Development of a light-up fluorescent probe for HRAS G-quadruplex DNA

The development of small-molecule G-quadruplex DNA probes has attracted significant attention in recent years. However, G-quadruplexes can display a wide variety of topologies, which process different structures and functions. Therefore, selective discrimination one G-quadruplex structure over another is promising. Herein, we reported the design, synthesis and biological evaluation of a long-chain fatty amine functionalized triphenylamine-quinolinium conjugate 1b. Significant enhancement of the fluorescence intensity (over 180 fold) was observed when 1b bound with HRAS G-quadruplex DNA, while much weaker enhancements were presented in the presence of other G-quadruplexes (45–90-fold) and single/double-stranded DNAs (less than 20-fold), indicating 1b had an excellent selectivity to HRAS. The details of the interactions were investigated by UV–Vis, FID and CD analysis. The results show 1b could interact and stabilize HRAS structure mainly by π-π stacking binding mode. The introduced amine chain of the structure core was found to be better in the terms of inducing selectivity toward G-quadruplex structure. In addition, the application of 1b as a fluorescent agent for living cell imaging was also demonstrated.

基于甲醛、苯和二氧化硫在纳米Ti3CeY2O11上的催化发光有交叉敏感现象,在3个波长处分别确定甲醛、苯和二氧化硫浓度与催化发光信号强度的响应关系,再依据发光信号强度的叠加性特征即可获取甲醛、苯和二氧化硫的准确浓度,据此建立了同时测定空气中甲醛、苯和二氧化硫的新方法.3个分析波长分别为420、535和680 nm,敏感材料表面温度为280℃,载气流速为130 mL/min.本方法对甲醛、苯和二氧化硫的检出限(3σ)分别为0.04、0.05和0.10 mg/m3,线性范围分别为0.08~75.60 mg/m3、0.10~101.40 mg/m3和0.30~115.00 mg/m3, 回收率分别为96.4%~103.7%、97.8%~102.5%和97.2%~103.3%.常见共存物,如乙醛、甲苯、硫化氢、氨、甲醇、乙醇和二氧化碳等不干扰测定.连续200 h通浓度均为50 mg/m3的甲醛、苯和二氧化硫混合气体,发光强度的相对偏差≤2%,表明此纳米级复合氧化物对甲醛、苯和二氧化硫的敏感性的寿命长.本方法充分利用了交叉敏感现象,可以实现空气中甲醛、苯和二氧化硫的在线分析.     

Development of nitrilase-mediated process for phenylacetic acid production from phenylacetonitrile

This study aimed at developing an efficient biotransformation process for phenylacetic acid production from phenylacetonitrile by using recombinant Escherichia coli M15 harboring a double mutant MG nitrilase (I113M/Y199G) from Burkholderia cenocepacia J2315. A yield of 2310 U/mL nitrilase was obtained by fermentation after the optimization of cultivation conditions, with a specific activity of 64 U/mg dcw. The MG nitrilase showed high substrate tolerance and completely hydrolyzed 100 mM phenylacetonitrile in 30 min under optimal conditions. To alleviate substrate inhibition, periodic or continuous batch-feeding of substrate was used during the biotransformation. Up to 164 g/L substrate was completely hydrolyzed in 9 h with continuous batch-feeding using resting cells, corresponding to 400 U/mL of nitrilase activity, and leading to production of 163.4 g/L phenylacetic acid. The hydrolysis process has potential application for phenylacetic acid production on a large scale.

Dynamique multi-contact d'un système de solides tridimensionnels rigidesMulti-contact dynamics of a set of three-dimensional rigid bodies

This study is in keeping with the general pattern of dynamical simulations of a set of rigid three-dimensional bodies submitted to unilateral contact constraints with dry friction. An exact formulation (respecting the contact and friction laws) of the problem of predicting the system accelerations and the contact status, in further evolution is proposed. A numerical treatment of this kind of nonlinear problem is presented. This approach is applied to a simple multi-contact example, and yields results in agreement with those of analytical and numerical type, known for this example. To cite this article: C.

An efficient method for solving the mixed direct-inverse problem of the transonic rotational flow in plane casades

The method in [1] has been extended to the case of rotational flow in this paper. A new method for dealing with the shock wave is presented. This method has the advantages of both the shock-fitting and the shock capturing methods. The direct problem and the mixed direct-inverse problem of the rotational flow in a transonic plane cascade at both design and off design conditions are solved, and the results show that the present method has rapid convergence rate and high accuracy even for the flow with moderately strong shocks. The calculations have been carried out on the DPS-8 computer, and for the direct problem, only 50–80 iterations are needed, and 50–80 seconds of CPU time are required.
