New article in Biochemistry

A new publication from Dr. Wai Shun Mak, Dr. Xiaokang Wang, Rigoberto Arenas, Youtian Cui, Dr. Steve J Bertolani, Wen Qiao Deng, Dr. Ilias Tagkopoulos, Dr. David K Wilson, Dr. Justin B Siegel, combining structural biology, genomic mining, and computational modeling to identify structural features critical to aldehyde deformylating oxygenases (ADOs). They discovered latent ADO-like function across the ferritin-like superfamily in various species of Bacteria and Archaea.
