Accurate prediction of relative binding affinities of a series of HIV-1 protease inhibitors using semi-empirical quantum mechanical charge

A major challenge in computer-aided drug design is the accurate estimation of ligand binding affinity. Here, a new approach that combines the adaptive steered molecular dynamics (ASMD) and partial atomic charges calculated by semi-empirical quantum mechanics (SQMPC), namely ASMD-SQMPC, is suggested to predict the ligand binding affinities, with 24 HIV-1 protease inhibitors as testing examples. In the ASMD-SQMPC, the relative binding free energy (ΔG) is reflected by the average maximum potential of mean force (<PMF>_max) between bound and unbound states. The correlation coefficient (R²) between the <PMF>_max and experimentally determined ΔG is 0.86, showing a significant improvement compared with the conventional ASMD (R² = 0.52). Therefore, this study provides an efficient approach to predict the relative ΔG and reveals the significance of precise partial atomic charges in the theoretical simulations.     

The miracle role of lattice imperfections in benzene alkylation with methanol over mordenite

Mordenite (MOR) has demonstrated potential as a catalyst for alkylation due to high variability, intrinsic porosity, and outstanding stability. However, the contact probability of benzene and methanol has been limited by typical layered structures of MOR and there is no connection between layers. Here, we report the preparedness of H-MOR via a sequential post-treatment method based on a commercial MOR. H-MOR sample had appeared lattice imperfections inferred from characterization means. The samples were tested with benezene methylation reaction. Results show that the high conversion of benzene and the high selectivity of toluene were obtained from the miracle role of lattice imperfections in the H-MOR sample. Sequentially, based on the study of all catalyst structure and physical properties, a plausible reaction mechanism for the selectivity of the desired toluene was proposed.     

The effect of polymer dispersions on the early hydration of calcium sulfoaluminate cement

The influence of three polymer dispersions [styrene–butadiene copolymer (SB), styrene–acrylic ester copolymer (SA) and polyacrylic ester (PA)] on the hydration of calcium sulfoaluminate (CSA) cement within 72 h was investigated by using isothermal conduction calorimetry, X-ray diffraction analysis and thermal gravimetric analysis. The results indicate that these three polymer dispersions perform different influences on the hydration heat flow of CSA cement during different periods, they all postpone the occurrence time of the maxima peaks, and its extent is mainly dependent on the addition amount. Polymer dispersions manifest great retardation on the initial hydration of CSA cement, and the effect is much more significant within 1 h. In this stage, the generation of ettringite is strongly delayed; however, the formation of ettringite is accelerated by these polymer dispersions at and after 2 h. Among these three polymer dispersions, PA demonstrates the highest acceleration effect on the hydration degree.

基于电化学发光和阻抗技术研究DNA单碱基错配

单碱基错配的识别和稳定性差异在核酸多态性研究中至关重要。在同一电化学传感器平台上,采用电化学发光（ECL）和电化学阻抗（EIS）2种技术,协同研究DNA链中不同类型和不同位点的单碱基错配识别和稳定性差异。电极表面具有茎环构象的探针DNA与完全互补DNA、不同类型或不同位点单碱基错配DNA杂交前后的ECL和EIS信号强度变化有显著差异。信号强度变化可揭示单碱基错配识别的稳定性。结果表明,DNA链中心位点的C-A单碱基错配稳定性低于链两端的,靠近键合电极表面双链链端的C-A单碱基错配稳定性低于非键合电极表面双链链端的,同一中心位点C-X碱基对的稳定性顺序为C-G?C-T>C-A≥C-C。研究结果可为核酸多态性研究提供参考。     

A Double-Site Chemodosimeter for Selective Fluorescence Detection of a Nerve Agent Mimic

A novel two-site chemodosimeter (SWJT-4) based on fluorescein skeleton to detect diethyl chlorophosphate (DCP) was designed and synthesized. It is a turn-on fluorescent probe for DCP with good selectivity and obvious color change in aqueous solution. Interestingly, the two oxime groups of SWJT-4 as dual response sites initiated different reactions with DCP to form a cyano group and an isoxazole ring, respectively. The corresponding mechanism was confirmed by ¹H NMR, MS and DFT calculation. Moreover, SWJT-4 could be used as a fluorescent test paper to detect DCP vapor.
