The design of small molecules that inhibit disease-relevant proteins represents a longstanding challenge of medicinal chemistry. Here, we describe an approach for encoding this challenge-the inhibition of a human drug target-into a microbial host and using it to guide the discovery and biosynthesis of targeted, biologically active natural products. This approach identified two previously unknown terpenoid inhibitors of protein tyrosine phosphatase 1B (PTP1B), an elusive therapeutic target for the treatment of diabetes and cancer. Both inhibitors appear to target an allosteric site, which confers selectivity, and can inhibit PTP1B in living cells. A screen of 24 uncharacterized terpene synthases from a pool of 4464 genes uncovered additional hits, demonstrating a scalable discovery approach, and the incorporation of different PTPs into the microbial host yielded alternative PTP-specific detection systems. Findings illustrate the potential for using microbes to discover and build natural products that exhibit precisely defined biochemical activities yet possess unanticipated structures and/or binding sites.Adaptability could meet basic technological application requirements. Therefore, a hydrogel-based transducer with durable adhesion, ultrahigh toughness, and super resilience was highly demanded. Here, a skin-like hydrogel transducer was successfully prepared through introducing carboxymethyl chitosan and sodium caseinate into a polyacrylamide hydrogel system. In addition, the polyacrylamide-sodium casein-carboxymethyl chitosan (PAAM-SC-CC) hydrogel has strong mechanical properties and excellent mechanical flexibility, largely due to the adequate energy dissipation mechanism. Surprisingly, the PAAM-SC-CC hydrogel exhibited stable and reproducible adhesion to various solid substrates and the human skin. Due to abundant free ions driven from sodium caseinate, the PAAM-SC-CC hydrogel could maintain stable and sensitive ionic conductivity without adding additional fillers. Experiments have proved that it can be applied to the field of human motion monitoring with complex signals. Therefore, the PAAM-SC-CC hydrogel sensor could monitor human movement in different strain ranges, including throat movement and joint extension. Such a flexible hydrogel-based transducer with various properties is conceivable to broaden the application field of bioelectrodes, human machines, personalized medical health fields, etc.Chiral light-matter interactions have emerged as a promising area in biophysics and quantum optics. Great progress in enhancing chiral light-matter interactions have been investigated through passive resonators or spontaneous emission. Nevertheless, the interaction between chiral biomolecules and stimulated emission remains unexplored. Here we introduce the concept of a biological chiral laser by amplifying chiral light-matter interactions in an active resonator through stimulated emission process. Green fluorescent proteins or chiral biomolecules encapsulated in Fabry-Perot microcavity served as the gain material while excited by either left-handed or right-handed circularly polarized pump laser. Owing to the nonlinear pump energy dependence of stimulated emission, significant enhancement of chiral light-matter interactions was demonstrated. Detailed experiments and theory revealed that a lasing dissymmetry factor is determined by molecular absorption dissymmetry factor at its excitation wavelength. Finally, chirality transfer was investigated under a stimulated emission process through resonance energy transfer. Our findings elucidate the mechanism of stimulated chiral light-matter interactions, providing better understanding of light-matter interaction in biophysics, chiral sensing, and quantum biophotonics.At present, both native and immobilized nanoparticles are of great importance in many areas of science and technology. In this paper, we have studied magnetic iron oxide nanoparticles and their aggregates bound on woven cotton textiles employing two simple modification procedures. One modification was based on the treatment of textiles with perchloric-acid-stabilized magnetic fluid diluted with methanol followed by drying. compound 991 molecular weight The second procedure was based on the microwave-assisted conversion of ferrous sulfate at high pH followed by drying. The structure and functional properties of these modified textiles were analyzed in detail. Scanning electron microscopy of native and modified textiles clearly showed the presence of iron oxide nanoparticles on the surface of the modified cotton fibers. All of the modified textile materials exhibited light to dark brown color depending on the amount of the bound iron oxide particles. Magnetic measurements showed that the saturation magnetization values reflect the amount ofsuch as decolorization and degradation of selected organic dyes and other important pollutants. Other types of textile-bound nanozymes can be prepared and used as low-cost catalysts for a variety of applications.Staphylococcus epidermidis is a leading cause of hospital-acquired infections. Traditional antibiotics have significantly reduced efficacy against this pathogen due to its ability to form biofilms on abiotic surfaces and drug resistance. The accessory gene regulator (agr) quorum sensing system is directly involved in S. epidermidis pathogenesis. Activation of agr is achieved via binding of the autoinducing peptide (AIP) signal to the extracellular sensor domain of its cognate receptor, AgrC. Divergent evolution has given rise to four agr specificity groups in S. epidermidis defined by the unique AIP sequence used by each group (AIPs-I-IV) with observed cross-group activities. As agr agonism has been shown to reduce biofilm growth in S. epidermidis, the development of pan-group activators of the agr system is of interest as a potential antivirulence strategy. To date, no synthetic compounds have been identified that are capable of appreciably activating the agr system of more than one specificity group of S. epidermidis or, to our knowledge, of any of the other Staphylococci. Here, we report the characterization of the structure-activity relationships for agr agonism by S. epidermidis AIP-II and AIP-III and the application of these new SAR data and those previously reported for AIP-I for the design and synthesis of the first multigroup agr agonists. These non-native peptides were capable of inducing the expression of critical biofilm dispersal agents (i.e., phenol-soluble modulins) in cell culture and represent new tools to study the role of quorum sensing in S. epidermidis infections.
