The propargyl group is a highly versatile moiety whose introduction into small-molecule building blocks opens up new synthetic pathways for further elaboration. The last decade has witnessed remarkable progress in both the synthesis of propargylation agents and their application in the synthesis and functionalization of more elaborate/complex building blocks and intermediates. The goal of this review is to highlight these exciting advances and to underscore their impact.

Chirality epitomizes the sophistication of chemistry, representing some of its most remarkable achievements. Yet, the precise synthesis of chiral structures from achiral building blocks remains a profound and enduring challenge in synthetic chemistry and materials science. Here, we demonstrate that achiral colloidal nanocrystals, including Au and Ag nanocrystals, can assemble into long-range-ordered helical assemblies with the assistance of chiral molecules.

Vertebrate vision in dim-light environments is initiated by rod photoreceptor cells that express the photopigment rhodopsin, a G-protein coupled receptor (GPCR). To ensure efficient light capture, rhodopsin is densely packed into hundreds of membrane discs that are tightly stacked within the rod-shaped outer segment compartment. Along with its role in eliciting the visual response, rhodopsin serves as both a building block necessary for proper outer segment formation as well as a trafficking guide for a few outer segment resident membrane proteins.

The ability to observe the social behavior of others and use observed information to bias future action is a fundamental building block of social cognition . A foundational question is whether social observation and experience engage common circuit mechanisms that enable behavioral change. While classic studies on social learning have shown that aggressive behaviors can be learned through observation , it remains unclear whether aggression observation promotes persistent neural changes that generalize to new contexts.

Applications of genetic code expansion in live cells are widespread and continually emerging, yet they have been limited by their reliance on the supplementation of non-standard amino acids (nsAAs) to cell culturing media. While advances in cell-free biocatalysis are improving nsAA synthesis cost and sustainability, such processes remain reliant on multi-step processes of product isolation followed by supplementation to engineered cells. Here, we report the design of a modular and genetically encoded system that combines the steps of biosynthesis of diverse phenylalanine derivatives, which are the most frequently used family of nsAAs for genetic code expansion, and their site-specific incorporation within target proteins using a single engineered bacterial host.

Policies have been found to play a crucial role in supporting the health and well-being of individuals with autism. Yet, relatively few policy reviews are related to autism, and the current level of autism-associated policies and potential gaps in comparison with the World Health Organization recommendations remain unclear. Our study reviewed autism-associated policies, described policy characteristics, and determined potential policy gaps in mainland China.
