In previous research here, 3,5-diiodo-4-hydroxybenzoic acid (DIHB) was shown to promote the elongation of roots of cress (Lepidium sativum) seedlings growing in light, and to inhibit the auxin-induced production of ethylene in this tissue. Although DIHB is a cofactor for the oxidation of indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) by horse-radish peroxidase, it inhibits the decarboxylation of [1-(14)C]IAA by segments excised from cress roots. The inhibition by DIHB of ethylene production by this tissue does not, therefore, arise from a reduction of IAA levels. These findings are discussed in relation to the effects of DIHB on cress root growth.

The Munc13/UNC-13 family protein Ync13 is essential for septum integrity and cytokinesis in fission yeast. To further explore the mechanism of Ync13 functions, spontaneous suppressors of mutants, which can suppress the colony-formation defects and lysis phenotype of mutant cells, are isolated and characterized. One of the suppressor mutants, -, shows defects in the cytokinetic contractile ring constriction, septation, and daughter-cell separation, similar to mutant.

Developing the mechanism for MOF formation is crucial for the rapid development of new materials. This work demonstrates that Deuterium-NMR spectroscopy is the optimal inter-laboratory methodology for understanding the in-situ kinetics of metal-organic framework (MOF) formation. This method is facile, affordable, and allows for the isolation and monitoring of individual reagents by using one deuterated component while the remaining components are protonated.

Herein, a new metal-free, molecular chlorine-free, environmentally friendly, atom-economical, short time, inexpensive and simple operation method with mild reaction conditions for chlorination of alkenes, cyclic alkenes, ,-unsaturated carbonyl compounds, heteroaromatics, and natural products was reported with up to 96% yields using trichloroisocyanuric acid (TCCA) as the electrophilic chlorine source and TBACl as the nucleophilic chlorine source. It was demonstrated with bicyclic alkene benzonorbornadiene that regioselective chlorobromination and dibromination reactions can be carried out through TCCA/TBABr redox reactions, where TCCA acts as an oxidant in the presence of TBABr. The structures of the redox products were confirmed as a result of control experiments conducted with the newly presented DBI/TBACl and DBI/TBABr halogenation pairs.

Open wounds are one of the concerns of modern medicine. Early on, before the wound has closed, bacteria can easily enter, leading to bacterial infections. Excipients with antimicrobial effects can greatly facilitate the wound healing process.
