A new class of Corey-Chaykovsky reagent type five-membered heterocycles with an oxosulfonium ylide moiety has been synthesized by the water-mediated intramolecular cyclization/oxidation of α-carbonyl sulfur ylides generated from sulfonium salts under mild conditions.

Ribonucleases (RNases) are ubiquitous enzymes that process or degrade RNA, essential for cellular functions and immune responses. The EndoU-like superfamily includes endoribonucleases conserved across bacteria, eukaryotes, and certain viruses, with an ancient evolutionary link to the ribonuclease A-like superfamily. Both bacterial EndoU and animal RNase A share a similar fold and function independently of cofactors.

The ubiquitin E2 variant domain of TSG101 (TSG101-UEV) plays a pivotal role in protein sorting and virus budding by recognizing PTAP motifs within ubiquitinated proteins. Disrupting TSG101-UEV/PTAP interactions has emerged as a promising strategy for the development of novel host-oriented antivirals with a broad spectrum of action. Nonetheless, finding inhibitors with good properties as therapeutic agents remains a challenge since the key determinants of binding affinity and specificity are still poorly understood.

Cinnamoyl-containing nonribosomal peptides (CCNPs) constitute a unique family of natural products. The enzyme mechanism for the biaryl phenol coupling reaction of the bicyclic CCNPs remains unclear. Herein, we report the discovery of two new arabinofuranosylated bicyclic CCNPs cihanmycins (CHMs) A () and B () from DSM 45679 and the identification of the CHM biosynthetic gene cluster ( BGC) by heterologous expression in SBT18 to afford CHMs C () and D ().

Understanding tautomerism and characterizing solvent effects on the dynamic processes pose significant challenges. Using enhanced-sampling molecular dynamics based on state-of-the-art deep learning potentials, we investigated the tautomeric equilibria of glycine in water. We observed that the tautomerism between neutral and zwitterionic glycine can occur through both intramolecular and intermolecular proton transfers.
