The enhancer RNA ARIEL activates the oncogenic transcriptional program in T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia by Tan, Shi Hao, Leong, Wei Zhong, Ngoc, Phuong Cao Thi, Tan, Tze King, Bertulfo, Fatima Carla, Lim, Mei Chee, An, Omer, Li, Zhenhua, Yeoh, Allen Eng Juh, Tenen, Daniel G., Sanda, Takaomi, Fullwood, Melissa Jane

“…We demonstrated that ARIEL is specifically activated in TAL1+ T-ALL cases, and its expression is associated with ARID5B enhancer activity. ARIEL recruits mediator proteins to the ARID5B enhancer, promotes enhancer-promoter interactions, and activates the expression of ARID5B, thereby positively regulating the TAL1-induced transcriptional program and the MYC oncogene. …”

Kinetics and mechanism of the alkaline hydrolysis of securinine by Lajis, Nordin H., Khan, Mohammad Niyaz, M. Noor, Hamdan

“…The observed pseudo‐first‐order rate constants reveal a decrease of approximately 4‐fold due to the increase in the MeCN content from 4 to 50% (v/v) in mixed aqueous solvent. The temperature dependence of the rate of hydrolysis follows the Eyring equation, which yields ΔH* and ΔS* as 11.0 kcal mol−1 and –34.5 cal deg−1 mol−1, respectively. …”
