The rapid and appropriate response of Pseudomonas spp. to environmental fluctuations has been enabled by numerous signal transduction regulatory systems. Regulatory systems in Pseudomonas aeruginosa are organized in a complex network which provides quick and fine-tuned cellular response through regulation of virulence and antibiotic resistance determinants production. Mobile integrons represent genetic elements included in the rapid dissemination of multiple antibiotic resistance determinants. The key factor of integron dynamics is enzyme integrase. So far, global regulators LexA, RpoS and PsrA have been recognized as regulators of the intI1 transcription. In this study, we discovered novel activator of the intI1 transcription, sensor kinase RclS, in Pseudomonas putida WCS358. This regulation is limited to stationary growth phase and appears to be indirect, at least through regulation of the rpoS expression. Sensor kinase RclS is a part of novel three-component system Rcl (Roc-like) together with two response regulators, RclR and RclA. RclS acted as a negative regulator of the rclA transcription, while the role in the rclR transcription regulation could not be defined. The RclSAR regulatory system seems to be a part of complex intI1 regulatory network which includes major stress response (SOS and RpoS) regulons.

The development of a metallic copper-based catalyst system remains a significant challenge. Herein, we report the synthesis of highly stable, active, and reusable Cu0 catalyst for the carboboration of alkynes using carbon electrophiles and bis(pinacolato)diboron (B2pin2) as chemical feedstocks to afford di- and trisubstituted vinylboronate esters in a regio- and stereoselective manner with appreciable turnover number (TON) of up to 2535 under mild reaction conditions. This three-component coupling reaction works well with a variety of substituted electrophiles and alkynes with broad functional group tolerance.

Anionic modulation induces molecular polarity in a three-component crown ether system.

Three-component crown ether phase change materials are characterized by a structural phase change in response to external stimuli such as temperature and electric or magnetic fields, resulting in significant changes in physical properties. In this work, we designed and synthesized two novel host-guest crown ether molecules [(PTFMA)(15-crown-5)ClO] (1) and [(PTFMA)(15-crown-5)PF] (2), through the reaction of -trifluoromethylaniline (PTFMA) with 15-crown-5 in perchloric acid or hexafluorophosphoric acid aqueous solution. Compound 1 undergoes a structural change from the non-centrosymmetric space group (2) to the centrosymmetric space group (2/) with increasing temperature.

(Ligno)Cellulose Nanofibrils and Tannic Acid as Green Fillers for the Production of Poly(vinyl alcohol) Biocomposite Films.

Polymers (Basel)

This study compared the use of cellulose nanofibrils (CNF) and lignocellulose nanofibrils (LCNF) in different concentrations to reinforce the poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) matrix. Both nanofillers significantly improved the elastic modulus and tensile strength of PVA biocomposite films. The optimum concentration of CNF and LCNF was 6% relative to PVA, which improved the tensile strength of the final PVA biocomposite with CNF and LCNF by 53% and 39%, respectively, compared to the neat PVA film.

A three-component cascade boronation-dearomatization reaction of alkenes, a diboron compound, and a pyridinium salt is diclosed, affording chiral boron-containing 1,4-dihyropyridines in high yields (≤98%) and diastereoselectivity (≤10:1 dr), along with excellent enantioselectivity (typically >99% ee). The catalytic system performs efficiently at low catalyst loadings (1 mol %) and was tested with >50 examples, including some biologically active molecules.

The scope of this work was to develop a thin-film composite (TFC) membrane for the separation of CO/CO mixtures, which are relevant for many processes of gas processing and gasification of carbon-based feedstock. Special attention was given to the development of highly permeable porous polysulfone (PSF) supports (more than 26,000 GPU for CO) since both the selective and support layers contribute significantly to the overall performance of the TFC membrane. The PSF porous support is widely used in commercial and lab-scale TFC membranes, and its porous structure and other exploitation parameters are set during the non-solvent-induced phase separation (NIPS) process.
