The title compound, C(6)H(6)O(3), is a member of the pyrone family. The mol-ecules are planar (r.m.s. deviation of the asymmetric unit is 0.0248 Å, whereas that of the dimer is 0.0360 Å) and they are dimerized due to inter-molecular O-H⋯O hydrogen bonds. The dimers are connected to each other through hydrogen bonds involving the CH(3) group and the hydr-oxy O atom. There are π-π inter-actions between the centroids of the pyrone rings at a distance of 3.8552 (13) Å. A C-H⋯π inter-action also exists between the carbonyl group and the centroid CgA of the pyrone ring, with O⋯CgA = 3.65 (1) Å and C⋯CgA = 4.363 (2) Å.

In DNA double helices, Hoogsteen (HG) base pairing is an alternative mode of Watson-Crick (WC) base pairing. HG bp has a different hydrogen bonding pattern than WC bp. We investigate here the binding energy of homeodomain proteins with a HG-DNA duplex, where DNA adopts a HG bp in its sequence.

A small but growing set of radical SAM (-adenosyl-l-methionine) enzymes catalyze the radical mediated dehydration or dehydrogenation of 1,2-diol substrates. In some cases, these activities can be interchanged via minor structural perturbations to the reacting components raising questions regarding the relative importance of hyperconjugation, proton circulation and leaving group stability in determining the reaction outcome. The present work describes trapping and electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) characterization of an α-hydroxyalkyl radical intermediate during dehydration and dehydrogenation of cytosylglucuronic acid and its derivatives catalyzed by the radical SAM enzyme BlsE and its Glu189Ala mutant from the blasticidin S biosynthetic pathway.

: The co-formulation of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) is a growing strategy in biopharmaceutical development, particularly when it comes to improving solubility and bioavailability. This study explores a co-precipitation method to prepare co-formulated crystals of griseofulvin (GF) and dexamethasone (DXM), utilizing nanostructured, functionalized polylactic glycolic acid (PLGA) as a solubility enhancer. : An antisolvent precipitation technique was employed to incorporate PLGA at a 3% concentration into the co-formulated GF and DXM, referred to as DXM-GF-PLGA.

Nanofibrous dressing materials with an antitumor function can potentially inhibit recurrence of melanoma following the surgical excision of skin tumors. In this study, hydrolyzed polyacrylonitrile (hPAN) nanofibers biofunctionalized with L-carnosine (CAR) and loaded with bio (CAR)-synthesized zinc oxide (ZnO) nanoparticles, ZnO/CAR-hPAN (hereafter called ZCPAN), were employed to develop an antimelanoma wound dressing. Inspired by the formulation of the commercial wound healing Zn-CAR complex, i.
