Genome-wide association studies have identified thousands of noncoding variants associated with human traits and diseases. However, the functional interpretation of these variants is a major challenge. Here, we constructed a multi-tissue atlas of human 3’UTR alternative polyadenylation (APA) quant. trait loci (3’aQTLs), containing approx. 0.4 million common genetic variants associated with the APA of target genes, identified in 46 tissues isolated from 467 individuals (Genotype-Tissue Expression Project). Mechanistically, 3’aQTLs can alter poly(A) motifs, RNA secondary structure and RNA-binding protein-binding sites, leading to thousands of APA changes. Our CRISPR-based experiments indicate that such 3’aQTLs can alter APA regulation. Furthermore, we demonstrate that mapping 3’aQTLs can identify APA regulators, such as La-related protein 4. Finally, 3’aQTLs are colocalized with approx. 16.1% of trait-associated variants and are largely distinct from other QTLs, such as expression QTLs. Together, our findings show that 3’aQTLs contribute substantially to the mol. mechanisms underlying human complex traits and diseases.

Furfural is a platform mol. obtained from hemicellulose. Among the products that can be produced from furfural, furfuryl alc. is one of the most extensively studied. It is synthesized at an industrial scale in the presence of CuCr catalyst, but this process suffers from an environmental neg. impact. Here, we demonstrate that a non-noble metal catalyst (Co/SiO2) was active (100% conversion of furfural) and selective (100% selectivity to furfuryl alc.) in the hydrogenation of furfural to furfuryl alc. at 150°C under 20 bar of hydrogen. This catalyst was recyclable up to 3 cycles, and then the activity decreased. Thus, a comparison between batch and continuous flow reactors shows that changing the reactor type helps to increase the stability of the catalyst and the space-time yield. This study shows that using a continuous flow reactor can be a solution to the catalyst suffering from a lack of stability in the batch process.

Pirmoradi, Maryam; Janulaitis, Nida; Gulotty, Robert J.; Kastner, James R. published the artcile< Continuous Hydrogenation of Aqueous Furfural Using a Metal-Supported Activated Carbon Monolith>, Formula: C5H10O2, the main research area is continuous hydrogenation aqueous furfural palladium activated carbon.

Continuous hydrogenation of aqueous furfural (4.5%) was studied using a monolith form (ACM) of an activated carbon Pd catalyst (~1.2% Pd). A sequential reaction pathway was observed, with ACM achieving high selectivity and space time yields (STYs) for furfuryl alc. (~25%, 60-70 g/L-cat/h, 7-15 1/h liquid hourly space velocity, LHSV), 2-methylfuran (~25%, 45-50 g/L-cat/h, 7-15 1/h LHSV), and tetrahydrofurfuryl alc. (~20-60%, 10-50 g/L-cat/h, <7 1/h LHSV). ACM showed a low loss of activity and metal leaching over the course of the reactions and was not limited by H2 external mass transfer resistance. Acetic acid (1%) did not significantly affect furfural conversion and product yields using ACM, suggesting Pd/ACM's potential for conversion of crude furfural. Limited metal leaching combined with high metal dispersion and H2 mass transfer rates in the composite carbon catalyst (ACM) provides possible advantages over granular and powd. forms in continuous processing.

The toxic heavy metals produced by the discharge of industrial wastewater pose a serious threat to the ecol. environment and human health. Nanofiltration (NF) membrane separation technol. is widely used in fields such as water softening, heavy metal removal and dye separation due to its environmental friendliness and low cost. Herein, a novel pos. charged aliphatic polyamide NF membrane (PEI-BTC) has been developed by using 1,2,3,4-cyclobutane tetracarboxylic acid chloride (BTC) monomer bearing a stereoscopic structure which undergoes classic interfacial polymerization (IP) with polyethyleneimine (PEI) on the Polyether sulfone (PES) support membrane. The physicochem. properties revealed that the PEI-BTC membrane had a larger mean effective pore size (0.285 nm), a thinner separation layer (40 nm) and a stronger pos. charged membrane surface (IEP = 7.25) than the traditional PEI-TMC membrane. Compared with previously reported PEI-based and com. NF membranes, the optimized PEI-BTC membrane exhibits a higher MgCl2 (2000 ppm) rejection of 97.53% and pure water flux of 156.85 kg·m-2·h-1 at 1.0 MPa. Moreover, the prepared PEI-BTC NF membrane shows excellent toxic heavy metal (1000 ppm) removal efficiency in the order of Mn (98.78%) > Zn (98.32%) > Ni (97.74%) > Cu (95.67%) > Cd (90.49%). The results demonstrate that the prepared pos. charged aliphatic polyamide NF membrane (PEI-BTC) has a unique industrial production potential for water softening and heavy metal removal.

Abstract: Aspartate transcarbamoylase (ATC), an essential enzyme for de novo pyrimidine biosynthesis, is uniquely regulated in plants by feedback inhibition of uridine 5-monophosphate (UMP). Despite its importance in plant growth, the structure of this UMP-controlled ATC and the regulatory mechanism remain unknown. Here, we report the crystal structures of Arabidopsis ATC trimer free and bound to UMP, complexed to a transition-state analog or bearing a mutation that turns the enzyme insensitive to UMP. We found that UMP binds and blocks the ATC active site, directly competing with the binding of the substrates. We also prove that UMP recognition relies on a loop exclusively conserved in plants that is also responsible for the sequential firing of the active sites. In this work, we describe unique regulatory and catalytic properties of plant ATCs that could be exploited to modulate de novo pyrimidine synthesis and plant growth.

Selectively hydrogenating the carbonyl of furfural and opening of the furan ring is challenging but crucial for efficient conversion of furfural to pentanediols, the valuable chems. In this study, CuMgAl catalysts with highly dispersed Cu particles and tunable basic sites were synthesized with layered double hydroxides as precursors for hydrogenation of furfural to furfuryl alc. (FA) and the subsequent hydrogenolysis of FA to 1,2-pentanediol and 1,5-pentanediol. The presence of varied content of Mg in the catalyst promoted dispersion of copper oxide and exposure of metallic copper species, weakened interaction between copper oxides and the carrier, suppressed sintering of metallic copper species, and increased abundance of the basic sites, promoting the catalytic activity/selectivity/stability. Strong chem. adsorption of the furan ring in FA on basic sites of the catalyst suppressed hydrogenation of the furan ring and facilitated opening of the furan ring in FA, the rate-determining step for formation of the diols. High yields of 1,2-pentanediol and 1,5-pentanediol are achieved over the copper-based catalyst via the hydrogenolysis of furfuryl alc.

Islam, Mohammed J.; Granollers Mesa, Marta; Osatiashtiani, Amin; Manayil, Jinesh C.; Isaacs, Mark A.; Taylor, Martin J.; Tsatsos, Sotirios; Kyriakou, Georgios published the artcile< PdCu single atom alloys supported on alumina for the selective hydrogenation of furfural>, Product Details of C5H10O2, the main research area is palladium copper catalyst alumina support furfural hydrogenation.

Single-atom catalysts serve as a skilful control of precious metals on heterogenous catalysts where all active sites are accessible for catalytic reactions. Here we report the adoption of PdCu single-atom alloys supported on alumina for the selective hydrogenation of furfural. This is a special class of an atom efficient, single-site catalyst where trace concentrations of Pd atoms (0.0067 weight%) displace surface Cu sites on the host nanoparticle. Confirmed by EXAFS, the Pd atoms are entirely coordinated to Cu, with Pd-Cu bond lengths identical to that of a Cu-Cu bond. Selectively surface oxidized catalysts also confirm surface Pd atoms by EXAFS. These catalysts improve the conversion of furfural to furfuryl alc. compared to monometallic catalysts, as they have the advantages of Cu (high selectivity but poor activity) and Pd catalysts (superior activity but unselective) without the drawbacks, making them the optimal catalysts for green/atom efficient catalysis.

Tetrahydrofurfuryl alc. (THFOL), a valuable biomass-derived chem., is an important precursor for producing linear diols and biodegradable solvents. Herein, we present the one-pot cascade conversion of xylose to THFOL over an Hβ zeolite-supported RuO2-Ru (RuO2-Ru/Hβ) catalyst. To elucidate the structure-property correlation of the RuO2-Ru/Hβ catalyst and achieve a high THFOL yield via sequential isomerization, dehydration, and hydrogenation, several synthesis methods, namely incipient wetness impregnation, reductive deposition, activated reductive deposition, and post-oxidative activated reductive deposition (ARD-O) were used. The best catalytic performance was obtained over the RuO2-Ru/Hβ-ARD-O catalyst. An almost complete conversion of xylose and a high THFOL yield of 61.8% were achieved after 1 h at 180°C under an initial H2 pressure of 3.0 MPa in THF. In-depth analyses of the RuO2-Ru/Hβ-ARD-O catalyst furfural (FFA)- and CO-probed diffuse reflectance IR Fourier transform spectra indicated the formation of RuO2 at the corner and edge sites of Ru nanoparticles. The direct conversion of FFA to THFOL at interfacial RuO2-Ru sites without furfuryl alc. (FOL) readsorption hindered the contact of FOL with the acidic support, which suppressed the formation of humin and other byproducts and led to a high THFOL yield.

Seleem, Mohamed M; Desoky, Esam; Abdelwahab, Khaled; Bendary, Lotfy; Elderey, Mohamed S; Eliwa, Ahmed published the artcile< Flank-Free Modified Supine vs Prone Ultra-Mini-Percutaneous Nephrolithotomy in Treatment of Medium-Sized Renal Pelvic Stone: A Randomized Clinical Trial.>, Computed Properties of 58-97-9, the main research area is modified flank free supine position; prone position; renal pelvic stone; ultra-mini-percutaneous nephrolithotomy.

Introduction and Objectives: Percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) is the standard treatment of renal stone >2 cm. Ultra-mini-percutaneous nephrolithotomy (UMP) had emerged in the past decade as a new technique in treating renal stones <2 cm. In this study we compared between the outcome of UMP in prone position with the outcome of UMP in modified flank free supine position (FFSP). Materials and Methods: A prospective randomized study was conducted between January 2016 and April 2020, including 122 patients, divided into two matched groups. Group A included 61 patients who underwent UMP in FFSP, and Group B included 61 patients who underwent UMP in a prone position. All patients had a single renal pelvic stone 1-2 cm. Patients with a single kidney, renal anomalies, body mass index ≥40 kg/m2, history of ipsilateral renal surgery, and age <18 years were excluded. In both groups, the dilatation was done up to 13F; a holmium laser was used through a 9F ureteroscope for fragmentation. Nephrostomy tube and ureteral stent were used only when indicated. Results: In total, 122 patients were divided into two groups. The mean age was 40.09 ± 13.63 and 39.67 ± 13.80 years in both groups, respectively. The operative time was 63.64 ± 9.22 and 78.48 ± 9.55 minutes in Groups A and B, respectively (p = 0.0001). The fluoroscopy time was 3.47 ± 0.56 and 4.45 ± 0.39 minutes in Groups A and B, respectively (p = 0.0001). No significant difference was shown between both groups regarding operative and postoperative complications. Shift to mini-PCNL was needed in one patient in Group A and four patients in Group B because of impaired vision. The hospital stay was 25.36 ± 4.23 and 26.13 ± 4.76 hours in both groups, respectively. The initial stone-free rate was 95.1% and 91.8% in both groups, respectively. Conclusions: UMP in modified supine position shows comparable results with UMP in the prone position regarding stone-free rate, hospital stay, and perioperative complication, with significantly shorter operative and fluoroscopy time.

Silva, Wesley R.; Matsubara, Elaine Y.; Rosolen, Jose M.; Donate, Paulo M.; Gunnella, Roberto published the artcile< Pd catalysts supported on different hydrophilic or hydrophobic carbonaceous substrate for furfural and 5-(hydroxymethyl)furfural hydrogenation in water>, Formula: C5H10O2, the main research area is palladium catalyst carbonaceous substrate furfural hydroxymethylfurfural hydrogenation water.

We hydrogenated furfural and 5-(hydroxymethyl)furfural (HMF) in water in a reaction catalyzed by Pd nanoparticles on carbonaceous materials with different morphol. and hydrophobic degree. The different Pd catalysts were prepared by dipping the carbonaceous material into a Pd0 micro-emulsion. The catalyst support affected the catalytic hydrogenation of furfural and HMF. By using micrometric active carbon (AC) combined with cup-stacked carbon nanotubes (CSCNTs) and Pd0/2+ nanoparticles (Pd), we obtained a micro/nanostructured material designated Pd/CSCNT-AC, which performed better than the other carbonaceous materials containing similar Pd nanoparticle loading. Pd/CSCNT-AC produced tetrahydrofurfuryl alc. from furfural with excellent selectivity (>99%). Unlike Pd on hybrophobic spheroid graphite or hydrophilic AC, Pd/CSCNT-AC hydrogenated both the C=O and C=C double bonds of furfural and catalyzed HMF hydrogenation at the C=O double bond more selectively: between 85% and 99% selectivity toward 2,5-dihydroxymethylfuran. We also investigated how temperature, hydrogen pressure, and reaction time affected HMF hydrogenation in water. Finally, Pd/CSCNT-AC was recycled several times without significant catalytic activity loss.
