Evolution of Vitamin B2 Biosynthesis: 6,7-Dimethyl-8-Ribityllumazine Synthases of Brucella

TL;DR: The ribH1 gene, which is located inside a small riboflavin operon, is cloned and expressed, together with two other putative rib oflavin biosynthesis genes and the nusB gene, specifying an antitermination factor, which was found to be an immunodominant Brucella antigen and was able to generate strong humoral as well as cellular immunity against Bru Cella abortus in mice.

Relationship between stability and flexibility in the most flexible region of Photinus pyralis luciferase.

TL;DR: Intrinsic and ANS fluorescence studies demonstrate that D476N mutation is brought about by structural changes without significant effect on thermostability and flexibility and molecular modeling reveals that disruption of a salt bridge between D(474) and K(445) accompanying with some H-bond deletion may be involved in destabilization of D474K mutant.
