De Novo Discovery of Nonstandard Thioisoindole‐Bridged Bicyclic Peptides Targeting Traf2‐ and NCK‐Interacting Kinase

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
An optimized strategy for the ribosomal synthesis of thioisoindole‐bridged bicyclic (TiB) peptides is incorporated into the RaPID platform, enabling high‐throughput discovery from topologically defined TiB libraries. Proof‐of‐concept selection against TNIK identifies nanomolar‐affinity ligands with inhibitory activity, while x‐ray crystallography ...

Association of DPP4 with esophageal stricture progression and the Hippo‐YAP pathway

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
This study establishes a comprehensive translational platform for esophageal stricture (ES) research by integrating a novel rat model with clinically relevant porcine validation. This study identifies DPP4 as a gene of interest associated with ES following endoscopic submucosal dissection, demonstrating that prophylactic DPP4 inhibition attenuates ...

Prophage Activation Triggers Extracellular Synthesis of DNA in Bacterial Biofilms via Rolling Circle Replication

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Shewanella oneidensis and Bacillus subtilis, both harboring prophages, reveal a novel biosynthetic route to scalable and programmable DNA superstructures in flower‐ and wire‐like shapes, respectively. Activation of prophages is achieved via 3‐hour starvation and monitored using reporter strains.

Mechanical Caging of Nucleic Acids Enabled by Light‐Activated Synthetic Molecular Motors

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
A synthetic light‐driven molecular motor imposes mechanical constraints on nucleic acids, enabling “mechanical caging” as a new mode to regulate DNA structure and function through mechanical input rather than chemical masking. ABSTRACT Control over nucleic acid activity is central to biotechnology and therapeutic development.

Luminescence Vapochromism of a Cu(I)/Na Phosphane Iodide Assembly Based on a Secondary‐Sphere Sodium Response

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
The luminescence of a heterometallic d‐s {Cu2I2Na2} phosphane‐phosphinate aggregate is regulated by an interplay of Na+–π/I– contacts and reversible coordination of oxygen‐containing organic molecules to Na ions. Structural variations caused by the incoming guest lead to a wide and selective variation of the emission color and illustrate a new approach

Mechanical Signatures of Nucleic Acid Trefoil Knot Topology

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Single‐stranded DNA can be designed with sequences that self‐thread into topological knots. The exact same sequence can alternatively be turned into an unknotted pseudoknot. The topology of the resulting polymer is determined by applying force with optical tweezers, causing the pseudoknot to resolve but the knot to tighten.

Broad‐Spectrum, Cell Envelope‐Active Marinocyclin Antibiotics From a Coral‐Derived Bacterium Are Effective Against Colistin‐Resistant Bacteria

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Marinocyclins, polycationic macrocyclic depsipeptides, were discovered by genome mining from the marine coral‐derived bacterium Aquimarina megaterium. The compounds have broad‐spectrum activity against gram‐positive and gram‐negative ESKAPE bacteria.
