Structural and Dynamic Characterization of the Molecular Hub Early Region 1A (E1A) from Human Adenovirus

The small‐DNA human adenovirus encodes one of the most versatile molecular hubs, the E1A protein. This protein is essential for productive viral infection in human cells and a vast amount of biologically relevant data are available on its interactions with host proteins. Up to now, however, no high‐resolution structural and dynamic information on E1A is available despite its important biological role. Among the different spliced variants of E1A, two are expressed at high level in the early stage of infection. These are 243 and 289 residues isoforms. Herein, we present their NMR characterization, showing that they are both highly disordered, but also demonstrate a certain heterogeneous behavior in terms of structural and dynamic properties. Furthermore, we present the characterization of the isolated domain of the longer variant, known as CR3. This study opens the way to understanding at the molecular level how E1A functions.     

Synthesis,anticancer evaluation,and docking studies of some novel azo chromene derivatives

We have described a simple, convenient, and high-yielding one-pot synthesis of novel azo chromene derivatives via a three-component reaction of various azo aldehydes with dimedone and malononitrile using 10 mol% of 1,8-diazabicyclo[5.4.0]undec-7-ene (DBU) as catalyst and ethanol as solvent at reflux condition. All the synthesized compounds have been characterized using Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), ¹H NMR, ¹³C NMR, and HR-MS spectra and molecular docking was performed to explore new inhibitors of human placental aromatase cytochrome P450 and cyclooxygenase-2 enzymes. Of all the compounds docked, compound (E)-2-amino-4-(4,4-dimethyl-2,6-dioxocyclohexyl)-6-((3-methoxyphenyl)diazenyl-4H-chromene-3-carbonitrile ( 4o ) showed good binding affinity with the active site of human placental aromatase cytochrome P450 enzyme (PDB: 3EQM) with inhibition constant (Ki) 1.66 nM and compound 4o also showed good binding affinity with the active site of cyclooxygenase-2 enzyme (PDB: 6COX) with inhibition constant (Ki) 367.17 pM. In vitro anti-cancer activity studies against MCF-7 cells were also performed for compounds 4o , anastrozole and celecoxib. Compound 4o showed an effective cytotoxicity at 19.8 μg/ml compared to anastrozole and celecoxib (24.7 and 26.2 μg/ml).

荧光光谱法研究双醋瑞因与人血清白蛋白的相互作用

在模拟人体生理条件下（pH=7.40）,采用荧光光谱法研究双醋瑞因与人血清白蛋白的相互作用。 采用2种方法计算不同温度下其结合常数KA、结合位点数n,同时对2种计算方法进行了比较;并根据热力学参数确定了双醋瑞因与人血清白蛋白之间的作用力类型。 根据Forster非辐射能量转移原理,确定了双醋瑞因与人血清白蛋白相互结合时供能体 受能体间的作用距离和能量转移效率,并用同步荧光光谱研究了双醋瑞因对人血清白蛋白构象的影响。 结果表明,双醋瑞因与人血清白蛋白之间主要是以静态猝灭为主;结合距离r=2.88 nm,能量转移效率E=0.273 8,二者主要凭借氢键和范德华力进行结合。     

Effect of Temperature on Self‐Interaction of Human‐Like Collagen

Effects of temperature on self‐interaction of human‐like collagen (HLC) were investigated by hydrophobic interaction chromatography, calorimetric measurement, and sodium dodecyl sulphate‐polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS‐PAGE) analysis. Results show that three types of interaction roles may exist between HLC molecules at 3–50°C, which were divided into three narrower temperature ranges. In temperature range from 3–22°C, hydrogen bonding plays a key role in the formation of a gelatinous aggregate. In the range of 22–38°C, hydrophobic bonds accompanied by hydrogen bonds are involved in the formation compact aggregates. When temperature is above 38°C the hydrophobic effect formed in the HLC monomer results in the loss of its ability to self‐interact.     

高效亲和色谱法测定2种中药成分与人血清白蛋白的结合率

采用高效亲和色谱技术(HPAC)对中药成分与人血清白蛋白(HSA)的相互作用进行了研究。首先采用点击化学的方法制备了表面键合有HSA蛋白的硅胶固定相并装填成亲和色谱柱,根据药物在该色谱柱上与空白硅胶柱上的保留时间差计算得到药物与蛋白的结合率。利用该方法测得模型化合物华法令与HSA的结合率与文献中采用超滤法测得的结果基本一致,表明该方法可用于测定药物与HSA的结合率。在此基础上用该方法测定了葛根素和告依春两种中药成分与HSA的相对结合率分别为10.26%和10.20%。同时用超滤的方法测定了葛根素与HSA的结合率为14.25%。结果表明,HPAC可以作为研究药物与蛋白相互作用的一种简便可行的方法,其测定结果与超滤方法一致。     

Efficient Chemical Protein Synthesis using Fmoc-Masked N-Terminal Cysteine in Peptide Thioester Segments

We report an operationally simple method to facilitate chemical protein synthesis by fully convergent and one-pot native chemical ligations utilizing the fluorenylmethyloxycarbonyl (Fmoc) moiety as an N-masking group of the N-terminal cysteine of the middle peptide thioester segment(s). The Fmoc group is stable to the harsh oxidative conditions frequently used to generate peptide thioesters from peptide hydrazide or o-aminoanilide. The ready availability of Fmoc-Cys(Trt)-OH, which is routinely used in Fmoc solid-phase peptide synthesis, where the Fmoc group is pre-installed on cysteine residue, minimizes additional steps required for the temporary protection of the N-terminal cysteinyl peptides. The Fmoc group is readily removed after ligation by short exposure (<7 min) to 20 % piperidine at pH 11 in aqueous conditions at room temperature. Subsequent native chemical ligation reactions can be performed in presence of piperidine in the same solution at pH 7.

Ash and Slag Waste as a Secondary Raw Material

In the process of industrial corporation activities a lot of waste, which pollutes the atmosphere, is generated, for example ash and slag. In Tomsk region, by estimates, ash stores occupy about 600 hectares, which contain about 25 million tons by weight. In Russian thermal power-stations ash disposal areas there are about 1.3 billion tons of ash, and only 10% of it is used. That is why this problem is topical enough. In this paper the scheme of producing ash ceramic bricks and complex ash and slag waste processing is shown. Besides, profitability of the project is presented.
