A simple, versatile and robust centrifugation-based filtration protocol for the isolation and quantification of alpha-synuclein monomers, oligomers and fibrils: Towards improving experimental reproducibility in alpha-synuclein research

Hilal Lashuel, Anass Chiki, Sonia Donzelli, Muhammed Muazzam Kamil Syed

Increasing evidence suggests that the process of alpha-synuclein (alpha-syn) aggregation from monomers into amyloid fibrils and Lewy bodies, via oligomeric intermediates plays an essential role in the pathogenesis of different synucleinopathies, including ...

Photocatalysis with organic dyes: facile access to reactive intermediates for synthesis

Jérôme Waser, Marion Marie-Agnès Garreau, Stephanie Grace Elizabeth Amos, Luca Buzzetti

Organic dyes have emerged as a reliable class of photoredox catalysts. Their great structural variety combined with the easy finetuning of their electronic properties has unlocked new possibilities for the generation of reactive intermediates. In this revi ...

Biomimetic Hydrogenation Catalyzed by a Manganese Model of [Fe]-Hydrogenase

Xile Hu, Huijie Pan

[Fe]‐hydrogenase is an efficient biological hydrogenation catalyst. Despite intense research, Fe complexes mimicking the active site of [Fe]‐hydrogenase have not achieved turnovers in hydrogenation reactions. Herein, we describe the design and development ...

Sulfuric acid condensation sink calculated for the Arctic Ocean 2018 expedition

Julia Schmale, Andrea Baccarini

The condensation sink is a measure of the sulfuric acid lifetime against condensation on preexisting aerosol particles. Dimensionally it is the inverse of a time (reported in per second) and it is calculated starting from the aerosol size distribution. A l ...

Experimental evidence for long-range stabilizing and destabilizing interactions between charge and radical sites in distonic ions

Ganna Gryn'ova

Polarizable radical sites in distonic radical anions are stabilized by ostensibly remote negative charges. Computational evidence suggests bond dissociation energies of closed-shell precursors are significantly lowered by through-space interactions with a ...

Getting the Right Grip? How Understanding Electrophile Selectivity Profiles Could Illuminate Our Understanding of Redox Signaling

Yimon Aye, Lingxi Wang

Recent Advances: Herein, we focus on the first step of this process, electrophile sensing. Electrophile sensing is typically a deceptively simple reaction between the thiol of a protein cysteine, of which there are around 200,000 in the human proteome, and ...

Copper-Catalyzed 1,2-Methoxy Methoxycarbonylation of Alkenes with Methyl Formate

Qian Wang, Jieping Zhu, Alexandre Julien Florent Leclair, Balázs Budai

Reported here is a copper-catalyzed 1,2-methoxy methoxycarbonylation of alkenes by an unprecedented use of methyl formate as a source of both the methoxy and the methoxycarbonyl groups. This reaction transforms styrene and its derivatives into value-added ...

Organocatalysts in C-N Bond Forming Reactions of Amines with CO2

Martin Hulla

The thesis describes a simple approach for N-formylation of amines with CO2 and hydrosilane reducing agents, the use of organic salts as N-formylation catalysts, their physical properties required for high catalytic activity and their role in the catalytic ...

Remote C(sp 3 )−H Arylation and Vinylation of N ‐Alkoxypyridinium Salts to δ‐Aryl and δ‐Vinyl Alcohols

Qian Wang, Jieping Zhu, Xu Bao

The reaction of readily available and benchstable N-alkoxypyridinium salts with arylboronic and vinylboronic acids afforded d-aryl and d-vinyl alcohols, respectively, in the presence of fac-Ir(ppy)3 and Cu(OTf)2 dual catalysts. The reaction takes place thr ...

Proteomics and Beyond: Cell Decision-Making Shaped by Reactive Electrophiles

Yimon Aye, Xuyu Liu

Revolutionary proteomic strategies have enabled rapid profiling of the cellular targets of electrophilic small molecules. However, precise means to directly interrogate how these individual electrophilic modifications at low occupancy functionally reshape ...
