Pyrrolotriazine dual EGFR/HER2 kinase inhibitors with a 5-((4-aminopiperidin-1-yl)methyl) solubilizing group were found to be superior to analogs with previously reported C-5 solubilizing groups. New synthetic methodology was developed for the parallel synthesis of C-4 analogs with the new solubilizing group. Interesting new leads were evaluated in tumor xenograft models and the C-4 aminofluorobenzylindazole, 1c, was found to exhibit the best antitumor activity. It is hypothesized that this solubilizing group extends into the ribose-phosphate portion of the ATP binding pocket and enhances the binding affinity of the inhibitor.

Lysophosphatidic acid acyltransferase (LPAAT) is an enzyme responsible for the second acylation step of phospholipid biosynthesis and transforms lysophosphatidic acid to phosphatidic acid, a universal precursor of various phospholipids. In addition to the well-studied plsC-encoded LPAAT (EcPlsC), we previously found that Escherichia coli has another LPAAT that is encoded by yihG (EcYihG). EcPlsC and EcYihG are integral membrane proteins and have never been solubilized and purified in their active form.

In this study, skin collagen (TBSC) was extracted by acetic acid solubilization and its physicochemical properties were analyzed. The effects of TBSC and the TBSC hydrolysate (TBSCH) on ultraviolet (UV) irradiation-induced photoaging were investigated using a mouse model.

Maize ( L.), a key staple crop in Sub-Saharan Africa, is particularly vulnerable to concurrent drought and heat stress, which threatens crop yield and food security. Plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) have shown potential as biofertilizers to enhance plant resilience under such abiotic stresses.

The annotated and predicted genomes of five archaeal strains (AS1, AS2, AS8, AS11 and AS19), isolated from Sfax solar saltern sediments (Tunisia) and affiliated with , were performed by RAST webserver (Rapid Annotation using Subsystem Technology) and NCBI prokaryotic genome annotation pipeline (PGAP). The results showed the ability of strains to use a reduced semi-phosphorylative Entner-Doudoroff pathway for glucose degradation and an Embden-Meyerhof one for gluconeogenesis. They could use glucose, fructose, glycerol, and acetate as sole source of carbon and energy.

Many bioactive molecules contain primary ammonium groups, generating significant interest in developing selective receptors for ammonium ions. A promising strategy involves the use of polyaromatic cavitands to achieve size and shape selectivity through their cavity. However, designing effective receptors for ammonium ions in aqueous media is challenging due to the competitive nature of water.
