Article Abstract

The reaction of dichlorodiphenylsilane with a polydentate Schiff base ligand derived from pyridoxal and 2-hydroxyaniline yields the macrocyclic centrosymmetric silicon compound 9,27-dimethyl-3,3,21,21-tetraphenyl-2,4,20,22-tetraoxa-8,13,26,31-tetraaza-3,21-disilapentacyclo[30.4.0.0(6,11).0(14,19).0(24,29)]hexatrideca-1(32),6,8,10,12,14,16,18,24,26,28,30,33,35-tetradecaene-10,28-diol chloroform tetrasolvate, C(52)H(44)N(4)O(6)Si(2) x 4CHCl(3). The asymmetric unit contains half of the macrocycle and two molecules of chloroform, with C-H...O and C-H...N contacts binding the two guests to the host in the crystal structure. This macrocyclic silicon compound represents a promising host for molecular-recognition processes and for the construction of nanostructures.

Bacterial infections and inflammation severely impede wound healing. Here, we developed a zwitterionic hydrogel incorporating MOF/GOx for pH-responsive, controlled drug release. The multifunctional hydrogel embedded with MOF/GOx was successfully prepared through the Schiff base reaction between the copolymer poly[(2-methacryloyloxyethyl phosphorylcholine)-co-(4-formylphenyl methacrylate)] (PMF) and the branched polyethylenimine (PEI) modified by the zwitterionic monomer ((4-hydroxyphenyl)sulfonyl)(4-(trimethylammonio)butanoyl)amide (AB), which possessed excellent injectable and self-healing ability, a highly sensitive and reversible responsiveness to pH changes, and good biocompatibility.

The management of bacterial wounds presents a significant challenge in the field of medicine and poses a grave threat to public health. Traditional gauze materials exhibit limited efficacy in treating bacterial infection wounds, while antibiotics demonstrate cytotoxicity and resistance. Therefore, in this study, the peptide biomimetic polymer (PAL-BA) was designed and served as the antibacterial framework for constructing an antibiotic drug-free antibacterial hydrogel dressing through a Schiff base reaction with oxidized hyaluronic acid (OHA).

Aldolases are crucial enzymes that catalyze the formation of carbon-carbon bonds in the context of the anabolic and catabolic pathways of various metabolites. The bacterium Pseudomonas fluorescens N3 can use naphthalene as its sole carbon and energy source by using, among other enzymes, the trans-o-hydroxybenzylidenepyruvate (tHBP) hydratase-aldolase (HA), encoded by the nahE gene. In this study, we present the crystallographic structures of tHBP-HA in three different functional states: the apo enzyme with a phosphate ion in the active site, and the Schiff base adduct bound either to pyruvate or to the substitute with '(R)-4-hydroxy-4-(2-hydroxyphenyl)-2-oxobutanoate'(intermediate state).
