RESUMO
The construction of an all-in-one catalyst, in which the photosensitizer and the transition metal site are close to each other, is important for improving the efficiency of metallaphotoredox catalysis. However, the development of convenient synthetic strategies for the precise construction of an all-in-one catalyst remains a challenging task due to the requirement of precise installation of the catalytic sites. Herein, we have successfully established a facile bottom-up strategy for the direct synthesis of Ni(II)-incorporated covalent organic framework (COF), named LZU-713@Ni, as a versatile all-in-one metallaphotoredox catalyst. LZU-713@Ni showed excellent activity and recyclability in the photoredox/nickel-catalyzed C-O, C-S, and C-P cross-coupling reactions. Notably, this catalyst displayed a better catalytic activity than its homogeneous analogues, physically mixed dual catalyst system, and, especially, LZU-713/Ni which was prepared through post-synthetic modification. The improved catalytic efficiency of LZU-713@Ni should be attributed to the implementation of bottom-up strategy, which incorporated the fixed, ordered, and abundant catalytic sites into its framework. This work sheds new light on the exploration of concise and effective strategies for the construction of multifunctional COF-based photocatalysts.
RESUMO
N6-methyladenosine (m6A) methylation is the most prevalent internal modification of post-transcriptional modifications in mRNA, tRNA, miRNA, and long non-coding RNA in eukaryotes. m6A methylation has been proven to be involved in plant resistance to pathogens. However, there are no reports on wheat (Triticum aestivum) m6A transcriptome-wide map and its potential biological function in wheat resistance to wheat yellow mosaic virus (WYMV). To the best of our knowledge, this study is the first to determine the transcriptome-wide m6A profile of two wheat varieties with different resistances to WYMV. By analyzing m6A-sequencing (m6A-seq) data, we identified 25,752 common m6A peaks and 30,582 common m6A genes in two groups [WYMV-infected resistant wheat variety (WRV) and WYMV-infected sensitive wheat variety (WSV)], and all these peaks were mainly enriched in 3' untranslated regions and stop codons of coding sequences. Gene Ontology analysis of m6A-seq and RNA-sequencing data revealed that genes that showed significant changes in both m6A and mRNA levels were associated with plant defense responses. Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes analysis revealed that these selected genes were enriched in the plant-pathogen interaction pathway. We further verified these changes in m6A and mRNA levels through gene-specific m6A real-time quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR) and normal RT-qPCR. This study highlights the role of m6A methylation in wheat resistance to WYMV, providing a solid basis for the potential functional role of m6A RNA methylation in wheat resistance to infection by RNA viruses.
RESUMO
OBJECTIVE: To observe clinical therapeutic effect of reinforcing method of acupuncture on Bell's palsy at restoration stage. METHODS: One hundred and sixty cases were randomly divided into two groups: an observation group and a control group, 80 cases in each group. The observation group were treated by acupuncture with lifting-thrusting-twirling reinforcing method, and the control group by acupuncture without needling manipulation. The therapeutic effect, and changes of palsy index, degree of palsy and ENoG were observed. RESULTS: Reinforcing method of acupuncture could significantly improve palsy index, degree of palsy and maximal wave amplitude of ENoG; the cured and markedly effective rate was 91.3% in the observation group and 75.0% in the control group with a very significant difference between the two groups (P < 0.01). CONCLUSION: The reinforcing method of acupuncture can increase the therapeutic effect on Bell's palsy at restoration stage.
