PLoS ONE, 2014 Next generation sequencing technologies led to the discovery of numerous new microbe species in diverse environmental samples. Some of the new species contain genes never encountered before. Some of these genes encode proteins with novel functions, and some of these genes encode proteins that perform some well-known function in a novel way.

Optics for Nano-Satellite X-Ray Monitor
Open Astronomy, 2015 The Schmidt lobster eye design for a grazing incidence X-ray optics provides a field of view of the order of many degrees, for this reason it can be a convenient approach for the construction of space X-ray monitors.

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.A regio‐ and diastereoselective method for strain‐release pentafluorosulfanylation of carbonyl‐containing 1,3‐disubstituted [1.1.0]bicyclobutanes (BCBs) was developed that led to several fortuitous discoveries. For instance, the resultant SF5‐cyclobutanes (SF5‐CBs) exhibit close SF5⋯C═X contacts (X = C, N, O) and provide synthetic access to a new class

N‐Alkoxysulfurdiimide Reagents for the One‐Step Modular Synthesis of Primary Sulfonimidamides
Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.N‐Alkoxysulfurdiimide reagents when combined with organometallic reagents lead directly to primary sulfonimidamide products. The reactions are broad in scope, encompassing aryl, heteroaryl, and alkyl carbon substituents. The reactivity of the N‐alkoxysulfurdiimide reagents can be correlated with the electron‐withdrawing ability of the N‐substituent ...

Versatile Pneumatic Twisted Coiled Actuators Enabled by Fiber‐Polymer Composite Fabrication
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.This work reports composite Pneumatic Twisted Coiled Actuators with embedded Kevlar fibers that convert pneumatic or hydraulic pressure into powerful linear motion. A novel precise manufacturing technique is used to systematically explore how design variables influence actuator mechanics and dynamics.

Sustainable Pd‐Catalyzed Aminations “on Dirty Water”
Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.Aminations, done safely yet neat, and therefore, quickly, using low levels of Pd, in “dirty water” that must contain 30% KOH; not NaOH, and not at 5%,10%, 20%, 40%, or 50% KOH. Moreover, no base sensitivity of functional groups! Very cool. Thank you, Nature.
