The novel styrylquinazolinone‐based molecule W1B effectively suppresses glioblastoma by inhibiting IGF1R and EGFR. In high‐glucose microenvironments driving tumor resistance, W1B acts synergistically with the EGFR inhibitor dacomitinib. This combination safely blocks compensatory survival signaling in zebrafish xenograft models. Showcasing promising in

Subangstrom Crystallography Reveals that Short Ionic Hydrogen Bonds, and Not a His-Asp Low-Barrier Hydrogen Bond, Stabilize the Transition State in Serine Protease Catalysis [PDF]
To address questions regarding the mechanism of serine protease catalysis, we have solved two X-ray crystal structures of α-lytic protease (αLP) that mimic aspects of the transition states: αLP at pH 5 (0.82 Å resolution) and αLP bound to the peptidyl ...

Pseudo-Jahn-Teller origin of the low barrier hydrogen bond in N2H7+ [PDF]
The microscopic origin and quantum effects of the low barrier hydrogen bond (LBHB) in the proton-bound ammonia dimer cation N2H7+ were studied by means of ab initio and density-functional theory (DFT) methods. These results were analyzed in the framework of vibronic theory and compared to those obtained for the Zundel cation H5O2+.

New features on yttria‐stabilized zirconia after exposure at 1500°C: Newly discovered pyramidal structures on an old material. After exposure at 1550°C on the cross section of YSZ new features, namely pyramidal structures are discovered. These structures grow with time, increase in numbers, appear as singularities, are often arranged in strings, and ...

Interrogating Low Barrier Hydrogen Bonds with Neutrons, X-rays, and Computation [PDF]
Low barrier hydrogen bonds (LBHBs) are H-bonds where the barrier to proton transfer from the donor to the acceptor atom is comparable to the quantum mechanical zero-point energy of the interaction, resulting in proton delocalization.

Karl Popper and the Mechanisms of Hydrogen Embrittlement
Representation of the beginning of loss of ductility rather than embrittlement. Small concentrations of hydrogen in a diffusible form within iron are well‐established to harm the mechanical integrity of steels. There are theories that attempt to explain the pernicious role of hydrogen.

How ammonia participates in hydrogen bonding [PDF]
High resolution spectral data on molecular complexes observed in free jet expansions and in particular rotationally resolved spectra, provide a wealth of information on the structure and the detailed nature of non-covalent interactions.

Energy considerations show that low-barrier hydrogen bonds do not offer a catalytic advantage over ordinary hydrogen bonds [PDF]
Low-barrier hydrogen bonds have recently been proposed as a major factor in enzyme catalysis. Here we evaluate the feasibility of transition state (TS) stabilization by low-barrier hydrogen bonds in enzymes. Our analysis focuses on the facts that ( i ) a low-barrier hydrogen bond is less stable than a regular ...
