Molecular Iodine-Mediated β-Glycosylation of Thiomannosides with 1,6-Anhydrosugars.

β-Mannosides play a crucial role in cellular processes and immune responses, and their synthesis remains one of the most challenging tasks in carbohydrate chemistry. Glycosyl donors, such as thiomannosides, are stable and compatible with a range of protection and deprotection conditions. In this study, we demonstrate that molecular iodine efficiently induces the activation and coupling of thiomannosides with various 1,6-anhydrosugars as acceptors.

Unveiling secondary inorganic PM pollution in northern Taiwan: The role of aerosol acidity and transformation processes.

Efforts are being made to manage air pollution in Taiwan. To address the concern of anthropogenic aerosol loadings, it is imperative to comprehensively monitor and analyze the physicochemical and thermodynamic properties of secondary inorganic PM constituents. This study focuses on the high-resolution inorganic aerosol chemistry in an urban area of northern Taiwan, using hourly measurements of trace gases and water-soluble inorganic ions (WSIIs), integrated with the ISORROPIA II thermodynamic model.

Calibrated Functional Data Decreases Clinical Uncertainty for Tier 1 Monogenic Disease: Application to Long QT Syndrome.

Rare missense variants are often classified as variants of uncertain significance (VUS) due to insufficient evidence for classification. These ambiguous findings create anxiety and frequently lead to inappropriate workup, colloquially referred to as the 'diagnostic odyssey'. Well-validated high-throughput experimental data have the potential to significantly reduce the number of VUS identified by clinical genetic testing, though the extent of this reduction and the optimal strategies to achieve it remain unclear.

Analysis of Truncating Variants in >74 000 Cases Reveals New Clinically Relevant Gene Regions.

Background: Truncating variants (TTNtvs) in the titin () gene have been associated with cardiomyopathies or arrhythmias (C/A) and autosomal recessive neuromuscular diseases (NM). However, the clinical significance of TTNtvs across the entire coding sequence of has not been comprehensively assessed. The purpose of this study was to examine the burden of TTNtvs in C/A and NM cases compared with controls in the genome aggregation database.

Perch Hydrolysates from Upcycling of Perch Side Streams Accelerate Wound Healing by Enhancing Fibroblasts to Secrete Procollagen I, Fibronectin, and Hyaluronan.

Wound healing incurs various challenges, making it an important topic in medicine. Short-chain peptides from fish protein hydrolysates possess wound healing properties that may represent a solution. In this study, perch hydrolysates were produced from perch side steams using a designed commercial complex enzyme via a proprietary pressure extraction technique.
