AI Article Synopsis

  • The manuscript outlines a method to synthesize γ-lactam using cyclobutanones and an oxime aminating reagent with a small amount of Brønsted acid.
  • This approach utilizes a safer, more stable oxime derivative instead of highly explosive hydroxylamine compounds.
  • It also details how the resulting γ-lactam can be converted into γ-aminobutyric acid derivatives and discusses the reaction mechanism, including considerations of the isotope effect.

Article Abstract

This manuscript describes the synthesis of γ-lactam from the nitrogen insertion reaction of cyclobutanones using an oxime as an aminating reagent with a catalytic amount of Brønsted acid. This method was employed with a more stable oxime reagent, which is a precursor analog of hydroxylamine derivatives with explosive properties. The reaction was tolerated by various substituted cyclobutanones and less strained five- or six-membered ketones. The obtained γ-lactam products could be transformed into γ-aminobutyric acid derivatives ring-opening hydrolysis. The reaction mechanism is discussed from the perspective of the isotope effect, .

Development of translationally active cell lysates from different filamentous fungi for application in cell-free protein synthesis.

Institute of Biotechnology, Brandenburg University of Technology Cottbus-Senftenberg, Universitätsplatz 1, Senftenberg 01968, Germany. Electronic address:

There is an enormous potential for cell-free protein synthesis (CFPS) systems based on filamentous fungi in view of their simple, fast and mostly inexpensive cultivation with high biomass space-time yields and in view of their catalytic capacity. In 12 of the 22 different filamentous fungi examined, in vitro translation of at least one of the two reporter proteins GFP and firefly luciferase was detected. The lysates showing translation of a reporter protein usually were able to synthesize a functional cell-free expressed unspecific peroxygenase (UPO) from the basidiomycete Cyclocybe (Agrocybe) aegerita.

Cinnamic Acid Sugar Ester Derivatives (CASEDs) are a class of natural compounds that exhibit several interesting biological activities. However, to date, no examples of their use in sunscreen formulations have been reported. Here, we describe the synthesis of a series of novel cinnamic acid esters of glucose (4a-g), ribose (4h) and lactose (4i) starting from the respective acetals 3.

The recent development of modular universal chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell platforms that use bifunctional adaptor intermediates to redirect engineered T-cell effector function has greatly expanded the capabilities of adoptive T-cell therapy, enabling safer and more comprehensive cancer treatment. However, universal CAR receptor systems rely on unstable transient recognition of tag-coupled intermediates for T-cell activation, and the array of targeting intermediates has been limited to antibodies and small molecules. Addressing these shortcomings, we engineered universal CAR T-cell receptors that can be covalently modified with synthetic biomaterials by accelerated SpyCatcher003-SpyTag003 chemistry for cancer-cell targeting.
