A new enzymatic protocol based on lipase-catalyzed cascade toward (E)-α,β-unsaturated carboxylic esters is presented. The proposed methodology consists of elementary organic processes starting from acetals and cyanoacetic acid leading to the formation of desired products in a cascade sequence. The combination of enzyme promiscuous abilities gives a new opportunity to synthesize complex molecules in the one-pot procedure. Results of studies on the influence of an enzyme type, solvent, and temperature on the cascade reaction course are reported. The presented methodology provides meaningful qualities such as significantly simplified process, excellent E-selectivity of obtained products and recycling of a biocatalyst.

Extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) can effectively attenuate heavy metal mobility in aquatic ecosystems and reduce metal toxicity to cells. However, a systematic study of microalgae EPS responses and their adsorption behaviors, characteristics, and mechanisms under different heavy metal exposures has not been performed. In this study, EPS extracted from Chlamydomonas reinhardtii CC-125 was analyzed for compositional changes (monosaccharides and proteins) under Cd, Cu, Pb, and Zn treatments.

A ratiometric electrochemical aptasensor was developed for ultra-sensitive detection of cortisol using aptamer (Apt) as recognition element, methylene blue (MB) as signal probe, and zirconium metal-organic framework (Zr-MOF) as carrier loaded with abundant MB for signal amplification. The carboxylated multi-walled carbon nanotubes (cMWCNTs)-modified Au electrode showed excellent electrochemical performance to immobilize complementary DNA (cDNA) for hybridizing with MB@Zr-MOF-Apt via amide bonds. In the presence of cortisol, it would compete with cDNA for binding the Apt, resulting in the detachment of MB@Zr-MOF-Apt complex from the electrode surface, and the electrochemical signal of MB was decreased, while that of [Fe(CN)] was basically unchanged.

Endogenous nitrogen (N) release from lake sediments is one of main causes affecting water quality, which can be affected by the presence of iron (Fe) minerals and organic matter, especially low-molecular-weight organic acids (LMWOAs). Although these substances always coexist in sediments, their interaction effect on N fate is not yet clear. In this study, the role and mechanisms of the coexistence of iron mineral (ferrihydrite, Fh) and LMWOAs, i.

The carboxyl-terminus of Hsp70-interacting protein (CHIP) plays crucial roles in tumorigenesis and immunity, with previous studies suggesting a double-edged sword in thyroid cancer. However, its precise functions and underlying molecular mechanisms in thyroid cancer remained unclear. Here, we demonstrate through immunohistochemistry (IHC) that CHIP expression progressively increases from normal thyroid tissue to primary papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) and lymph node metastases, with CHIP levels positively correlating with lymph node metastasis ( = 0.

Electrochemical oxidative cross-dehydrogenative-coupling (CDC) is an ideal strategy to conduct the C3-alkoxylation of imidazo[1,2-]pyridine, but it remains a challenge owing to limitation imposed by the use of alkyl alcohols and carboxylic acids. Herein, we report a mild and efficient 2-electrode constant-potential electrolysis of imidazo[1,2-]pyridine with hexafluoroisopropanol (HFIP) to produce various imidazo[1,2-]pyridine HFIP ethers. Mechanistic studies indicated that the electrooxidation reaction might involve radical coupling and ionic reaction.
