The -Ag(I)-C base pair (, 3-((2-(methylthio)pyrimidin-4-yl)thio)propane-1,2-diol; C, deoxycytidine) represents the first metal-mediated base pair comprising an -glycosidic nucleoside analogue. We report here the synthesis of the phosphoramidite suitable for the automated solid-phase synthesis of DNA oligonucleotides containing and its silver(I)-binding ability. The DNA duplexes comprising a :C mispair exhibit a large thermal stabilization upon the addition of one equivalent of silver ions, giving rise to the formation of the above-mentioned silver(I)-mediated base pair. By formally replacing the sulfur atom in the glycosidic bond by an oxygen atom, i.e., by applying 3-((2-(methylthio)pyrimidin-4-yl)oxy)propane-1,2-diol () as the artificial nucleoside analogue, the participation of this atom as a donor atom in silver(I)-mediated base pairing is shown to be neglectable.Supplemental data for this article is available online at.

To our knowledge, no Dutch questionnaires exist to administer patient satisfaction after total shoulder arthroplasty. The goal of this study is to develop a Dutch translation of the satisfaction questionnaire used by Swarup et al. (2017)1, into Dutch.

An obligately anaerobic, spore-forming sulphate-reducing bacterium, strain SB140, was isolated from a long-term continuous enrichment culture that was inoculated with peat soil from an acidic fen. Cells were immotile, slightly curved rods that stained Gram-negative. The optimum temperature for growth was 28 °C.

Lithium (Li) metal's extremely high specific energy and low potential make it critical for high-performance batteries. However, uncontrolled dendrite growth and an unstable solid-electrolyte interphase (SEI) during repeated cycling still seriously hinder its practical application in Li metal batteries. Herein, we demonstrate a facile and effective approach to fabricate a flexible and robust hybrid SEI layer using two kinds of organo-polysulfides with different sulfur chain lengths [bis(3-(triethoxysilyl)propyl)disulfide (Si-O-2S) and bis(3-(triethoxysilyl)propyl)tetrasulfide (Si-O-4S)] as the additives in the electrolyte.

Host response to environmental exposures such as pathogens and chemicals can include modifications to the epigenome and transcriptome. Improved signature discovery, including the identification of the agent and timing of exposure, has been enabled by advancements in assaying techniques to detect RNA expression, DNA base modifications, histone modifications, and chromatin accessibility. The interrogation of the epigenome and transcriptome cascade requires analyzing disparate datasets from multiple assay types, often at single-cell resolution, derived from the same biospecimen.
