Zwitterionic Ring Opening Polymerization with Isothioureas [PDF]
Bicyclic isothioureas 1 and 2 mediate controlled ring opening polymerizations (ROP) of lactides in the absence of protic initiators to afford high molecular weight polylactides (PLA) with narrow polydispersities. The cyclic structure of the resulting PLA was determined by dilute solution viscosity measurement and MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry.

Structural insights and therapeutic targets in Acinetobacter baumannii capsule biosynthesis
Hypervirulent KL49 A. baumannii's capsular polysaccharide contains the nonulosonic acid 8‐epi‐Leg5,7Ac2, synthesized by epimerization via ElaA, ElaB, and ElaC. Crystal structures of ElaA, ElaB, and ElaC reveal their role in CMP‐Leg5,7Ac2 synthesis and regioselective C8 epimerization.

Aptamers are used both therapeutically and as targeting agents in cancer treatment. We developed an aptamer‐targeted PLGA–TRAIL nanosystem that exhibited superior therapeutic efficacy in NOD/SCID breast cancer models. This nanosystem represents a novel biotechnological drug candidate for suppressing resistance development in breast cancer.

Synthesis of poly(conjugated ester)s by ring-opening polymerization of cyclic hemiacetal ester bearing acryl skeleton [PDF]
Available online 20 August 2019Ring-opening polymerization (ROP) of 2,6-dimethyl-5-methylene-1,3-dioxan-4-one (DMDO), a cyclic hemiacetal ester containing an acrylate skeleton, was investigated. Although the ROPs catalyzed by tin(II) 2-ethylhexanoate [Sn(

COMP–PMEPA1 axis promotes epithelial‐to‐mesenchymal transition in breast cancer cells
This study reveals that cartilage oligomeric matrix protein (COMP) promotes epithelial‐to‐mesenchymal transition (EMT) in breast cancer. We identify PMEPA1 (protein TMEPAI) as a novel COMP‐binding partner that mediates EMT via binding to the TSP domains of COMP, establishing the COMP–PMEPA1 axis as a key EMT driver in breast cancer.

Catalytic living ring-opening metathesis polymerization [PDF]
In living ring-opening metathesis polymerization (ROMP), a transition-metal-carbene complex polymerizes ring-strained olefins with very good control of the molecular weight of the resulting polymers. Because one molecule of the initiator is required for each polymer chain, however, this type of polymerization is expensive for widespread use.
