Abstract:
The novel iron-substituted Krebs-type polyoxotungstate (C12N4H11)4Na2H5[(Fe(H2O)3)2((FeO2)0.5(WO2)0.5)2(β-SbW9O33)2] (Fe-1) has been synthesized using ortho-phenylenediamine (opda) as a precursor for the in situ formation of the counter cation 2,3-diaminophenazinium (C12N4H11)+ (2,3-DAP). Fe-1 has been thoroughly characterized in the solid state by single-crystal X-ray diffraction (SXRD), powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD), IR spectroscopy, and elemental analysis as well as in solution by UV-Vis spectroscopy. The crystal structure of Fe-1 reveals π-π-interactions between the aromatic systems of the unconventional 2,3-DAP counter cation. POM-protein interaction studies using SDS-PAGE revealed a non-proteolytic behavior of Fe-1 towards Human Serum Albumin (HSA) as a model protein.

Types of RNA
Three main types of RNA are involved in protein synthesis: messenger RNA (mRNA), transfer RNA (tRNA), and ribosomal RNA (rRNA). These RNAs perform diverse functions and can be broadly classified as protein-coding or non-coding RNA. Non-coding RNAs play important roles in the regulation of gene expression in response to developmental and environmental changes. Non-coding RNAs in prokaryotes can be manipulated to develop more effective antibacterial drugs for human or animal use.
