L‐Hexoses are key components of many biologically relevant natural products and pharmaceuticals. As rare sugars, L‐hexoses are not readily obtained from natural sources. Access to L‐hexose building blocks from commercially available and inexpensive D‐sugars is highly desirable from the viewpoints of organic synthesis and drug discovery. As demonstrated by the convenient preparation of L‐glucosyl,...
Aspirin is a commonly used anti‐inflammatory, analgesic and antithrombotic drug. It has attracted attention due to its potential antifungal therapeutic effect; however, the molecular mechanism is poorly understood. Here, the effects of aspirin on the cell wall of Saccharomyces cerevisiae were explored. We observed by scanning electron microscopy that aspirin could damage the cell wall ultrastructure...
