7 W at 100% opening ratio when the SESHR was filled with 1#PCM.Gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) analysis has revealed extremely high abundances of rearranged hopanes in Jurassic source rocks and related crude oils in the center of the Sichuan Basin. The detected rearranged hopanes include 17α(H)-diahopanes (C27D and C29-35D), early-eluting rearranged hopanes (C27E and C29-33E), and 18α(H)-neohopanes (C29Ts and Ts). Both the 17α(H)-diahopanes and the early-eluting rearranged hopanes exhibit a distribution pattern similar to that of the 17α(H)-hopane series, with a predominance of the C30 member and the presence of 22S and 22R epimers of hopanes in the extended series (>C30). The results of this study show that the relatively high abundance of rearranged hopanes in Jurassic source rocks in the study area is associated with their depositional environments and with clay-mediated acidic catalysis rather than, as was previously thought, thermal maturity. Shallow lacustrine facies with brackish water and a suboxic to weak reducing sedimentary environment have contributed to the enrichment of rearranged hopanes, and clay-mediated acidic catalysis may also have had a positive influence on their abundance. The distribution patterns of the diahopane series indicate that the oils from Jurassic reservoirs in the Gongshanmiao Oilfield are sourced from Jurassic source rocks. Rearranged hopanes are therefore considered to be effective biomarkers for oil-source correlation in the center of the Sichuan Basin.The composite of Pt with transition metals is viewed as the most promising anode material for direct methanol fuel cell (DMFC) applications. Besides the decrease in the Pt loading, these multimetallic structures help in circumventing CO poisoning issues associated with a Pt catalyst. Herein, we prepared and loaded Pt-Sn bimetallic nanoparticles on an electron-rich and stable substrate consisting of graphitic nitride (GCN) and graphene oxide (GO)/reduced graphene oxide (r-GO) hybrid composites. The γ-radiolysis method was employed for coreduction of metal salts to deposit the binary composite of metal nanoparticles over the substrates. These structures were tested as the anode material for the methanol oxidation reaction (MOR). Among various possible combinations, Pt-Sn-loaded rGO-GCN (Pt-Sn/rGO-GCN) demonstrated the current density of ca. 2.4 A/mgPt. To the best of our knowledge, this value is among the highest ones, reported for similar systems in the acidic pH. Furthermore, these composites demonstrated excellent stability in the repeated cycle test. The improved performance is associated to the plenty of -OH groups provided by the Sn counterpart and a large number of adsorption sites from the electron-reached GCN counterpart.An α-amido cyclobutanone possessing a C10 hydrocarbon tail was designed as a potential transition-state mimetic for the quorum-quenching metallo-γ-lactonase autoinducer inactivator A (AiiA) with the support of in-house modeling techniques and found to be a competitive inhibitor of dicobalt(II) AiiA with an inhibition constant of K i = 0.007 ± 0.002 mM. The catalytic mechanism of AiiA was further explored using our product-based transition-state modeling (PBTSM) computational approach, providing substrate-intermediate models arising during enzyme turnover and further insight into substrate-enzyme interactions governing native substrate catalysis. These interactions were targeted in the docking of cyclobutanone hydrates into the active site of AiiA. The X-ray crystal structure of dicobalt(II) AiiA cocrystallized with this cyclobutanone inhibitor unexpectedly revealed an N-(2-oxocyclobutyl)decanamide ring-opened acyclic product bound to the enzyme active site (PDB 7L5F). The C10 alkyl chain and its interaction with the hydrophobic phenylalanine clamp region of AiiA adjacent to the active site enabled atomic placement of the ligand atoms, including the C10 alkyl chain. A mechanistic hypothesis for the ring opening is proposed involving a radical-mediated process.Terrestrial cyanobacteria, originated from aquatic cyanobacteria, exhibit a unique mechanism for drought adaptation during long-term evolution. To elucidate this diverse adaptive mechanism exhibited by terrestrial cyanobacteria from the post-translation modification aspect, we performed a global phosphoproteome analysis on the abundance of phosphoproteins in response to dehydration using Nostoc flagelliforme, a kind of terrestrial cyanobacteria having strong ecological adaptability to xeric environments. A total of 329 phosphopeptides from 271 phosphoproteins with 1168 phosphorylation sites were identified. Among these, 76 differentially expressed phosphorylated proteins (DEPPs) were identified for each dehydration treatment (30, 75, and 100% water loss), compared to control. The identified DEPPs were functionally categorized to be mainly involved in a two-component signaling pathway, photosynthesis, energy and carbohydrate metabolism, and an antioxidant system. We concluded that protein phosphorylation modifications related to the reactive oxygen species (ROS) signaling pathway might play an important role in coordinating enzyme activity involved in the antioxidant system in N. flagelliforme to adapt to dehydration stress. This study provides deep insights into the extensive modification of phosphorylation in terrestrial cyanobacteria using a phosphoproteomic approach, which may help to better understand the role of protein phosphorylation in key cellular mechanisms in terrestrial cyanobacteria in response to dehydration.Facilitating charge separation and increasing surface active sites have always been the goals of photocatalysis. Herein, we synthesized a Ni-doped Zn0.8Cd0.2S hollow sphere photocatalyst with a facile one-step hydrothermal method. Energy-dispersive spectroscopy mapping showed the high dispersion of Ni ions in the Zn0.8Cd0.2S hollow spheres. The experimental results confirmed that Ni doping reduced the band structure of the substrate, suppressed the recombination of photo-induced electrons and holes, and provided more reactive sites. this website Therefore, the photocatalytic activity had been greatly improved. As a consequence, the detected photocatalytic H2 evolution rate increased up to 33.81 mmol·h-1·g-1 over an optimal Ni doping (5 wt %) of Zn0.8Cd0.2S hollow spheres, which was 20.87-fold higher than that of pure CdS. Elemental mapping showed that the Zn element was mainly distributed in the outermost layer of the hollow spheres; this might be the critical factor that enabled Ni-doped Zn x Cd1-x S to maintain excellent stability.
