Cellulase was effectively immobilized onto an epoxy-bound chitosan-modified zinc metal-organic framework (epoxy/ZIF-8/CS/cellulase) support, yielding a conjugation rate of 0.64 ± 0.02 mg/cm2 and retaining 80.

They can act as modification sites for enzymes and as recognition sites for peptide binding domains. SH2 domains bind specifically to tyrosine-phosphorylated proteins, with the affinity of the interaction depending strongly on the flanking sequence.

This study investigates the Cope elimination reaction, focusing on the mechanistic shift between concerted and stepwise pathways influenced by substituent effects. Experimental approaches, including kinetic isotope effects (KIEs) and linear free energy relationships (LFERs), alongside density functional theory (DFT) computations, were employed to explore the influence of substituents on the reaction kinetics and pathways. Our findings reveal temperature- and substituent-dependent partitioning between the concerted syn-β elimination and the stepwise E1cB mechanism, providing deeper insights into the mechanistic diversity of elimination reactions.

2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine-1-oxyl (TEMPO) derivatives are typical catholytes in aqueous organic redox flow batteries (AORFBs), but reported lifetime of them is limited. We find that the increase of Hirshfeld charge decreases the Gibbs free energy change (ΔG) values of side reactions of TEMPO, a near-linear relationship, and then exacerbates their degradation. Here we predict and synthesize a TEMPO derivative, namely TPP-TEMPO, by analyzing the Hirshfeld charge.
