Insight into the Mechanism of Inactivation of Ribonucleotide Reductase by Gemcitabine 5′-Diphosphate in the Presence or Absence of Reductant by Artin, Erin, Wang, Jun, Lohman, Gregory J. S., Yokoyama, Kenichi, Yu, Guixue, Bar, Galit, Stubbe, JoAnne, Griffin, Robert Guy

“…In the presence of reductant (thioredoxin/thioredoxin reductase/NADPH or DTT), the enzyme inactivation results from its covalent labeling of α with the sugar of F[subscript 2]CDP (one label/α2β2). SDS-PAGE analysis of the inactivated RNR without boiling of the sample reveals that α migrates as an 87 and 110 kDa protein in a ratio of 0.6:0.4. …”

Low subjective socioeconomic status alters taste-based perceptual sensitivity to the energy density of beverages by Lim, Elizabeth X., Forde, Ciarán G., Cheon, Bobby Kyungbeom

“…Lower socioeconomic status (SES) is associated with increased consumption of energy-dense foods and sugar-sweetened beverages. Recent findings suggest that the mere perception of having lower subjective SES (SSES) compared to others was sufficient to elicit heightened preferences and consumption of higher energy foods and meals. …”

Site-selective C-O bond editing of unprotected saccharides by Wang, Guanjie, Ho, Chang Chin, Zhou, Zhixu, Hao, Yong-Jia, Lv, Jie, Jin, Jiamiao, Jin, Zhichao, Chi, Robin Yonggui

“…Within the expansive realm of saccharides, a significant area of research revolves around chemically transforming naturally abundant saccharide units to intricate or uncommon molecules such as oligosaccharides or rare sugars. However, partly due to the presence of multiple hydroxyl groups with similar reactivities and the structural complexities arising from stereochemistry, the transformation of unprotected sugars to the desired target molecules remains challenging. …”
