Chiral separation of chloroalkanes with the chromatographic column onboard Martian rovers
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Computer image of the Rosalind Franklin Rover of ESA's ExoMars mission. ExoMars is scheduled to land on planet Mars in Oxia Planum in 2029. This area represents an interesting spot to look for biosignatures. Investigations of ExoMars include measurement on molecular chirality. We show that chiral chloroalkanes, that have been identified on Mars, can be

Liquid-Chromatographic Methods for Carboxylic Acids in Biological Samples
Molecules, 2020 Carboxyl-bearing low-molecular-weight compounds such as keto acids, fatty acids, and other organic acids are involved in a myriad of metabolic pathways owing to their high polarity and solubility in biological fluids. Various disease areas such as cancer,

Photocatalytic direct borylation of carboxylic acids
Nature Communications, 2022 Boronic acids are useful reagents in organic synthesis and thus methods to prepare these compounds under mild conditions are desirable. Here, the authors synthesize boronic acids via photocatalytic decarboxylation of benzoic acids followed by borylation;

Importin 7 mediates the nuclear import of HIV‐1 integrase via a specific interacting interface
FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.HIV‐1 integrase enables viral DNA integration into the host genome. By binding to the core domain of the host protein Importin 7 via its C‐terminal domain, the integrase is transported across the nuclear membrane into the nucleus, where integration of the viral genome into host DNA takes place. This translocation is a critical step for subsequent viral

Influence of chain length and saturation on carboxylic acid pyrolysis mechanisms
Fuel Processing TechnologyThis study investigates radical-driven deoxygenation mechanisms during the non-catalytic pyrolysis of saturated and unsaturated carboxylic acids. Pyrolysis experiments were conducted at 410 °C, between 0.5 and 2 h, using carboxylic acids of varying ...

In silico and in vitro exploration of a tyrosinase for biocatalytic production of catechols
FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.Tyrosinase from Ralstonia pseudosolanacearum is a promising biocatalyst for producing valuable catechols from monophenol substrates. This tyrosinase is uniquely suited to this due to its high monophenolase : diphenolase ratio. We combined in silico docking and in vivo kinetic characterisation of this tyrosinase with 11 industrially relevant monophenols,

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.The brown marmorated stink bug, Halyomorpha halys, mainly secretes 4‐oxo‐(E)‐2‐hexenal, (E)‐2‐decenal, dodecane and tridecane, a mixture representative of that released by many heteropterans. We demonstrated that H. halys can synthesise these secretory components de novo using dietary glucose.

Direct deoxygenative borylation of carboxylic acids
Nature Communications, 2021 Converting a carboxylic acid into a boronic acid, which makes a useful chemical handle from a feedstock chemical, currently relies on decarboxylation and requires metal catalysts and prior functionalization.

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.In this study, a novel esterase from the thermoacidophilic archaeon Thermoplasma acidophilum was biochemically and structurally characterized. Our results demonstrate that Ta0887 is a highly thermostable esterase that preferentially hydrolyzes p‐nitrophenyl hexanoate and possesses an α‐helical cap domain that likely contributes to its substrate ...
