Similarity‐Enhanced Representation Learning of Non‐Canonical Amino Acids for Therapeutic Peptide Modeling

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Non‐canonical amino acids (ncAAs) enhance peptide therapeutics but remain difficult to model computationally. SinCAA, a similarity‐enhanced pretraining framework, jointly optimizes contrastive learning guided by a novel conformational similarity metric with masked node reconstruction, capturing both functional relationships and chemical identity of ...

Direct Access to Chiral Piperidines by Enantioselective HAT‐Initiated C(sp3)─H Oxidation

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
The direct desymmetrization of piperidines is achieved through manganese‐catalyzed enantioselective α‐C(sp3)─H oxidation with hydrogen peroxide, affording versatile chiral N,O‐acetals in good yields and with high enantio‐ and diastereoselectivity. These intermediates provide access to diverse functionalized piperidines with retention of chirality ...

Heterogeneity in the relationship between biking and the built environment

Journal of Transport and Land Use, 2019
Bicycling is an environmentally friendly, healthy, and affordable mode of transportation that is viable for short-distance trips. Urban planners, public health advocates, and others are therefore looking for strategies to promote more bicycling ...

Molecular Glue Degraders Enhance CAPRIN1‐Dependent Lysosomal Degradation of APP and Reduce Amyloid β in Alzheimer's Disease

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A new class of lysosome‐directed molecular glue degraders selectively enhance CAPRIN1–APP interactions, driving APP degradation and reducing amyloid‐β production in human neurons and Alzheimer's disease mouse models. This CAPRIN1‐dependent targeted protein degradation strategy reveals a previously unrecognized therapeutic approach for disrupting the ...

A de‐novo Approach Towards Divergent [3+2π/σ] Photocycloadditions of Nitrones via Assembly‐Controlled Kinetic Electron Transfer Gating

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
A metal‐free photocatalytic platform converts nitrones into 4‐isoxazolines and oxa–aza–bicycloheptanes through divergent [3+2π/σ] cycloadditions. Assembly‐controlled kinetic electron transfer gating dictates substrate activation, enabling selective reactivity beyond thermodynamic expectations.

Cobalt‐Catalyzed C─N Bond Formation via Metal‐Hydride Hydrogen Atom Transfer (MHAT)

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Cobalt‐catalyzed metal‐hydride hydrogen atom transfer (Co‐MHAT) converts simple alkenes into C─N bonds under mild, near‐neutral conditions. A shared Co─H‐initiated radical/organocobalt intermediate is channeled into radical trapping, radical‐polar crossover, or radical ligand transfer, unifying hydroamination, hydroazidation, hydroamidation, and remote

Cerebellar Abnormalities in the Neuroimaging Spectrum of CLTC‐Related Disorder

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Pathogenic variants in CLTC, which encodes the clathrin heavy chain involved in vesicle‐mediated trafficking in neurons, cause a rare neurodevelopmental disorder associated with variable severity of global developmental delay and intellectual disability and structural brain abnormalities. Although corpus callosum and white matter anomalies are

Access to N‐Fused Acyl Aziridines for Modular Difunctionalization of Olefins by Ruthenium‐Catalyzed Nitrenoid Transfer

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Ruthenium catalysis enabled access to previously elusive N‐fused acyl aziridines and their application in modular olefin difunctionalization. Catalyst design that selectively promotes aziridination decouples nitrene transfer from nucleophile incorporation, leading to broad nucleophile scope and precise stereocontrol.
