Abstract:
Lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) is a potent lipid mediator with actions on many cell types. Morphological changes involving actin polymerization are mediated by at least two cognate G protein-coupled receptors, LPA1/EDG-2 or LPA2/EDG-4. Herein, we show that LPA can also induce actin depolymerization preceding actin polymerization within single TR mouse immortalized neuroblasts. Actin depolymerization resulted in immediate loss of membrane ruffling, whereas actin polymerization resulted in process retraction. Each pathway was found to be independent: depolymerization mediated by intracellular calci

Abstract:
Two-dimensional single-crystal-to-single-crystal polymerization and depolymerization are described in detail. The results are based on in-house and synchrotron X-ray diffraction experiments conducted on several samples at 100 K and room temperature. The reactions are associated with considerable molecular motions of all components (monomer, template and incorporated solvent molecules), which can be as large as 1 Å. Continuous polymerization leads to a gradual gap opening between the emerging two-dimensional polymer layers, which allows for increased mobility of the solvent molecules. The posit

Abstract:
Reversing controlled radical polymerization and regenerating the monomer has been a long-standing challenge for fundamental research and practical applications. Herein, we report a highly efficient depolymerization method for various polymethacrylates synthesized by reversible addition-fragmentation chain-transfer (RAFT) polymerization. The depolymerization process, which does not require any catalyst, exhibits near-quantitative conversions of up to 92%. The key aspect of our approach is the utilization of the high end-group fidelity of RAFT polymers to generate chain-end radicals at 120 °C. T

Abstract:
This paper describes the application of Fe-MCM-48 (Mobil Composition of Matter No.48) and cellulase-MCM-48 catalysts for the depolymerization of chitosan. The results show that H2O2 is a good oxidant for the depolymerization of chitosan in the presence of Fe-MCM-48. The average polymerization degree of the product decreased to 6.1, and decreased to 29.2 when cellulase-MCM-48 was used as a catalyst, because the effect of the enzyme was affected by the molecular structure of chitosan. When both materials were used for depolymerization, the average degree of polymerization sharply decreased to 3.

Abstract:
The reversion of vinyl polymers with carbon-carbon backbones to their monomers represents an ideal path to alleviate the growing plastic waste stream. However, depolymerizing such stable materials remains a challenge, with state-of-the-art methods relying on “designer” polymers that are neither commercially produced nor suitable for real-world applications. In this work, we report a main chain–initiated, visible light–triggered depolymerization directly applicable to commercial polymers containing undisclosed impurities (e.g., comonomers, additives, or dyes).

Actin is a major functional and structural cytoskeletal protein that mediates such diverse processes as motility, cytokinesis, contraction, and control of cell shape and polarity. While many extracellular signals are known to mediate actin filament polymerization, considerably less is known about signals that mediate depolymerization of the actin cytoskeleton.

Microtubule dynamics underlie spindle assembly, yet we do not know how the spindle environment affects these dynamics. We developed methods for measuring two key parameters of microtubule plus-end dynamic instability in Xenopus egg extract spindles. To measure plus-end polymerization rates and localize growing plus ends, we used fluorescence confocal imaging of EB1. This revealed plus-end polymerization throughout the spindle at ∼11 μm/min, similar to astral microtubules, suggesting polymerization velocity is not regionally regulated by the spindle.

This study considered the potential use of lignin as possible renewable fuel and chemical feedstock source. Among the various polymers present in lignocellulosic biomass, the polyaromatic lignin is the one component that is most chemically similar to petroleum. However, it still contains a much larger amount of oxygen compared to crude oil. As such, two strategies were employed in this study: (1) studying the lignin depolymerization in the presence of high temperature and base catalysts; and, (2) employing hydrodeoxygenation as a means to decrease the O/C ratio in lignin-derived model compound

Abstract:
Since the early 1800s, siloxane has been an industrial staple due to its remarkable structure, but even though there are many benefits for using siloxanes, there are significant environmental implications, one of which being the lack of recyclability. As the first step to polymerization or the depolymerization of polymers, the scission of the silicone bond is essential. While condition-specific reactions investigating what triggers polymerization have been extensively studied, traditional synthesis methods are unfortunately not ideal due to their high cost and detrimental release of greenhouse gases. Since the 1950s, several studies have related to rupturing the siloxane bond, including hydrolysis, catalytic depolymerization, thermal depolymerization, and radical extractions. This work has resulted in new polymers, cyclics, and monomeric silanes. However, only a few studies have focused on how to build new silicone-based materials from the primary siloxane cyclic forms. Thus, more investigation into better methods for recycling siloxanes is needed. This chapter summarizes and categorizes the published data on the degradation and depolymerization of polysiloxanes based on their reaction temperature up to July 2021.

Abstract:
Abstract Cytoskeletal dynamics are essential for cell survival. The microfilament system is one of the major players in cell motility processes. It exerts force for movement either by the action of molecular motors on relatively stable filaments or by dynamic turnover of actin filaments. In the latter case processes such as filament polymerization, depolymerization. and bundling are regulated in a temporal and spatial manner, governed by actin-binding proteins. The complexity of the actin system arises from the multitude of actin-binding proteins, often with partly overlapping activities, displaying multiple functions or effects on actin polymerization, depending on the intracellular environment. Therefore, detailed biochemical studies of individual actin-binding proteins and their interaction with actin or with regulatory ligands are necessary to understand cellular motility phenomena. The field is now slowly progressing towards in vitro studies with more than one actin-binding protein, because it is dear that in cells these proteins either compete with each other or have additive or co-operative effects on aetin reorganization.

Abstract:
Over the last fifty years, synthetic materials have largely replaced natural materials such as wood, leather, wool, and cotton. Plastics and polymers are perhaps the most visible sign of how organic chemistry has changed society. ‘Polymers, plastics, and textiles’ explains that polymerization involves linking molecular building blocks (termed monomers) into long molecular strands called polymers and describes the two general approaches to preparing polymers: addition polymers and condensation polymers. The various health, environmental, ecological, and economic issues are considered before looking at the processes of recycling and depolymerization and recent efforts to develop biodegradable plastics and bioplastics. It ends with exciting new developments of new polymers with novel applications.

Abstract:
Abstract The cytoskeleton is a complex fibrillar system required for mechanical stability and phenomena as diverse and essential as cell division, anchorage, and cell locomotion. This system further provides highways for the directed transport of organelles or vesicles, driven by molecular motors. The tight spatial compartmentalization of cytoplasmic components by the cytoskeleton is a prerequisite for the high order of signalling that discriminates eukaryotic cells from pro-karyotes. The cytoskeleton is grossly divided into three distinct filamentous systems: actin filaments, microtubules, and the intermediate filament system. All three filament systems are formed by monomers from protein families that can each polymerize into filaments in a non-covalent manner. The dynamic turnover of these filaments via polymerization and depolymerization creates the high flexibility of the cell that is needed to respond to extracellular signals or to follow endogenous rhythms like the cell cycle.
