Zinc(II) coordination complexes with tunable aryloxy‐imine ligands exhibit controllable supramolecular self‐assembly into hierarchical fibrous structures. Coordination‐driven stacking, not π–π interactions, enables gelation, dynamic assembly/disassembly, and enhanced nanomechanical properties.

Gastrointestinal endogenous proteins as a source of bioactive peptides : Doctor of Philosophy in Nutritional Sciences at Riddet Institute, Massey University, Palmerston North, New Zealand [PDF]
Gastrointestinal endogenous proteins (GEP) were investigated as a source of bioactive peptides. In silico and in vitro methods were used singly or in combination to study GEP-derived peptides after simulated digestion.

Highly Improved Electrospray Ionization-Mass Spectrometry Detection of G-Quadruplex-Folded Oligonucleotides and Their Complexes with Small Molecules [PDF]
G-quadruplexes are nucleic acids structures stabilized by physiological concentration of potassium ions. Because low stability G-quadruplexes are hardly detectable by mass spectrometry, we optimized solvent conditions: isopropanol in a triethylamine ...

A sequence‐encoded supramolecular construct containing two accessible toeholds is developed herein for enabling multiple editing operations. By introducing specific input strands, it is possible to selectively erase or rewrite digital content through parallel or series toehold‐mediated strand displacement (PTMSD or STMSD).

A Fragmentation Study on Four Oligostilbenes by Electrospray Tandem Mass Spectrometry
Oligostilbenes have attracted much interest due to their intricate structures and diverse bioactivities. In this study, two stilbene dimers, (−)-7,8-cis-ε-viniferin (1) and carasiphenol A (2), and two trimers, suffruticosol A (3) and suffruticosol C (4),

Structural Plasticity and Noncovalent Substrate Binding in the GroEL Apical Domain. A study using electrospray ionization mass spectrometry and fluorescence binding studies [PDF]
Advances in understanding how GroEL binds to non-native proteins are reported. Conformational flexibility in the GroEL apical domain, which could account for the variety of substrates that GroEL binds, is illustrated by comparison of several independent ...

A miniaturized, label‐free, and enzyme‐free biosensor (miR‐TFT) enables direct electrical detection of microRNA (miRNA) with single‐nucleotide specificity and a detection limit of 0.6 fM. Built on a tri‐channel In2O3/ZnO heterojunction and functionalized with bespoke peptide nucleic acid (PNA) probes, the device is robust, reusable, and compatible with

Exploring the Phytochemical Landscape of the Early-Diverging Flowering Plant Amborella trichopoda Baill. [PDF]
Although the evolutionary significance of the early-diverging flowering plant Amborella (Amborella trichopoda Baill.) is widely recognized, its metabolic landscape, particularly specialized metabolites, is currently underexplored.
