AI Article Synopsis
Article Abstract
Guanidinoglycosides are a class of non-cytotoxic molecular transporters capable of delivering high molecular weight bioactive cargos into cells at low nanomolar concentrations. Efficient bioconjugation with guanidinoglycosides has been previously demonstrated by utilizing a guanidinoneomycin decorated with a reactive but also unstable N-hydroxysuccinimmide ester-containing linker. Herein we report the synthesis, chemistry, and application of a new, stable guanidinoneomycin derivative armed with a highly specific maleimide moiety which allows for thiol-maleimide click chemistry, a highly popular bioconjugation strategy, widening the field of application of these intriguing and useful delivery vehicles.

A single molecule sensor for several analytes is indeed desired by the scientists around the world due to obvious advantages. In this report we present a new class of Lophine incorporated azo dyes that has capacity of differential colorimetric detection of several metal ions. Interestingly the sensor was found to have pH dependent selective response towards several metals.

Herein, we report the first example that P(O)-H species including -phosphonates and -phosphine oxides could participate in a highly regioselective 1,4-addition to in situ generated 1-benzopyrylium ion from C3-substituted 2-chromene hemiketals, which provides a brand-new and effective approach for the synthesis of C4-phosphorylated 4-chromenes with diverse C3-functionality (ketone, ester, sulfonyl, aryl, and alkyl groups). In total, the reaction features the use of inexpensive Zn(ClO)·6HO as a catalyst, low catalyst loading (only 5 mol %), mild reaction conditions (60 °C, 10 min to 24 h), and broad substrate scope (46 examples) as well as good to high yields (>90% yield on average). More importantly, mechanistic experiments demonstrated the essential role of the C3-substituent on 2-chromene hemiketals in stabilizing the in situ generated 1-benzopyrylium ion and the regioselective 1,4-addition control.

This study explores the relationship between 25-hydroxyvitamin D/calcium/alkaline phosphatase (ALP) levels and kidney stone development via cross-sectional and Mendelian randomization (MR) analyses. We used data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) 2013 to 2018 to explore the associations of 25(OH)D metabolite, calcium, and ALP levels with kidney stone development, LDSC analysis to determine the associations between their genetically predicted levels and kidney stone development, and MR analysis to determine the causality of those relationship via genome-wide association studies (GWASs). The cross-sectional study revealed a relationship between ALP levels and kidney stone development (Model 1: OR = 1.

Biochemistry

Department of Chemistry, University of California, Berkeley, California 94720, United States.
In many bacteria, the location of the mRNA start codon is determined by a short ribosome binding site sequence that base pairs with the 3'-end of 16S rRNA (rRNA) in the 30S subunit. Many groups have changed these short sequences, termed the Shine-Dalgarno (SD) sequence in the mRNA and the anti-Shine-Dalgarno (ASD) sequence in 16S rRNA, to create "orthogonal" ribosomes to enable the synthesis of orthogonal polymers in the presence of the endogenous translation machinery. However, orthogonal ribosomes are prone to SD-independent translation.
