RNA plays a critical role in many biol. processes, and the structures it adopts are intimately linked to those functions. Among many factors that contribute to RNA folding, van der Waals interactions between adjacent nucleobases stabilize structures in which the bases are stacked on top of one another. Here, we utilize fluorescence-detected CD spectroscopy (FDCD) to investigate base-stacking heterogeneity in RNA labeled with the fluorescent adenine analog 2-aminopurine (2-AP). Comparison of standard (transmission-detected) CD and FDCD spectra reveals that in dinucleotides, 2-AP fluorescence is emitted almost exclusively by unstacked mols. In a trinucleotide, some fluorescence is emitted by a population of stacked and highly quenched mols., but more than half originates from a minor ~10% population of unstacked mols. The combination of FDCD and standard CD measurements reveals the prevalence of stacked and unstacked conformational subpopulations as well as their relative fluorescence quantum yields.

The authors previously reported potent hit compound (I) inhibiting the wild-type influenza A virus A/HK/68 (H3N2) and A/M2-S31N mutant viruses A/WS/33 (H1N1), with its latter activity quite weak. To further increase its potency, a structure-activity relationship study of a series of imidazole-linked pinanamine derivatives was conducted by modifying the imidazole ring of this compound Several compounds of this series inhibited the amantadine-sensitive virus at low micromolar concentrations Among them, (II) (R1,R2,R3=alkyl) was the most potent compound, which was identified as being active on an amantadine-sensitive virus through blocking of the viral M2 ion channel. Furthermore, II markedly inhibited the amantadine-resistant virus (IC50 = 3.4 μM) and its activity increased by almost 24-fold compared to initial compound, with its action mechanism being not M2 channel mediated.

The diverse optical, magnetic, and electronic behaviors of most colloidal semiconductor nanocrystals emerge from materials with limited structural and elemental compositions Conductive metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) possess rich compositions with complex architectures but remain unexplored as nanocrystals, hindering their incorporation into scalable devices. Here, we report the controllable synthesis of conductive MOF nanoparticles based on Fe(1,2,3-triazolate)2. Sizes can be tuned to as small as 5.5 nm, ensuring indefinite colloidal stability. These solution-processable MOFs can be analyzed by solution-state spectroscopy and electrochem. and cast into conductive thin films with excellent uniformity. This unprecedented anal. of MOF materials reveals a strong size dependence in optical and electronic behaviors sensitive to the intrinsic porosity and guest-host interactions of MOFs. These results provide a radical departure from typical MOF characterization, enabling insights into phys. properties otherwise impossible with bulk analogs while offering a roadmap for the future of MOF nanoparticle synthesis and device fabrication.

Vora, Ashish; Zhou, Wenshuo; Londono-Renteria, Berlin; Woodson, Michael; Sherman, Michael B.; Colpitts, Tonya M.; Neelakanta, Girish; Sultana, Hameeda published the artcile< Arthropod EVs mediate dengue virus transmission through interaction with a tetraspanin domain containing glycoprotein Tsp29Fb>, Computed Properties of 6823-69-4, the main research area is Tsp29Fb E protein dengue virus transmission extracellular vesicle Aedes; HSP70; Tsp29Fb; arthropod EVs; dengue; transmission.

Dengue virus (DENV) is a mosquito-borne flavivirus that causes dengue fever in humans, worldwide. Using in vitro cell lines derived from Aedes albopictus and Aedes aegypti, the primary vectors of DENV, we report that DENV2/DENV3-infected cells secrete extracellular vesicles (EVs), including exosomes, containing infectious viral RNA and proteins. A full-length DENV2 genome, detected in arthropod EVs, was infectious to naive mosquito and mammalian cells, including human-skin keratinocytes and blood endothelial cells. Cryo-electron microscopy showed mosquito EVs with a size range from 30 to 250 nm. Treatments with RNase A, Triton X-100, and 4G2 antibody-bead binding assays showed that infectious DENV2-RNA and proteins are contained inside EVs. Viral plaque formation and dilution assays also showed securely contained infectious viral RNA and proteins in EVs are transmitted to human cells. Up-regulated HSP70 upon DENV2 infection showed no role in viral replication and transmission through EVs. In addition, qRT-PCR and immunoblotting results revealed that DENV2 up-regulates expression of a mosquito tetraspanin-domain-containing glycoprotein, designated as Tsp29Fb, in A. aegypti mosquitoes, cells, and EVs. RNAi-mediated silencing and antibody blocking of Tsp29Fb resulted in reduced DENV2 loads in both mosquito cells and EVs. Immunoprecipitation showed Tsp29Fb to directly interact with DENV2 E-protein. Furthermore, treatment with GW4869 (exosome-release inhibitor) affected viral burden, direct interaction of Tsp29Fb with E-protein and EV-mediated transmission of viral RNA and proteins to naive human cells. In summary, we report a very important finding on EV-mediated transmission of DENV2 from arthropod to mammalian cells through interactions with an arthropod EVs-enriched marker Tsp29Fb.

He, Yanping; Chang, Yangyang; Chen, Da; Liu, Juewen published the artcile< Probing Local Folding Allows Robust Metal Sensing Based on a Na+-Specific DNAzyme>, Application of C5H5N5, the main research area is sodium DNAzyme metal sensing probing; DNA; aptamers; biosensors; fluorescence; sodium.

Fluorescent metal sensors based on DNA often rely on changes in end-to-end distance or local environmental near fluorophore labels. Because metal ions can also nonspecifically interact with DNA through various mechanisms, such as charge screening, base binding, and increase or decrease in duplex stability, robust and specific sensing of metal ions has been quite challenging. In this work, a side-by-side comparison of two signaling strategies on a Na+-specific DNAzyme that contained a Na+-binding aptamer was performed. The duplex regions of the DNAzyme was systematically shortened and its effect was studied by using a 2-aminopurine (2AP)-labeled substrate strand. Na+ binding affected the local environmental of the 2AP label and increased its fluorescence. A synergistic process of Na+ binding and forming the duplex on the 5′-end of the enzyme strand was observed, and this end was close to the aptamer loop. The effect on the 3′-end is more continuous, and the stem needs to form first before Na+ can bind. With an optimized substrate binding arm, a FRET-based sensor has been designed by labeling the two ends of a cis form of the DNAzyme with two fluorophores. In this case, Na+ failed to show a distinct difference from that of Li+ or K+; thus indicating that probing changes to the local environment allows more robust sensing of metal ions.

A high-throughput screen of the ligand binding domain of the nuclear receptor retinoic acid-related orphan receptor gamma t (RORγt) employing a thermal shift assay yielded a quinoline tertiary alc. hit. Optimization of the 2-, 3- and 4-positions of the quinoline core using structure-activity relationships and structure-based drug design methods led to the discovery of a series of modulators with improved RORγt inhibitory potency and inverse agonism properties.

Marcus published the artcile< Lighting Up DNA with the Environment-Sensitive Bright Adenine Analogue qAN4>, Category: imidazoles-derivatives, the main research area is qAN4 DNA oligonucleotide solid phase synthesis photophys property; DNA; FRET; base pairing; nucleobase analogues; photophysics.

The fluorescent adenine analog qAN4 was recently shown to possess promising photophys. properties, including a high brightness as a monomer. Here we report the synthesis of the phosphoramidite of qAN4 and its successful incorporation into DNA oligonucleotides using standard solid-phase synthesis. CD and thermal melting studies indicate that the qAN4-modification has a stabilizing effect on the B-form of DNA. Moreover, qAN4 base-pairs selectively with thymine with mismatch penalties similar to those of mismatches of adenine. The low energy absorption band of qAN4 inside DNA has its peak around 358 nm and the emission in duplex DNA is partly quenched and blue-shifted (ca. 410 nm), compared to the monomeric form. The spectral properties of the fluorophore also show sensitivity to pH; a property that may find biol. applications. Quantum yields in single-stranded DNA range from 1-29 % and in duplex DNA from 1-7 %. In combination with the absorptive properties, this gives an average brightness inside duplex DNA of 275 M-1 cm-1, more than five times higher than the most used environment-sensitive fluorescent base analog, 2-aminopurine. Finally, we show that qAN4 can be used to advantage as a donor for interbase FRET applications in combination with adenine analog qAnitro as an acceptor.

Wang, Lizhi; Liu, Yang; Lu, Chanfang; Yang, Zhouping; Liu, Yaqing; Wang, Yanying; Rao, Hanbing; Zhang, Wei; Wang, Xianxiang published the artcile< Ultrasonic synthesis of nano-PrO1.8 as nanozyme for colorimetric determination of trans-resveratrol>, Recommanded Product: 1-carboxymethyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride, the main research area is trans resveratrol nanozyme colorimetric determination ultrasonic synthesis.

In this study, nano-PrO1.8 were synthesized successfully in ionic liquids (ILs) as template assisted ultrasonic irradiation method. Various precipitating agents and different types of ILs were investigated to determine their resp. effects on the morphol. of the end products. Using hydrazine hydrate as a precipitating agent and 1-carboxymethyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride as a template, spherical structure with an average diameter of 250 nm was obtained. It is worth noting that the prepared material exhibits high peroxidase-like activity and weak oxidase activity. Then, the catalytic oxidation capacity of the nano-PrO1.8 was evaluated by the peroxidase substrate 3,3′,5,5′-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB). The colorless of TMB can be converted into blue oxidized TMB (oxTMB) in the presence of nano-PrO1.8, but trans-resveratrol inhibited its peroxidase-like activity and weakened the blue color. Hence, we developed a sensitive, selective and simple colorimetric method for trans-resveratrol detection using nano-PrO1.8 as peroxidase-like enzyme. A linear relationship was found in the range of 0.30μM-16μM trans-resveratrol with the detection limit of 0.29μM. Satisfactory results were achieved when the method was submitted to the determination of trans-resveratrol in white wine samples.

Hernandez, Elisa; Santiago, Ruben; Belinchon, Alejandro; Maria Vaquerizo, Gema; Moya, Cristian; Navarro, Pablo; Palomar, Jose published the artcile< Universal and low energy-demanding platform to produce propylene carbonate from CO2 using hydrophilic ionic liquids>, Synthetic Route of 700370-07-6, the main research area is ionic liquid catalyst propylene carbonate carbon dioxide.

Ionic liquids (ILs) have been extensively proposed as efficient catalysts to promote CO2 cycloaddition reaction to epoxides for producing cyclic carbonates. Recently, liquid-liquid extraction with water as an enhancer approach to regenerate ILs and to purify the product was proposed, since it reduces energy consumption and enhances the neat catalytic activity of the IL due to hydroxyl groups of water. In this work, a comprehensive sample of homogeneous IL catalysts proposed in the literature is exptl. evaluated both in the catalytic step and in its separation by liquid-liquid extraction with water, to demonstrate the universality of the proposed reaction-separation proposal for hydrophilic ILs. Then the complete processes for CO2 conversion to propylene carbonate were modelled using Aspen Plus to compare the catalyst/product separation efficiency and the specific energy consumption using liquid-liquid extraction and distillation-based platforms. The energy consumption is significantly lower using liquid-liquid platform (1.1-1.3 kWh/kgPC) than distillation one (2.4-3.1 kWh/kgPC). It is concluded that hydrophilic ionic liquids, as those formed by [EtOHmim] cation and halide anions, are promising catalysts since they allow: (i) reducing the process energy consumption due to their high catalytic activity and (ii) full catalyst recovering, even at high catalyst loadings, by improving the water extractive properties for IL separation from PC.
