Published in 2017 at "ChemCatChem"

DOI: 10.1002/cctc.201601441

Abstract: The employment of metal salts is quite limited in asymmetric catalysis, although it would provide an additional arsenal of safe and inexpensive reagents to create molecular functions with high optical purity. Cation chelation by polyethers… read more here.

Published in 2017 at "Journal of the American Chemical Society"

DOI: 10.1021/jacs.7b05832

Abstract: Reductive condensations of alcohols with aldehydes/ketones to generate ethers are catalyzed by a readily accessible thiourea organocatalyst that operates in combination with HCl. 1,1,3,3-tetramethyldisiloxane serves as a convenient reducing reagent. This strategy is applicable to… read more here.

Published in 2025 at "Molecular Biology and Evolution"

DOI: 10.1093/molbev/msaf215

Abstract: Abstract How does enzymatic activity emerge? To shed light on this fundamental question, we study type B dihydrofolate reductases (DfrB), which were discovered for their role in antibiotic resistance. These rudimentary enzymes are evolutionarily distinct… read more here.

Published in 2017 at "Open Biology"

DOI: 10.1098/rsob.160327

Abstract: Macrodomains are ubiquitous conserved domains that bind or transform ADP-ribose (ADPr) metabolites. In humans, they are involved in transcription, X-chromosome inactivation, neurodegeneration and modulating PARP1 signalling, making them potential targets for therapeutic agents. Unfortunately, some… read more here.
