Abstract:

Most disease associated genomic variants have relatively modest effects on target gene expression in reporter or CRISPR perturbation assays. In addition, enhancer disruption in vivo often has surprisingly weak phenotypic consequences. I will present machine learning (ML) methods (gkm-SVM and DNN) which we use to learn the complex transcription factor combinations that control enhancer activity and cell fate. I will then use these methods to develop a quantitative model for enhancer activity which shows that while promoter knockdown has robust effects on target gene expression, individual enhancer knockdown is often weaker and affects temporal transition dynamics, but not the final steady state. This model provides an explanation of the paradox of how enhancer variation can be strongly associated with disease risk while having individually weak effects, by showing in detail how gene regulatory networks control developmentally important and disease relevant cell state transitions and cancer.

Cydney K. Seigerman is a Ph.D. candidate in the Integrative Conservation & Anthropology program at the University of Georgia, where they work with Dr. Don Nelson and are a member of the Human Environmental Change Lab (HECL). Cydney is an NSF Graduate Research Fellow and a research scholar at the Cearense Meteorological and Water Resources Foundation (Funceme) in Ceará, Brazil.

Cydney's research incorporates methods from the critical social sciences, natural sciences, and theatre/performance studies to explore human-technology-environment relations. Their dissertation work explores how socionatural (i.e., interrelated sociopolitical, environmental, and technological) processes shape and are shaped by the lived experience of water insecurity in Ceará, northeast Brazil.

Before pursuing their Ph.D., Cydney studied chemistry and Spanish language and literature at the University of Michigan, graduating from the Residential College and Honors College. They then relocated to Madrid, Spain, where they served as a Fulbright English Teaching Assistant, studied acting at the theater school La Lavandería, and ran competitively.

Synthetic Cluster Models of Inorganic and Organometallic Active Sites in Proteins (February 14, 2023 4:00pm) https://events.umich.edu/event/104359 104359-21808862@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Tuesday, February 14, 2023 4:00pm
Location: Chemistry Dow Lab
Organized By: Department of Chemistry

Complex inorganic active sites perform challenging catalytic transformations in biological systems, such as water oxidation by Photosystem II and nitrogen reduction in Nitrogenase. The effect of cluster structure on the physical and chemical properties of these active sites is not well understood. We have developed methodologies for the rational synthesis of tetranuclear homo- and hetero-metallic cluster models of protein active sites, which allow for systematic structure-property studies. Distal redox changes have been demonstrated to have a substantial effect on the reactivity and binding of ligands relevant to small molecule conversions. Upon incorporation of second coordination sphere hydrogen bonding interactions, water oxidation catalysis was observed. Spectroscopic studies of models with structures or redox states relevant to the protein active site provide benchmarking for the biological system. Implications for function and spectroscopy will be discussed.

Probing and Controlling the Dynamics of Photochromic Molecules (February 16, 2023 4:00pm) https://events.umich.edu/event/97041 97041-21793743@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Thursday, February 16, 2023 4:00pm

Photochromic molecular switches are compounds that change color upon optical excitation. The color change is a response to the making, breaking, and rearranging of bonds in the molecule. We use ultrafast spectroscopy to probe changes in the molecular structure and to reveal new information about the fundamental reaction dynamics of molecules in solution. In particular, we examine the dynamics of molecules in highly excited electronic states (above S1). We use both transient absorption and resonance Raman measurements to monitor the dynamics of molecules that are excited using a pair of time-delayed laser pulses. Beyond simply watching the reaction unfold, sequential excitation with two independent photons allows us to control the dynamics of the molecule and influence the outcome of the reaction. For example, selectively varying the relative time delay and wavelength for secondary excitation allows the molecule to sample different reaction channels. These experiments probe the potential energy surfaces that determine the motions of the atoms and provide unique insight on the dynamics of molecules in highly excited electronic states, an important frontier in chemical reaction dynamics.

Light-driven Fuel Production mediated by Molecular Catalysts (February 21, 2023 4:00pm) https://events.umich.edu/event/96643 96643-21792971@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Tuesday, February 21, 2023 4:00pm

Using solar photons to drive energy intensive reactions that take energy poor feedstocks like water and carbon dioxide into energy rich fuels represents an opportunity to capture and store diffuse solar energy. Molecular catalysts can selectively mediate the multi-electron, multi-proton transformations that convert water and carbon dioxide into energy rich fuels but practical technologies that integrate these complexes with light absorbers have yet to be realized. To address the challenges limiting the development of solar fuel technologies, my research lab is learning (1) how to exploit energy-efficient proton-coupled electron transfer (PCET) processes for fuel production schemes and (2) how to integrate fuel-producing catalysts with photon capturing materials. Through this work, new approaches to efficiently convert solar photons into chemical energy are being developed. \r\n \r\n

The multi-dimensionality of microplastics – and how it affects their fate and effects in aquatic ecosystems (February 28, 2023 4:00pm) https://events.umich.edu/event/95919 95919-21791435@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Tuesday, February 28, 2023 4:00pm

Microplastic particles are unique from other contaminants in that they are a physical particle composed of a complex mixture of different chemicals (e.g., monomers, additives). In the environment, they are found in diverse shapes and sizes. These multidimensional characteristics affect their fate in the environment, and thus exposure in biota. Moreover, their different characteristics likely affect their impact on ecosystems. This presentation will share results from an in-lake mesocosm experiment conducted at the International Institute for Sustainable Development’s Experimental Lakes Area (IISD-ELA) to discuss the fate of microplastics in aquatic ecosystems. Different concentrations of a mixture of polyethylene, polystyrene and polyethylene terephthalate were added to nine 10-m diameter x 2-m deep limnocorrals as part of a ten-week experiment to measure the fate and effects of microplastics. The fate of the microplastics influences exposure in biota – relevant to risk. In addition to discussing the work at IISD-ELA, this presentation will share results from meta-analyses, and field and lab experiments to discuss the fate of microplastics in food webs and the physical and chemical effects of different types of microplastics across multiple levels of biological organization. Over the last two decades, the field has matured and we are beginning to understand the contamination, fate and effects of microplastics. Still, there is a lot to learn about how their diverse characteristics affect their fate and interactions in ecosystems. \r\n

Biomolecular analyses (proteins, stable isotopes, lipids, and DNA) have been integral in identifying the economic roles of domesticated animals in archaeological contexts. While analyses such as lipids, isotopes, and DNA are well-established, recently developed protein analysis offers new insights. The combination of species- and tissue-specific information provided by amino acid sequences have been critical in clarifying which animals, or animal products, were consumed by archaeological populations. While protein analysis offers new lines of evidence, working with ancient materials requires specific laboratory and data analysis protocols in order to authenticate the age and reliability of the results. Recently, this this method has been used to illuminate the spread of milk use on the Bronze Age Eurasian steppe and beyond. Through recently produced protein data, we can see that use of ruminant milk enabled long-distance Yamnaya migrations across arid steppic environments, and specifically, how milking practices traveled in tandem with expanding populations from the western Pontic-Caspian region to the far Eastern Steppe of Mongolia.

Enhanced Vibrational Spectroscopy – The Surface is Everything (March 9, 2023 4:00pm) https://events.umich.edu/event/97042 97042-21793744@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Thursday, March 9, 2023 4:00pm

Surface-sensitive vibrational spectroscopic techniques rely on molecular interactions with relevant interfaces. For instance, surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) requires that molecules interact with the metal surface at short distances of 2 nm or less without disrupting the surface atoms. In this presentation, anisotropic nanostructures such as gold nanostars will be used in conjunction with SERS to detect trace molecules. Two challenges and approaches to better predict structure-function behavior of noble metal nanoparticles will be discussed. A combination of experimental measurements that provide molecular-level insight coupled with semi-empirical modeling will be shown to improve the systematic use of gold nanostars by providing a method for predicting the stability and hence, the fate of nanomaterials in various environmental conditions. After these considerations, localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) spectroscopy and SERS will be exploited for the direct, qualitative and quantitative detection of small biologically relevant molecules. In the future, these results could be expanded for different nanomaterial shapes, compositions, and molecular targets.

Unconventional Site Selectivity in Cross-Couplings of Dihaloheteroarenes (March 14, 2023 11:30am) https://events.umich.edu/event/95717 95717-21790782@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Tuesday, March 14, 2023 11:30am

Heteroarenes are ubiquitous motifs in high-value small molecules including pharmaceutical drugs and agrichemicals. Elaboration of halogenated heteroaromatic cores can be achieved through cross-coupling reactions, which are among the most widely used methods in organic synthesis. However, when two or more halides are present on the substrate, controlling site selectivity becomes critical. In fact, cross-couplings often follow a predictable selectivity pattern. For many dihalogenated heteroarenes, methods do not exist to reliably invert the conventional pattern to achieve cross-coupling at the \"less reactive\" C—X bond. Herein we describe new catalyst-controlled strategies to accomplish this goal, together with mechanistic studies to explain the origin of the selectivity inversion.

Using X-ray spectroscopy to understand the role of non-innocent ligands in molecular catalysts (March 17, 2023 12:00pm) https://events.umich.edu/event/105213 105213-21811383@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Friday, March 17, 2023 12:00pm

Molecular catalysts based on first row transition metals often employ redox-active or non-innocent ligands to support multi-electron transfer reactions. It can be challenging in these systems to disentangle the roles of ligand-based and metal-based reactive sites in accumulating charge or in bonding with substrates. Reaction mechanisms for these catalysts are therefore often based on computational predictions, with little experimental evidence. X-ray spectroscopy, which probes atomic core level transitions, is a well-suited technique to address these questions. The atomic specificity inherent to x-ray spectroscopy allows one to differentiate metal- or ligand-based reaction sites, the spectra are highly sensitive to both charge distribution and bonding at the specific atomic site, and x-ray measurements can often be conducted in situ or in the time-domain such that isolation of catalyst
species or transient intermediates is not required. My group uses x-ray spectroscopy to investigate the reaction mechanisms of first row transition metal electro- and photo-catalysts containing non-innocent ligands. In particular, we have focused on hydrogen evolving Ni complexes that employ Ni-S coordination. In this seminar, I will describe the progress we’ve made in three areas: (1) New mechanistic insight into the proton reduction reactions of Ni complexes containing pyridinethiolate ligands based on in situ x-ray absorption investigations. (2) How the metal-ligand covalency of Ni catalysts with dithiolene-like ligands can be quantified with x-ray absorption spectroscopy and how it influences reaction mechanism. (3) Finally, how metal-ligand covalency influences the excited state electronic structure and photochemistry of these catalysts.

New Strategies for Carbonyl-Olefin Metathesis (March 20, 2023 4:00pm) https://events.umich.edu/event/97085 97085-21793864@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Monday, March 20, 2023 4:00pm

FeCl3 has been identified as an earth abundant, environmentally friendly Lewis acid catalyst for ring-closing carbonyl-olefin metathesis. Lewis acid activation is used to promote the formation and fragmentation of oxetane intermediates, avoiding catalytically inactive metal-oxo species and allowing for catalytic turnover. Subsequent efforts led to the discovery of interrupted carbonyl-olefin metathesis as a divergent reaction pathway that operates via oxygen atom transfer. TfOH catalyzes the formation of uniquely substituted fluorene scaffolds from readily accessible substrates. Unlike the inert metal-oxo byproducts of previously reported approaches for carbonyl-olefin metathesis, a new ruthenium alkylidene-mediated hydrazone/oxime-olefin metathesis is developed that forms a highly reactive Ru nitride as the metal byproduct. The high reactivity of this species could be exploited to regenerate a Ru alkylidene, potentially permitting Ru-catalyzed hydrazine/oxime-olefin metathesis as a new approach for catalytic carbonyl-olefin metathesis. \r\n \r\n

Cystic fibrosis is a debilitating genetic disease resulting from mutations in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR), an anion channel that modulates epithelial hydration of the lungs and other organs. Treatment of this disease relies on the use of combinations of potentiator drugs which restore function to inactivated receptors and small molecule correctors that stabilize defective proteins to enable normal trafficking and prevent degradation. We have investigated a series of trisubstituted cyclopropanes that show promise as CFTR correctors. Rhodium-catalyzed reactions of donor-acceptor carbenes represent the most general approach to these stereochemically complex structures, however we encountered limitations with the existing methods when applied to heteroaryl substrates that led us to further investigate these reactions. Through a collaborative academic-industry partnership with Prof. Huw Davies lab at Emory University, we discovered surprising new conditions that enable highly enantioselective cyclopropanation reactions for a broad scope of heterocyclic substrates. The seminar will describe the discovery of a novel class of CFTR correctors and the new synthetic methods that were developed and applied to their stereoselective synthesis.

The applications of free radical intermediates in organic synthesis have expanded significantly in recent years. However, catalytic strategies that enable control of enantioselectivity in radical reactions remain rare. In this lecture, I will describe three recent projects that all make use of attractive non-covalent associations between free radicals (or radical ions) and chiral catalysts as a basis for stereocontrol. Mechanistic and computational efforts to elucidate the precise radical-molecule interactions responsible for asymmetric induction will be presented.

Reactions which can manipulate the connectivity of the molecular skeleton are
underexplored as tools for late-stage functionalization, in part because their
implementation has been hindered by their often nonintuitive retrosynthetic logic. This
presentation will cover selected transformations discovered in our laboratory which
address this challenge by enabling single-atom changes to aliphatic and aromatic
systems through the insertion and deletion of single heavy atoms (C,N,O, etc.), as well
as more complex manipulations leveraging combinations of these elementary
transformations. Our approach to this problem is modality-agnostic, drawing from a
wide range of reactive species and synthetic disciplines (organometallic chemistry,
reagent design, photochemistry). Applications to late-stage functionalization and
diversification of complex pharmaceutically relevant compounds as well as unique
opportunities for synthesis will be presented alongside mechanistic findings.

Please join us in-person for a seminar highlighting environmental research. Marc Weisskopf's research interests mostly come from his background in neurobiology. He is interested in how environmental factors affect the nervous system, as well as the epidemiology of neurologic disorders. Current areas of his work include how environmental exposures relate to:
* Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD)
* Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD)
* Mental health
* Cognitive function/Alzheimer’s disease (AD)
* Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS)
Some examples of his current work include exploring how exposure to toxicants (e.g., lead, manganese, and air pollution) affect cognitive function and psychiatric symptoms; how air pollution and other toxicants relate to autism spectrum disorder (ASD); and how toxicant exposures like formaldehyde and lead relate to the development of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). In addition, he has a large study in Israel and Denmark to explore the relationship of currently used medications to ALS. He is also very interested in issues of epidemiological methods and causal inferences as they relate to his work.

Abstract:
In 1996, Dr. Shilatifard identified the biochemical function of the Mixed Lineage Leukemia (MLL) gene translocation partner for the first time. The translocation partner, a gene called ELL, encodes an elongation factor: a protein that controls when, where and how fast the RNA Polymerase II transcription machinery can “read out” the instructions encoded in our genes. This discovery began a scientific journey to better understand elongation factors and other transcriptional control mechanisms, both in embryonic development and in cancer. Taking you along on this journey, Dr. Shilatifard will describe how he isolated all of the other MLL translocation partners in a “tour de force” application of biochemistry and molecular genetics, resulting in the astounding finding that these seemingly unrelated proteins actually function together within the (now widely known) Super Elongation Complex (SEC). In further research, the SEC emerged as a central factor regulating gene transcription at the elongation stage, and the lab has developed chemical compounds to disrupt or inhibit the Super Elongation Complex that are now in pre-clinical studies for the treatment of cancers caused by transcriptional defects. The story continues with his lab’s current research investigating how elongation factors, chromatin and the epigenome control transcription in human development and disease.

Bio:
Dr. Ali Shilatifard, Chairman and Professor of Biochemistry and Molecular Genetics and Professor of Pediatrics at Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine in Chicago, graduated from Kennesaw State University in 1989 with a degree in Chemistry with an emphasis in Organic Chemistry. While at KSU, Shilatifard slept in his car at night for a period in front of the gym and worked all over the campus from bussing tables at the student center, to cooking in the back kitchen, serving as the dispatch for the Kennesaw State College police department, and working as a TA in the Chemistry lab and Math lab to support himself and his education. He was supported by a full academic scholarship by KSU after his first year and graduated in four years. Now, Shilatifard is a renowned biochemist and cancer biologist. He made a seminal contribution to the field of leukemia biology early in his career by identifying the function of a gene translocation in childhood leukemia for the first time. In the 25 years since that discovery, he has dedicated his career to revealing the causes of childhood leukemia and other cancers and to leveraging these findings for the development of new cancer therapies. He currently runs an active research laboratory, heads a large department while he also is the Director of the Simpson Querrey Institute for Epigenetics. Shilatifard has authored over 250 scientific publications and is one of the founding members and is the current Editor of the online publication, Science Advances. He is one of the few scientists in the United States funded by the National Cancer Institute’s Outstanding Investigator Award, and in an effort to inspire young students to consider the STEM fields, he and his wife Laura started the Simpson Querrey Inspire Program.

ABSTRACT: Heme is a critical biomolecule that carries out several functions in nearly all life forms, including humans where its most widely known role is mediating oxygen transport in the blood. It is imperative that heme production is tightly controlled as alterations in cellular heme levels can have drastic consequences for human health. The first and rate-limiting enzyme controlling heme biosynthesis is aminolevulinic acid synthase (ALAS). ALAS is conserved in α- proteobacteria and non-plant eukaryotes, however, an important structural feature found exclusively in eukaryotic ALAS enzymes is the C-terminal extension. We seek to understand how ALAS interacts with accessory proteins as well as organism-specific differences in protein assembly that may alter the regulation of heme production. Therefore, we use X-ray crystallography combined with biophysical and biochemical characterization of various eukaryotic ALAS enzymes to parse apart the role of this key regulatory region in eukaryote ALAS function. Our work is beginning to reveal key structure-function relationships between the orientation and molecular contacts mediated by the C-terminus and ALAS enzyme function, thus controlling heme biosynthesis.

Synthetic chemists need ever better tools to synthesize the molecules of modern life, from life-changing pharmaceuticals to next generation materials. Further, there is increasing need for these transformations to be both step and atom efficient and sustainable, proceeding under mild conditions using earth abundant elements. Here we show how employing open shell intermediates strategically allows for challenging transformations to be achieved directly, from alkene difunctionalization to carboxylic acid deletion. Importantly, these reactions make use of earth abundant elements and proceed under mild conditions, with many being driven by light. Together, our studies demonstrate the versatility of radical reactions to achieve challenging disconnections that are sustainable and environmentally-responsible.

ABSTRACT:

Genomic rearrangements, also known as structural variations (SVs), are large scale alterations that changes the DNA structure. They include deletions, duplications, insertions, and other forms that are accompanied by copy number changes as well as inversions, translocations, and other copy-neutral forms. They are an important type of variation, affecting an order of magnitude more base pairs than single nucleotide variations (SNVs) in normal human population. In cancer, several chromosomal translocations have been identified and subsequently became targets of successful treatments. However, the functional impact of genomic rearrangements and their roles in treatment response are largely unexplored. We are developing new computational methods and exploring large scale cancer omics data to infer the mutational mechanisms leading to these alterations, to identify potential disease-driving events, and to study how they affect treatments.

Photoredox catalysis has enabled researchers to overcome previously intractable problems in organic synthesis. The use of light to drive catalysis has allowed for more selective reactions that generate both simple and complex molecules from renewable and economical starting materials under mild conditions. The dynamics of these catalysts following photoexcitation determines their efficiency. A direct time-resolved photophysical view of reactions is essential to construct the full kinetic scheme, observe the intermediates, and thereby link dynamics to structure. Through the use of ultrafast broadband transient absorption and two-dimensional electronic spectroscopy across a wide range of time and energy scales, the Huxter group studies photoinduced single-electron transfer and electronic dynamics in photoredox catalytic and radical systems. These studies have revealed complex mechanisms of photoredox catalytic reactions, including the involvement of reduced solvent as intermediates, multiple photoproducts as well as many productive and unproductive pathways. The study of transition metal complexes has also opened new possibilities for versatile reactive pathways. In this talk, we will present our latest research on a novel series of tripyrrindione molecules, which possess tunable redox-active chemistry. Using ultrafast nonlinear spectroscopy, we explore the dynamics of these molecules and how they are influenced by hydrogen-bonding interactions with the solvent, reversible antiferromagnetic coupling and by the oxidation states of the metal centers. The results of these studies will highlight the potential of tripyrrindione molecules for new redox-active chemistry, catalytic applications, and optical sensing.

The widespread use of lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) for vaccines during the pandemic has advanced them to become arguably the leading nanomedicine technology. LNPs offer a way to deliver a concentrated payload. If delivered systemically, the LNPs also protect the nucleic acids from nucleases. The rules around their preparation and mechanisms for delivery to cells and endosomal release are still in development. The seminar will describe LNP integration into a high throughput experiment to screen in vitro for immunogenic cell death interactions between microphages and target cancer cells. The development of bright, Raman-active, liposomal NP labels for flow cytometry and chitosan-based radioactive labeling experiments for in vivo non-invasive hepatocyte function assessment will also be presented.

ABSTRACT: While mechanisms of embryonic development are well conserved among mammals, the progression speed tends to be slower in larger species. To study differences in time between species, my group uses in vitro systems. We have recently recapitulated the segmentation clock, oscillatory gene expression during early development, from human and mouse pluripotent stem cells. The oscillation period of the human segmentation clock is 5-6 hours, while the mouse period is 2-3 hours. We found that this period difference between species stems from slower biochemical reactions in human cells, including slower protein degradation and longer delays in gene expression processes. Now we are extending this approach of cross-species comparison to other mammalian species, including the marmoset and rhinoceros, and other developmental processes. In parallel, we develop genetic tools to manipulate developmental processes and organoids.

The development of high-energy-density materials (HEDMs) with high performance and reasonable sensitivity to impact and friction is an overarching goal in the field of energetic materials. Two areas of interest in our HEDM research are the synthesis of high-energy melt-castable explosives to replace TNT and the synthesis of high-energy propellant plasticizers to replace inert ingredients. Meaningful properties of melt-castable explosives include a melting point range of 70-120 °C, a low vapor pressure, a significant difference between the melting temperature and the decomposition temperature, high density, low sensitivity, an affordable synthesis, and a detonation velocity and detonation pressure that significantly outperforms 2,4,6-trinitrotoluene (TNT).
A plasticizer enhances fluidity or plasticity when added to a rocket or gun propellant formulation. Energetic plasticizers are used to improve physical properties, to act as a fuel, and to improve the overall energy yield of a formulation. In designing an optimal plasticizer, understanding how chemical functional groups affect the melting point, freezing point, and decomposition temperature candidate materials becomes imperative. A successful energetic plasticizer must possess a good density, reasonable sensitivity, low chemical reactivity, and high thermal stability as one approaches oxygen-balanced materials.
Presented will be the synthesis of high-energy melt-castable and propellant plasticizer materials based on strained ring nitroazetidine polynitric ester and cyclobutane polynitric ester materials. In addition, polynitric ester compounds that maximize densities due to the incorporation of aromatic 1,2,4-oxadiazole and furoxan functionalities.

Our group’s central goal is to discover new concepts in base-promoted reactivity as a means to advance synthetic chemistry. For example, while base-promoted reactions typically accomplish redox neutral transformations, such as the addition of pronucleophiles to electrophiles, we have identified general strategies for base-promoted oxidative and reductive coupling reactions. This talk will discuss the development of these strategies in the context of two methods: the oxidative coupling of arenes with nucleophiles and the reductive defluorinative coupling of trifluoromethylarenes with electrophiles. The mechanistic frameworks of these methods will be compared to traditional base-promoted protocols to demonstrate unique capabilities and broad synthetic potential.

Understanding the fundamental relationship between atomic structure and material properties is the holy grail of materials sciences. Towards this goal we are working to develop a real-time and atomistic understanding of the mechanistic steps taken during the growth and transformation of crystalline materials. To do this we employ a combination of complementary synthetic and characterization approaches, in particular using in situ ultra-high resolution transmission electron microscopy (TEM) to observe key structural transformations in real-time. Our in situ experiments include directly performing nanomaterial synthesis in the TEM, as well as determining the kinetics of structural phase transformations of as-synthesized inorganic nanocrystals. Further, based on an unexpected observation made during one of these in situ measurements, we have developed a new approach to directly synthesize arrays of crystallographically well-defined nanoscale interfaces. Several examples will be presented to illustrate our approach, including: the real-time observation of the solid-state synthesis of an individual nanocapsule; a post-synthetic structural phase transformation within an individual nanorod; and finally, the creation of new nanostructured architectures using liquid metal nanodroplets.

Abstract:

From the initial genetic patterning to the assembly of the whole embryo, how ordered structures form has always been a fundamental question in developmental biology. The recent advances in imaging technologies are now providing us with direct visual access to the development of whole organisms in unprecedented detail. However, it is clear that to make the best use of this complex data, we need the help of computer algorithms that can mine it for biologically relevant information, summarize and then visualize it for us. The first project I will present focuses on the mechanisms driving the development of diverse 3D bone morphologies in mice. There, we developed algorithms to analyze micro-CT images to deconstruct the final morphology of each bone into the contributions made by remodeling of mineralized tissue vs. the cartilaginous growth plates. This allowed us to demonstrate the central role of the growth plate in 3D bone morphogenesis in normal and pathological development. The second project aims to understand how different cell activities contribute to large-scale morphogenetic movements. To this end, we generated the first whole embryo single-cell atlas of morphogenetic activity underlying gastrulation in the fruit fly, then used these maps to derive a statistical model associating cell shape changes and rearrangements to body axis elongation.

Areas of Interest:

My lab focuses on understanding how cells organize to form various tissue morphologies during normal and pathological development. We use two model systems to achieve this: the musculoskeletal system in mice and whole embryo development in fruit flies. Our approach centers on the development of cutting-edge bioimage informatics and data science algorithms to analyze the dynamics and the underlying patterns in developing tissues through 3D and 4D (3D+time) fluorescence images.

The role of Cytochrome P450 Metabolism of Dietary Fatty Acids on Neurodegeneration (April 12, 2023 4:00pm) https://events.umich.edu/event/101181 101181-21800914@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Wednesday, April 12, 2023 4:00pm

Despite decades of research, the mechanism of neurodegeneration remains unclear. Ferroptosis, a non-apoptotic programmed cell death driven by an iron-dependent membrane lipid peroxidation, is an emerging target and mechanism for aging and age-associated neurodegenerative diseases. While membrane lipid peroxidation is one of the molecular hallmarks of ferroptosis, the involvement of specific polyunsaturated fatty acids and their downstream metabolites as endogenous lipid mediators of ferroptosis remains understudied. Here, we hypothesize that cytochrome P450 (CYP)-epoxide hydrolases metabolites of PUFAs are a new class of lipid mediators of ferroptosis. \r\nInvestigating the effects of specific PUFA and PUFA metabolites on ferroptosis are challenging for two main reasons. Firstly, there is a plethora of endogenous biosynthetic and metabolic enzymatic pathways, and these enzymes express differently across diverse tissues. Secondly, the mechanism of ferroptosis is not well-defined or characterized. Therefore, a system approach is likely needed. To overcome these challenges, we employed Caenorhabditis elegans (C. elegans) as a novel simplified biological model. Using a well-established neurodegenerative assay and transgenic C. elegans with green-fluorescent protein-tagged (GFP) neurons, we show that among all the tested PUFAs, only dihomo-gamma-linolenic acid (DGLA) triggers significant ferroptosis-mediated neurodegeneration after one day of exposure. Interestingly, only dopaminergic neurons and, to a lesser extent, glutaminergic neurons were affected in our studies. Using our state-of-the-art oxylipins analysis and comprehensive chemical probes, we identified the dihydroxy- metabolites of DGLA are likely the lipid mediator responsible for DGLA-induced ferroptosis-mediated neurodegeneration. We were also able to show that epoxide hydrolases play a key role in ferroptosis and neurodegeneration. \r\nIn short, our study identified a novel class of endogenous lipid mediators of ferroptosis. Our findings improve our understanding of how PUFA downstream metabolism modulates neurodegeneration. Additionally, the developed C. elegans models and identified dihydroxy- metabolites of DGLA provide a strong foundation for us to further investigate the mechanism of ferroptosis-mediated neurodegeneration that would identify a novel mechanism for ferroptosis and novel therapeutic targets for preventative or disease-altering treatments for neurodegenerative diseases. At the end of this presentation, we will also share the current drug discovery effort to target this metabolism for neurodegenerative diseases.

Top-down proteomics (TDP) aims to characterize the proteome samples in a proteoform-specific manner and accomplish the human proteoform project (PMID: 34767442), which requires highly efficient separation and sensitive detection of proteoforms due to the extremely high sample complexity. Capillary electrophoresis-mass spectrometry (CE-MS) for top-down MS analysis of intact proteins/proteoforms is pioneered by the McLafferty, Lee, and Smith groups in 1990s. CE-MS is a powerful analytical technique for proteoform measurements due to its extremely high efficiency and sensitivity for proteoform separation and detection. However, due to the limitations of MS instrumentation and robustness of CE-MS interface, CE-MS had not been widely adopted until the recent 10 years. During the last decade, CE-MS interface has tremendous improvement in terms of sensitivity and robustness and several interfaces have been commercialized. MS instrumentation has impressive improvement in terms of mass resolution, gas-phase fragmentation performance, speed, and sensitivity. Using the modern instrumentation, it is straightforward to achieve the identification of thousands of proteoforms from whole cell lysates using CE-MS/MS with high reproducibility. For example, our group recently demonstrated the identification of over 23,000 proteoforms from colorectal cancer cells and documented drastically different proteoform profiles between metastatic and non-metastatic colorectal cancer cells using CE-MS/MS (PMID: 36542699). It is also approachable to delineate large proteoforms (e.g., monoclonal antibodies) and membrane proteoforms using CE-MS and MS/MS. We expect that CE-MS will be a powerful analytical tool for high-throughput TDP of various complex biological samples in the next several years.

Understanding structure-function relationships in transition-metal-containing enzymes (April 18, 2023 4:00pm) https://events.umich.edu/event/101765 101765-21802331@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Tuesday, April 18, 2023 4:00pm

The Silakov laboratory seeks to uncover principles underpinning biology\'s control over the reactivity of metal complexes in enzymes. Millions of years of natural selection in harsh, nutrient-limiting environments evolved organisms into highly effective and extremely selective metabolic systems. Organisms from all kingdoms of life are replete with enzymes that facilitate a staggering array of reactions with efficiency using nothing but abundant 3rd-row transition metal ions that is hard to replicate using pure synthetic chemistry approaches. To understand how similar metal-containing catalytic centers can vary their reactivity depending on the protein environment, we employ various advanced experimental methods such as Electron Paramagnetic Resonance and Infrared spectroscopies, (spectro)electrochemistry, and protein film voltammetry. As some knowledge gaps about the function of enzymes stem from the absence of suitable experimental techniques, we also have a strong interested in developing novel biophysical approaches that allow addressing such gaps. This talk will present two case studies performed by the Silakov laboratory: a superfamily of Fe/2OG oxygenases involved in the biosynthesis of natural products, and [FeFe] hydrogenases which are highly effective H2-producing enzymes. The ultimate goal of our fundamental research is to inform the development of new biotechnologies to allow environmentally friendly biosynthetic production of much-needed molecules such as drugs and renewable energy resources.

The development of efficient renewable energy conversion and storage devices to curb climate change is one of the most important challenges of the 21st century. This can be addressed by using renewable electricity to manufacture chemical fuels and synthetic precursors, or by generating electricity with carbon-neutral fuel cell devices. However, electrocatalytic processes are hampered by low efficiencies and poor reaction selectivity because of a lack of rational methods available to create controllable catalyst materials with the preferred electrochemical activities. In this seminar Prof. Hall will discuss the use of ordered intermetallic compounds (OICs), which are alloys that display high electrocatalytic activities because their well-defined compositions and long-range atomic scale ordering enable predictable geometric and electronic interactions, in contrast to the more widely studied solid-solution type alloys. However, OIC materials are difficult to synthesize in nanomaterial form because conventional synthesis methods offer poor control over the composition, phase, and morphology. I will discuss our efforts on the synthesis, stability, and catalytic activity of OICs prepared by electrochemical methods at room temperature and atmospheric pressure. Our strategies include the use of electrochemically induced phase transformations which enables us to convert a base metal rich alloy to an OIC richer in nobler metal by removal of the base metal, and the direct production of OIC materials by electrochemical deposition. We will also discuss how we leverage the atomically precise configuration of atoms within OICs to reveal detailed insights into how a material’s structure regulates its electrochemical properties. Developing new methods for preparing OIC compounds under ambient conditions is essential for designing catalysts for the next generation of renewable energy conversion devices

New Insights into Iron Transport in Mycobacterium tuberculosis and beyond (April 25, 2023 4:00pm) https://events.umich.edu/event/95866 95866-21791208@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Tuesday, April 25, 2023 4:00pm

The highly contagious disease tuberculosis (TB) is caused by the bacterium Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb), which has been evolving drug resistance at an alarming rate due to the harsh, long drug treatments. Like all human pathogens, iron is essential for Mtb’s survival and virulence. Consequently, Mtb iron transport is an emerging drug target. However, the development of anti-TB drugs aimed at these metabolic pathways have been restricted by the dearth of information on Mtb iron acquisition. Mtb has multiple strategies utilized to acquire ferric iron and heme-iron. Mtb iron uptake is a complex process requiring biosynthesis and subsequent export of Mtb siderophores, followed by ferric iron scavenging and ferric-siderophore import into Mtb. Additionally, Mtb uptakes heme and has a Mtb-specific mechanism of heme degradation that yields iron and novel heme-degradation products. Here we present several aspects of these pathways to close the knowledge gaps of iron acquisition in mycobacteria.

Molten salt nuclear reactors are a promising technology for the production of green energy. The high boiling points and low vapor pressures of these systems make them considerably safer than traditional light water reactors, and the ability to run molten salt reactors in a breeder/burner configuration results in higher material use efficiency, and lower waste generation. One key challenge associated with these systems is material corrosion, and understanding how actinide materials, such as uranium, can affect corrosion kinetics in these systems is an important goal. In this talk, Dr. Lhermitte outlines the design and construction of the electroanalytical capabilities of the molten salt chemistry laboratory at Los Alamos National Lab to investigate these problems. Key discoveries as part of this work were: the design of a new type of sealed Mg/MgCl2 reference electrode, the preparation of small area electrodes for high resolution cyclic voltammetry, and the development of electromotive force measurements to determine the formal potential of U3+/U0 in chloride melts. Finally, Dr. Lhermitte also outlines how molten salt electrochemical methods can be leveraged to electrodeposit materials with extremely low reduction potentials, such as Zr, for applications as coatings in solid state nuclear fuels.

Billions of safely given mRNA vaccine doses have saved millions of lives worldwide and proved beyond the shadow of a doubt that a transformative era of RNA Therapeutics is upon us, with great promise for overcoming virtually all diseases within this century through personalized medicines. Yet RNA can do so much more! Since the human genome project was completed, we know that at least 75% of our 3 billion DNA base pairs are transcribed into RNA, with the vast majority not coding for proteins but rather for “non-coding” RNAs (ncRNAs). Many of these ncRNAs remain uncharacterized in terms of their structure and function, spawning discussions of whether they are functional or not (and what “biological function” even is!). These applications and discoveries suggest that so far we have underestimated the far-reaching “RNA World” in our body, which may well also have spawned life on earth.
After an introduction to the power and benefits of these “new” and “old” RNA Worlds, this seminar will highlight some of the foundational work by the Walter lab, in which we use modern single molecule fluorescence microscopy to dissect and control the nanometer-sized RNA-protein assemblies that govern life, and particularly gene expression. Specifically, single molecule fluorescence resonance energy transfer (smFRET) allows us to measure distances at the 2-8 nm scale, whereas complementary super-resolution localization techniques measure distances in the 10 nm and longer range where biology occurs. Embracing the power of these technical advances, we have combined single-molecule, biochemical and computational simulation approaches to show that a bacterial riboswitch – controlled by a metabolite ligand – manipulates the speed of the much larger bacterial RNA polymerase. We posit that many more examples of such intimate coupling between RNA folding and gene expression remain to be discovered, leading to opportunities to identify new Achilles’ heels of the many pathogens that threaten human health. In addition, we are developing tools to observe single RNA nanomachines in action within their natural habitats inside living cells, leading to discoveries that may guide the development of novel cancer-fighting approaches.

Molecular Understanding, Design and Development of Zwitterionic Materials (May 11, 2023 4:00pm) https://events.umich.edu/event/97541 97541-21794695@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Thursday, May 11, 2023 4:00pm

An important challenge in many applications is the prevention of unwanted nonspecific biomolecular and microorganism attachment on surfaces. To address this challenge, our goals are twofold. First, we strive to provide a fundamental understanding of nonfouling mechanisms at the molecular level. Second, we aim to develop biocompatible materials based on the molecular principles learned. As a result, we have shown that zwitterionic materials and surfaces are highly resistant to nonspecific protein adsorption and microorganism attachment from complex media. With zwitterionic coatings, hydrogels or nanoparticles, results show no capsule formation upon subcutaneous implantation in mice for one year, expansion of hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs) without differentiation, no anti-coagulants needed for artificial lungs in sheep, no antibodies generated against zwitterionic polymers, and environmentally benign marine coatings. Unlike poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG), there exist diversified zwitterionic molecular structures to accommodate various properties and applications. Furthermore, zwitterionic materials are super-hydrophilic while their PEG counterparts are amphiphilic. Currently, we are integrating immunology into our biomaterials research and translating our biomaterials to applications ranging from cancer vaccine to precision medicine.

Designed and run by graduate students, the Isabella and Jerome Karle Symposium serves as a venue for sharing exciting research taking place within the Department of Chemistry.

The Symposium is named for Isabella and Jerome Karle, distinguished graduates of the University of Michigan Department of Chemistry.

Both Isabella and Jerome Karle received their doctorates in physical chemistry from the University of Michigan. Isabella received her B.S., M.A., and Ph.D. from the University of Michigan before the age of 23. The two returned to the University of Michigan to become faculty members in the chemistry department before pursuing illustrious careers at the United States Naval Research Laboratory where they focused on the development and advancement of X-ray crystallography methods. Isabella and Jerome worked together to improve upon these methods needed to analyze and understand complex biomolecules. Though both contributed to solving this problem, only Jerome Karle was awarded, jointly with Herbert Hauptman, a Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 1985 “for their outstanding achievements in the development of direct methods for the determination of crystal structures”. Isabella and Jerome Karle’s contribution to chemistry can be felt around the world as laboratories perform X-ray crystallography experiments necessary to determine molecular structures.

The Karle Symposium was formerly known as the Victor Vaughan Symposium and PECRUM.

News from Phosphorus in Low Coordination (August 10, 2023 4:00pm) https://events.umich.edu/event/109145 109145-21821130@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Thursday, August 10, 2023 4:00pm
Location: Chemistry Dow Lab
Organized By: Department of Chemistry

Low-coordinate phosphorus(III) compounds have recently re-gained noticeable interest as the very peculiar stereoelectronic and coordination properties of such λ3σ2-species differ significantly from classical trivalent λ3σ3-phosphanes. These special characteristics can lead to interesting effects in more applied research fields, such as homogeneous catalysis and material science.

This lecture will focus on the design and preparation of novel, functionalized phosphinines, the higher homologs of pyridines. Special emphasis will be paid to the modification of their electronic properties, their coordination chemistry and reactivity. A novel route towards terminal cyaphido-complexes LnM-C≡P will also be highlighted.

ACADEMIC KEYNOTE TITLE: Organic Reaction Development Meets Data Science

ABSTRACT: The optimization of catalytic reactions for organic synthesis is difficult as the interplay between the ligand, reaction conditions, and substrates involved is a complex multidimensional problem. In other words, it is difficult to ascertain the pattern within the noise to offer a complete picture of how to optimize and/or interrupt why a certain set of conditions are required for a particular reaction. Therefore, we have aimed to develop several data science-based tools that assist the rapid analysis of structure function relationships to reveal the underlying reasons for improved performance of substrates and catalysts. Specifically, we have used new methods to develop descriptors for complex molecular architectures as well as data science methods to discern how these catalysts interact with a range of substrate types. This lecture will outline how we have put into practice a workflow that integrates data science tools, physical organic chemistry, and reaction optimization with a focus on new case studies in catalytic processes.
