Staudinger ligation
The Staudinger ligation is a bioorthogonal chemical reaction, introduced by Saxon and Bertozzi in 2000, that couples an azide and a phosphine to form an amide bond.
Staudinger power station
Staudinger power station (Kraftwerk Staudinger) is a power plant owned by Uniper in Großkrotzenburg near Hanau, Hesse, Germany, with five units of about 2,000 MW commissioned between 1965 and 1992.
Staudinger reaction
The Staudinger reaction converts organic azides into primary amines using phosphines with loss of nitrogen gas, reported by Hermann Staudinger in 1919 and used in bioorthogonal ligation.
Staudinger reduction
The Staudinger reduction is an organic reaction that converts an organic azide to a primary amine with a tertiary phosphine and water, described by Staudinger and Meyer in 1919.
Staudinger synthesis
The Staudinger synthesis is the [2+2] cycloaddition of a ketene with an imine to form a β-lactam, reported by Hermann Staudinger in 1907 and still the most common route to β-lactams.
Staufen (protein)
Staufen (Stau1/Stau2) is a family of double-stranded RNA-binding proteins, first found in Drosophila localizing bicoid and oskar mRNAs, that transport and regulate mRNAs in dendrites, control synaptic plasticity, and modify neurodegeneration via mTOR and autophagy.
Staufen proteins
Staufen proteins are a conserved family of double-stranded RNA-binding proteins, first identified in Drosophila, that localize mRNAs and, in mammals, direct bound transcripts into Staufen-mediated decay.
Staufen-mediated decay
Staufen-mediated decay (SMD), or STAU1-mediated mRNA decay, is a mammalian mRNA degradation pathway triggered when Staufen1 or Staufen2 binds double-stranded RNA sites in 3'-UTRs and recruits UPF1, competing with nonsense-mediated mRNA decay and regulating differentiation.
Stauffenberg
Schenk von Stauffenberg, Swabian noble family first recorded in 1251 as cupbearers of the Counts of Zollern; best known through Claus Graf von Stauffenberg, leader of the failed 20 July 1944 plot against Hitler.
