Sequence determinants of RNA G‐quadruplex unfolding by Arg‐rich regions
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.We show that Arg‐rich peptides selectively unfold RNA G‐quadruplexes, but not RNA stem‐loops or DNA/RNA duplexes. This length‐dependent activity is inhibited by acidic residues and is conserved among SR and SR‐related proteins (SRSF1, SRSF3, SRSF9, U1‐70K, and U2AF1).

ZnO/ionic liquid catalyzed biodiesel production from renewable and waste lipids as feedstocks [PDF]
, 2019 A new protocol for biodiesel production is proposed, based on a binary ZnO/TBAI (TBAI = tetrabutylammonium iodide) catalytic system. Zinc oxide acts as a heterogeneous, bifunctional Lewis acid/base catalyst, while TBAI plays the role of phase transfer ...

Bioeconomy in Textile Industry: Industrial Residues Valorization Toward Textile Functionalization
RecyclingIndustrial residues are sources of functional biopolymers with interesting properties for textile applications. This study aims to evaluate the impact of enzymatic pre-treatment on oil yield and phenolic compounds’ content in an aqueous extraction process, as well as the functional properties incorporated into textiles.
