Glycosyl Oxocarbenium Ions: Structure, Conformation, Reactivity, and Interactions
(American Chemical Society, 2021-06-01)
Conspectus
We also highlight that, from a chemical perspective, the glycosylation reaction can be described as a continuum, from unimolecular SN1 with naked oxocarbenium cations as intermediates to bimolecular SN2-type ...
Kinetic Studies of Acetyl Group Migration between the Saccharide Units in an Oligomannoside Trisaccharide Model Compound and a Native Galactoglucomannan Polysaccharide
(Wiley, 2021-10-13)
Acyl group migration is a fundamental phenomenon in carbohydrate chemistry, recently shown to take place also between two non-adjacent hydroxyl groups, across the glycosidic bond, in a beta-(1 -> 4)-linked mannan trisaccharide ...
Selective C-13-Labels on Repeating Glycan Oligomers to Reveal Protein Binding Epitopes through NMR: Polylactosamine Binding to Galectins
(Wiley, 2021-08-16)
A combined chemo-enzymatic synthesis/NMR-based methodology is presented to identify, in unambiguous manner, the distinctive binding epitope within repeating sugar oligomers when binding to protein receptors. The concept ...
Study of the Phase Transitions in the Binary System NPG-TRIS for Thermal Energy Storage Applications
(MDPI, 2020-03-05)
Neopentylglycol (NPG) and tris(hydroxymethyl)aminomethane (TRIS) are promising phase change materials (PCMs) for thermal energy storage (TES) applications. These molecules undergo reversible solid-solid phase transitions ...
Structure of a protective epitope reveals the importance of acetylation of Neisseria meningitidis serogroup A capsular polysaccharide
(National Academy of Sciences, 2020-11-24)
Meningococcal meningitis remains a substantial cause of mortality and morbidity worldwide. Until recently, countries in the African meningitis belt were susceptible to devastating outbreaks, largely attributed to serogroup ...
Reprogrammable Permanent Shape Memory Materials Based on Reversibly Crosslinked Epoxy/PCL Blends
(MDPI, 2020-03-29)
Epoxy/Polycaprolactone (PCL) blends cured with a conventional diamine (4,4′-diaminodiphenylmethane, DDM) and with different amounts of a disulfide containing diamine (4, 4´-dithioaniline, DSS) were prepared through melting. ...
Editorial Catalysts: Special Issue on Catalytic Pyrolysis
(MDPI, 2020-04-28)
Layer groups: Brillouin-zone and crystallographic databases on the Bilbao Crystallographic Server
(International Union of Crystallography, 2021-11)
[EN]The section of the Bilbao Crystallographic Server (https://www.cryst.ehu.es/) dedicated to subperiodic groups contains crystallographic and Brillouin-zone databases for the layer groups. The crystallographic databases ...
Multi-model Meteorological and Aeolian Predictions for Mars 2020 and the Jezero Crater Region
(2021)
Nine simulations are used to predict the meteorology and aeolian activity of the Mars 2020 landing site region. Predicted seasonal variations of pressure and surface and atmospheric temperature generally agree. Minimum and ...
Dicopper(II)-EDTA Chelate as a Bicephalic Receptor Model for a Synthetic Adenine Nucleoside
(MDPI, 2021-05-02)
In the extensive field of metal ions, their interactions with nucleic acids, and their constituents, the main aim of this work is to develop a metal chelate suitable to recognize two molecules of an adenine nucleoside. For ...
