Owing to their advantageous features, such as signal amplification, isothermal nonenzymatic operation, and diverse reaction outputs and designs, the templated reactions have considerable potential for designing next-generation nucleic acid sensors with high sensitivity, selectivity, rapidity, and user-friendliness. Thus, over the past two decades, numerous templated reactions have been developed for more efficient nucleic acid detection. This review highlights recent advances in nucleic acid-templated reactions since 2020, focusing on the newly developed reactions and strategies for designing highly sensitive, selective, and accurate nucleic acid sensing systems. We also summarize templated reaction research since 2015 and explore how integrating these reactions with other signal amplification systems and readout methods has led to the development of practical nucleic acid sensors with improved properties.

Reviews on photoredox catalysis have so far focused predominantly on the synthetic applications. This review highlights how organic photoredox catalysts were developed and how they function as efficient photocatalysts in mechanistic point of views. In particular, 9-mesityl-10-methylactidinium (Acr⁺–Mes) has been highlighted as one of the best organic photoredox catalysts. Acr⁺–Mes was originally developed as a model compound of the photosynthetic reaction center to mimic the long lifetime of the charge-separated state in which the energy is converted to chemical energy in photosynthesis. The reason why Acr⁺–Mes acts as one of the most efficient photoredox catalyst is clarified in terms of the one-electron redox potentials and long lifetimes of the electron-transfer state (Acr^•–Mes^•+) produced upon photoexcitation of Acr⁺–Mes in different solvents. The reason why the mesityl substituent at the 9-position of the Acr⁺ moiety is essential for the efficient photoredox catalysis is discussed in comparison with acridinium ions with different substituents R (Acr⁺–R) including 10-methylacridinium ion with no substituent (AcrH⁺). The mechanisms of photoredox catalysis of Acr⁺–Mes are discussed in various synthetic transformations and solar energy conversion reactions mimicking photosynthesis. Photoredox catalysis of quinolinium ion and its derivatives is also discussed in comparison with that of Acr⁺–Mes.

These proteins often contain multiple ZF domains, enabling interactions with target molecules that regulate transcription and translation. The Cys₂His₂ (C₂H₂) type ZF domains, found in the brain, are associated with long- and short-term memory, neuronal differentiation and development, and other physiological processes. The classical C-X₂-C-X₁₂-H-X₃-H type ZF domains have been detected in studies of Parkinson's disease (PD) and are closely linked to biological pathways involved in a wide range of neurodegenerative diseases. In this review, we introduce three ZF proteins expressed in the brain: Parkin-interacting substrate (PARIS), zinc finger and BTB domain-containing 20 (ZBTB20), and zinc finger protein 18 (ZNF18). We explore the structural and functional roles of these ZF proteins in the brain. Each of these proteins contains more than four ZF domains, as well as functional domains such as KRAB, BTB, and SCAN, which perform modular roles independently of the ZF domains. Biophysical studies of PARIS have demonstrated that its classical three-ZF domain, PARIS(ZF2–4), forms hydrogen bonds with insulin response sequences (IRSs) with high specificity (<i>K</i>_d = 38.9 ± 2.4 nM). Metal coordination studies showed that PARIS binds Co²⁺ with high affinity (<i>K</i>_d = 49.1 ± 7.7 nM), more strongly than other ZF domains, and it also coordinates with other xenobiotic metal ions such as Fe²⁺ and Ni²⁺. Although Zn²⁺–PARIS(ZF2–4) binds specifically to IRSs, Fe²⁺–, Fe³⁺– or Co²⁺–PARIS(ZF2–4) cannot, due to distortions in the ZF domain structure that disrupt hydrogen bonding. These brain-specific ZF domains exhibit common patterns, with similar numbers of ZF domains and sequence homology at the <i>C</i>-terminus, whereas both the ZF domains and <i>N</i>-terminal protein–protein interaction domains contribute to their functional versatility. Elucidating the structure and function of these classical ZF proteins offers promising avenues for the treatment of diverse brain disorders, including Alzheimer's disease, PD, and autism spectrum disorder.</p>","PeriodicalId":54252,"journal":{"name":"Bulletin of the Korean Chemical Society","volume":"45 12","pages":"977-986"},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2024-11-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142862133","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
