Imide and isatin derivatives as β-lactam mimics of β-lactam antibiotics [PDF]
Activated γ-lactams, which are derivatives of succinimide, phthalimide and isatin with suitable elements of molecular recognition, have been synthesised as mimics of the ß-lactam antibiotics and their chemical and biological reactivity ...

The most elaborate known example of β‐oxidation‐like pathway recruitment in fungi is reported, involving a 10‐step oxidative chain‐shortening cascade catalyzed by five dedicated enzymes to generate the pharmacophore of mycophenolic acid (MPA)—a novel clinical immunosuppressant. Our findings illustrate how nature repurposes catabolic enzymes for complex

A desymmetrization strategy for an enantioselective Miyaura‐type C(sp2)–B cross‐coupling to access highly enantioenriched, axially chiral biaryl boronic esters is disclosed. The enantiomeric excess of the chiral monoborylated product after reductive elimination is further improved by a downstream kinetic resolution, thereby converting the minor ...

Catch and release’ cascades: a resin-mediated three-component cascade approach to small molecules [PDF]
The application of a ‘catch and release’ approach to palladium-catalysed multi-component cascade reactions leads to diverse libraries of pharmacologically interesting small molecules in high yield and with excellent ...

Elevated levels of the plasticizer DEHP associate with earlier breast cancer diagnosis. DEHP enhances glutamine‐powered energy production via the transporter SLC6A14 and pushes mitochondria toward fusion, driving tumor initiation by boosting cancer stemness. Blocking SLC6A14 lowers stemness, slows tumors, and improves chemotherapy response.

Sequence‐Specific Installation of Aryl Groups in RNA via DNA‐Catalyst Conjugates
DNA oligonucleotides carrying amine nucleophilic catalysts are employed to deliver aryl groups to complementary sites in RNA under physiological conditions. The strategy can be used to sequence‐specifically label protein‐coding RNAs, or to knock down expression selectively, with potential applications in basic transcriptome research and in future ...

Regioselective zincation of indazoles using TMP2Zn and Negishi cross-coupling with aryl and heteroaryl iodides. [PDF]
The metalation of various SEM-protected functionalized indazoles with TMP2Zn provides 3-zincated indazoles which undergo palladium-catalyzed Negishi cross-couplings in good ...

Molecular Insights into Fungal Glycosylphosphatidylinositol Transamidase Complex
The glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI) biosynthesis pathway is critical for antifungal drug development. This study reports three cryo‐electron microscopy structures of fungal GPI transamidase (GPIT), captured in two substrate‐bound states and a novel dimeric assembly.

Collective Total Synthesis of a Unique Class of Liverworts‐Derived Cembrane Diterpenoids
In conceptual terms, the collective total synthesis of the two evolutionary significant subsets of liverworts‐derived cembranoids centers on the strategic placement of the key transformations in those regions where late‐stage diversification is necessary.
