Speciation-dependent molecular mechanism of electron transfer from the c-type cytochrome MtrC to U(VI)-ligand complexes

Rizlan Bernier-Latmani, Luciano Andres Abriata, Karin Lederballe Meibom, Margaux Camille Andréa Molinas

Members of the Shewanella genus transfer electrons to metal and actinide electron acceptors such as hexavalent uranium, U(VI), via c-type cytochromes. The intracellular mechanism of electron transfer is well studied but the delivery of electrons to externa ...

Antibodies expand the scope of angiotensin receptor pharmacology

Shuhao Zhang, Patrick Daniel Barth

G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are key regulators of human physiology and are the targets of many small-molecule research compounds and therapeutic drugs. While most of these ligands bind to their target GPCR with high affinity, selectivity is often l ...

Tuning the reactivity of uranium towards small molecules in multimetallic complexes

Nadir Jori

One of the main goals of organometallic chemistry in the last decades was the activation of small molecule in mild reaction conditions. Even though multiple examples of catalytic cycles able to produce fine chemicals from cheap and abundant sources using t ...

Thiazole Boron Difluoride Dyes with Large Stokes Shift, Solid State Emission and Room-Temperature Phosphorescence

Jieping Zhu, Wei Wang, Shuo Tong

The small Stokes shift and weak emission in the solid state are two main shortcomings associated with the boron-dipyrromethene (BODIPY) family of dyes. This study presents the design, synthesis and luminescent properties of boron difluoro complexes of 2-ar ...

Multivalent Pattern Recognition through Control of Nano-Spacing in Low-Valency Super-Selective Materials

Maartje Martina Cornelia Bastings, Vincenzo Caroprese, Kaltrina Paloja, Artem Kononenko, Hale Bila

Super-selective multivalent ligand-receptor interactions display a signature step-like onset in binding when meeting a characteristic density of target receptors. Materials engineered for super-selective binding generally display a high number of flexible ...

Picometer Resolution Structure of the Coordination Sphere in the Metal-Binding Site in a Metalloprotein by NMR

David Lyndon Emsley, Andrea Bertarello

Most of our understanding of chemistry derives from atomic-level structures obtained with single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Metal centers in X-ray structures of small organometallic or coordination complexes are often extremely well-defined, with errors in ...

The atomic-resolution crystal structure of activated [Fe]-hydrogenase

Xile Hu, Matthew Wodrich

Hydrogenases are promising templates for constructing new H-2-based catalysts. [Fe]-hydrogenase, which features an ironguanylylpyridinol (FeGP) cofactor, catalyses a reversible hydride transfer from H-2 to methenyl-tetrahydromethanopterin (methenyl-H4MPT+, ...

Fe(II)-Catalyzed Ligand-Controlled Dissolution of Iron(hydr)oxides

Janet Gordon Hering

Dissolution of iron(III)phases is a key process in soils, surface waters, and the ocean. Previous studies found that traces of Fe(II) can greatly increase ligand controlled dissolution rates at acidic pH, but the extent that this also occurs at circumneutr ...

Sequential model identification of reaction systems-The missing path between the incremental and simultaneous approaches

Dominique Bonvin, Julien Léo Billeter, Sriniketh Srinivasan

Modeling chemical reaction systems is an important but complex task. The identified kinetic model must be able to explain all the underlying rate processes such as chemical reactions and heat and mass transfers. Traditionally, the modeling task is carried ...
