WRAD core perturbation impairs DNA replication fidelity promoting immunoediting in pancreatic cancer.

It is unclear how cells counteract the potentially harmful effects of uncoordinated DNA replication in the context of oncogenic stress. Here, we identify the WRAD (WDR5/RBBP5/ASH2L/DPY30) core as a modulator of DNA replication in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) models. Molecular analyses demonstrated that the WRAD core interacts with the replisome complex, with disruption of DPY30 resulting in DNA re-replication, DNA damage, and chromosomal instability (CIN) without affecting cancer cell proliferation.

A Novel Modified ZIF-8 Nanoparticle with Enhanced Interfacial Compatibility and Pervaporation Performance in a Mixed Matrix Membrane for De-Alcoholization in Low-Concentration Solutions.

This study investigated the enhancement in bioethanol recovery from mixed matrix membranes (MMMs) by functionalizing zeolite framework-8 (ZIF-8) with imidazolate. This study focused on the separation of ethanol from low-concentration ethanol/water mixtures (typical post-fermentation concentrations of 5-10 wt%). Specifically, ZIF-8 was modified by the shell-ligand exchange reaction (SLER) with 5,6-dimethylbenzimidazole (DMBIM), resulting in ZIF-8-DMBIM particles with improved hydrophobicity, organophilicity, larger size, and adjustable pore size.

Disilicon-Mediated Carbon Monoxide Activation: From a 1,2,3-Trisila- to 1,3-Disilacyclopentadienes with Hypercoordinate λSi-λC Double Bonds.

The facile reaction of the SiPh-bridged bis-silylene (LSi:)SiPh (L=PhC(NBu)) with diphenylacetylene affords the unprecedented 1,2,3-trisilacyclopentadiene (LSi)(PhC)SiPh 1 with a hypercoordinate λSi-λSi double bond. Compound 1 is very oxophilic and consumes three molar equivalents of inert NO to form the bicyclic oxygenation product 2 through O-atom insertion in the Si=Si and Si-Si bonds. Strikingly, 1 can completely split the C≡O bonds of carbon monoxide under ambient conditions (1 atm, room temperature), yielding the 1,3-disilacyclopentadiene 3, representing the first hypercoordinate example of a cyclosilene with a λSi-λC double bond.

Promotion of aromatic amino acids of extracellular polymeric substance targeted transformation via sulfite mediated iron redox cycling in sludge solid-liquid separation.

Highly hydrophilic extracellular polymeric substance (EPS) with gel-like structure seriously plagues the development of sludge deep dewatering. Oxysulfur radicals-based oxidation driven by iron-bearing mineral proposes a promising strategy for effective EPS decomposition. However, the transformation and involved interaction mechanisms of aromatic proteins are still controversial due to the complex EPS structure.

Characterization and Flame-Retardant Properties of Cobalt-Coordinated Cyclic Phosphonitrile in Thermoplastic Polyurethane Composites.

Halogen-free organophosphorus flame retardants have promising application prospects due to their excellent safety and environmental protection properties.

RAD54L2-mediated DNA damage avoidance pathway specifically preserves genome integrity in response to topoisomerase 2 poisons.

Type II topoisomerases (TOP2) form transient TOP2 cleavage complexes (TOP2ccs) during their catalytic cycle to relieve topological stress. TOP2ccs are covalently linked TOP2-DNA intermediates that are reversible but can be trapped by TOP2 poisons. Trapped TOP2ccs block transactions on DNA and generate genotoxic stress, which are the mechanisms of action of TOP2 poisons.

Genome-Wide CRISPR Screens Reveal ZATT as a Synthetic Lethal Target of TOP2-Poison Etoposide That Can Act in a TDP2-Independent Pathway.

Etoposide (ETO) is an anticancer drug that targets topoisomerase II (TOP2). It stabilizes a normally transient TOP2-DNA covalent complex (TOP2cc), thus leading to DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs). Tyrosyl-DNA phosphodiesterases two (TDP2) is directly involved in the repair of TOP2cc by removing phosphotyrosyl peptides from 5'-termini of DSBs.

Chelating Bis-silylenes As Powerful Ligands To Enable Unusual Low-Valent Main-Group Element Functions.

ConspectusSilylenes are divalent silicon species with an unoccupied 3p orbital and one lone pair of electrons at the Si center. Owing to the excellent σ-donating ability of amidinato-based silylenes, which stems from the intramolecular imino- donor interaction with the vacant 3p orbital of the silicon atom, N-heterocyclic amidinato bis(silylenes) [bis(NHSi)s] can serve as versatile strong donating ligands for cooperative stabilization of central atoms in unusually low oxidation states. Herein, we present our recent achievement on the application of bis(NHSi) ligands with electronically and spatially different spacers to main-group chemistry, which has allowed the isolation of a variety of low-valent compounds consisting of monatomic zero-valent group 14 E complexes (named "metallylones", E = Si, Ge, Sn, Pb); monovalent group 15 E complexes (E = N, P, isoelectronic with metallylones); and diatomic low-valent E complexes (E = Si, Ge, P) with intriguing electronic structures and chemical reactivities.
