Ascidian Ciona larvae initially show strong clockwise tail twisting, which is largely corrected during development. However, a small residual twist remains. This study shows that organized helical myofibrils in tail muscles mechanically stabilize this residual asymmetry, preventing complete restoration of bilateral symmetry and revealing how embryos ...

Highly substituted fluorenones are readily prepared in mostly fair to good yields via metal- and additive-free TBHP-promoted cross-dehydrogenative coupling (CDC) of readily accessible N-methyl-2-(aminomethyl)biphenyls and 2-(aminomethyl)biphenyls.

Biophysical approaches for studying viral entry
Viruses infect all living organisms and have been responsible for major epidemics and pandemics. Their ongoing evolutionary battle with host defenses creates a constant need for improved tools to study viral behavior. Advancing methods to probe viral attachment, fusion, and genome release deepen our understanding of how infections begin and support the

Septin 9 polybasic domains couple phosphoinositide‐rich membrane binding to centrosome positioning, Golgi organization, and microtubule acetylation to control epithelial polarity. Their loss disrupts this axis, causing centrosome mispositioning, Golgi fragmentation, reduced microtubule acetylation, and polarity inversion via upregulation of the ...

This study reveals that the small GTPase Rab14 is necessary for human papillomavirus (HPV) infection and plays an essential role in the transport of virions to the trans‐Golgi network (TGN). HPV in the early endosome (EE), which harbors GTP‐bound Rab14, is transported to the TGN through the switch of Rab14 from its GTP‐bound to GDP‐bound form.

Total Synthesis of (±)-Leonuketal [PDF]
Cleavage of a C–C bond is a diversifying process in the biogenesis of seco-terpenoids that has produced fascinating molecular structures. Leonuketal is an 8,9-seco-labdane terpenoid with a unique tetracyclic structure, owing to a C–C bond cleavage event ...

The total synthesis of (±)-coriolin
Abstract The first total synthesis of (±)-coriolin from the tricyclo 6-4-5-fused ring photo-adduct through the key tricyclo 5-5-5-fused ring intermediate, 7,8,11 - trihydroxy - 1,4,4 - trimethyltricyclo[6.3.0.02,6]undecan - 3 - one, is described.
