[reaction: see text] The intramolecular trans-cyclocarbolithiation of the alpha-lithiated 4-substituted 5-hexynyl carbamate (1S,4RS)-14 employing lithiodestannylation is presented. The 5-exo-dig cyclization products cis-/trans-16a were formed exclusively. The highly enantioenriched organotin precursor (S)-11 was synthesized via an asymmetric deprotonation of the corresponding alkyl carbamate 10 by the chiral complex sec-butyllithium/(-)-sparteine and subsequent substitution with tributyltin chloride.

The mitochondrial flavoenzymes proline dehydrogenase (PRODH) and hydroxyproline dehydrogenase (PRODH2) catalyze the first steps of proline and hydroxyproline catabolism, respectively. The enzymes are targets for chemical probe development because of their roles in cancer cell metabolism (PRODH) and primary hyperoxaluria (PRODH2). Mechanism-based inactivators of PRODH target the FAD by covalently modifying the N5 atom, with N-propargylglycine (NPPG) being the current best-in-class of this type of probe.

A straightforward synthetic route towards DAB-1 scaffolded dimeric iminosugars is described here, starting from readily available bis-glycosylamines. The method allows the integration of a variety of linkages (aryl, alkyl, polyethyleneglycol chains) between both iminosugars through the choice of the bis-amine used in the first step. Moreover, an additional substituent (allyl, ethynyl) may be inserted into the structure via nucleophilic addition of an organometallic reagent to the starting bis-glycosylamine.

Background: Long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) zinc finger protein 667-antisense RNA 1 () is closely related to the advancement of a variety of cancers, but its functional role in colorectal cancer remains unclear. This study was designed to explore the function and molecular mechanisms of lncRNA in colorectal cancer.
Methods: Reverse transcriptase real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) was used for the detection of and proline-rich nuclear receptor co-activator protein 2 () expression level.

Vitamin D receptor (VDR) plays a critical role in regulating multiple biological processes, including bone metabolism and cell differentiation, by mediating transcriptional activation in response to ligand binding. We have constructed an environmentally fluorescent probe 2 for VDR to facilitate real-time observation of its ligand-dependent conformational changes in living cells. This probe 2 was synthesized by introducing a dansyl fluorophore via an ethynyl group at the C11 position of 1α,25(OH)2D3.
