Liposomal-polyene preliposomal powder and method for its preparation [PDF]
A method is disclosed for preparing a stable preliposomal powder which, when reconstituted with water or saline solution, forms a suspension of liposomes containing a polyene drug, such as nystatin. The method involves the steps of combining at least one

Charge Transport through Polyene Self-Assembled Monolayers from Multiscale Computer Simulations [PDF]
We combine first-principles density-functional theory with matrix Green’s function calculations to predict the structures and charge transport characteristics of self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) of four classes of systems in contact with Au(111 ...

An Improved and Practical Method for Synthesizing of α-Sanshools and Spilanthol
An efficient and practical route for the synthesis of α-sanshools and spilanthol is described herein. Several modifications of an existing method enabled the preparation of the (2E,6Z,8E,10E)-tetraene precursor of hydroxy-α-sanshool in good yield.

The Effect of varying Ground-state Aromaticity on the First Molecular Electronic Hyperpolarizabilites of Organic Donor-Acceptor Molecules [PDF]
A series of compounds of the form 4-dimethylaminophenyl–polyene–acceptor, where the polyene ranges from nothing to all-trans-1,3,5-hexatriene and the acceptor is 2-nitrovinyl, formyl, or 2,2-dicyanovinyl has been prepared and their β values measured by ...

A new family of StART domain proteins at membrane contact sites has a role in ER-PM sterol transport
Sterol traffic between the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and plasma membrane (PM) is a fundamental cellular process that occurs by a poorly understood non-vesicular mechanism. We identified a novel, evolutionarily diverse family of ER membrane proteins with

Photoinduced Dynamics of 13,13′-Diphenylpropyl-β-carotene
Carotenoids are ubiquitous pigment systems in nature which are relevant to a range of processes, such as photosynthesis, but the detailed influence of substitutions at the polyene backbone on their photophysics is still underexplored.
