Enzymatic Hydrolysis of Human Milk Oligosaccharides. The Molecular Mechanism of Bifidobacterium Bifidum Lacto-N-biosidase
(American Chemical Society, 2022)
Bifidobacterium bifidum lacto-N-biosidase (LnbB) is a critical enzyme for the degradation of human milk oligosaccharides in the gut microbiota of breast-fed infants. Guided by recent crystal structures, ...
Development of green/red-absorbing chromophores based on a coumarin scaffold that are useful as caging groups
(American Chemical Society, 2017-05)
We report the design, synthesis, and spectroscopic characterization of a series of push–pull chromophores based on a novel coumarin scaffold in which the carbonyl of the lactone function of the original ...
Analytical parameters of an amperometric glucose biosensor for fast analysis in food samples
(MDPI, 2017-11-14)
Amperometric biosensors based on the use of glucose oxidase (GOx) are able to combine the robustness of electrochemical techniques with the specificity of biological recognition processes. However, very ...
Una visión moderna sobre la desactivación de cetonas aromáticas por beta-fenilos
(Asociación de Químicos e Ingenieros del Instituto Químico de Sarrià, 2016-04)
La desactivación por beta fenilos (en inglés, Beta Phenyl Quenching o BPQ) es una reacción que se produce a partir del estado triplete de cetonas aromáticas con un grupo fenilo en posición beta. Esta ...
Creation of Ionically Crosslinked Tri-Layered Chitosan Membranes to Simulate Different Human Skin Properties
(MDPI, 2021-06-23)
In 2023, new legislation will ban the use of animals in the cosmetic industry worldwide. This fact, together with ethical considerations concerning the use of animals or humans in scientific research, ...
Cyclic Homo- and Heterohalogen Di-λ3-diarylhalonium Structures
(American Chemical Society, 2023-06-28)
In the context of the ever-growing interest in the cyclic diaryliodonium salts, this work presents synthetic design principles for a new family of structures with two hypervalent halogens in the ring. ...
Chloroplast engineering of the green microalgae Chlamydomonas reinhardtii for the production of HAA, the lipid moiety of rhamnolipid biosurfactants
(Elsevier, 2023-04-11)
Hydroxyalkanoyloxyalkanoates (HAA) are lipidic surfactants with a number of potential applications, but more remarkably, they are the biosynthetic precursors of rhamnolipids (RL), which are preferred ...
Protease-Resistant Peptides for Targeting and Intracellular Delivery of Therapeutics
(MDPI, 2021-12-02)
Peptides show high promise in the targeting and intracellular delivery of next-generation bio- and nano-therapeutics. However, the proteolytic susceptibility of peptides is one of the major limitations ...
1,6-Naphthyridin-2(1H)-ones: Synthesis and Biomedical Applications
(MDPI, 2021-10-09)
Naphthyridines, also known as diazanaphthalenes, are a group of heterocyclic compounds that include six isomeric bicyclic systems containing two pyridine rings. 1,6-Naphthyridines are one of the members ...
High photostability in nonconventional coumarins with far-red/NIR emission through azetidinyl substitution
(American Chemical Society, 2018-08)
Replacement of electron-donating N,N-dialkyl groups with three- or four-membered cyclic amines (e.g., aziridine and azetidine, respectively) has been described as a promising approach to improve some ...
