Recombinant erabutoxin a (Ea(r)) has been crystallized by vapour diffusion in hanging drops. The crystals belong to space group P2(1)2(1)2(1) with cell dimensions a = 55.8 A, b = 53.4 A, c = 40.8 A. Diffraction data have been recorded on a FAST detector up to 2.0 A. The atomic crystal structure of Ea(r) has been determined by initial refinement of the structure of the isotoxin erabutoxin b (Eb) the crystals of which were grown under identical conditions. The R-factor was 23% at 2.0 A resolution. The secondary and tertiary structures of Ea(r) are shown to be identical with that of wild-type Eb, within the experimental error.

This perpective delves into the emerging field of matere bonds, a novel type of noncovalent interaction involving group 7 elements such as manganese, technetium, and rhenium. Matere bonds, a new member of the σ-hole family where metal atoms act as electron acceptors, have been shown experimentally and theoretically to play significant roles in the self-assembly and stabilization of supramolecular structures both in solid-state and solution-phase environments. This perspective article explores the physical nature of these interactions, emphasizing their directionality and structural influence in various supramolecular architectures.

The monoprotonated species of 2-aminomalonyl difluoride, namely, 1,3-difluoro-1,3-dioxopropan-2-aminium dihydrogen trifluoride, [CHFNO][HF], was synthesized from sulfur tetrafluoride in anhydrous hydrogen fluoride (aHF) with [NH][CHNO] as the starting material. The solvent was removed and the salt was dissolved in aHF and crystallized. In the solid state, the three-dimensional network is built by medium-strong N-H.

The layer-stacking mode of a two-dimensional (2D) material plays a dominant role either in its topology or properties, but remains challenging to control. Herein, we developed alkali-metal ion-regulating synthetic control on the stacking structure of a vinylene-linked covalent triazine framework (termed spc-CTF) for improving hydrogen peroxide (HO) photoproduction. Upon the catalysis of EtONa in Knoevenagel polycondensation, a typical eclipsed stacking mode (spc-CTF-4@AA) was built, while a staggered one (spc-CTF-4@AB) was constructed using LiOH.
