Abstract
A Rh(III)-catalyzed C-H bond activation and subsequent [4+1] annulation of benzamides with vinyl cyclic carbonates have been developed for the synthesis of isoindolinones, in which the electron-rich alkenes could serve as one-carbon units. This reaction proceeds smoothly with high regioselectivity under oxidant- and silver-free conditions and exhibits broad substrate scope and functional group tolerance including some biological active materials. The scale-up reaction and derivatizations of the product further demonstrate the potential synthetic utility of this transformation.

Abstract
Hydroxylation of aryl sulfonium salts could be realized by utilizing acetohydroxamic acid and oxime as hydroxylative agents in the presence of cesium carbonate as a base, leading to a variety of structurally diverse hydroxylated arenes in 47-95% yields. In addition, the reaction exhibited broad functionality tolerance, and a range of important functional groups (e.g., cyano, nitro, sulfonyl, formyl, keto, and ester) could be well amenable to the mild reaction conditions.

Abstract
More than ten years ago, artificial restriction DNA cutters were developed by combining two pseudo-complementary peptide nucleic acid (pcPNA) strands with either Ce(IV)/EDTA or S1 nuclease. They have remarkably high site-specificity and can cut only one predetermined site in the human genome. In this article, recent progress of these man-made tools have been reviewed. By cutting the human genome site-selectively, desired fragments can be clipped from either the termini of chromosomes (telomeres) or from the middle of genome. These fragments should provide important information on the biological functions of complicated genome system. DNA/RNA hybrid duplexes, which are formed in living cells, are also site-selectively hydrolyzed by these cutters. In order to further facilitate the applications of the artificial DNA cutters, various chemical modifications have been attempted. One of the most important successes is preparation of PNA derivatives which can form double-duplex invasion complex even under high salt conditions. This is important for in vivo applications, since the inside of living cells is abundant of metal ions. Furthermore, site-selective DNA cutters which require only one PNA strand, in place of a pair of pcPNA strands, are developed. This progress has opened a way to new fields of PNA-based biochemistry and biotechnology.

Abstract
The detection of individual telomere lengths of human chromosomes can provide crucial information on genome stability, cancer, and telomere-related diseases. However, current methods to measure telomere length entail shortcomings that have limited their use. Recently, we have developed a method for detection of individual telomere lengths (DITL) that uses a chemistry-based DNA-cutting approach. The most beneficial feature of the DITL approach is to cleave the sequence adjacent to the telomere followed by resolution of the telomere length at the nucleotide level of a single chromosome. In this unit, a protocol for successful detection of individual telomere lengths from individual chromosomes is described in detail.

Abstract
Telomeres are the ends of eukaryotic chromosomes, consisting of consecutive short repeats that protect chromosome ends from degradation. Telomeres shorten with each cell division, leading to replicative cell senescence. Deregulation of telomere length homeostasis is associated with the development of various age-related diseases and cancers. A number of experimental techniques exist for telomere length measurement; however, until recently, the absence of tools for extracting telomere lengths from high-throughput sequencing data has significantly obscured the association of telomere length with molecular processes in normal and diseased conditions. We have developed Computel, a program in R for computing mean telomere length from whole-genome next-generation sequencing data. Computel is open source, and is freely available at https://github.com/lilit-nersisyan/computel. It utilizes a short-read alignment-based approach and integrates various popular tools for sequencing data analysis. We validated it with synthetic and experimental data, and compared its performance with the previously available software. The results have shown that Computel outperforms existing software in accuracy, independence of results from sequencing conditions, stability against inherent sequencing errors, and better ability to distinguish pure telomeric sequences from interstitial telomeric repeats. By providing a highly reliable methodology for determining telomere lengths from whole-genome sequencing data, Computel should help to elucidate the role of telomeres in cellular health and disease.

Abstract
Recently, completely chemistry-based tools for site-selective scission of DNA (ARCUT) have been prepared by combining 2 strands of pseudo-complementary PNA (pcPNA: site-selective activator) and a Ce(IV)-EDTA complex (molecular scissors). Its site-specificity is sufficient to cut the whole human genome at one predetermined site. In this first-generation ARCUT, however, there still remain several problems to be solved for wider applications. This review presents recent approaches to solve these problems. They are divided into (i) covalent modification of pcPNA with other functional groups and (ii) new strategies using conventional PNA, in place of pcPNA, as site-selective activator. Among various chemical modifications, conjugation with positively-charged nuclear localization signal peptide is especially effective. Furthermore, unimolecular activators, a single strand of which successfully activates the target site in DNA for site-selective scission, have been also developed. As the result of these modifications, the site-selective scission by Ce(IV)-EDTA was achieved promptly even under high salt conditions which are otherwise unfavourable for double-duplex invasion. Furthermore, it has been shown that "molecular crowding effect," which characterizes the inside of living cells, enormously promotes the invasion, and thus the invasion seems to proceed effectively and spontaneously in the cells. Strong potential of pcPNA for further applications in vivo and in vitro has been confirmed.

Abstract
Telomere length can provide valuable insight into telomeres and telomerase related diseases, including cancer. Here, we present a brand-new optical telomere length measurement protocol using surface enhanced Raman scattering (SERS). In this protocol, two single strand DNA are used as SERS probes. They are labeled with two different Raman molecules and can specifically hybridize with telomeres and centromere, respectively. First, genome DNA is extracted from cells. Then the telomere and centromere SERS probes are added into the genome DNA. After hybridization with genome DNA, excess SERS probes are removed by magnetic capturing nanoparticles. Finally, the genome DNA with SERS probes attached is dropped onto a SERS substrate and subjected to SERS measurement. Longer telomeres result in more attached telomere probes, thus a stronger SERS signal. Consequently, SERS signal can be used as an indicator of telomere length. Centromere is used as the inner control. By calibrating the SERS intensity of telomere probe with that of the centromere probe, SERS based telomere measurement is realized. This protocol does not require polymerase chain reaction (PCR) or electrophoresis procedures, which greatly simplifies the detection process. We anticipate that this easy-operation and cost-effective protocol is a fine alternative for the assessment of telomere length.

Abstract
Two EDTA analogue-tethered C2-symmetrical dimeric monopyrrole-polyamide 5 and dipyrrole-polyamide 6, and their corresponding Ce(IV) complexes Ce-5 and Ce-6 were synthesized and fully characterized. Agarose gel electrophoresis studies on pBR322 DNA cleavage indicate that complexes Ce-5 and Ce-6 exhibited potent DNA-cleaving activities under physiological conditions. The maximal first-order rate constants (kmax's) were (0.42 ± 0.02) h(-1) for Ce-5 and (0.52 ± 0.02) h(-1) for Ce-6, respectively, suggesting that both complexes catalyzed the cleavage of supercoiled DNA by up to approximately 10(8)-fold. Complex Ce-6 exhibited ca 10-fold higher overall catalytic activity (kmax/KM) than Ce-5, which may be ascribed to its higher DNA-binding affinity. Inhibition experiments and a model study convincingly suggest that both complexes Ce-5 and Ce-6 functioned as hydrolytic DNA-cleavers. In addition, both complexes were found to display moderate inhibitory activity toward A549 and HepG-2 cells.

Abstract
Cut loose: A pseudocomplementary peptide nucleic acid was tethered to a pyrrole/imidazole hairpin polyamide, and was used to selectively target a specific DNA sequence. Binding even occurs under high salt conditions. Furthermore, the conjugate facilitated sequence-specific scission of long dsDNA. This simple approach promises to resolve the technical difficulties in targeting DNA sequences with PNA.
