An expedient and eco-friendly synthesis of 1-aryl/heteroaryl-[1,2,4]-triazolo[4,3-a]quinoxalin-4(5H)-ones (4) has been accomplished via iodobenzene diacetate mediated oxidative intramolecular cyclization of 3-(2-(aryl/heteroarylidene)hydrazinyl)-quinoxalin-2(1H)-ones (3). Ten synthesized compounds 3 and 4 (10-40 μg) on irradiation with UV light at λ 312 nm could lead to cleavage of supercoiled pMaxGFP DNA (Form I) into the relaxed DNA (Form II) without any additive. Further, DNA cleaving ability of triazoles was quantitatively evaluated and was found to be dependent on its structure, concentration, and strictly on photoirradiation time. Mechanistic investigations using several additives as potential inhibitors/activator revealed that the DNA photocleavage reaction involves Type-I pathway leading to formation of superoxide anion radicals (O) as the major reactive oxygen species responsible for photocleavage process.

Autosomal dominant CDK13-related disease is characterized by congenital heart defects, dysmorphic facial features, and intellectual developmental disorder (CHDFIDD). Heterozygous pathogenic variants, particularly missense variants in the kinase domain, have previously been described as disease causing. Using the determination of a methylation pattern and comparison with an established episignature, we reveal the first hypomorphic variant in the kinase domain of CDK13, leading to a never before described autosomal recessive form of CHDFIDD in a boy with characteristic features.

Oscillation of the active form of the initiator protein DnaA (ATP-DnaA) allows for the timely regulation for chromosome replication. After initiation, DnaA-bound ATP is hydrolyzed, producing inactive ADP-DnaA. For the next round of initiation, ADP-DnaA interacts with the chromosomal locus DARS2 bearing binding sites for DnaA, a DNA-bending protein IHF, and a transcription activator Fis.
