Unexpected Methyllanthionine Stereochemistry in the Morphogenetic Lanthipeptide SapT
Lanthipeptides are polycyclic peptides characterized by the presence of lanthionine (Lan) and/or methyllanthionine (MeLan). They are members of the ribosomally synthesized and post-translationally modified peptides (RiPPs).

Stereochemistry-Controlled Mechanical Properties and Degradation in 3D-Printable Photosets.
Stereochemistry provides an appealing handle by which to control the properties of small molecules and polymers. While it is established that stereochemistry in linear polymers affects their bulk mechanical properties, the application of this concept to ...

Stereochemistry of N-Acyl-5H-dibenzo[b,d]azepin-7(6H)-ones
The stereochemical properties of N-acyl-5H-dibenzo[b,d]azepin-7(6H)-ones (2a–c), which inhibit potassium channels in T cells, were examined by freezing their conformational change due to 4-methyl substitution.

Synthesis of New C-3 Substituted Kynurenic Acid Derivatives
The application of kynurenic acid (KYNA) as an electron-rich aromatic system in the modified Mannich reaction has been examined. The extension possibility of the reaction was tested by using amines occurring in a number of bioactive products, such as ...

Fast and Accurate Prediction of Refractive Index of Organic Liquids with Graph Machines
The refractive index (RI) of liquids is a key physical property of molecular compounds and materials. In addition to its ubiquitous role in physics, it is also exploited to impart specific optical properties (transparency, opacity, and gloss) to ...

A global Ramachandran score identifies protein structures with unlikely stereochemistry
Ramachandran plots report the distribution of the (φ, Ψ) torsion angles of the protein backbone and are one of the best quality metrics of experimental structure models. Typically, validation software reports the number of residues belonging to “outlier”,

Synthesis and Conformational Analysis of Naphthoxazine-Fused Phenanthrene Derivatives
The synthesis of new phenanthr[9,10-e][1,3]oxazines was achieved by the direct coupling of 9-phenanthrol with cyclic imines in the modified aza-Friedel–Crafts reaction followed by the ring closure of the resulting bifunctional aminophenanthrols with ...
