Ben-Abu, Yuval published the artcileMetabolome dynamics during wheat domestication, COA of Formula: C5H11NO2S, the publication is Scientific Reports (2022), 12(1), 8532, database is CAplus and MEDLINE.

One of the most important crops worldwide is wheat. Wheat domestication took place about 10,000 years ago. Not only that its wild progenitors have been discovered and phenotypically characterized, but their genomes were also sequenced and compared to modern wheat. While comparative genomics is essential to track genes that contribute to improvement in crop yield, comparative analyses of functional biol. end-products, such as metabolites, are still lacking. With the advent of rigorous mass-spectrometry technologies, it is now possible to address that problem on a big-data scale. In attempt to reveal classes of metabolites, which are associated with wheat domestication, we analyzed the metabolomes of wheat kernel samples from various wheat lines. These wheat lines represented subspecies of tetraploid wheat along primary and secondary domestications, including wild emmer, domesticated emmer, landraces durum, and modern durum. We detected that the groups of plant metabolites such as plant-defense metabolites, antioxidants and plant hormones underwent significant changes during wheat domestication. Our data suggest that these metabolites may have contributed to the improvement in the agricultural fitness of wheat. Closer evaluation of specific metabolic pathways may result in the future in genetically-engineered high-yield crops.

Nakamura, Shuichi published the artcileEnantioselective Reaction of ¦Á-Lithiated Dithioacetals Using Chiral Bis(oxazoline)s: New Chiral Formyl Anion Equivalents, Recommanded Product: 2,4,6-Triisopropylbenzenethiol, the publication is Journal of Organic Chemistry (2004), 69(5), 1581-1589, database is CAplus and MEDLINE.

The enantioselective reaction of various ¦Á-lithiated dithioacetals with aldehydes or a ketone in the presence of bis(oxazoline)s was examined Among them, unsym. dithioacetals were found to be the best choice for attaining high enantioselectivity. The reaction of lithiated tert-butylthio(2-pyridylthio)methane with aldehydes proceeded with good diastereoselectivity as well as with good enantioselectivity. The enantioselective reaction was shown to proceed through dynamic thermodn. resolution Mercury(II) chloride effected hydrolysis of the dithioacetal moiety of the products to 2-hydroxyaldehydes, which were directly reduced to give the optically active 1,2-diols.

Fukumoto, Kazuki published the artcileExcess S-adenosylmethionine inhibits methylation via catabolism to adenine, Computed Properties of 63-68-3, the publication is Communications Biology (2022), 5(1), 313, database is CAplus and MEDLINE.

The global dietary supplement market is valued at over USD 100 billion. One popular dietary supplement, S-adenosylmethionine, is marketed to improve joints, liver health and emotional well-being in the US since 1999, and has been a prescription drug in Europe to treat depression and arthritis since 1975, but recent studies questioned its efficacy. In our body, S-adenosylmethionine is critical for the methylation of nucleic acids, proteins and many other targets. The marketing of SAM implies that more S-adenosylmethionine is better since it would stimulate methylations and improve health. Previously, we have shown that methylation reactions regulate biol. rhythms in many organisms. Here, using biol. rhythms to assess the effects of exogenous S-adenosylmethionine, we reveal that excess S-adenosylmethionine disrupts rhythms and, rather than promoting methylation, is catabolized to adenine and methylthioadenosine, toxic methylation inhibitors. These findings further our understanding of Me metabolism and question the safety of S-adenosylmethionine as a supplement.

Minamide, Hiroaki published the artcileFrequency-agile terahertz-wave sources and applications to sensitive diagnosis of semiconductor wafers, Related Products of catalysis-chemistry, the publication is Proceedings of SPIE (2011), 80230I/1-80230I/6, database is CAplus.

We have developed ultra-widely tunable THz-wave source using organic nonlinear optical crystals such as 4- dimethylamino-N-methyl-4-stilbazolium tosylate (DAST) and N-benzyl-2-methyl-4-nitroaniline (BNA). The THz-wave difference frequency generation using these crystals covers the ultra-widely tunable range of 0.1-40 THz with frequency agility. Collaborating with Furukawa Co. Ltd., we used the progressive, frequency-agile THz-wave source for industrial applications and produced a sensitive, non-destructive method for examining carrier-d. and elec. properties of semiconductors. This method presents novel possibilities for use in the semiconductor industry.

Flegler, Alexander published the artcileExogenous fatty acids affect membrane properties and cold adaptation of Listeria monocytogenes, Product Details of C22H32O2, the publication is Scientific Reports (2022), 12(1), 1499, database is CAplus and MEDLINE.

Listeria monocytogenes is a food-borne pathogen that can grow at very low temperatures close to the f.p. of food and other matrixes. Maintaining cytoplasmic membrane fluidity by changing its lipid composition is indispensable for growth at low temperatures Its dominant adaptation is to shorten the fatty acid chain length and, in some strains, increase in addition the menaquinone content. To date, incorporation of exogenous fatty acid was not reported for Listeria monocytogenes. In this study, the membrane fluidity grown under low-temperature conditions was affected by exogenous fatty acids incorporated into the membrane phospholipids of the bacterium. Listeria monocytogenes incorporated exogenous fatty acids due to their availability irresp. of their m.ps. Incorporation was demonstrated by supplementation of the growth medium with polysorbate 60, polysorbate 80, and food lipid extracts, resulting in a corresponding modification of the membrane fatty acid profile. Incorporated exogenous fatty acids had a clear impact on the fitness of the Listeria monocytogenes strains, which was demonstrated by analyses of the membrane fluidity, resistance to freeze-thaw stress, and growth rates. The fatty acid content of the growth medium or the food matrix affects the membrane fluidity and thus proliferation and persistence of Listeria monocytogenes in food under low-temperature conditions.

Ni or Pd-catalyzed decarbonylative reductive couplings of aromatic esters were developed. A range of (hetero)aromatic esters was applicable to these reductive homocoupling reactions. Moreover, it was found that Pd-catalysis enables a reductive decarbonylative cross-coupling between two different aromatic esters to afford a nonsym. biaryls system.

Kaya, Dogan published the artcileMagnetically separable low Pt substituted Co nanoparticles: Investigation of structural, magnetic, and catalytic properties, Computed Properties of 13822-56-5, the publication is Physica B: Condensed Matter (Amsterdam, Netherlands) (2022), 413765, database is CAplus.

Developing multifunctional nanoparticles (NPs) for magnetic and catalytic purposes is crucial for controlling magnetic properties and reducing production costs. We synthesized Co and low Pt loaded CoPt NPs by the modified polyol process. Co and CoPt NPs exhibited coexist fcc and hcp phases which are confirmed with x-ray diffraction and Rietveld refinement anal. SEM images revealed the average size of the NPs smaller than 9 nm with a narrow distribution. An irreversible magnetization-temperature behavior of the particles is observed in the modes of zero-field cooled and field cooled with a strong ferromagnetic signal close to 350 K. The field-dependent magnetization up to ¡À5 T was investigated to determine coercive field (H_c), exchange bias (H_E), saturation magnetization (M_s), remanent magnetization (M_r), and the ratio of remanent magnetization to saturation magnetization (M_r/M_s). There is a general decrease in magnetic values due to an increase of both the temperature and the Pt ratio in Co nanoparticles. When the Pt/Co ratio drops to 1%, the sample was measured with the highest H_c value of 648.5 Oe and M_s value of 100 emu/g at 5 K. On the contrary, increasing the concentration of Pt to 10% resulted in a reduction for the M_s value below 40 emu/g. Besides, cyclic voltammetry measurements showed apparent hydrogen reduction in the potential range of -0.91 V and -0.96 V (vs Ag/AgCl) and 10% Pt loaded CoPt NPs exhibits the highest activity after 10th cycles and increase the activity up to 15.80 mA cm^-2 at -1.2 V due to the surfactant.
