Abstract
During viral infection, cells can deploy immune strategies that deprive viruses of molecules essential for their replication. Here, we report a family of immune effectors in bacteria that, upon phage infection, degrade cellular adenosine triphosphate (ATP) and deoxyadenosine triphosphate (dATP) by cleaving the N-glycosidic bond between the adenine and sugar moieties. These ATP nucleosidase effectors are widely distributed within multiple bacterial defense systems, including cyclic oligonucleotide-based antiviral signaling systems (CBASS), prokaryotic argonautes, and nucleotide-binding leucine-rich repeat (NLR)-like proteins, and we show that ATP and dATP degradation during infection halts phage propagation. By analyzing homologs of the immune ATP nucleosidase domain, we discover and characterize Detocs, a family of bacterial defense systems with a two-component phosphotransfer-signaling architecture. The immune ATP nucleosidase domain is also encoded within diverse eukaryotic proteins with immune-like architectures, and we show biochemically that eukaryotic homologs preserve the ATP nucleosidase activity. Our findings suggest that ATP and dATP degradation is a cell-autonomous innate immune strategy conserved across the tree of life.

Abstract
Marine sponges are sessile invertebrates that can be found in temperate, polar and tropical regions. They are known to be major contributors of bioactive compounds, which are discovered in and extracted from the marine environment. The compounds extracted from these sponges are known to exhibit various bioactivities, such as antimicrobial, antitumor and general cytotoxicity. For example, various compounds isolated from Theonella swinhoei have showcased various bioactivities, such as those that are antibacterial, antiviral and antifungal. In this review, we discuss bioactive compounds that have been identified from marine sponges that showcase the ability to act as antibacterial, antiviral, anti-malarial and antifungal agents against human pathogens and fish pathogens in the aquaculture industry. Moreover, the application of such compounds as antimicrobial agents in other veterinary commodities, such as poultry, cattle farming and domesticated cats, is discussed, along with a brief discussion regarding the mode of action of these compounds on the targeted sites in various pathogens. The bioactivity of the compounds discussed in this review is focused mainly on compounds that have been identified between 2000 and 2020 and includes the novel compounds discovered from 2018 to 2021.

Abstract
Deoxynucleoside 5-monophosphate N-glycosidase or DNPH1 (former name Rcl) is a nucleotide hydrolase whose expression in mammalian cancer tissues has been associated with its tumorigenic potential. Therefore, the enzyme has been studied principally in rat and human models. We found the corresponding gene also in the freshwater sponge Ephydatia muelleri, an animal phylogenetically very distant from mammals. Here we report the expression and characterization of the recombinant DNPH1 from E. muelleri. The ancient homolog of mammalian enzyme in a sponge showed the substrate specificity and catalytic efficiency similar to that in higher animals. E. muelleri DNPH1 is inhibited by the purine nucleotides with different numbers of 5'-phosphate groups (n = 1-4). Our results demonstrate that GTP but also dGTP are the best inhibitors, followed by all other purine nucleotides that were tested. Hence, the functioning of DNPH1 in cells where the natural ATP and GTP concentrations are much higher than those of the substrates, dNMPs, should normally be downregulated. We demonstrate for the first time the existence of biologically relevant natural inhibitors of DNPH1, namely ATP and GTP.

Abstract
Adenosine 5'-polyphosphates have been identified in vitro, as products of certain enzymatic reactions, and in vivo. Although the biological role of these compounds is not known, there exist highly specific hydrolases that degrade nucleoside 5'-polyphosphates into the corresponding nucleoside 5'-triphosphates. One approach to understanding the mechanism and function of these enzymes is through the use of specifically designed phosphonate analogues. We synthesized novel nucleotides: alpha,beta-methylene-adenosine 5'-tetraphosphate (pppCH2pA), beta,gamma-methylene-adenosine 5'-tetraphosphate (ppCH2ppA), gamma,delta-methylene-adenosine 5'-tetraphosphate (pCH2pppA), alphabeta,gammadelta-bismethylene-adenosine 5'-tetraphosphate (pCH2ppCH2pA), alphabeta, betagamma-bismethylene-adenosine 5'-tetraphosphate (ppCH2pCH2pA) and betagamma, gammadelta-bis(dichloro)methylene-adenosine 5'-tetraphosphate (pCCl2pCCl2ppA), and tested them as potential substrates and/or inhibitors of three specific nucleoside tetraphosphatases. In addition, we employed these p4A analogues with two asymmetrically and one symmetrically acting dinucleoside tetraphosphatases. Of the six analogues, only pppCH2pA is a substrate of the two nucleoside tetraphosphatases (EC 3.6.1.14), from yellow lupin seeds and human placenta, and also of the yeast exopolyphosphatase (EC 3.6.1.11). Surprisingly, none of the six analogues inhibited these p4A-hydrolysing enzymes. By contrast, the analogues strongly inhibit the (asymmetrical) dinucleoside tetraphosphatases (EC 3.6.1.17) from human and the narrow-leafed lupin. ppCH2ppA and pCH2pppA, inhibited the human enzyme with Ki values of 1.6 and 2.3 nm, respectively, and the lupin enzyme with Ki values of 30 and 34 nm, respectively. They are thereby identified as being the strongest inhibitors ever reported for the (asymmetrical) dinucleoside tetraphosphatases. The three analogues having two halo/methylene bridges are much less potent inhibitors for these enzymes. These novel nucleotides should prove valuable tools for further studies on the cellular functions of mono- and dinucleoside polyphosphates and on the enzymes involved in their metabolism.

Abstract
ADP-ribosyl cyclases are ubiquitous enzymes responsible for synthesis from NAD(+) of the intracellular calcium-releasing signal molecules cyclic ADP-ribose (cADPR) and nicotinic acid adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NAADP(+)). Here, we show that cyclases from lower and higher Metazoa also synthesize three adenylic dinucleotides from cADPR and adenine: diadenosine diphosphate and two isomers thereof. These dinucleotides are present and metabolized in mammalian cells and affect intracellular calcium and cell proliferation. The diadenosine diphosphate isomers are naturally occurring nucleotides containing an N-glycosidic bond different from the usual C1'-N9. The identification of these members of the family of NAD(+)-derived, calcium-active nucleotides opens new areas of investigation into their functional cooperation with cADPR and NAADP(+) and into their involvement in the physiology and pathology of calcium-controlled cell functions.

Abstract
Marine enzyme biotechnology can offer novel biocatalysts with properties like high salt tolerance, hyperthermostability, barophilicity, cold adaptivity, and ease in large-scale cultivation. This review deals with the research and development work done on the occurrence, molecular biology, and bioprocessing of marine enzymes during the last decade. Exotic locations have been accessed for the search of novel enzymes. Scientists have isolated proteases and carbohydrases from deep sea hydrothermal vents. Cold active metabolic enzymes from psychrophilic marine microorganisms have received considerable research attention. Marine symbiont microorganisms growing in association with animals and plants were shown to produce enzymes of commercial interest. Microorganisms isolated from sediment and seawater have been the most widely studied, proteases, carbohydrases, and peroxidases being noteworthy. Enzymes from marine animals and plants were primarily studied for their metabolic roles, though proteases and peroxidases have found industrial applications. Novel techniques in molecular biology applied to assess the diversity of chitinases, nitrate, nitrite, ammonia-metabolizing, and pollutant-degrading enzymes are discussed. Genes encoding chitinases, proteases, and carbohydrases from microbial and animal sources have been cloned and characterized. Research on the bioprocessing of marine-derived enzymes, however, has been scanty, focusing mainly on the application of solid-state fermentation to the production of enzymes from microbial sources.
