In the title coordination polymer, [Cd₂(C₄H₄O₄)(NO₃)₂(C₁₂H₈N₂)₂(H₂O)₂](n), the Cd(II) ion is seven-coordinated within a distorted penta-gonal-bipyramidal O₅N₂ environment. The succinate anions, located on an inversion centre, adopt a bis-monodentate bridging mode, leading to the formation of rods along [100]. The rods are connected by O-H⋯O hydrogen bonds between the coordinating water mol-ecules and nitrate O atoms of adjacent rods; the same type of hydrogen bonds are also observed between water and carboxyl-ate O atoms within the rods. π-π stacking inter-actions with a minimum plane-to-plane separation of 3.462 (2) Å occur between phenanthroline ligands.

Regulating insulin production by pancreatic beta cells is crucial for maintaining metabolic balance. Previous studies observed elevated neurotransmitter levels, like norepinephrine (NE), in metabolic syndrome mice with impaired insulin secretion. Given the therapeutic potential of β-adrenergic receptors (β-ARs) for diabetes and obesity, and the lack of structural data on murine β-ARs, we aimed to construct and validate 3D models to investigate their roles in insulin secretion regulation.

The development of new urban areas necessitates building on increasingly scarce land, often overlaid on weak soil layers. Furthermore, climate change has exacerbated the extent of global arid lands, making it imperative to find sustainable soil stabilization and erosion mitigation methods. Thus, scientists have strived to find a plant-based biopolymer that favors several agricultural waste sources and provides high strength and durability for sustainable soil stabilization.

The continuous exposure of chemical pesticides in agriculture, their contamination in soil and water pose serious threat to the environment. Current study used an approach to evaluate various pesticides like Hexaconazole, Mancozeb, Pretilachlor, Organophosphate and λ-cyhalothrin degradation capability of esterase. The enzyme was isolated from Salinicoccus roseus.

In this study, the interaction of crebanine, an isoquinoline alkaloid, with immunoglobulin G (IgG) was evaluated. Subsequently, the anticancer effects of crebanine in MCF-7 breast cancer cells were assessed. The results demonstrate that static quenching plays a key role in the fluorescence quenching of the IgG by crebanine, and some embedded hydrophobic patches of the IgG are exposed upon interaction with crebanine, while the characteristic β-sheet conformation of the IgG was almost preserved.

Here, we show that the replacement of the distal residues Asp and/or Arg of the DyP peroxidases from Bacillus subtilis and Pseudomonas putida results in functional enzymes, albeit with spectroscopically perturbed active sites. All the enzymes can be activated either by the addition of exogenous HO or by in situ electrochemical generation of the reactive oxygen species (ROS) OH, O and HO. The latter method leads to broader and upshifted pH-activity profiles.
