A bifunctional coumarin-based CD probe for chiral analysis of amino acids in aqueous solution.

Amino acids play important roles in human pathology and physiology and the qualitative and quantitative determination of chiral amino acids in humans and mammals also has important impacts on the life sciences. Therefore, the introduction of artificial probes to assess the concentrations and enantiomeric compositions [ee = ([D] - [L])/([D] + [L])] of amino acids in aqueous solution is necessary in understanding certain biological processes and diagnosing and treating diseases. Herein, a bifunctional achiral coumarin probe (Br-Coumarin) is reported to determine the absolute configuration, ee value, and concentration of 16 amino acids in THF/HO = 1/4 solution at micromolar concentrations.

Terpenoids are valued chemicals in the pharmaceutical, biotechnological, cosmetic, and biomedical industries. Biosynthesis of these chemicals relies on polymerization of Isopentenyl di-phosphate (IPP) and/or dimethylallyl diphosphate (DMAPP) monomers, which plants synthesize using a cytosolic mevalonic acid (MVA) pathway and a plastidic methyleritritol-4-phosphate (MEP) pathway. Circadian regulation affects MVA and MEP pathway activity at three levels: substrate availability, gene expression of pathway enzymes, and utilization of IPP and DMAPP for synthesizing complex terpenoids.

Background: Living with a diagnosis of dementia can involve managing certain behavioral and psychological symptoms. Alongside cognitive decline, this cohort expresses a suppression in melatonin production which can negatively influence their alignment of sleep or wake timings with the 24 hour day and night cycle. As a result, their circadian rhythms become disrupted.
