Autocatalysis in Eschenmoser Coupling Reactions [PDF]
Chemistry – A European Journal, 2023 AbstractThe Eschenmoser coupling reaction (ECR) of thioamides with electrophiles is believed to proceed via thiirane intermediates. However, little is known about converting the intermediates into ECR products. Previous mechanistic studies involved external thiophiles to remove the sulfur atom from the intermediates.

Exponential Amplification Using Photoredox Autocatalysis [PDF]
Journal of the American Chemical Society, 2021 Exponential molecular amplification such as the polymerase chain reaction is a powerful tool that allows ultrasensitive biodetection. Here we report a new exponential amplification strategy based on photoredox autocatalysis, where eosin Y, a photocatalyst, amplifies itself by activating a non-fluorescent eosin Y derivative (EYH2) under green light. The

Circadian rhythmicity by autocatalysis. [PDF]
PLoS Computational Biology, 2006 The temperature compensated in vitro oscillation of cyanobacterial KaiC phosphorylation, the first example of a thermodynamically closed system showing circadian rhythmicity, only involves the three Kai proteins (KaiA, KaiB, and KaiC) and ATP.

Autocatalysis, Autopoiesis, and the Opportunity Cost of Individuality [PDF]
BiomimeticsEver since Varela and Maturana proposed the concept of autopoiesis as the minimal requirement for life, there has been a focus on cellular systems that erect topological boundaries to separate themselves from their surrounding environment.

Autocatalysis in a Reconstituted Chloroplast System [PDF]
Plant Physiology, 1974 In whole plants and intact chloroplasts, photosynthesis does not reach its full rate immediately upon illumination but only after a lag which is believed to reflect an autocatalytic increase in the concentration of carbon cycle intermediates. Autocatalysis has now been observed in a reconstituted system containing envelope-free chloroplasts augmented ...

Driving forces in the origins of life [PDF]
Open Biology, 2021 What were the physico-chemical forces that drove the origins of life? We discuss four major prebiotic ‘discoveries’: persistent sampling of chemical reaction space; sequence-encodable foldable catalysts; assembly of functional pathways; and encapsulation

Martensite’s Logistic Paradigm
Materials Research, 2021 This work introduces a deterministic approach to the martensite transformation curve. Martensite is a nucleation-controlled transformation that has two characteristics: autocatalysis and auto-accommodation.
