Inkjet-Printed and Nanopatterned Photonic Phosphor Motifs with Strongly Polarized and Directional Light-Emission
Herein a versatile and scalable method to prepare periodically corrugated nanophosphor surface patterns displaying strongly polarized and directional visible light emission is demonstrated. A combination of inkjet printing and soft lithography techniques is employed...
Dynamic Kinetic Resolution of 2-(Quinolin-8-yl)benzaldehydes: Atroposelective Iridium-Catalyzed Transfer Hydrogenative Allylation
An atroposelective Ir-catalyzed dynamic kinetic resolution (DKR) of 2-(quinolin-8-yl)benzaldehydes/1-naphthaldehydes by transfer hydrogenative coupling of allyl acetate is disclosed. The allylation reaction takes place with simultaneous installation of central and...
Cytochrome c lysine acetylation regulates cellular respiration and cell death in ischemic skeletal muscle
Skeletal muscle is more resilient to ischemia-reperfusion injury than other organs. Tissue specific post-translational modifications of cytochrome c (Cytc) are involved in ischemia-reperfusion injury by regulating mitochondrial respiration and apoptosis. Here, we...
Stress response requires efficient glycogen and central carbon metabolism connection by phosphoglucomutases in cyanobacteria
Glycogen and starch are the main storage polysaccharides, acting as a source of carbon and energy when necessary. Interconversion of glucose-1-phosphate and glucose-6-phosphate by phosphoglucomutases connects the metabolism of these polysaccharides with central carbon...
Plastid 2-Cys peroxiredoxins are essential for embryogenesis in Arabidopsis
The redox couple formed by NADPH-dependent thioredoxin reductase C (NTRC) and 2-Cys peroxiredoxins (Prxs) allows fine-tuning chloroplast performance in response to light intensity changes. Accordingly, the Arabidopsis 2cpab mutant lacking 2-Cys Prxs shows growth...
