The function and mechanism of protein acylation in the regulation of viral infection

Virulence
Protein acylation modification is one of the most important protein post-translational modifications, which regulates the function of the protein by adding acyl groups to the residues of the protein.

Unveiling Lactylation: A Novel Frontier in Cancer Stemness and Therapy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Tumor metabolism and epigenetic regulation are intrinsically linked. This review highlights lactylation as a pivotal bridge connecting these processes, acting as an active epigenetic effector in cancer stemness. We delineate how lactylation orchestrates the cancer stem cell landscape and evaluate its regulatory networks.

Versatility of Acyl-Acyl Carrier Protein Synthetases

Chemistry & Biology, 2014
The acyl carrier protein (ACP) requires posttranslational modification with a 4'-phosphopantetheine arm for activity, and this thiol-terminated modification carries cargo between enzymes in ACP-dependent metabolic pathways. We show that acyl-ACP synthetases (AasSs) from different organisms are able to load even, odd, and unnatural fatty acids onto E ...

Synthesis of 5-acylindoles via regioselective acylation of 3-trifluoroacetylindole [PDF]

, 2003
5-Acylindoles were synthesized by regioselective acylation of 3-trifluoroacetylindole with acyl chloride under the catalysis of Lewis acids, followed by hydrolysis of trifluoroacetyl and decarboxylation.

Non‐Dilute Synthesis of Macrodiolides and Macrotetrolides Enabled by Confinement Catalysis

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Confinement catalysis within a hexameric resorcin[4]arene capsule enables macrolactonization under non‐dilute conditions (up to 0.1 M), overcoming the limitations of high‐dilution protocols (0.1–10 mM). This strategy provides direct access to 18–32‐membered macrodiolides and 26–32‐membered macrotetrolides in one pot and unlocks previously inaccessible ...

Selective acylation of chitosan oligomers by several cyclic anhydrides as a 13C NMR quantification method

Carbohydrate Polymer Technologies and Applications
The chemistry of chitosan is a promising way to afford biobased and biodegradable complex materials using highly reactive compounds such as anhydrides. However, the potential applications are limited due to the absence of control over the acylation and ...

Gut Microbiota, Immunity, and Metabolism in the Progression From Chronic Liver Disease to Hepatocellular Carcinoma

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This review explains how chronic liver injury progresses toward hepatocellular carcinoma through interconnected changes in gut microbes, metabolism, immunity, fibrosis, and diet. It highlights microbial metabolites, bile‐acid signaling, immune dysfunction, and nutritional or microbiome‐based interventions as opportunities to identify risk earlier ...

Palladium Complex Catalyzed Acylation of Allylic Esters with Acylstannanes:  Complementary Method to the Acylation with Acylsilanes [PDF]

, 2016
Palladium-catalyzed acylation of allylic trifluoroacetates (2) using acylstannanes (1) is reported. The reaction serves as a complementary method to the previously reported acylation with acylsilane (4).

Kinetically Stable Boron‐Heteroatom Bonds

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
This study investigates the kinetic stability of boron‐heteroatom bonds in N‐methyliminodiacetic acid (MIDA) boronates. The hemilabile nature of the ligand enables the synthesis of molecules that would otherwise be considered too hydrolytically labile. Depending on the structure, acid‐promoted migration of the boryl group was found to produce compounds
