Protein NMR as a screening tool in drug discovery has become prominent within the past ten years. Advances in protein manipulation, whether by biological means (labeling) or physical means (NMR), have created a powerful method that is able to observe ligand-target interactions in solution.

Natural products (NPs) continue to serve as an invaluable source in drug discovery, and peripheral evolution of NPs is a highly efficient evolution strategy. Herein, we describe a unified "methyl to amide" peripheral evolution of Tanshinone IIA and Cryptotanshinone for discovery of NLRP3 inflammasome inhibitors. There were 54 compounds designed and prepared, while the chemoinformatic analysis revealed that these evolved NP analogues occupy a unique chemical space.

The distribution of substitutional aluminum (Al) atoms in zeolites affects molecular adsorbate geometry, catalytic activity, and shape and size selectivity. Accurately determining Al positions has been challenging. We used synchrotron resonant soft x-ray diffraction (RSXRD) at multiple energies near the Al K-edge combined with molecular adsorption techniques to precisely locate "single Al" and "Al pairs" in a commercial H-ZSM-5 zeolite.

Systems biology tackles the challenge of understanding the high complexity in the internal regulation of homeostasis in the human body through mathematical modelling. These models can aid in the discovery of disease mechanisms and potential drug targets. However, on one hand the development and validation of knowledge-based mechanistic models is time-consuming and does not scale well with increasing features in medical data.

Objectives: Pancreatic cancer, a highly invasive and prognostically unfavorable malignant tumor, consistently exhibits resistance to conventional chemotherapy, leading to substantial side effects and diminished patient quality of life. This highlights the critical need for the discovery of novel, effective, and safe chemotherapy drugs. This study aimed to explore bioactive compounds, particularly natural products, as an alternative for JAK2 protein inhibitor in cancer treatment.
