Multi‐tissue Metabolic GWAS and Drought‐Responsive Multi‐omics Reveal the Genetic Basis of the Quinoa Metabolome

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A multi‐omics framework combining multitissue genome‐wide association studies, metabolomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, and functional validation uncovers the genetic basis of specialized metabolism in quinoa. The study identifies hundreds of metabolite‐associated loci, prioritizes candidate genes for saponin, betalain, and flavonoid biosynthesis ...

Photochemical Reaction Discovery Enabled by the Dynamic Speciation of Copper Complexes

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
A strategy for accelerated photochemical reaction discovery is reported that harnesses the dynamic speciation of copper complexes, driven by their labile metal–ligand bonds. This platform simplifies reaction screening by combining an earth‐abundant copper(II) salt with commercially available ligands, which reversibly generate multiple catalytic species

Poly(acrylic acid)/Dipeptide Double-Network Hydrogel to Achieve a Highly Stretchable Strain Sensor

Chemosensors, 2022
Flexible and stretchable strain sensors can be applied for human health monitoring and disease diagnoses via the output of multiple biophysical signals. However, it is still a challenge to fabricate short-peptide-based strain sensors. Here, we prepared a

"Smart Decomposition" of Cyclic Alanine-Alanine Dipeptide by VUV Radiation: A Seed for the Synthesis of Biologically Relevant Species.

Journal of Physical Chemistry Letters, 2021
A combined experimental and theoretical study shows how the interaction of VUV radiation with cyclo-(alanine-alanine), one of the 2,5-diketopiperazines (DKPs), produces reactive oxazolidinone intermediates.

CA9‐Targeted PET Imaging for Noninvasive Discrimination of Clear Cell Renal Cell Carcinoma and Associated Tumor Biological Features

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
CA9‐targeted PET imaging could be a noninvasive approach to characterize clear cell renal cell carcinoma and associated tumor biology. PET uptake correlates with tumor CA9 expression and is linked to angiogenic activity, immune remodeling, and metabolic reprogramming.

Substrate‐Dependent Crosslinking by the Cytochrome P450 From Aminopyruvatide Biosynthesis

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Substitutions in the aminopyruvatide precursor peptide altered the C─C linkage formed from a YLY motif by the P450 ApyO to a N─C linkage in a WLY motif. Moreover, constitutional isomers crosslinked by C─C and C─O linkages were formed from YYY or YWY motifs. ABSTRACT Cytochrome P450s catalyze an array of reactions including crosslinking of aromatic side

Cyclic dipeptides from endophytic bacterium Bacillus velezensis as potential flavor precursors

Frontiers in Microbiology
Cyclic dipeptides represent a class of intriguing molecules with a wide range of biological activities, but their potential application as flavor precursors has not been previously reported. In this study, a flavor-producing bacterium Bacillus velezensis

Cyclic Dipeptides in the Induction of Maturation for Cancer Therapy

Journal of Pharmacy and Pharmacology, 2000
Abstract Studies have suggested a possible form of therapy based on the use of maturation-inducing compounds to induce differentiation of neoplastic cells and stimulate faster recovery of the normal cell population. The study of the effects of nine cyclic dipeptides on biochemical markers of differentiation implicated their potential to ...

Synthesis of leucine-based cyclic dipeptides

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of Belarus, Chemical Series, 2020
3-benzyl-6-isobutylpiperazin-2,5-dione [cyclo(leucylphenylalanyl)], 3-isobutylpiperazin-2,5-dione [cyclo(-leucylglycyl)] and 3-(sec-butyl-)-6-isobutyl-piperazine-2,5-dione [cyclo(leucylisoleucine)] have been obtained by cyclization of methyl esters of tert-butyloxycarbonyl derivatives of dipeptides, for the synthesis of which both carbodiimide-promoted

A Blood‐Derived Factor Rescues ALS: Platelet Factor 4 Activates OPTN‐Dependent Autophagy to Clear SOD1 Aggregates Independently of PINK1

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Systemic platelet factor 4 (PF4) is significantly depleted in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). Peripheral PF4 replenishment restores central proteostasis by driving OPTN‐dependent, PINK1‐independent selective autophagy in motor neurons. This intervention effectively clears toxic SOD1 aggregates, blunts glial activation, and preserves neuromuscular ...
