DSCR4 (Down syndrome critical region 4) is a de novo-originated protein-coding gene present only in human chromosome 21 and its homologous chromosomes in apes. Despite being located in a medically critical genomic region and an abundance of evidence indicating its functionality, the roles of DSCR4 in human cells are unknown.

In this study, we demonstrate the spontaneous formation of a derivative of tris(bipyridine)ruthenium at 37°C through the coordination of three bipyridyl ligands incorporated into a peptide to a ruthenium ion. Specifically, we synthesized six bipyridyl-functionalized peptides with randomly chosen sequences.
