AI Article Synopsis

  • The study involves NMR spectroscopy to analyze the interactions of gold(III), palladium(II), and platinum(II) chloride complexes with various dimethylpyridines and trimethylpyridine.
  • It reports changes in chemical shifts of protons, carbons, and nitrogens, noting deshielding for protons and carbons and shielding for nitrogens in the complexes.
  • The paper discusses the coordination shifts in relation to the complexes' structural factors, including the type of metal, molecular geometry (trans or cis), and the orientation of methyl groups on the pyridine ring.

Article Abstract

(1)H, (13)C and (15)N NMR studies of gold(III), palladium(II) and platinum(II) chloride complexes with dimethylpyridines (lutidines: 2,3-lutidine, 2,3lut; 2,4-lutidine, 2,4lut; 3,5-lutidine, 3,5lut; 2,6-lutidine, 2,6lut) and 2,4,6-trimethylpyridine (2,4,6-collidine, 2,4,6col) having general formulae [AuLCl(3)], trans-[PdL(2)Cl(2)] and trans-/cis-[PtL(2)Cl(2)] were performed and the respective chemical shifts (delta(1H), delta(13C), delta(15N)) reported. The deshielding of protons and carbons, as well as the shielding of nitrogens was observed. The (1)H, (13)C and (15)N NMR coordination shifts (Delta(1H) (coord), Delta(13C) (coord), Delta(15N) (coord); Delta(coord) = delta(complex) - delta(ligand)) were discussed in relation to some structural features of the title complexes, such as the type of the central atom [Au(III), Pd(II), Pt(II)], geometry (trans- or cis-), metal-nitrogen bond lengths and the position of both methyl groups in the pyridine ring system.

Gas-phase conformational landscape and ring-puckered structure of 1-aminoindane.

Chemphyschem

January 2025

Universidad de Valladolid Facultad de Ciencias, Química Física y Química Inorgánica, SPAIN.

Indane-based molecules are effective scaffolds for different pharmaceutical products, so it is relevant to analyze the relation between structure and functionality in indane derivatives. Here, we have characterized the conformational landscape and molecular structure of 1-aminoindane in the gas phase using chirped-excitation Fourier-transform microwave spectroscopy and computational methods. The rotational spectrum confirmed the presence of two conformers, which were identified based on their rotational constants and 14N nuclear quadrupole coupling tensor elements.

Ultrasensitive Characterization of Native Bacterial Biofilms via Dynamic Nuclear Polarization-Enhanced Solid-State NMR.

Bacterial biofilms are major contributors to persistent infections and antimicrobial resistance, posing significant challenges to treatment. However, obtaining high-resolution structural information on native bacterial biofilms has remained elusive due to the methodological limitations associated with analyzing complex biological samples. Solid-state NMR (ssNMR) has shown promise in this regard, but its conventional application is hindered by sensitivity constraints for unlabeled native samples .

Assignment of the N-terminal domain of mouse cGAS.

Biomol NMR Assign

January 2025

Department of Chemistry and Chemical Biology, TU Dortmund University, Dortmund, Germany.

Cyclic GMP-AMP synthase (cGAS) is a DNA-sensing enzyme that is a member of the nucleotidyltransferase (NTase) family and functions as a DNA sensor. The protein is comprised of a catalytic NTase core domain and an unstructured hypervariable N-terminal domain (NTD) that was reported to increase protein activity by providing an additional DNA-binding surface. We report nearly complete H, N, and C backbone chemical-shift assignments of mouse cGAS NTD (residues 5-146), obtained with a set of 3D and 4D solution NMR experiments.

Solution NMR studies of large systems are hampered by rapid signal decay. We hereby introduce ROCSY (relaxation-optimized total correlation spectroscopy), which maximizes transfer efficiency across J-coupling-connected spin networks by minimizing the amount of time magnetization spends in the transverse plane. Hard pulses are substituted into the Clean-CITY TOCSY pulse element first developed by Ernst and co-workers, allowing for longer delays in which magnetization is aligned along the z-axis.

J-domain proteins (JDPs) are essential cochaperones of heat shock protein 70 (Hsp70), as they bind and deliver misfolded polypeptides while also stimulating ATPase activity, thereby mediating the refolding process and assisting Hsp70 in maintaining cellular proteostasis. Despite their importance, detailed structural information about JDP‒Hsp70 complexes is still being explored due to various technical challenges. One major challenge is the lack of more detailed structural data on full-length JDPs.
