Light-Driven Depolymerization of Native Lignin Enabled by Proton- Coupled Electron Transfer [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Here we report a catalytic, light-driven method for the redox-neutral depolymerization of native lignin biomass at ambient temperature. This transformation proceeds via a proton-coupled electron-transfer (PCET) activation of an alcohol O–H bond to ...

Lignin-assisted coal depolymerization [PDF]

open access: yes, 1991
Previous research has shown that addition of lignin-derived liquids to coal stirred in tetralin under mild reaction conditions (375{degree}C and 300--500 psig) results in a marked enhancement in the rate of coal depolymerization. A mathematical model was

Catalyst-free Depolymerization of Polycaprolactone to Silylated Monoesters and Iodide Derivatives Using Iodosilanes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
The homogeneous depolymerization of polycaprolactone (PCL) with excess iodotrimethylsilane (Me3SiI) proceeds without catalysts and selectively afforded I(CH2)5CO2SiMe3 or a mixture of I(CH2)5CO2SiMe3 and I(CH2)5CO2I depending on the solvent (CH2Cl2 ...

Mechanocatalytic partial depolymerization of lignocellulosic feedstock towards oligomeric glycans [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
The depolymerization of lignocellulosic feedstock with a heterogeneous composition is a major challenge and usually leads to the formation of monosaccharides as main products.

Salmonella lipopolysaccharide‐containing supported lipid bilayers as platforms to study bacteriophage interactions

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We present robust protocols for the preparation of supported lipid bilayers (SLBs) incorporating either Salmonella smooth LPS or outer membrane vesicles (OMVs). We use a combination of quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation (QCM‐D) and fluorescence microscopy to both characterize the SLBs of various compositions and to probe their interactions ...

Paclitaxel induces NM2‐dependent cellular contraction through GEF‐H1 dissociation from microtubules and RhoA/ROCK activation in cancer cells

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Taxanes are widely used chemotherapeutics whose effects on cellular mechanics remain poorly understood. We show that paclitaxel induces rapid cellular contraction by promoting GEF‐H1 dissociation from microtubules and non‐muscle myosin II activation through RhoA/ROCK.

Lignin Depolymerization to Dicarboxylic Acids with Sodium Percarbonate [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Lignin depolymerization to dicarboxylic acids (DCAs) by the one-step Fenton oxidation process results in poor yield and significant amounts of residual solids.

Physicochemical and biological properties of chitosan derivatives with varying molecular weight produced by chemical depolymerization

open access: yes, 2022
Chitosan derivatives with lower Mw were prepared by chemical depolymerization using hydrochloric acid. This modification improves functional and biological properties of shrimp chitosan and facilitates its utilizations.

From energy provision to protein synthesis: Tunnelling nanotubes as mediators of intercellular metabolic cooperation in cancer

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
The cytoskeleton‐mediated transport of mitochondria via tunnelling nanotubes restores respiration, increases ATP production, rescues cells from apoptosis, activates the AKT/mTOR signalling pathway, promotes cell migration and invasiveness, contributes to cancer progression and treatment resistance.

Effect of terahertz irradiation on DNA damage repair in living cells

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
We investigated the effect of terahertz (THz) wave irradiation on DNA double‐strand break (DSB) repair in living cells. We found that THz irradiation enhanced DSB repair at specific frequencies, whereas heat treatment inhibited it, indicating that this effect is nonthermal and frequency‐specific.
