The pentacyclic triterpenoid corosolic acid was metabolized by Cunninghamella echinulata CGMCC 3.2000 to its C-24 aldehyde group metabolite and five other hydroxylated metabolites: madasiatic acid (2), 2α, 3β, 7β-trihydroxyurs-12-en-28-oic acid (3), 2α, 3β, 15α-trihydroxyurs-12-en-28-oic acid (4), 2α, 3β, 6β, 7β-tetrahydroxyurs-12-en-28-oic acid (5), 2α, 3β, 7β, 15α-tetrahydroxyurs-12-en-28-oic acid (6), and 2α, 3β,7β-trihydroxy-24-al-urs-12-en-28-oic acid (7); compounds 3, 5, and 7 were new compounds. The α-glucosidase inhibitory effects of the metabolites were also evaluated.

The glycosaminoglycan hyaluronan (HA) is a ubiquitous, nonsulfated polysaccharide with diverse biological roles mediated through its interactions with HA-binding proteins (HABPs). Most HABPs belong to the Link module superfamily, including the major HA receptor, CD44, and secreted protein TSG-6, which catalyzes the covalent transfer of heavy chains from inter-α-inhibitor onto HA. The structures of the HA-binding domains (HABDs) of CD44 (HABD_CD44) and TSG-6 (Link_TSG6) have been determined and their interactions with HA extensively characterized.

Article Synopsis
- Trichoderma spp. produce secondary metabolites that help them communicate with plants and influence root development, although the specifics of how they do this are not well understood.
- The compound anthranilic acid (2-AA), found in T. guizhouense NJAU4742, promotes the formation of lateral roots by enhancing auxin signaling and transport.
- This study highlights 2-AA's role in lateral root development, showing that it works through mechanisms distinct from its known involvement in indole-3-acetic acid biosynthesis.

To reveal O-glycan structures in mucins, it is necessary to release covalently bound O-glycans from the polypeptide backbone and derivatize to a form suitable for structural analysis. Various derivatization methods can now be applied in the analysis of O-glycans following the development of O-glycan release methods. Among the many derivatization methods available, we prefer to use fluorescent labeling with 2-aminobenzoic acid (anthranilic acid, 2AA).

An expansion of AAGGG pentanucleotide repeats in the replication factor C subunit 1 (RFC1) gene is the genetic cause of cerebellar ataxia, neuropathy, and vestibular areflexia syndrome (CANVAS), and it also links to several other neurodegenerative diseases including the Parkinson's disease. However, the pathogenic mechanism of RFC1 AAGGG repeat expansion remains enigmatic. Here, we report that the pathogenic RFC1 AAGGG repeats form DNA and RNA parallel G-quadruplex (G4) structures that play a role in impairing biological processes.
