Relationship Between Architecture and Adhesion in Polyurethane‐Based Copolymers, 2

Summary: This study describes the chain extension, with polycaprolactone diols, of polyurethane‐graft‐poly(butyl acrylate)s which were first prepared by the step growth polymerization of a mixture of diphenylmethane‐4,4′‐diisocyanate (MDI) and α,α′‐dihydroxyl‐poly(butyl acrylate)s. The success of the chain extension reaction was studied and confirmed by ¹H NMR, SEC and DSC analysis. The incorporation of polycaprolactone sequences in the polyurethane chains modified their specific adhesive properties, bringing cohesion to the material, as demonstrated by tack measurements.

Acrylic‐Based Polyurethane/Silica Hybrids Prepared by Acid‐Catalyzed Sol–Gel Process: Structure and Mechanical Properties

Summary: Silica sols were first prepared based on different ratios of tetraethoxysilane (TEOS) and methyltriethoxysilane (MTES) by an acid‐catalyzed sol–gel process, and then incorporated into acrylic‐based polyurethanes. The structures and morphologies of silicone‐oxo clusters were studied by ²⁹Si NMR, SAXS, and scanning electron microscopy (SEM), whereas the mechanical properties of polyurethane/silica hybrids were characterized by DMA and tensile tests. The silicone‐oxo clusters in both silica sol and polyurethane hybrids became denser and larger at a higher molar ratio of TEOS/MTES and higher silica content, and the silica‐oxo clusters of polyurethane/silica hybrids even became more compact and larger than those of silica sols, increasing the elastic modulus and tensile strength of polyurethane/silica hybrids.

Typical structure of silica sol prepared from the hydrolysis and condensation of TEOS and MTES with acid as the catalyst.     

In vivo requirements for rDNA chromosome condensation reveal two cell-cycle-regulated pathways for mitotic chromosome folding

Chromosome condensation plays an essential role in the maintenance of genetic integrity. Using genetic, cell biological, and biochemical approaches, we distinguish two cell-cycle-regulated pathways for chromosome condensation in budding yeast. From G(2) to metaphase, we show that the condensation of the approximately 1-Mb rDNA array is a multistep process, and describe condensin-dependent clustering, alignment, and resolution steps in chromosome folding. We functionally define a further postmetaphase chromosome assembly maturation step that is required for the maintenance of chromosome structural integrity during segregation. This late step in condensation requires the conserved mitotic kinase Ipl1/aurora in addition to condensin, but is independent of cohesin. Consistent with this, the late condensation pathway is initiated during the metaphase-to-anaphase transition, supports de novo condensation in cohesin mutants, and correlates with the Ipl1/aurora-dependent phosphorylation of condensin. These data provide insight into the molecular mechanisms of higher-order chromosome folding and suggest that two distinct condensation pathways, one involving cohesins and the other Ipl1/aurora, are required to modulate chromosome structure during mitosis.     

Packing and Uniaxial Alignment of Liquid Crystalline Oligofluorenes

Summary: Liquid crystalline oligomers of 9,9‐bis(2‐ethylhexyl)fluorene of defined degree of polymerization 4, 5, 6, and 7 were investigated by X‐ray diffraction in the non‐oriented and in the aligned state. The diffraction data give evidence for a smectic B type phase for all of the oligomers. Quenching below the glass transition does not change the structure of the liquid crystalline phase. This allows to align spin‐coated films of these oligomers on rubbed polyimide substrates to give monodomain films. These are stable against thermal disordering below T_g, e.g. at room temperature. The degree of alignment is characterized by the dichroic spectra and polarized fluorescence spectra. Dichroic ratios and polarization ratios increase substantially with the chain length and values as high as D = 23 and P = 41 are obtained for the heptamer. The type of packing of the oligomers in the LC phase is discussed based on the X‐ray single crystal structure of models. In one such model the packing of the 2‐ethylhexyl side chains could be fully resolved, while the other model reveals the torsional angle between adjacent fluorene units in the same molecule as 144.2° which corroborates earlier work based on fiber diffraction of corresponding polyfluorenes.

     

Separate and variably shaped chromosome arm domains are disclosed by chromosome arm painting in human cell nuclei

Fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) with microdissection probes from human chromosomes 3 and 6 was applied to visualize arm and subregional band domains in human amniotic fluid cell nuclei. Confocal laser scanning microscopy and quantitative three-dimensional image analysis showed a pronounced variability of p- and q-arm domain arrangements and shapes. Apparent intermingling of neighbouring arm domains was limited to the domain surface. Three-dimensional distance measurements with pter and qter probes supported a high variability of chromosome territory folding.
