Article Synopsis
  • Xq28 int22h-1/int22h-2 duplication results from recombination between specific genetic repeats and is linked to a form of intellectual disability along with recurrent infections and atopic diseases.
  • In a study involving 15 families, many carriers exhibited mild or no symptoms, suggesting that the condition can manifest variably.
  • The findings point towards potential incomplete penetrance, meaning not all carriers show obvious signs of the condition, indicating a need for further research to understand the genetic implications better.

The chiral-induced spin selectivity (CISS) effect relates to the spin-selective electron transport through chiral molecules; therefore, the chiral molecules act as spin filters. In past studies, correlation was found between the magnitude of the spin filtering and the intensity of the circular dichroism (CD) spectrum (the first Compton peak) of the molecules. Since the intensity of the CD peak relates to both the magnitude of the electric and magnetic dipole transitions, it was not clear which of these properties correlate with the CISS effect.

We have achieved the first series of -based building blocks, viz., s ( = 1-4), and unraveled a rational design of their π-extension. Sequentially increasing numbers () of the exocyclic π-linkers showed (a) a systematic bathochromic shift in both absorption and emission spectra, (b) selective stabilization of the lowest-unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO), and (c) unselective changes in the S/S states.

Potocki-Schaffer syndrome includes multiple exostoses, parietal foramina, and variable developmental delay/intellectual disability. It is associated with a heterozygous deletion of the 11p12p11.2 region.
