LiNa(5)Mo(9)O(30).

ABSTRACT: The tite compound, lithium penta-sodium nona-molybdate, LiNa(5)Mo(9)O(30), was synthesized by solid-state reaction. The three-dimensional [Mo(9)O(30)](6-) framework is built up from MoO(6) octa-hedra and MoO(5) bipyramids, linked together by edges and corners. The framework delimits two types of inter-secting tunnels running along [100] and [010] in which the Na(+) and Li(+) ions are located. The asymmetric unit contains one Mo, one Na and one Li site located on a twofold rotation axis. The crystal studied was a racemic twin with site a twin ratio of 0.51 (10):0.49 (10). Relationships between the structures of K(2)Mo(3)O(10), K(2)Mo(4)O(13), Cs(2)Mo(7)O(22), Na(6)Mo(10)O(33) and Na(6)Mo(11)O(36) compounds are discussed.

Effect of Fluoridated Sealants on Adjacent Tooth Surfaces: A 30-mo Randomized Clinical Trial.

Project description:A double-blind randomized clinical trial was performed in 6- to 7-yr-old schoolchildren to evaluate, in a 30-mo period, whether the caries increment on the distal surface of the second primary molars adjacent to permanent first molars sealed with fluoride release compounds would be lower with respect to those adjacent to permanent first molars sealed with a nonfluoridated sealant. In sum, 2,776 subjects were enrolled and randomly divided into 3 groups receiving sealants on sound first molars: high-viscosity glass ionomer cement (GIC group); resin-based sealant with fluoride (fluoride-RB group); and a resin-based sealant without fluoride (RB group). Caries (D1 - D3 level) was recorded on the distal surface of the second primary molar, considered the unit of analysis including only sound surfaces at the baseline. At baseline, no differences in caries prevalence were recorded in the 3 groups regarding the considered surfaces. At follow-up, the prevalence of an affected unit of analysis was statistically lower (p = .03) in the GIC and fluoride-RB groups (p = .04). In the GIC group, fewer new caries were observed in the unit of analysis respect to the other 2 groups. Incidence rate ratios (IRRs) were 0.70 (95% confidence interval: 0.50, 0.86; p < .01) for GIC vs. RB and 0.79 (95% confidence interval: 0.67, 0.89; p = .005) for fluoride-RB vs. RB [Corrected]. Caries incidence was significantly associated with low socioeconomic status (IRR = 1.18; 95% confidence interval: 1.10, 1.42; p = .05). Dental sealant high-viscosity GIC and fluoride-RB demonstrated protection against dental caries, and there was evidence that these materials afforded additional protection for the tooth nearest to the sealed tooth (clinical trial registration NCT01588210).

Novel LinA type 3 δ-hexachlorocyclohexane dehydrochlorinase.

Project description:LinA is the first enzyme of the microbial degradation pathway of a chlorinated insecticide, hexachlorocyclohexane (HCH), and mediates the dehydrochlorination of α-, γ-, and δ-HCH. Its two variants, LinA type 1 and LinA type 2, which differ at 10 out of 156 amino acid residues, have been described. Their activities for the metabolism of different HCH isomers differ considerably but overall are high for γ-HCH, moderate for α-HCH, low for δ-HCH, and lacking for β-HCH. Here, we describe the characterization of a new variant of this enzyme, LinA type 3, whose gene was identified from the metagenome of an HCH-contaminated soil sample. Its deduced primary structure in the region spanning amino acid residues 1 to 147 of the protein exhibits 17 and 12 differences from LinA type 1 and LinA type 2, respectively. In addition, the residues GIHFAPS, present at the region spanning residues 148 to 154 in both LinA type 1 and LinA type 2, are deleted in LinA type 3.The activity of LinA type 3 for the metabolism of δ-HCH is several orders of magnitude higher than that of LinA type 1 or LinA type 2 and can be useful for improvement of the metabolism of δ-HCH.

A nanoscopic icosahedral {Mo<sub>72</sub>Fe<sub>30</sub>} cluster catalyzes the aerobic synthesis of benzimidazoles.

Project description:In this study, the catalytic efficiency of amorphous {Mo72Fe30} nanocapsules as a safe Keplerate polyoxometalate in organic synthesis was exploited. The easy-made solid catalyst exhibited high efficiency using a very low dosage (0.02-0.05 mol%) in the catalyzed condensation of various aromatic 1,2-diamines and aldehydes for the aerobic synthesis of benzimidazoles with very small E-factor values (0.11-0.33). The superior catalytic activity of amorphous nanoclusters compared to that of its crystalline counterpart was demonstrated. The high activity and recyclability of heterogeneous catalysts in a green reaction media under oxygen atmosphere, make this environmentally benign organic process appropriate for our applied goals.

In Situ Mo(Si,Al)2-Based Composite through Selective Laser Melting of a MoSi2-30 wt.% AlSi10Mg Mixture.

Project description:The laser power bed fusion approach has been successfully employed to manufacture Mo(Si,Al)2-based composites through the selective laser melting of a MoSi2-30 wt.% AlSi10Mg mixture for high-temperature structural applications. Composites were manufactured by leveraging the in situ reaction of the components during printing at 150-300 W laser power, 500-1000 mm·s-1 laser scanning speed, and 100-134 J·mm-3 volumetric energy density. Microcomputed tomography scans indicated a negligible induced porosity throughout the specimens. The fully dense Mo(Si1-x,Alx)2-based composites, with hardness exceeding 545 HV1 and low roughness for both the top (horizontal) and side (vertical) surfaces, demonstrated that laser-based additive manufacturing can be exploited to create unique structures containing hexagonal Mo(Si0.67Al0.33)2.

Transgenic Arabidopsis thaliana plants expressing bacterial γ-hexachlorocyclohexane dehydrochlorinase LinA.

Project description:Backgroundγ-Hexachlorocyclohexane (γ-HCH), an organochlorine insecticide of anthropogenic origin, is a persistent organic pollutant (POP) that causes environmental pollution concerns worldwide. Although many γ-HCH-degrading bacterial strains are available, inoculating them directly into γ-HCH-contaminated soil is ineffective because of the low survival rate of the exogenous bacteria. Another strategy for the bioremediation of γ-HCH involves the use of transgenic plants expressing bacterial enzyme for γ-HCH degradation through phytoremediation.ResultsWe generated transgenic Arabidopsis thaliana expressing γ-HCH dehydrochlroninase LinA from bacterium Sphingobium japonicum strain UT26. Among the transgenic Arabidopsis T2 lines, we obtained one line (A5) that expressed and accumulated LinA well. The A5-derived T3 plants showed higher tolerance to γ-HCH than the non-transformant control plants, indicating that γ-HCH is toxic for Arabidopsis thaliana and that this effect is relieved by LinA expression. The crude extract of the A5 plants showed γ-HCH degradation activity, and metabolites of γ-HCH produced by the LinA reaction were detected in the assay solution, indicating that the A5 plants accumulated the active LinA protein. In some A5 lines, the whole plant absorbed and degraded more than 99% of γ-HCH (10 ppm) in the liquid medium within 36 h.ConclusionThe transgenic Arabidopsis expressing active LinA absorbed and degraded γ-HCH in the liquid medium, indicating the high potential of LinA-expressing transgenic plants for the phytoremediation of environmental γ-HCH. This study marks a crucial step toward the practical use of transgenic plants for the phytoremediation of POPs.

Seeking the Source of Catalytic Efficiency of Lindane Dehydrochlorinase, LinA.

Project description:Herein we present the results of an in-depth simulation study of LinA and its two variants. In our analysis, we combined the exploration of protein conformational dynamics with and without bound substrates (hexachlorocyclohexane (HCH) isomers) performed using molecular dynamics simulation followed by the extraction of the most frequently visited conformations and their characteristics with a detailed description of the interactions taking place in the active site between the respective HCH molecule and the first shell residues by using symmetry-adapted perturbation theory (SAPT) calculations. A detailed investigation of the conformational space of LinA substates has been accompanied by description of enzymatic catalytic steps carried out using a hybrid quantum mechanics/molecular mechanics (QM/MM) potential along with the computation of the potential of mean force (PMF) to estimate the free energy barriers for the studied transformations: dehydrochlorination of γ-, (-)-α-, and (+)-α-HCH by LinA-type I and -type II variants. The applied combination of computational techniques allowed us not only to characterize two LinA types but also to point to the most important differences between them and link their features to catalytic efficiency each of them possesses toward the respective ligand. More importantly it has been demonstrated that type I protein is more mobile, its active site has a larger volume, and the dehydrochlorination products are stabilized more strongly than in the case of type II enzyme, due to differences in the residues present in the active sites. Additionally, interaction energy calculations revealed very interesting patterns not predicted before but having the potential to be utilized in any attempts of improving LinA catalytic efficiency. On the basis of all these observations, LinA-type I protein seems to be more preorganized for the dehydrochlorination reaction it catalyzes than the type II variant.

Isolation of a novel thermostable dehydrochlorinase (LinA) from a soil metagenome.

Project description:Hexachlorocyclohexane dehydrochlorinase (LinA) mediates first step of aerobic degradation of a chlorinated insecticide γ-hexachlorocyclohexane (γ-HCH). In this study, we describe characterization of a novel variant (LinA-type2) that is distinct from reported LinAs and is substantially more thermostable than archetypal LinA-UT26. LinA-type2 remains active even after 8 h of incubation at 45 °C, when nearly 50% activity of LinA-UT26 is lost after incubation for 60 min at the same temperature. Circular dichroism analysis revealed that secondary structures of LinA-UT26 and LinA-type2 are similar, but their Tm was 45 and 65 °C, respectively. Thermostability of LinA-type2 makes it suitable for bioreactors where allowance for higher temperatures can be of advantage.

Bioactive sphingolipids: Advancements and contributions from the laboratory of Dr. Lina M. Obeid.

Project description:Sphingolipids and their synthetic enzymes have emerged as critical mediators in numerous diseases including inflammation, aging, and cancer. One enzyme in particular, sphingosine kinase (SK) and its product sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P), has been extensively implicated in these processes. SK catalyzes the phosphorylation of sphingosine to S1P and exists as two isoforms, SK1 and SK2. In this review, we will discuss the contributions from the laboratory of Dr. Lina M. Obeid that have defined the roles for several bioactive sphingolipids in signaling and disease with an emphasis on her work defining SK1 in cellular fates and pathobiologies including proliferation, senescence, apoptosis, and inflammation.
