Understanding the heterogeneity of epigenetic modifications within single cells is pivotal for unraveling the nature of the complexity of gene expression and cellular function. In this study, we have developed a strategy based on multichrome encoding and "AND" Boolean logic recognition for multiplexed, spatially resolved imaging of single-cell RNA epigenetic modifications, termed as PRoximity Exchange-assisted Encoding of Multichrome (PREEM). Through the implementation of this strategy, we can now map the expression and nuclear distribution of multiple site-specific RNA N6-methyladenosine (mA) modifications at the single-molecule resolution level in single-cells, and reveal the previously unknown heterogeneity.

Human milk oligosaccharides (HMOs) are now the principal component of the latest infant formula generation. However, it is challenging to separate and quantify highly heterogeneous isomers when analyzing HMOs. Here, we developed a high-throughput isomer-resolved quantification method for 21 native HMOs based on ultrahigh-performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry-multiple reaction monitoring (UPLC-MS-MRM) technology.

The synthesis of chiral tetrahydroquinolines (THQs) has garnered significant interest from medicinal chemists due to their frequent presence as pharmacophores in bioactive compounds. While existing synthetic methods have primarily focused on THQs with single or multiple endocyclic chiral centers, the selective construction of THQs with both and cyclic chiral centers remains a significant challenge that requires further development. This study introduces a dynamic kinetic resolution (DKR)-based transfer hydrogenation of racemic 2-substituted quinolines, which yields structurally novel chiral THQs with consecutive and cyclic chiral centers in excellent yields and stereoselectivities (59 examples, with generally >20:1 dr and >90% ee, up to three consecutive stereocenters).

Phosphorothioate (PS) modifications in single-guided RNA (sgRNA) are crucial for genome editing applications using the CRISPR/Cas9 system. These modifications may enhance sgRNA stability, pharmacokinetics, and binding to targets, thereby facilitating the desired genetic alterations. Incorporating multiple PS groups at varying positions may introduce chiral centers into the sgRNA backbone, resulting in a complex mixture of constitutional- and stereoisomers that challenges current analytical capabilities for reliable identification and quantification.

The development of efficient immobilization support for the enhancement of enzyme activity and recyclability is a highly desirable objective. Single-crystalline ordered macro-microporous ZIF-8 (SOM-ZIF-8), has emerged as a highly effective matrix for enzyme immobilization, however, the inherent hydrophobic nature limits its further advancement. Herein, we have customized the immobilization of the Pseudomonas cepacia lipase (LP) in the modification-channels of SOM-ZIF-8 by functionalizing the inner surface-properties with polyethylene glycol (PEG) (LP@SOM-ZIF-8-PEG), and significant enhancement of the activity and (thermal, solvent and cyclic) stability can be realized.
