Photoinduced DNA cleavage by fullerene-lysine conjugate

A novel water-soluble [60] fullerene-substituted lysine derivative 3 has been synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, ¹H NMR, ¹³C NMR and FAB-MS. The synthetic procedure involved condensation of Boc-protected lysine with terephthaldehyde followed by 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reaction with C₆₀ in the presence of sarcosine and finally deprotection of the amino group using trifluoroacetic acid. The synthesized compound 3 exhibited high DNA cleavage efficiency upon visible light irradiation in the presence of NADH.     

Synthesis and Gelation Capability of Fmoc and Boc Mono-substituted Cyclo(L-Lys-L-Lys)s

Fmoc or Boc mono-substituted cyclo(L-Lys-L-Lys)s were synthesized via the reaction of lysine cyclic dipeptide with Fmoc N-hydroxysuccinimide este(Fmoc-OSu) and di-tert-butyl dicarbonate[(Boc)₂O], respectively. The resulted mono-substituted cyclo(L-Lys-L-Lys)s(2-4) by means of test tube inversion method served as organogelators enabled to form stable thermo-reversible organogels in alcoholic, substituted benzene and chlorinated solvents, with the minimum gelation concentration(MGC) in a range of 1%-4%(mass fraction). The transmission electron microscopy(TEM) and scanning electron microscopy(SEM) observations reveal that these gelators self-assembled into 3D nanofiber, nanoribbon or nanotube network structures. The rheological measurement exhibited that the storage modulus of gels is higher than the loss one, and the complex viscosity is reduced linearly with the increasing of scanning frequency. The fluorescence spectrum of compound 2 in 1,2-dichloroethane and benzene demonstrates that the emission peak of Fmoc at 320 nm has red-shifted and the intensity decreases gradually, while the intensity of the emission peak at 460 nm substantially enhances as a function of concentration, indicating the existence of π-π sta- cking interactions and the formation of J-type aggregates. Meanwhile, compound 4 self-assembled into nanotubes via the stacking of multiple bilayer membranes. Fmoc and Boc disubstituted cyclo(L-Lys-L-Lys)(3) holds the relatively lower MGC values, showing the stronger gelation ability in most selected organic solvents due to the presence of both Fmoc and Boc groups.     

Spectroscopic studies of a BINAM-based sensor: Highly selective fluorescent recognition of lysine in water solution through a nucleophilic substitution reaction

A BINAM-based compound (R)-1 is found to show significant fluorescence enhancement in the presence of Lys in aqueous solution (1%DMF). This probe achieves highly selective fluorescent recognition of Lys even in the presence of other natural amino acids. It can be used as a sensitive as well as selective fluorescent probe for Lys. The mechanism for the interaction of (R)-1 with Lys was studied by NMR and HRMS.

The uncertainty in the calculation of the amount of blocked and reactive lysine in milk products,as determined by the furosine method

The measurement uncertainty in the calculation of the amount of blocked and reactive lysine (as determined by the furosine method) was evaluated according to the procedure described in the Eurachem/CITAC guide. The analytical method involves the chromatographic determination of lysine and furosine after acid hydrolysis. The calculation of blocked and reactive lysine in the initial protein is based on known conversion factors. The estimation of the uncertainty was performed in two steps: (1) determination of the uncertainty in the chromatographic determination of lysine and furosine, and (2) determination of the uncertainty in the calculation of blocked and reactive lysine. The individual contributions to the final uncertainty were identified, quantified, and combined in uncertainty budgets. The largest contribution to the calculation of blocked lysine came from estimating the conversion factor of blocked lysine into furosine during acid hydrolysis. For the calculation of reactive lysine, the main contribution came from the chromatographic determination of lysine. The uncertainty estimates were compared to available validation data (in-house and collaborative standard deviations of reproducibility).
