They are widespread with remarkably diverse architectures and biological functions, which are achieved by varying either the drimane subunit, hydroquinone segment, or the fusion types of drimane and hydroquinone segment both of them. This type of natural products has drawn increasing attention in the discovery of novel pharmaceutical leads. Enormous efforts have been devoted to developing efficient and divergent synthesis approaches to facilitate the SAR study of drimane (hydro)quinones, aiming for more promising functional leads.

One distinct category of biosignatures being explored is organic compounds. A subdivision of these compounds not yet readily investigated are volatile organic compound (VOCs). When assessing these VOCs as a group (volatilome) a fingerprint of all VOCs within an environment allows the complex patterns in metabolic data to be unravelled. As a technique already successfully applied to many biological and ecological fields, this paper explores how analysis of volatilomes in terrestrial extreme environments could be used to enhance processes (such as metabolomics and metagenomics) already utilised in life detection beyond Earth. By overcoming some of the complexities of collecting VOCs in remote field sites, a variety of lab based analytical equipment and techniques can then be utilised. Researching volatilomics in astrobiology requires time to characterise the patterns of VOCs. They must then be differentiated from abiotic (non-living) signals within extreme environments similar to those found on other planetary bodies (analogue sites) or in lab-based simulated environments or microcosms. Such an effort is critical for understanding data returned from past or upcoming missions, but it requires a step change in approach which explores the volatilome as a vital additional tool to current 'Omics techniques.</p>","PeriodicalId":94,"journal":{"name":"Natural Product Reports","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":10.2,"publicationDate":"2024-10-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142453668","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Since enzymes utilize substrates derived from renewable resources, biocatalysis offers a pathway to an efficient bioeconomy with reduced environmental footprint. However, enzymes have evolved over millions of years to meet the needs of their host organisms, which often do not align with industrial requirements. As a result, enzymes frequently need to be tailored for specific industrial applications. Combining enzyme engineering with high-throughput screening has emerged as a key approach for developing novel biocatalysts, but several challenges are yet to be addressed. In this review, we explore emergent strategies and methods for isolating, creating, and characterizing enzymes optimized for bioproduction. We discuss fundamental approaches to discovering and generating enzyme variants and identifying those best suited for specific applications.

Each member of this family has similarities in their overall structure, but they have varying specific differences, making Fe/2OG DOs attractive for catalytic diversity. With the advancement of current research, more Fe/2OG DOs have been discovered, and their catalytic scope has been further broadened; however, apart from hydroxylation, many reaction mechanisms have not been accurately demonstrated, and there is a lack of a systematic understanding of their molecular basis. Recently, an increasing number of X-ray structures of Fe/2OG DOs have provided new insights into the structural basis of their function and substrate-binding properties. This structural information is essential for understanding catalytic mechanisms and mining potential catalytic reactions.

From this extensive list, an oligomer network was generated and unprecedented MIA statistics were mined and shared herein.

This effort outlined oligomerization trends in a scaffold-specific manner, and established binding reactivity patterns facilitating the comprehension of the associated biosynthetic processes.
