Abstract
Hypochlorous acid (HClO) is a crucial active oxygen component and one of the innate immunity's barrier substances in the body. Abnormal fluctuations in HClO concentration can lead to increased oxidative stress, cellular dysfunction, and the onset of various diseases. Thus, developing convenient, affordable, efficient, and sensitive methods to monitor HClO concentration in healthcare and pathophysiology research is highly significant. In this study, we developed a novel fluorescence strategy for HClO detection based on nucleic acid oxidative cleavage and Pb2+-dependent DNAzyme. By introducing a phosphorothioate site in the hairpin-structured nucleic acid sequence, the nucleic acid probe specifically recognized HClO and underwent oxidative cleavage. Upon cleavage, the enzyme strand is liberated, forming DNAzyme. This DNAzyme then cleaves the substrate strand, liberating the initially quenched fluorescent dyes and generating a turn-on fluorescent signal. The enzyme strand produced by the oxidative cleavage of HClO can be repeatedly utilized, thus realizing the cyclic signal amplification to reduce background noise. We verified the detection mechanism of this strategy through stepwise fluorescence spectroscopy analysis and electrophoresis. Under optimal experimental conditions, the method achieved a detection limit of 5.38 nM and a linear range of 1 nM-800 nM. This method demonstrated exceptional performance in actual biological sample testing and presented an exciting opportunity for expanded utilization in clinical diagnosis and medical research.

Abstract
Lytic polysaccharide monooxygenases (LPMOs) play a key role in enzymatic conversion of plant cell wall polysaccharides. Continuous discovery and functional characterization of LPMOs highly contribute to the tailor-made design and improvement of hydrolytic-activity based enzyme cocktails. In this context, a new MtLPMO9F was characterized for its substrate (xyloglucan) specificity, and MtLPMO9H was further delineated. Aided by sodium borodeuteride reduction and hydrophilic interaction chromatography coupled to mass spectrometric analysis, we found that both MtLPMOs released predominately C4-oxidized, and C4/C6-double oxidized xylogluco-oligosaccharides. Further characterization showed that MtLPMO9F, having a short active site segment 1 and a long active site segment 2 (-Seg1+Seg2), followed a "substitution-intolerant" xyloglucan cleavage profile, while for MtLPMO9H (+Seg1-Seg2) a "substitution-tolerant" profile was found. The here characterized xyloglucan specificity and substitution (in)tolerance of MtLPMO9F and MtLPMO9H were as predicted according to our previously published phylogenetic grouping of AA9 LPMOs based on structural active site segment configurations.

Abstract
From aerial parts of Austroeupatorium inulifolium was isolated the ent-nor-furano triol labdane austroeupatol 1. The compound 1 was treated with IBX showing an unexpected selectivity at the potentially oxidizable sites of the substrate yielding the 2-oxoaustroeupatol (2) and 2,19-dioxoaustroeupatol (3). The treatment of 2 with sodium periodate yields a heterocyclic derivative (ε-caprolactone derivate 4) formed by oxidative cleavage and unexpected intramolecular attack of the hydroxymethylene (C-19) oxygen to the ketonic carbon (C-2). A plausible mechanistic pathway for the obtention of compound 4 is proposed.

Abstract
We describe the novel oxidative fragmentation of methyl (5-acetamido-4,7,8,9-tetra-O-acetyl-5-deoxy-3-O-trifluoromethanesulfonyl-β-D-erythro-L-gluco-2-nonulopyranos)onate 2 on stirring with sodium nitrite in DMF to give the novel 3-acetamido-2,5,6,7-tetra-O-acetyl-d-glycero-d-galacto-heptono-1,4-lactone 3 in excellent yield. Stirring of the same triflate with sodium carbonate on the other hand affords the novel methyl (5-acetamido-7,8,9-tri-O-acetyl-3,6-anhydro-5-deoxy-d-manno-3-ene-2-nonulos)onate 19 also in excellent yield. Reduction of the heptono lactone with sodium borohydride followed by acetylation gives a peracetylated aminodeoxyheptitol 6 that adopts the zig zag conformation of its carbon backbone.

Abstract
A strategy towards the synthesis of three different target molecules, namely 1,4-dideoxy-1,4-imino-l-xylitol, deacetyl (+)-anisomycin and amino-substituted piperidine iminosugars, molecules of potential biological and medicinal significance, is reported from a common amino-vicinal diol intermediate derived from tri-O-benzyl-d-glucal. Construction of the key pyrrolidine ring present in 1,4-dideoxy-1,4-imino-l-xylitol and (+)-anisomycin was a consequence of thermodynamically driven concomitant intramolecular nucleophilic addition reaction of the amino group to the resultant aldehyde obtained by oxidative cleavage of the amino-vicinal diol. Alternatively, double nucleophilic substitution on an amino-diol, after mesylation, with various amines delivered amino-substituted piperidine iminosugars in good yields.

Abstract
Two novel oxovanadium(IV) complexes [VOL1]SO4(1) and [VOL2]SO4(2) containing Knoevenagel condensate Schiff base ligand (L1/L2) have been synthesized and characterized by physical, spectral and analytical methods. These complexes are reported as ionic in nature on the basis of elemental composition and molar conductance, and possess square pyramidal geometry around the central metal ions. The binding interactions of (1) and (2) with calf thymus DNA (CT DNA) were explored by absorption spectrophotometric titration, cyclic voltammetry data and viscosity measurements. The calculated intrinsic binding constant values (Kb) for (1) and (2) obtained from UV-Vis absorption studies are 0.4×105 and 5.6×105 (M-1) respectively. These experimental results indicate that (1) and (2) are intercalative binders and avid binder to CT DNA with different affinities. These complexes exhibit significant oxidative cleavage of supercoiled plasmid (pUC18) DNA in the presence of activators. In particular, the in vitro antimicrobial efficacy of oxovanadium(IV) complexes reveal that they are more active than free ligands. Besides, the in vitro cytotoxic effect of the titled complexes were examined on a bundle of human tumor cell lines such as MCF-7 and HeLa cancerous cell lines by the MTT method. Interestingly, complex (2) exhibits more potent cytotoxic activity than the other complex and standard drug (cisplatin). The mode of cell death was assessed by Hoechst 33258 staining morphological studies.

Few novel transition metal complexes having N-((2-aminophenyl)(phenyl)methylene)-4-nitroaniline were synthesized and characterized by elemental analyses, IR, (1)H and (13)C NMR, electronic, EPR and mass spectra, conductivity and magnetic susceptibility measurements. All the metal complexes adopted square planar geometrical arrangements. The DNA-binding properties of the metal(II) complexes have been investigated by electronic absorption, fluorescence, CD spectra, cyclic voltammetry, differential pulse voltammogram and viscosity measurements. The results obtained indicate that these complexes bind to DNA via an intercalation binding mode. DNA cleavage activities indicate that the metal complexes exhibit greater activity than the ligand. The antimicrobial screening reveals that all the metal complexes exhibit better activity than the free ligand.

Abstract
Two diketone based oxovanadium complexes, viz., bis(4,4,4-trifluoro-1-phenylbutane-1,3-dionato)oxovanadium(IV) (1) and bis(1,1,1-trifluoropentane-2,4-dionato)oxovanadium(IV) (2), have been synthesized and characterized by spectroscopic and analytical techniques. The DNA binding and the cleaving ability of the complexes is assessed by UV-vis spectroscopy, fluorescence spectroscopy, viscometry and gel electrophoretic studies. The DNA binding constant values (Kb) are found to be 1.95 ± 0.16 × 10(3)M(-1) for complex 1 and 1.064 ± 0.17 × 10(3)M(-1) for complex 2, respectively. Based on the results of the spectral and viscosity studies, it is observed that the complexes, interestingly, have preferred minor groove binding with DNA. Further, the concentration-dependent oxidative cleavage pattern of pBR322 in the presence of the activating reagent, hydrogen peroxide, has also been discussed. In addition, the complexes have shown moderate cytotoxic activity by inducing apoptosis against the cervical cancer cell line, HeLa. The results of in silico analysis and logP predictions are found to be in good agreement with the experimental observations. Thus, synthesized oxovanadium complexes have displayed promising DNA binding behavior and DNA cleavage activity with moderately cytotoxic nature.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The understanding of enzymatic polysaccharide degradation has progressed intensely in the past few years with the identification of a new class of fungal-secreted enzymes, the lytic polysaccharide monooxygenases (LPMOs) that enhance cellulose conversion. In the fungal kingdom, saprotrophic fungi display a high number of genes encoding LPMOs from family AA9 but the functional relevance of this redundancy is not fully understood. RESULTS In this study, we investigated a set of AA9 LPMOs identified in the secretomes of the coprophilous ascomycete Podospora anserina, a biomass degrader of recalcitrant substrates. Their activity was assayed on cellulose in synergy with the cellobiose dehydrogenase from the same organism. We showed that the total release of oxidized oligosaccharides from cellulose was higher for PaLPMO9A, PaLPMO9E, and PaLPMO9H that harbored a carbohydrate-binding module from the family CBM1. Investigation of their regioselective mode of action revealed that PaLPMO9A and PaLPMO9H oxidatively cleaved at both C1 and C4 positions while PaLPMO9E released only C1-oxidized products. Rapid cleavage of cellulose was observed using PaLPMO9H that was the most versatile in terms of substrate specificity as it also displayed activity on cello-oligosaccharides and β-(1,4)-linked hemicellulose polysaccharides (e.g., xyloglucan, glucomannan). CONCLUSIONS This study provides insights into the mode of cleavage and substrate specificities of fungal AA9 LPMOs that will facilitate their application for the development of future biorefineries.

Abstract
The 4-aminoantipyrine derivatives (NO2, OCH3) and their mixed-ligand complexes with amino acids have been synthesized and investigated for their binding with CT DNA using UV-visible spectroscopy, cyclic voltammetry, and viscosity measurements under physiological conditions of pH (stomach 4.7; blood 7.4). The results from all techniques i.e. binding constant (Kb), and free energy change (ΔG) were in good agreement and inferred spontaneous compound-DNA complexes formation via intercalation. Among all the compounds 1 and 4 showed comparatively greater binding at pH 7.4 as evident from its greater Kb values. All the complexes exhibit oxidative cleavage of supercoiled (SC) pBR322 plasmid DNA in the presence of H2O2 as an activator. It is remarkable that at 25μM concentration 1 and 4 completely degrade SC DNA into undetectable minor fragments and thus they act as efficient chemical nucleases. Among the new complexes, complexes 1 and 4 have highest potential against all the microorganisms tested. The results of the above biological experiments also reveal that the choice of different metal ions has little influence on the DNA binding, DNA cleavage and antimicrobial assay.

Abstract
A new ternary copper(II)-dipeptide complex [Cu(glygly)(HPB)(Cl)]⋅2H2O (glygly=glycylglycine anion, HPB=2-(2'-pyridyl)benzimidazole) has been synthesized and characterized. The DNA interaction of the complex was studied by spectroscopic methods, viscosity, and electrophoresis measurements. The antioxidant activity was also investigated using the pyrogallol autoxidation assay. Besides, the interaction of the complex with human serum albumin (HSA) in vitro was examined by multispectroscopic techniques. The complex partially intercalated to CT-DNA with a high binding constant (Kb=7.28×10(5) M(-1)), and cleaved pBR322 DNA efficiently via an oxidative mechanism in the presence of Vc, with the HO· and O2(-) as the active species, and the SOD as a promoter. Furthermore, the complex shows a considerable SOD-like activity with the IC50 value of 3.8386 μM. The complex exhibits desired binding affinity to HSA, in which hydrogen bond or vander Waals force played a major role. The alterations of HSA secondary structure induced by the complex were confirmed by UV-visible, CD, synchronous fluorescence and 3D fluorescence spectroscopy.

Abstract
Recognizing the functionality of the pentacyclic steroidal derivative 7a as important synthon to obtain new brassinosteroid analogs, we have accomplished the derivatization of hecogenin, a sapogenin from the 25R serie containing a carbonyl group at C-12, to a 22,23-dioxocholestanic chain derivative. Starting from hecogenin acetate (5a) or hecogenin tosylate (5b), we obtained two pentacyclic derivatives (7a and 7b) which were subjected to an oxidation reaction on the double bond at C-12(23) to obtain a 22,23-dioxocholestanic chain, with the regeneration of the carbonyl group at C-12. Reduction of the carbonyl groups lead to the 20-epi-12,23-dihydroxy-22-oxo system 11a-b. The absolute configuration of compound 11a was established by X-ray diffraction analysis.

Abstract
The aim of the present study was to compare the degradation of β-D-glucan induced by hydroxyl radical to the degradation induced by heat treatment. β-D-Glucan was quickly and widely degraded by the action of hydroxyl radicals produced by a Fenton system at 85 °C, while thermal hydrolysis at 85 °C induced slow β-D-glucan depolymerization. The hydroxyl radical-induced degradation of β-D-glucan was accompanied by the formation of peroxyl radicals and new oxidized functional groups (i.e. lactones, carboxylic acids, ketones and aldehydes), as detected by ESR and NMR, respectively. In contrast, no changes in the monomer chemical structure of β-D-glucan were observed upon thermal hydrolysis. Therefore, different mechanisms are proposed for the oxidative cleavage of β-D-glucan, which are initiated by the presence of an unpaired electron on the anomeric carbon.
