Targeted sequencing reveals clonal genetic changes in the progression of early lung neoplasms and paired circulating DNA.

abstract：:Chemical synthesis of amino acids from renewable sources is an alternative route to the current processes based on fermentation. Here, we report visible-light-driven amination of biomass-derived α-hydroxyl acids and glucose into amino acids using NH3 at 50 °C. Ultrathin CdS nanosheets are identified as an efficient an...
