2, 5‐Diketopiperazine Derivatives From Coculture of Escherichia coli and Mogroside V
Escherichia coli (E. coli), a versatile bacterium, is also recognized for its ability to produce a range of secondary metabolites with significant biological activities. Especially in so‐called biotransformation processes, E. coli is frequently utilized to catalyze the conversion of substrate molecules into diverse compounds through biosynthesis and ...

Aspartame Dose‐Dependently Modulates Mitochondrial Function and Redox Balance in SH‐SY5Y Cells
Aspartame (AsP), one of the most widely consumed artificial sweeteners, remains under scrutiny for its potential effects on cellular health. While generally considered safe at dietary levels, growing evidence links AsP to oxidative stress and mitochondrial dysfunction, yet its mechanistic actions remain unclear.

Synthesis and analysis of stable isotope-labelled N-acyl homoserine lactones [PDF]
Aliphatic aldehydes were deuterated at the alpha-position via a base-catalyzed exchange reaction with D2O. These deuterated building blocks were used for the synthesis of labelled analogues of quorum sensing signal molecules belonging to the three major ...

Addressing Sustainability Challenges in Peptide Synthesis with Flow Chemistry and Machine Learning
A synthetic protocol for polypeptides 6–58 residue long, using recyclable greener solvent mixture (Anisole/DMSO) was developed and compared to traditional SPPS methods and to state‐of‐the‐art synthesizers. Abstract The high cost and the large amount of toxic waste generated during peptide production overshadow the current technology, requiring the ...

Synthesis of oxetane- and azetidine-containing spirocycles related to the 2,5-diketopiperazine framework [PDF]
A simple two-step sequence is used to efficiently make novel spirocyclic analogues of the diketopiperazine nucleus. Conjugate addition of chiral α-amino esters to nitroalkenes, generated from oxetan-3-one or N-Boc-azetidin-3-one, followed by nitro group ...
