Protein dynamics governs most of the fundamental processes in the human body. Particularly, the dynamics of loops located near an active site can be involved in the positioning of the substrate and the reaction mechanism. The understanding of the functioning of dynamic loops is therefore a challenge, and often requires the use of a multi-disciplinary approach mixing, for example, crystallographic experiments and molecular dynamics simulations. In the present work, the dynamic behavior of the JK-loop of the human indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase 1 hemoprotein, a target for immunotherapy, is investigated. To overcome the lack of knowledge on this dynamism, the study reported here is based on 3 crystal structures presenting different conformations of the loop, completed with molecular dynamics trajectories and MM-GBSA analyses, in order to trace the reaction pathway of the enzyme. In addition, the crystal structures identify an exo site in the small unit of the enzyme, that is populated redundantly by the substrate or the product of the reaction. The role of this newer reported exo site still needs to be investigated.

Some aspects of the mercury photosensitized decomposition of ethylene oxide at room temperature have been reinvestigated. At least two, and probably more than two, distinct primary steps occur. The previously assumed major primary formation of hydrogen by a molecular process is shown to occur to a relatively small extent only. Hydrogen atoms play an important role in the process, as well as the following radicals: CH3, CHO, CH2CHO, and C2H5, and probably to a lesser extent also CH2. The products formed are CO, H2, C2H6, a little CH2CO and C2H4, and large amounts of aldehydes. The presence of higher aldehydes has been demonstrated. While there is a general similarity to the other modes of decomposition of ethylene oxide, a unique and unambiguous solution of the complete reaction mechanism is at present not possible.

An anatase TiO2 (001) surface is active and selective toward water production and results in the modification of the surface by forming S-doped TiO2, which enhances its photocatalytic activity.
