贫电子环丙烷衍生物与胂叶立德的反应研究

The reaction of electron-deficient cyclopropane derivatives, cis-1-methoxycarbonyl-2-aryl-6,6-dimethyl-5,7dioxospiro[2,5]octa-4,8-diones with benzoylmethylenetriphenylarsorane (2) and methoxycarbonylmethylenetriphenylarsorane (4) was found to form cis,trans-l-methoxycarbonyl-2-aryl-3-benzoyl-7,7-dimethyl-6,8-dioxospiro[3,5]nona-5,9-dione (3a-3e) and trans,cis,trans-5-[2‘-methoxycarbonyl-2‘-(triphenylarsoranylidene)acetyl]-6oxo-3-aryl-tetrahydro-pyran-2,4-dicarboxylic acid dimethyl esters (5a-5c) respectively with high stereoselectivity. The possible reaction mechanisms for the formation of the different products were also orooosed.     

A potent and highly selective sulfotransferase inhibitor

In the present work, we have used a newly developed, fluorescence-based assay to screen a library of >30 000 compounds as potential beta-arylsulfotransferase-IV inhibitors. A total of 11 inhibitors were discovered. Most of the compounds discovered showed low micromolar inhibition, but one of the compounds showed potent inhibition (Ki = 96 nM). The most potent of these inhibitors was tested against a variety of other purine binding enzymes and showed remarkable specificity.     

Synthesis of conducting polyaniline using novel anionic Gemini surfactant as micellar stabilizer

The Gemini surfactant 9B-4-9B containing sodium sulfonate as hydrophilic head group was synthesized based on nonylphenol and characterized by FTIR, ¹H NMR spectroscopy and the surface tension measurement. The CMC and C₂₀ of the 9B-4-9B were smaller than that of sodium dodecylbenzene sulfonate and sodium dodecylsulfate, respectively, indicating excellent efficiency of micelle formation and reduced surface tension. Conducting polyaniline salts were synthesized by chemical oxidative micellar polymerization of aniline in water firstly using Gemini surfactant 9B-4-9B as the micelle stabilizer and ammonium peroxydisulfate as the oxidant at 0 °C. The stable polyaniline dispersions have been obtained when the molar ratio of the 9B-4-9B to aniline was equal to or above 0.5 used in the polymerization system. The obtained granular polyaniline particles with the size of 1-2 μm were characterized by FTIR, UV-Vis, SEM, WAXD and conductivity measurement.     

Crystal orientation-ordered ZnS nanowire bundles

We report a novel approach for growing aligned and orientation-ordered ZnS nanowires. Our method relies on a buffer layer of CdSe grown on a Si(111) substrate, on which ZnS nanowires are grown. The growth process of the nanowire bundles is presented. The technique demonstrated could be an effective pathway for growing patterned, aligned, size-controlled, and orientation-ordered ZnS nanowires.     

声波团聚净化尿素造粒塔尾气实验研究*

尿素造粒塔大多采用水洗工艺处理尾气粉尘,存在较为严重的细颗粒粉尘溢出和水汽拖尾问题,因此深入探究声波团聚技术在造粒塔尾气处理方面的应用。通过实验研究了声波与喷雾对除尘效率的影响,发现声波单独作用时在3500 Hz达到最佳除尘效率,为74.49%,协同喷雾时2600 Hz即可实现相近的除尘效率,为73.83%。进一步探究其中机理,采用以粒径测试为依据的团聚效率作为评价指标,结果显示,2600 Hz声波与喷雾单独作用时团聚效率分别为30.37%和28.82%,协同作用时团聚效率大幅提升至57.95%。该研究可为后续造粒塔工程改造提供理论与数据支持。

Comparison of the Structural Evolution of β Polypropylene during the Sequential and Simultaneous Biaxial Stretching Process

In this work, the lamellar structural evolution and microvoids variations of β polypropylene(β-PP) during the processing of two different stretching methods, sequential biaxial stretching and simultaneous biaxial stretching, were investigated in detail. It was found that different stretching methods led to significantly different lamellae deformation modes, and the microporous membranes obtained from the simultaneous biaxial stretching exhibited better mechanical properties. For the sequential biaxial stretching, abundant coarse fibers originated from the tight accumulation of the lamellae parallel to the longitudinal stretching direction, whereas the lamellae perpendicular to the stretching direction were easily deformed and separated. Those coarse fibers were difficult to be separated to form micropores during the subsequent transverse stretching process, resulting in a poor micropores distribution. However, for the simultaneous biaxial stretching, the β crystal had the same deformation mode, that is, the lamellae distributed in different directions were all destroyed, forming abundant microvoids and little coarse fibers.     

Insights into the Allosteric Effect of SENP1 Q597A Mutation on the Hydrolytic Reaction of SUMO1 via an Integrated Computational Study

Small ubiquitin-related modifier (SUMO)-specific protease 1 (SENP1) is a cysteine protease that catalyzes the cleavage of the C-terminus of SUMO1 for the processing of SUMO precursors and deSUMOylation of target proteins. SENP1 is considered to be a promising target for the treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and prostate cancer. SENP1 Gln597 is located at the unstructured loop connecting the helices α4 to α5. The Q597A mutation of SENP1 allosterically disrupts the hydrolytic reaction of SUMO1 through an unknown mechanism. Here, extensive multiple replicates of microsecond molecular dynamics (MD) simulations, coupled with principal component analysis, dynamic cross-correlation analysis, community network analysis, and binding free energy calculations, were performed to elucidate the detailed mechanism. Our MD simulations showed that the Q597A mutation induced marked dynamic conformational changes in SENP1, especially in the unstructured loop connecting the helices α4 to α5 which the mutation site occupies. Moreover, the Q597A mutation caused conformational changes to catalytic Cys603 and His533 at the active site, which might impair the catalytic activity of SENP1 in processing SUMO1. Moreover, binding free energy calculations revealed that the Q597A mutation had a minor effect on the binding affinity of SUMO1 to SENP1. Together, these results may broaden our understanding of the allosteric modulation of the SENP1−SUMO1 complex.
