Published: June 2024

Total synthesis of carbazomycins E and F was achieved by double functionalization of an aryne intermediate generated from a 2-aminobiphenyl derivative. The tethered amino group underwent nucleophilic addition to the aryne intermediate to construct the carbazole skeleton. The resulting carbanion was formylated to give the multiply substituted carbazole. This formyl group caused several problems. For example, it was difficult to perform regioselective demethylation of the methoxy group proximal to the formyl group without protecting the carbazole nitrogen. In addition, the formyl group was unexpectedly reduced to give a methoxymethyl group under heating conditions with copper iodide and sodium methoxide. Oxidation of this compound in the presence of water was effective for obtaining the formylated carbazole, leading to the first total synthesis of carbazomycin F.

Background: Iron deficiency (ID) is the most common nutritional deficiency among patients undergoing major surgery. Treatment of ID is straightforward, however implementing a comprehensive anemia management strategy within clinical routines is complex. Recently, reticulocyte hemoglobin content (Ret-He) has been evaluated as an early marker for ID diagnosis.

Blood-based epigenome-wide association study and prediction of alcohol consumption.

Alcohol consumption is an important risk factor for multiple diseases. It is typically assessed via self-report, which is open to measurement error through recall bias. Instead, molecular data such as blood-based DNA methylation (DNAm) could be used to derive a more objective measure of alcohol consumption by incorporating information from cytosine-phosphate-guanine (CpG) sites known to be linked to the trait.

Genome-wide identification of the Sec14 gene family and the response to salt and drought stress in soybean (Glycine max).

BMC Genomics

Henan Collaborative Innovation Center of Modern Biological Breeding, College of Agronomy, Henan Institute of Science and Technology, Xinxiang, 453003, China.

Background: The Sec14 domain is an ancient lipid-binding domain that evolved from yeast Sec14p and performs complex lipid-mediated regulatory functions in subcellular organelles and intracellular traffic. The Sec14 family is characterized by a highly conserved Sec14 domain, and is ubiquitously expressed in all eukaryotic cells and has diverse functions. However, the number and characteristics of Sec14 homologous genes in soybean, as well as their potential roles, remain understudied.
