Copper(I)-catalyzed asymmetric alkylation of α-imino-esters
Asymmetric alkylation of enolates is one of the most direct and important reactions to prepare α-chiral carbonyl compounds. Except for the classical methods that rely on the use of chiral auxiliaries, asymmetric catalysis emerged as a powerful tool ...

Asymmetric catalysis: An enabling science [PDF]
Chirality of organic molecules plays an enormous role in areas ranging from medicine to material science, yet the synthesis of such entities in one enantiomeric form is one of the most difficult challenges. The advances being made stem from the convergence of a broader understanding of theory and how structure begets function, the developments in the ...

Observation of Hyperpositive Non-Linear Effects in Asymmetric Catalysis [PDF]
Asymmetric amplification is a phenomenon that plays a key role in the emergence of homochirality in life. In asymmetric catalysis, theoretical and experimental models have been investigated for understanding how chiral amplification is possible, in ...

Emerging experimental and computational methods for studying redox‐regulated structural transitions
Redox reactions can reshape proteins and alter how they behave in cells, with important consequences for health and disease. This review explores emerging experimental and computational approaches for discovering these redox‐sensitive protein switches, revealing their structural effects, and predicting their behavior, opening new opportunities to ...

The Shewanella oneidensis Fic enzyme SoFic targets the switch‐I region of EF‐Tu for AMPylation
Fic enzymes mediate diverse post‐translational modifications across all domains of life, including AMPylation. Prokaryotic EF‐Tu can be AMPylated and deAMPylated by the conserved Fic enzyme SoFic. Structural and biochemical approaches were used to characterize the effect of AMPylation on EF‐Tu, SoFic's enzymatic activities, and the enzyme‐target ...

Artificial molecular machines and motors—Design and control of nanoscale motion
Molecules are constantly moving because of thermal fluctuations, but random motion alone cannot be exploited to perform directional tasks. Artificial molecular machines use chemical, electrical, or light energy to bias this motion. Molecular shuttles, rotary motors, and supramolecular pumps illustrate how nanoscale movement can be controlled and ...
