Covalent binding of uracil DNA glycosylase UdgX to abasic DNA upon uracil excision
Uracil DNA glycosylases (UDGs) are important DNA repair enzymes that excise uracil from DNA, yielding an abasic site. Recently, UdgX, an unconventional UDG with extremely tight binding to DNA containing uracil, was discovered.

A Stable Isopterin Mimic of a Potent Bacterial Stimulant of T Cells
A microbial metabolite covalently binds immunological protein MR1 to potently activate specific lymphocytes called MAIT cells, but it is too unstable for biological applications. Here, using synthesis, assays, protein crystallography, and computer modelling, we report a water‐stable analogue that activates reporter cells expressing the MAIT T cell ...

Multivalent RNA‐Cleaving Agents on a Cubic Octameric Silsesquioxane Core
RNA‐cleaving agents on a cubic octameric silsesquioxane core were synthesized and characterized. Several catalytic systems of these structures were screened using hexaribonucleotide models. The best systems were then further used to study their catalytic efficiency in cleaving a HER2 mRNA model sequence. The induced cleavage sites were also determined.

Synthetic Strategies for the Construction of Cyclobutane‐Fused Heterocycles
Cyclobutane‐fused heterocycles are important motifs commonly present in bioactive compounds, recognized for their rigid 3D structures that confer unique properties. However, synthesizing these compounds remains challenging. This review discusses current methods for their synthesis, such as photochemical, metal‐catalyzed, and Lewis acid‐mediated [2 + 2]

What's New? This study introduces a novel approach for detecting locally advanced esophageal carcinoma using cell‐free DNA (cfDNA) analysis through a highly sensitive fragmentome assay. Unlike traditional sequencing‐based methods that are limited by the absence of specific mutations in esophageal tumors, our method offers an alternative by quantifying ...

ABSTRACT Adjuvant chemotherapy can improve outcomes for patients who have undergone lung cancer resection, and perioperative rehabilitation may help maintain the physical condition necessary to receive adjuvant chemotherapy. This observational cohort study investigated the impact of perioperative rehabilitation on the administration of postoperative ...

Solution photochemistry of thymine and uracil
With dienes as specific triplet quenchers, it has been shown that the photodimerization of thymine in acetonitrile proceeds entirely through the triplet state and the photodimerization of uracil in acetonitrile or in water proceeds in part through the ...
