Via in silico docking of pyrichalasin H on G‐ and F‐actin, the C21‐OAc moiety is identified as a modifiable site tolerated for actin binding. Fluorescent [11]cytochalasan probes from pyrichalasin H and epoxycytochalasin C are obtained by selective C21‐OAc hydrolysis and acylation.

Multicomponent Synthesis of Fluorine‐Containing Bioactive Compounds and Drugs
Multicomponent reactions are robust synthetic tools to assamble complex polyheterocycles and other interesting molecular architectures with potential application in medicinal chemistry, including their fluorine‐containing analogues. Fluorine atoms placed strategically into bioactive molecules often enhance essential pharmacokinetic parameters like ...

Variants at position R196 in cytoskeletal β‐actin are the most common variants associated with Baraitser–Winter cerebrofrontofacial syndrome and result in craniofacial anomalies and neurodevelopmental disorders, most likely due to neuronal migration defects. This study explores the molecular mechanisms of p.R196 variants using purified proteins.

Tryptophan‐Selective Chemical Modification of Peptides by Thioether‐Mediated Sulfenylation
A thioether‐mediated sulfenylation method based on 4‐fluorophenyl 3‐nitro‐2‐pyridinesulfenate (Npys‐OPh(pF)) is developed for Trp‐selective chemical modification. This sulfenylation proceeds under mild, metal‐free, and weakly acidic conditions and is broadly applicable to the chemical modification of various Trp‐containing peptides as well as the late ...

Mechanisms and aetiology‐dependent treatment of acute liver failure
Abstract This review compiles the mechanisms of acute liver failure (ALF) as well as the current and potential therapeutic approaches, including aetiology‐specific treatment, and the issues encountered with such approaches. On a cellular level, ALF is characterized by massive hepatocyte death due to different types of cellular demise.

[Poisonings with Amanita phalloides].
Amanita phalloides is the most dangerous, poisonous mushroom species in our climatic conditions. It is the cause of 90-95% of all deaths due to mushroom poisoning, a-Amanitin, a polymerase RNA II inhibitor, is mainly responsible for the Amanita phalloides toxic property.
