Time-resolved structural studies with serial crystallography: A new light on retinal proteins

Structural Dynamics, 2015
Structural information of the different conformational states of the two prototypical light-sensitive membrane proteins, bacteriorhodopsin and rhodopsin, has been obtained in the past by X-ray cryo-crystallography and cryo-electron microscopy.

Dielectric‐Confinement‐Induced in‐Plane Photoelectric Anisotropy in Isotropic Quasi‐1D γ‐GaS Nanoribbon

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
We investigate the geometry‐governed optoelectronic anisotropy arising from dielectric confinement in quasi‐1D γ‐GaS nanoribbons with intrinsically isotropic atomic structures. Dielectric mismatch between the nanoribbon and its surroundings leads to a general polarization‐dependent photoresponse during near‐field scattering.

New Water Oxidation Mechanism in Photosystem II Resolves Major Experimental Controversies

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
In Photosystem II Oxygen Evolving Complex, we discovered the O3‐O6 peroxide at lower energy. Assignment of the O3 ligated by histidine (His337) as a slow exchanging substrate and its coupling with O6 give the O─O bond formation mechanism most consistent with all currently available experimental data. Proposal shows how protein environment can steer the

Atroposelective Access to π‐Conjugated 1,2‐Azaborepines Enabled by Palladium‐Catalyzed Cyclization of N‐Heterobiaryls with Alkynylboronates

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
We report a palladium‐catalyzed atroposelective cyclization of N‐heterobiaryl triflates with alkynyl boronates to access seven‐membered 1,2‐BN‐bridged biaryls with high yields and excellent enantioselectivity via a cascade DyKAT, cis‐carbopalladation, and 1,2‐migration, which expands the toolbox for axially chiral π‐conjugated boron compounds and opens

Kinetic Analysis of Transmetalation at Prototypical Nickel(II) Catalyst Species: Rates, Mechanisms, and Implications for Catalysis

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
A 31P{1H} NMR method enabling direct measurement of transmetalation at Ni(II) is disclosed, providing an extensive kinetic dataset. Rates span five orders of magnitude and exhibit strong ligand dependence, with monodentate ligands promoting transmetalation.

Ferryl intermediates of catalase captured by time-resolved Weissenberg crystallography and UV-VIS spectroscopy

, 1996
International audienceVarious enzymes use semi-stable ferryl intermediates and free radicals during their catalytic cycle, amongst them haem catalases. Structures for two transient intermediates (compounds I and II) of the NADPH-dependent catalase from ...

Protein Structuromics Reveals a Loop‐Controlled Half‐Open Active Pocket Conformation Throughout Fe(II)/α‐ketoglutarate‐Dependent Dioxygenase Catalytic Cycle

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study reveals a conserved half‐open active pocket in Fe(II)/α‐ketoglutarate‐dependent dioxygenases through protein structuromics, distinguished by structural features comprising highly flexible loop elements. Enhanced sampling simulations‐guided mutagenesis experiments elucidated how this flexible loop regulates pocket open/closed conformations ...

Enzyme‐Like Synthetic Cleft for Light‐Driven Water‐Oxidation Catalysis Via an Oxide Relay Pathway

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
A carboxylic acid group introduced into the second coordination sphere of a Ru(bda) water oxidation catalyst forms a defined hydrogen bond within the catalytic cleft. This interaction locks the group in place and enables an intramolecular oxide relay pathway between Ru(V)═O and the carboxylate group, providing a distinct and efficient route for O─O ...

Catalytic Functionalization of Unactivated π‐Bonds Enabled by Bidentate Directing Auxiliaries

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
This review explores how bidentate directing auxiliaries have advanced transition‐metal catalysis for unactivated alkene/alkyne functionalization. By leveraging chelated intermediates, bidentate directing auxiliaries enable precise hydrofunctionalization, difunctionalization, and C─H activation of π‐bonds with unique selectivity and reactivity.
