Protein phosphorylation is a crucial component in physiological signal transduction pathways. It is estimated that one-third of all cellular proteins are modified through phosphorylation, and these pathways are regulated by kinase and phosphatase enzymes. Glucose-6-phosphatase (G6Pase) is an...

Sialidase enzymes play an important role in regulation of cellular activities by hydrolyzing the terminal, non-reducing sialic acids attached to various glycolipids, glycoproteins, and gangliosides. The family of human sialidase enzymes, NEU1, NEU2, NEU3, and NEU4 contribute specifically to...

Design and Synthesis of New Functionalized Boronic Acids for Direct Dehydrative Amidation of Poorly Nucleophilic Amines
DownloadFall 2022
Amide synthesis has been of great interest to chemists as the amide moiety occrus widely in agrochemicals, pharmaceutical agents, and biologically active molecules. Traditionally, amide bond formation requires the use of activated carboxylic acid derivatives or stochiometric amounts of coupling...

Design, Development and Mechanistic Study of Ruthenium-Based Catalysts for the Hydrogenation of Imides and Amides
DownloadSpring 2014
Prior mechanistic studies demonstrate that trans-[RuH2((R)-BINAP)((R,R)-dpen)] is a remarkably active carbonyl reducing agent at low-temperatures in THF-d8. This dissertation describes the monohydrogenation of cyclic meso-imides using this catalyst and related complexes under mild conditions....
