Expression of SCCmec cassette chromosome recombinases in methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus and Staphylococcus epidermidis [PDF]
Objectives Methicillin resistance in staphylococci is mediated by the mecA gene, which is carried on the staphylococcal cassette chromosome mec (SCCmec). SCCmec is responsible for vertical and horizontal transfer of methicillin resistance.

THERMAL DECARBOXYLATION OF CHLOROBENZOIC ACIDS
Thermal decarboxylation of o-chloro- and 2-4-dichlorobenzoic acids in resorcinol solution follows SE2. mechanism. The activation energies, frequency factors and entropies of activation are: 32300 cals. mole -1, 6.76x1010 sec. -1 and _12.0 cals. deg.-1 for o-chlornbenzoic acid, and 27600 cals mole-1, 3.98X 109sec.-1 and _17.6 cals.

We developed cyclic (diacyloxyiodo)arenes to overcome the reactivity/selectivity paradox in iodine chemistry. This new platform enables simple, one‐pot synthesis of diverse hypervalent iodine(III) reagents. The method is sustainable, catalytic, works for asymmetric reactions, and is biocompatible (e.g., modifying peptides).

A series of three tetranuclear and two trinuclear Co(III) carboxylate complexes are synthesized and thoroughly spectroscopically and electrochemically characterized. The relative stability of the tetranuclear versus trinuclear complexes is investigated by density functional theory calculations, and the infrared and ultraviolet/visible spectra are ...

Mutation analysis of the different tfd genes for degradation of chloroaromatic compounds in Ralstonia eutropha JMP134 [PDF]
Ralstonia eutropha JMP134 possesses two sets of similar genes for degradation of chloroaromatic compounds, tfdCDEFB (in short: tfd I cluster) and tfdD II C II E II F II B II (tfd II cluster). The significance of two sets of tfd genes for the organism has

Transient receptor potential cation channel subfamily M member 8 (TRPM8) is a cationic thermosensory channel crucial for cold sensation and menthol response. TRPM8 dysfunction leads to sensory symptoms such as cold allodynia. Targeting TRPM8 is important for treating diseases like peripheral neuropathies and cancer.
