LONG- AND SHORT-CHAIN PLANT-PRODUCED BACTERIAL N-ACYL-HOMOSERINE LACTONES BECOME COMPONENTS OF PHYLLOSPHERE, RHIZOSPHERE, AND SOIL

Long- and Short-Chain Plant-Produced Bacterial N-Acyl-Homoserine Lactones Become Components of Phyllosphere, Rhizosphere, and Soil

Two N-acyl-homoserine lactone (acyl-HSL) synthase genes, lasI from Pseudomonas aeruginosa and yenI from Yersinia enterocolitica, were introduced into tobacco, individually and in combination.Liquid chromatograph-tandem mass spectrometry and thin-layer chromatography confirmed products of lasI and yenI activity in single and cotransformants.Cotransf

Synthesis and Self-Assembly of Chiral Cylindrical Molecular Complexes: Functional Heterogeneous Liquid-Solid Materials Formed by Helicene Oligomers

Chiral cylindrical molecular complexes of homo- and hetero-double-helices derived from helicene oligomers self-assemble in solution, providing functional heterogeneous liquid-solid materials.Gels and liotropic liquid crystals are formed by fibril self-assembly in solution; molecular monolayers and fibril films are formed by Incense Sticks self-asse
