Chiral Cyclic Alkyl Amino Carbene (CAAC) Transition-Metal Complexes: Synthesis, Structural Analysis, and Evaluation in Asymmetric Catalysis

Despite recent advances in the field of cyclic alkyl amino carbenes (CAACs) including a few complementary synthetic strategies affording CAACs with various substitution patterns, the application potential of chiral CAACs to efficiently catalyze asymmetric ...

Development of metal-organic frameworks based on N-heterocyclic ligands

Ilia Kochetygov

Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have firmly established in the field of porous materials since their early discovery in the 1990s. With a plethora of applications, these materials offer endless possibilities owing to their tunable, modular nature. The vast ...

A scalable CRISPR/Cas9-based fluorescent reporter assay to study DNA double-strand break repair choice

Stephanie Jocelyne Sungalee

Double-strand breaks (DSBs) are the most toxic type of DNA lesions. Cells repair these lesions using either end protection- or end resection-coupled mechanisms. To study DSB repair choice, we present the Color Assay Tracing-Repair (CAT-R) to simultaneously ...

Gas-phase structures reflect the pain-relief potency of enkephalin peptides

Vladimir Kopysov, Aleksandr Pereverzev

We use cold ion spectroscopy and quantum-chemical computations to solve the structures of opioid peptides enkephalins in the gas phase. The derived structural parameters clearly correlate with the known pharmacological efficiency of the studied drugs, sugg ...

Probing the interaction of nanoparticles with small molecules in real time via quartz crystal microbalance monitoring

Stefan Guldin, Ye Yang, Nikolaos Nianias, Runzhang Qi

Despite extensive advances in the field of molecular recognition, the real-time monitoring of small molecule binding to nanoparticles (NP) remains a challenge. To this end, we report on a versatile approach, based on quartz crystal microbalance with dissip ...

A Factor Two Improvement in High-Field Dynamic Nuclear Polarization from Gd(III) Complexes by Design

David Lyndon Emsley, Marinella Mazzanti, Anne-Sophie Chauvin, Dominik Józef Kubicki, Gabriele Stevanato, Georges Guévork Jean-Jacques Menzildjian

Gadolinium(III) complexes have recently been demonstrated to have potential as polarizing agents for high-field dynamic nuclear polarization (DNP) NMR spectroscopy. By tailoring the ligand design to reduce the zero-field splitting (ZFS), we demonstrate a q ...

Deciphering the molecular basis of mycobacteria and lipoglycan recognition by the C-type lectin Dectin-2

Alexiane Clara Decout

Dectin-2 is a C-type lectin involved in the recognition of several pathogens such as Aspergillus fumigatus, Candida albicans, Schistosoma mansonii, and Mycobacterium tuberculosis that triggers Th17 immune responses. Identifying pathogen ligands and underst ...

Real-time binding kinetics of ligand-receptor interactions

Ekaterina Rostova

In principle, a major goal in drug development is to design a high-affinity compound with an appropriate pharmacological response, which requires understanding of physical processes underlying the drug-target interaction, affinity and specificity. This dru ...

Current Trends in Multidrug Optimization: An Alley of Future Successful Treatment of Complex Disorders

Patrycja Nowak-Sliwinska

The identification of effective and long-lasting cancer therapies still remains elusive, partially due to patient and tumor heterogeneity, acquired drug resistance, and single-drug dose-limiting toxicities. The use of drug combinations may help to overcome ...

On the role of water density fluctuations in the inhibition of a proton channel

Lucie Monique Françoise Delemotte

Hv1 is a transmembrane four-helix bundle that transports protons in a voltage-controlled manner. Its crucial role in many pathological conditions, including cancer and ischemic brain damage, makes Hv1 a promising drug target. Starting from the recently sol ...
