9,9-Dimethyl-9-silafluorene [PDF]
The title compound, C14H14Si, crystallizes with two almost identical molecules (r.m.s. deviation = 0.080 Å for all non-H atoms) in the asymmetric unit. All atoms of the silafluorene moiety lie in a common plane (r.m.s.

Clinical features of patients with homozygous complement C4A or C4B deficiency.
IntroductionHomozygous deficiencies of complement C4A or C4B are detected in 1-10% of populations. In genome-wide association studies C4 deficiencies are missed because the genetic variation of C4 is complex.

Synthesis of 2-Acylphenol and Flavene Derivatives from the Ruthenium-Catalyzed Oxidative C-H Acylation of Phenols with Aldehydes [PDF]
The cationic ruthenium hydride complex [(C6H6)(PCy3)(CO)RuH]+BF4− has been found to be an effective catalyst for the oxidative C–H coupling reaction of phenols with aldehydes to give 2-acylphenol compounds.

Complete genome analysis of the C4 subgenotype strains of enterovirus 71: predominant recombination C4 viruses persistently circulating in China for 14 years. [PDF]
Genetic recombination is a well-known phenomenon for enteroviruses. To investigate the genetic characterization and the potential recombination of enterovirus 71 (EV71) circulating in China, we determined the 16 complete genome sequences of EV71 isolated

Structural characterization of the C4a anaphylatoxin from rat [PDF]
The C4a anaphylatoxin was purified from rat sera activated by heat-aggregated IgG. The anaphylatoxin was isolated by a three-step purification procedure and was judged to be homogeneous based on visualization of a single stained band after electrophoresis on both cellulose acetate membrane strips and on 9% SDS-polyacrylamide gels.
