The oxamate group in the title compound, C(10)H(11)NO(3), is almost coplanar with the phenyl ring because of intramolecular hydrogen-bonding interactions, and the structure can be described as an anilide single bonded to an ethyl carboxylate group. The supramolecular structure is achieved through intermolecular hard N-H...O and soft C-H...X (X = O and phenyl) hydrogen-bonding interactions.

Steroids are organic compounds found in all forms of biological life. Besides their structural roles in cell membranes, steroids act as signalling molecules in various physiological processes and are used to treat inflammatory conditions. It has been hypothesised that in addition to their well-characterised genomic and non-genomic pathways, steroids exert their biological or pharmacological activities an indirect, nonreceptor-mediated membrane mechanism caused by steroid-induced changes to the physicochemical properties of cell membranes.

This study investigates the structural and dynamic properties of ternary mixtures composed of NaPF, ethylene carbonate (EC), and the ionic liquid choline glycine (ChGly), with a focus on their potential as electrolytes for supercapacitors. The combination of NaPF-EC, known for its high ionic conductivity, with the biodegradable and environmentally friendly ChGly offers a promising approach to enhancing electrolyte performance. Through molecular simulations, we analyze how the inclusion of small concentrations of ChGly affects key properties such as density, cohesive energy, and ion mobility.

Disruption of the MEIG1-PACRG complex can impair sperm development, highlighting its potential as a therapeutic target for addressing male infertility or for the development of non-hormonal contraceptive methods. This study used virtual screening, molecular docking, and molecular dynamics (MD) simulations to identify small molecule inhibitors targeting the MEIG1-PACRG interface.

Mussel byssi form a robust underwater adhesive system, anchoring to various surfaces in harsh marine environments. Central to byssus is foot protein type 4 (fp-4), a junction protein connecting collagenous threads to proteinaceous plaque. This study investigated an anionic plaque-binding domain of fp-4 (fp-4a) and its interactions with cationic foot proteins (fp-1, fp-5, and fp-151 as model substitutes for fp-2) and metal ions (Ca, Fe, and V).

The "catalytic triad" present at the active site of ribonuclease A (RNase A) is responsible for the cleavage of the 5'-phosphodiester bond; amino acid residues His12, Lys41 and His119 constituting this triad provide a positively charged environment at the physiological pH. Based on docking studies, 1,4,5-trisubstituted-carboxylated 1,2,3-triazoles (1,4,5-TTs) were identified as a new class of RNase A inhibitors. Therefore, two different groups of 1,4,5-TTs, functionalized with carboxylic acid groups, were synthesized by reacting pre functionalized butyne-1,4-diol derivatives with several aryl/alkyl azides under solvent and catalyst free conditions.
