Cloning, structure, cellular localization, and possible function of the tumor suppressor gene lethal(3)malignant blood neoplasm-1 of Drosophila melan…

1994

The tumor suppressor gene, lethal(3)malignant blood neoplasm-1+, of Drosophila melanogaster is required for the differentiation of the phagocytic blood-cell type, the plasmatocyte. In the homozygously mutated state it causes the malignant transformation of these blood cells. We present here the cloning, sequencing, structure, and expression of the l(3)mbn-1+ gene during development. The cloned gene was identified by germ-line transformation, generation of revertants, and the detection of the corresponding mRNA in blood cells and other tissues. Homologies of the G-S-rich C-terminus of the putative MBN83 protein to human cytokeratins K1, K10, and mouse loricrin were found. The structure and p…

The Mutation without childrenrgl Causes Ecdysteroid Deficiency in Third-Instar Larvae of Drosophila melanogaster

2000

Larvae homozygous for the recessive lethal allele without children(rgl) (woc(rgl)) fail to pupariate. Application of exogenous 20-hydroxyecdysone elicits puparium formation and pupation. Ecdysteroid titer measurements on mutant larvae show an endocrine deficiency in the brain-ring gland complex, which normally synthesizes ecdysone, resulting in a failure of the larvae to achieve a threshold whole body hormone titer necessary for molting. Ultrastructural investigation revealed extensive degeneration of the prothoracic cells of the ring gland in older larvae. The woc gene, located in polytene chromosomal region 97F, consists of 11 exons. A 6.8-kb transcript is expressed throughout development…

Manipulating mtDNA in vivo reprograms metabolism via novel response mechanisms.

2019

Mitochondria have been increasingly recognized as a central regulatory nexus for multiple metabolic pathways, in addition to ATP production via oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS). Here we show that inducing mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) stress in Drosophila using a mitochondrially-targeted Type I restriction endonuclease (mtEcoBI) results in unexpected metabolic reprogramming in adult flies, distinct from effects on OXPHOS. Carbohydrate utilization was repressed, with catabolism shifted towards lipid oxidation, accompanied by elevated serine synthesis. Cleavage and translocation, the two modes of mtEcoBI action, repressed carbohydrate rmetabolism via two different mechanisms. DNA cleavage activ…

Unraveling the literature chaos around free ammonia inhibition in anaerobic digestion

2020

International audience; This review aims at providing a unified methodology for free ammonia nitrogen (FAN) calculation in anaerobic digesters, also identifying the factors causing the huge disparity in FAN inhibitory limits. Results show that assuming ideal equilibria overestimates the FAN concentrations up to 37% when compared to MINTEQA2 Equilibrium Speciation Model, used as reference. The Davies equation led to major improvements. Measuring the concentrations of NH 4 þ , Na þ and K þ was enough to achieve major corrections. The best compromise between complexity and accuracy was achieved with a novel modified Davies equation, with systematic differences in FAN concentrations of 2% when …

Catalytic Efficiency of a New Tridentate Ferrocenyl Phosphine Auxiliary: Sonogashira Cross-Coupling Reactions of Alkynes with Aryl Bromides and Chlor…

2005

[structure: see text] The catalytic activity in Sonogashira cross-coupling reactions of alkynes with a variety of aryl halides (including chlorides) using a multidentate ferrocenyl phosphine is presented. The novel mixed ferrocenyl aryl/alkyl triphosphine is thermally stable and insensitive to air or moisture, and its robustness allows aryl alkynylation at 10(-1) to 10(-4) mol % catalyst loadings with TONs up to 250,000. Copper-free coupling using phenylacetylene is also accessible in good yield.

Copper(I) Iodide Polyphosphine Adducts at Low Loading for Sonogashira Alkynylation of Demanding Halide Substrates: Ligand Exchange Study between Copp…

2010

The prestabilization of copper iodide with a multidentate ferrocenyl phosphine ligand promotes the palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling of demanding halides with phenylacetylene in a selective way. Novel CuI-triphosphine adducts are described in the solid state and in solution. Their use allowed the introduction of the copper iodide cocatalyst in unprecedented low amounts (0.4 to 0.1 mol %) in systems also employing low amounts of “ligand-free” [PdII(η3-allyl)Cl]2 precursor (0.2 to 0.05 mol %). The scope of substrates is reported, and electronically or sterically deactivated bromides were efficiently coupled. Concerning aryl chlorides, electron-poor activated substrates were also coupled usin…

A conjugated polymer with ethyl 2-(2-(pyridin-2-yl)-1H-benzo[d]imidazol-1-yl) acetate units as a novel fluorescent chemosensor for silver(I) detection

2013

Abstract A novel conjugated polymer ( P1 ) containing fluorene and ethyl 2-(2-(pyridin-2-yl)-1 H -benzo[ d ]imidazol-1-yl)acetate (PBMA) was designed and successfully synthesized through the Sonogashira coupling reaction. P1 shows high sensitivity and selectivity for Ag + detection in comparison to other metal cations. Upon addition of Ag + , the fluorescent emission of the polymer solution in THF was quenched dramatically, accompanying the color changed from blue to green. The detection limit for Ag + was 5 × 10 −8  mol L −1 . However, the similar copolymers P2 and P3 containing 2-(pyridin-2-yl)-1 H -benzo[ d ]imidazole and 2-(thiophen-2-yl)-1 H -benzo[ d ]imidazole, respectively, did not …

Rational synthetic design of well-defined Pt(bisethynyl)/Zn(porphyrin) oligomers for potential applications in photonics

2011

Well-defined oligomers of 1, 2, 3 and 4 units built upon the very soluble bis-1,15-(1,4-ethynylbenzene)-3,7,13,17-tetramethyl-2,8,12,18-tetrakis(n-hexyl) zinc(II) porphyrin ligand and the trans-bis(tri-n-butylphosphine)platinum(II) linker, with acetylene or trimethylsilane as end groups, has been prepared in the presence of a dichloromethane/diethylamine mixture (1 : 1 v/v) and CuX (X = Cl, I) at room temperature, analogue to a Sonogashira coupling. The new monodisperse organometallic oligomers were characterized by 1H, 31P NMR, UV-visible spectroscopies and MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry. The methyl groups placed at the 3,7,13,17-positions induces the locking of the C6H4 fragment in a perpend…
