  • Publication number: 20240132530
    Abstract: Broadly applicable and stereoselective formation of glycosidic linkage remains challenging yet of critical importance in giycoscience. By developing an SN2 glycosylation, this work advances a general solution to this challenge via stereoinversion at the anomeric position of glycosyl ester donors. This SN2 process is enabled by a basic directing-group in the leaving-group, which is activated by a cationic gold catalyst or any other electrophilic reagent. Unlike all the reported directing group approaches, this strategy is applicable to any glycosyl donors—a long sought-after yet unmet goal in carbohydrate chemistry; moreover, the basic directing-group upon glycosylation is lost as part of the leaving-group and hence traceless in the glycoside products, therefore avoiding potential complications in downstream transformations. Highly selective construction of glycosidic bonds including challenging 1,2-cis glycosidic bonds is achieved in excellent yields.

  • Publication number: 20240132559
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to compositions and methods for reducing expression of MYC gene in a cell. In some embodiments, an expression repressor comprises a targeting moiety that binds a MYC promoter, anchor sequence, or super-enhancer. In some embodiments, the expression repressor comprises an effector moiety that represses transcription or methylates DNA. Systems comprising two expression repressors are also disclosed. The compositions can be used, for example, to treat cancers such as HCC or NSCLC.
