Plants, as with humans, require photoprotection against the potentially damaging effects of overexposure to ultraviolet (UV) radiation. Previously, sinapoyl malate (SM) was identified as the photoprotective agent in thale cress. Here, we seek to identify the photoprotective agent in a similar plant, garden cress, which is currently used in the skincare product Detoxophane nc. To achieve this, we explore the photodynamics of both the garden cress sprout extract and Detoxophane nc with femtosecond transient electronic absorption spectroscopy. With the assistance of liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry, we determine that the main UV-absorbing compound in garden cress sprout extract is SM. Importantly, our studies reveal that the photoprotection properties of the SM in the garden cress sprout extract present in Detoxophane nc are not compromised by the formulation environment. The result suggests that Detoxophane nc containing the garden cress sprout extract may offer additional photoprotection to the end user in the form of a UV filter booster. 相似文献

An improved scheme to help in the prediction of protein structure is presented. This procedure generates improved starting conformations of a protein suitable for energy minimization. Trivariate gaussian distribution functions for the π, ψ, and χ1 dihedral angles have been derived, using conformational data from high resolution protein structures selected from the Protein Data Bank (PDB). These trivariate probability functions generate initial values for the π, ψ, and χ1 dihedral angles which reflect the experimental values found in the PDB. These starting structures speed the search of the conformational space by focusing the search mainly in the regions of native proteins. The efficiency of the new trivariate probability distributions is demonstrated by comparing the results for the α-class polypeptide fragment, the mutant Antennapedia (C39 → S) homeodomain (2HOA), with those from two reference probability functions. The first reference probability function is a uniform or flat probability function and the second is a bivariate probability function for π and ψ. The trivariate gaussian probability functions are shown to search the conformational space more efficiently than the other two probability functions. The trivariate gaussian probability functions are also tested on the binding domain of Streptococcal protein G (2GB1), an α/β class protein. Since presently available energy functions are not accurate enough to identify the most native-like energy-minimized structures, three selection criteria were used to identify a native-like structure with a 1.90-Å rmsd from the NMR structure as the best structure for the Antennapedia fragment. Each individual selection criterion (ECEPP/3 energy, ECEPP/3 energy-plus-free energy of hydration, or a knowledge-based mean field method) was unable to identify a native-like structure, but simultaneous application of more than one selection criterion resulted in a successful identification of a native-like structure for the Antennapedia fragment. In addition to these tests, structure predictions are made for the Antennapedia polypeptide, using a Pattern Recognition-based Importance-Sampling Minimization (PRISM) procedure to predict the backbone conformational state of the mutant Antennapedia homeodomain. The ten most probable backbone conformational state predictions were used with the trivariate and bivariate gaussian dihedral angle probability distributions to generate starting structures (i.e., dihedral angles) suitable for energy minimization. The final energy-minimized structures show that neither the trivariate nor the bivariate gaussian probability distributions are able to overcome the inaccuracies in the backbone conformational state predictions to produce a native-like structure. Until highly accurate predictions of the backbone conformational states become available, application of these dihedral angle probability distributions must be limited to problems, such as homology modeling, in which only a limited portion of the backbone (e.g., surface loops) must be explored. © 1996 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 相似文献

A series of cis-platinum ethynyl complexes with the general formula cis-[Pt(dppe)(C[triple bond]CR)2](dppe = 1,2-bis(diphenylphosphino)ethane; R = C6H4-p-NO2 1, C6H4-p-CH3 2, C6H4-p-C[triple bond]CH 3 and C6H4-p-C6H4-p-C[triple bond]CH 4) have been prepared by the coupling reaction of cis-[Pt(dppe)Cl2] with two equivalents of the appropriate alkyne. The new complexes have been fully characterized by spectroscopic techniques, and the cis square planar arrangement at the platinum centre has been confirmed by single-crystal X-ray diffraction studies of complexes 1, 2 and 4. The absorption spectra of the complexes 1-4 are dominated by a pi-->pi* band that contains some platinum (n + 1) p orbital character. The position of the band is dependent on the electron donating or withdrawing properties of the ethynyl substituents, R. Complex 1 displays a triplet emission in the green, at room temperature, while complexes 2-4, display singlet emissions in the blue. Again, the difference can be attributed to the nature of the R substituents. 相似文献

A series of protected and terminal dialkynes with extended pi-conjugation through a condensed aromatic linker unit in the backbone, 1,4-bis(trimethylsilylethynyl)naphthalene, 1,4-bis(ethynyl)naphthalene, 9,10-bis(trimethylsilylethynyl)anthracene, 9,10-bis(ethynyl)anthracene, have been synthesized and characterized spectroscopically. The solid-state structures of and have been confirmed by single crystal X-ray diffraction studies. Reaction of two equivalents of the complex trans-[Ph(Et(3)P)(2)PtCl] with an equivalent of the terminal dialkynes 1,4-bis(ethynyl)benzene and, in (i)Pr(2)NH-CH(2)Cl(2), in the presence of CuI, at room temperature, afforded the platinum(II) di-ynes trans-[Ph(Et(3)P)(2)Pt-C[triple bond, length as m-dash]C-R-C[triple bond, length as m-dash]C-Pt(PEt(3))(2)Ph](R = benzene-1,4-diyl; naphthalene-1,4-diyl and anthracene-9,10-diyl ) while reactions between equimolar quantities of trans-[((n)Bu(3)P)(2)PtCl(2)] and under similar conditions readily afforded the platinum(II) poly-ynes trans-[-((n)Bu(3)P)(2)Pt-C[triple bond]C-R-C[triple bond]C-](n)(R = naphthalene-1,4-diyl and anthracene-9,10-diyl ). The Pt(II) diynes and poly-ynes have been characterized by analytical and spectroscopic methods, and the single crystal X-ray structures of and have been determined. These structures confirm the trans-square planar geometry at the platinum centres and the linear nature of the molecules. The di-ynes and poly-ynes are soluble in organic solvents and readily cast into thin films. Optical spectroscopic measurements reveal that the electron-rich naphthalene and anthracene spacers create strong donor-acceptor interactions between the Pt(II) centres and conjugated ligands along the rigid backbone of the organometallic polymers. Thermogravimetry shows that the di-ynes possess a somewhat higher thermal stability than the corresponding poly-ynes. Both the Pt(II) di-ynes and the poly-ynes exhibit increasing thermal stability along the series of spacers from phenylene through naphthalene to anthracene. 相似文献

In this work chitin was extracted chemically from shrimp shells. Seventeen Bacillus isolates were screened for chitinolytic activity. The chitinolytic strains of Bt. were screened at different temperatures and pHs for their hydrolytic potentials. By using a pair of specific primers, endochitinase gene was amplified from SBS Bt-5 strain through PCR, and then cloned into pTZ57 TA cloning vector and transferred in Escherichia coli DH5α strain. The sequenced gene (GenBank Accession No: HE995800) consists of 2031 nucleotides capable of encoding 676 residues. The protein consisted of three functional domains with a calculated molecular mass of 74.53 kDa and a pI value of 5.83. The amino acid sequence of chi gene showed 99% similarity to the genes of Bt MR11 endochitinase, Bt serovar kurstaki chitinase (kchi), Bt strain MR21 endochitinase and Bacillus cereus B4264. 相似文献

Let R be a ring and \({\mathbb{N}}\) be the set of all non-negative integers. A family of maps \({D=\{d_n\}_{n \in\mathbb{N}}}\) is said to be Jordan triple higher derivable if \({d_n(aba)=\sum \nolimits_{p+q+r=n} d_p(a)d_q(b)d_r(a)}\) holds for all \({a,b \in R}\), where d 0 = I R , (the identity map on R). In this paper, we determine Jordan triple higher derivable map on a ring R, which contains a nontrivial idempotent which is automatically additive. An immediate application of our main result shows that every Jordan triple higher derivable map becomes higher derivation on R. 相似文献

Determination of elemental fingerprint profile of 40 commercial beer samples was performed using inductively coupled plasma–mass
spectrometry combined with principal component analysis and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis. Fourteen trace
elements, 51V, 52Cr, 59Co, 60Ni, 75As, 82Se, 95Mo, 111Cd, 115In, 121Sb, 133Cs, 208Pb, 209Bi, and 238U, were monitored. All 40 beer samples are distinguishable by using the proposed method. ROC analysis showed that individual
beer samples can be correctly identified via the magnitude of its correlation coefficient with respect to the other beers
with low false positive rate. The obtained results suggested that the elemental fingerprint technique is feasible for sample
differentiation and comparison. 相似文献
