Ag2 complex manifested significant antiproliferative properties in the case of a range of human cell lines, including human breast cancer (MDA-MB 231), which resulted from the presence of epoxy functional group in the ligand. The gel electrophoresis results obtained from the studies of Ag1 and Ag2 interactions with bacteriophage lambda DNA (XDNA) suggested that these complexes did not cause DNA degradation.

AB  - Laccases are multicopper-oxidases with variety of biotechnological applications. While predominantly used, fungal laccases have limitations such as narrow pH and temperature range and their production via heterologous protein expression is more complex due to posttranslational modifications. In comparison, bacterial enzymes, including laccases, usually possess higher thermal and pH stability, and are more suitable for expression and genetic manipulations in bacterial expression hosts. Therefore, the aim of this study was to identify, recombinantly express, and characterize novel laccases from Pseudomonas spp. A combination of approaches including DNA sequence analysis, N-terminal protein sequencing, and genome sequencing data analysis for laccase amplification, cloning, and overexpression have been used. Four active recombinant laccases were obtained, one each from P. putida KT2440 and P. putida CA-3, and two from P. putida F6. The new laccases exhibited broad temperature and pH range and high thermal stability, as well as the potential to degrade selection of synthetic textile dyes. The best performing laccase was CopA from P. putida F6 which degraded five out of seven tested dyes, including Amido Black 10B, Brom Cresol Purple, Evans Blue, Reactive Black 5, and Remazol Brilliant Blue. This work highlighted species of Pseudomonas genus as still being good sources of biocatalytically relevant enzymes.

The best performing laccase was CopA from P. putida F6 which degraded five out of seven tested dyes, including Amido Black 10B, Brom Cresol Purple, Evans Blue, Reactive Black 5, and Remazol Brilliant Blue. This work highlighted species of Pseudomonas genus as still being good sources of biocatalytically relevant enzymes.",

AB  - There is a high number of well characterized, commercially available laccases with different redox potentials and low substrate specificity, which in turn makes them attractive for a vast array of biotechnological applications. Laccases operate as batteries, storing electrons from individual substrate oxidation reactions to reduce molecular oxygen, releasing water as the only by-product. Due to society's increasing environmental awareness and the global intensification of bio-based economies, the biotechnological industry is also expanding. Enzymes such as laccases are seen as a better alternative for use in the wood, paper, textile, and food industries, and they are being applied as biocatalysts, biosensors, and biofuel cells. Almost 140 years from the first description of laccase, industrial implementations of these enzymes still remain scarce in comparison to their potential, which is mostly due to high production costs and the limited control of the enzymatic reaction side product(s). This review summarizes the laccase applications in the last decade, focusing on the published patents during this period.

AB  - We have explored the possibility of using organometallic derivatives of cobalamin as a scaffold for the delivery of the same antimalarial drug to both erythro- and hepatocytes. This hybrid molecule approach, intended as a possible tool for the development of multi-stage antimalarial agents, pivots on the preparation of azide-functionalized drugs which, after coupling to the vitamin, are released with a 4-(4-ethynylphenyl)-triazole functionality. Three chloroquine and one imidazolopiperazine derivative (based on the KAF156 structure) were selected as model drugs. One hybrid chloroquine conjugate was extensively studied via fluorescent labelling for in vitro and in vivo bio-distribution studies and gave proof-of-concept for the design. It showed no toxicity in vivo (zebrafish model) as well as no hepatotoxicity, no cardiotoxicity or developmental toxicity of the embryos. All 4-(4-ethynylphenyl)-triazole derivatives of chloroquine were equally active against chloroquine-resistant (CQR) and chloroquine-sensitive (CQS) Plasmodium falciparum strains.
