Abstract
An efficient [3 + 2] cycloaddition reaction between in situ generated nitrile imines from hydrazonoyl halides and vinylsulfonium salts is developed. The nitrile imines are demonstrated to be a new class of reaction partner for vinylsulfonium salts to conduct the [3 + 2] cycloaddition reaction. The process provides a concise and efficient method for the construction of pyrazole derivatives under mild reaction conditions with broad substrate scope, good product yields, and high regioselectivity.

Abstract
Catechol-O-methyltransferase (COMT) plays a central role in the metabolic inactivation of endogenous neurotransmitters and xenobiotic drugs and hormones having catecholic structures. Its inhibitors are used in clinical practice to treat Parkinson's disease. In this study, a fluorescence-based visualization inhibitor screening method was developed to assess the inhibition activity on COMT both in vitro and in living cells. Following the screening of 94 natural products, Pu-erh tea extract exhibited the most potent inhibitory effect on COMT with an IC50 value of 0.34 μg mL-1. In vivo experiments revealed that Pu-erh tea extract substantially hindered COMT-mediated levodopa metabolism in rats, resulting in a significant increase in levodopa levels and a notable decrease in 3-O-methyldopa in plasma. Subsequently, the chemical components of Pu-erh tea were analyzed using UHPLC-Q-Exactive Orbitrap HRMS, identifying 24 major components. Among them, epigallocatechin gallate, gallocatechin gallate, epicatechin gallate, and catechin gallate exhibited potent inhibition of COMT activity with IC50 values from 93.7 nM to 125.8 nM and were the main bioactive constituents in Pu-erh tea responsible for its COMT inhibition effect. Inhibition kinetics analyses and docking simulations revealed that these compounds competitively inhibit COMT-mediated O-methylation at the catechol site. Overall, this study not only explained how Pu-erh tea catechins inhibit COMT, suggesting Pu-erh tea as a potential dietary intervention for Parkinson's disease, but also introduced a new strategy for discovering COMT inhibitors more effectively.

Abstract
Methyltransferases (MTases) play an important role in the functioning of living systems, catalyzing the methylation reactions of DNA, RNA, proteins, and small molecules, including endogenous compounds and drugs. Many human diseases are associated with disturbances in the functioning of these enzymes; therefore, the study of MTases is an urgent and important task. Most MTases use the cofactor S‑adenosyl‑L‑methionine (SAM) as a methyl group donor. SAM analogs are widely applicable in the study of MTases: they are used in studies of the catalytic activity of these enzymes, in identification of substrates of new MTases, and for modification of the substrates or substrate linking to MTases. In this review, new synthetic analogs of SAM and the problems that can be solved with their usage are discussed.

Abstract
Traditionally, non-specific chemical conjugations, such as acylation of amines on lysine or alkylation of thiols on cysteines, are widely used; however, they have several shortcomings. First, the lack of site-specificity results in heterogeneous products and irreproducible processes. Second, potential modifications near the complementarity-determining region may reduce binding affinity and specificity. Conversely, site-specific methods produce well-defined and more homogenous antibody conjugates, ensuring developability and clinical applications. Moreover, several recent side-by-side comparisons of site-specific and stochastic methods have demonstrated that site-specific approaches are more likely to achieve their desired properties and functions, such as increased plasma stability, less variability in dose-dependent studies (particularly at low concentrations), enhanced binding efficiency, as well as increased tumor uptake. Herein, we review several standard and practical site-specific bioconjugation methods for native antibodies, i.e., those without recombinant engineering. First, chemo-enzymatic techniques, namely transglutaminase (TGase)-mediated transamidation of a conserved glutamine residue and glycan remodeling of a conserved asparagine N-glycan (GlyCLICK), both in the Fc region. Second, chemical approaches such as selective reduction of disulfides (ThioBridge) and N-terminal amine modifications. Furthermore, we list site-specific antibody–drug conjugates in clinical trials along with the future perspectives of these site-specific methods.

Abstract
O- and N-methylations are ubiquitous and recurring features in the biosynthesis of many specialized metabolites. Accordingly, the methyltransferase (MT) enzymes catalyzing these modifications are directly responsible for a substantial fraction of the vast chemodiversity observed in plants. Enabled by DNA sequencing and synthesizing technologies, recent studies have revealed and experimentally validated the trajectories of molecular evolution through which MTs, such as those biosynthesizing caffeine, emerge and shape plant chemistry. Despite these advances, the evolutionary origins of many other alkaloid MTs are still unclear. Focusing on benzylisoquinoline alkaloid (BIA)-producing plants such as opium poppy, we review the functional breadth of BIA N- and O-MT enzymes and their relationship with the chemical diversity of their host species. Drawing on recent structural studies, we discuss newfound insight regarding the molecular determinants of BIA MT function and highlight key hypotheses to be tested. We explore what is known and suspected concerning the evolutionary histories of BIA MTs and show that substantial advances in this domain are within reach. This new knowledge is expected to greatly enhance our conceptual understanding of the evolutionary origins of specialized metabolism.

Abstract
Organosulfur compounds have long played a vital role in organic chemistry and in the development of novel chemical structures and architectures. Prominent among these organosulfur compounds are those involving a sulfur(IV) center, which have been the subject of countless investigations over more than a hundred years. In addition to a long list of textbook sulfur-based reactions, there has been a sustained interest in the chemistry of organosulfur(IV) compounds in recent years. Of particular interest within organosulfur chemistry is the ease with which the synthetic chemist can effect a wide range of transformations through either bond formation or bond cleavage at sulfur. This review aims to cover the developments of the past decade in the chemistry of organic sulfur(IV) molecules and provide insight into both the wide range of reactions which critically rely on this versatile element and the diverse scaffolds that can thereby be synthesized.

Abstract
Herein, we present a dual-amplification sensing strategy-based surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) chip, which combines rolling circle amplification (RCA) and polyadenine (PolyA) assembly for sensitive and reproducible determination of the activity of M.SssI, a cytosine-guanine dinucleotide (CpG) methyltransferase (MTase). Typically, in the presence of M.SssI, RCA process is triggered, resulting in long, single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) fragments that are hybridized with thousands of Raman reporters of Cy3. Afterward, the resultant ssDNA fragments are conjugated to SERS-active substrates made of silver core-gold satellite nanocomposites-modified silicon wafer (Ag-Au NPs@Si), with the SERS enhancement factor of ∼5 × 106. The core-satellite nanostructures are assembled relied on the strong affinity of PolyA toward gold/silver surface. Of particular significance, the developed SERS chip displays an ultrahigh sensitivity with a low limit of detection (LOD) of 2.8 × 10-3 U/mL, which is around 2 orders of magnitude higher than most reported methods. In addition, the constructed chip features a broad detection range covering from 0.05 to 50 U/mL. Besides for the ultrahigh sensitivity and broad dynamic range, the chip also features good reproducibility (e.g., the relative standard deviation (RSD) is less than ∼12%). Taking advantages of these merits, the developed chip is feasible for accurate discrimination of M.SssI with various concentrations spiked in human serum samples with good recoveries ranging from 99.6% to 107%.

Abstract
The enzyme-substrate complex is inherently transient, rendering its detection difficult. In our framework designed for bisubstrate systems-isotope-labeled, activity-based identification and tracking (IsoLAIT)-the common substrate, such as S-adenosyl-l-methionine (AdoMet) for methyltransferases, is replaced by an analogue (e.g., S-adenosyl-l-vinthionine) that, as a probe, creates a tightly bound [enzyme⋅substrate⋅probe] complex upon catalysis by thiopurine-S-methyltransferase (TPMT, EC 2.1.1.67). This persistent complex is then identified by native mass spectrometry from the cellular milieu without separation. Furthermore, the probe's isotope pattern flags even unknown substrates and enzymes. IsoLAIT is broadly applicable for other enzyme systems, particularly those catalyzing group transfer and with multiple substrates, such as glycosyltransferases and kinases.
