Abstract
The last 5 years have seen a series of advances in the application of isothermal titration microcalorimetry (ITC) and interpretation of ITC data. ITC has played an invaluable role in understanding multiprotein complex formation including proteolysis-targeting chimeras (PROTACS), and mitochondrial autophagy receptor Nix interaction with LC3 and GABARAP. It has also helped elucidate complex allosteric communication in protein complexes like trp RNA-binding attenuation protein (TRAP) complex. Advances in kinetics analysis have enabled the calculation of kinetic rate constants from pre-existing ITC data sets. Diverse strategies have also been developed to study enzyme kinetics and enzyme-inhibitor interactions. ITC has also been applied to study small molecule solvent and solute interactions involved in extraction, separation, and purification applications including liquid-liquid separation and extractive distillation. Diverse applications of ITC have been developed from the analysis of protein instability at different temperatures, determination of enzyme kinetics in suspensions of living cells to the adsorption of uremic toxins from aqueous streams.

Abstract
In the search for new inhibitors of bacterial metallo-β-lactamases (MBLs), a series of commonly used small molecule carboxylic acid derivatives were evaluated for their ability to inhibit New Delhi metallo-β-lactamase (NDM)-, Verona integron-encoded metallo-β-lactamase (VIM)-, and imipenemase (IMP)-type enzymes. Nitrilotriacetic acid (3) and N-(phosphonomethyl)iminodiacetic acid (5) showed promising activity especially against NDM-1 and VIM-2 with IC50 values in the low-to-sub μM range. Binding assays using isothermal titration calorimetry reveal that 3 and 5 bind zinc with high affinity with dissociation constant (Kd) values of 121 and 56 nM, respectively. The in vitro biological activity of 3 and 5 against E. coli expressing NDM-1 was evaluated in checkerboard format, demonstrating a strong synergistic relationship for both compounds when combined with Meropenem. Compounds 3 and 5 were then tested against 35 pathogenic strains expressing MBLs of the NDM, VIM, or IMP classes. Notably, when combined with Meropenem, compounds 3 and 5 were found to lower the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of Meropenem up to 128-fold against strains producing NDM- and VIM-type enzymes.

Abstract
Metal-phenolic networks (MPNs) have received widespread interest owing to their modular incorporation of functional metal ions and phenolic ligands. However, the interaction between MPNs and biomolecules is still relatively unexplored. Herein, we studied the effects of MPN-coated gold nanoparticles on amyloid fibril formation (which is associated with Alzheimer's disease) as a function of the metal ion in the MPN systems. All coated particles examined inhibited amyloid formation, with cobalt(ii) MPN-coated particles exhibiting the highest inhibition activity (90%). Molecular dynamics simulations and quantum mechanics calculations suggested that the geometry of the exposed cobalt coordination site in the cobalt-tannic acid networks facilitates its interactions with histidine and methionine residues in the amyloid beta peptides. Furthermore, the unique structure of cobalt MPNs may enable a wider variety of biomedical applications.

Abstract
Steady-state and time-resolved fluorescence spectroscopy, UV spectrophotometry and isothermal titration calorimetry techniques were used to study the coordinating properties of the 17aa peptide fragment (D17) derived from the central part of the mouse formin binding protein (FBP28 with the PDB code: 1E0L) towards Cu2+ ions. All the measurements were run in the 2-(N-morpholino)ethanesulfonic acid buffer (20 mM, pH 6.0). Under experimental conditions the formation of the 1:1 complex of Cu2+ ions with D17 is an entropy-driven process. Cu2+ ions cause the static fluorescence quenching of the peptide studied through the formation of a non-fluorescent complex. Furthermore, the thermal stability of D17 was discussed based on the results obtained from differential scanning fluorimetry (nanoDSF) data.
