The time delay experiment proposed by I.I. Shapiro in 1964 and conducted in the seventies was the most precise experiment
of general relativity until that time. Further experimentation has improved the accuracy level of both the time delay and
the light deflection experiments. A simulation model is proposed that involves only a simple mass and time transformation
factor involving velocity of light. The light deflection and the time delay experiments are numerically simulated using this
model that does not use the general relativistic equations. The computed values presented in this paper compare well with
recent levels of accuracy of their respective experimental results. 相似文献

Little is known about the effect of conformation on passive membrane diffusion rates in small molecules. Evidence suggests that intramolecular hydrogen bonding may play a role by reducing the energetic cost of desolvating hydrogen bond donors, especially amide N-H groups. We set out to test this hypothesis by investigating the passive membrane diffusion characteristics of a series of cyclic peptide diastereomers based on the sequence cyclo[Leu-Leu-Leu-Leu-Pro-Tyr]. We identified two cyclic hexapeptide diastereomers based on this sequence, whose membrane diffusion rates differed by nearly two log units. Results of solution NMR studies and hydrogen/deuterium (H/D) exchange experiments showed that membrane diffusion rates correlated with the degree of intramolecular hydrogen bonding and H/D exchange rates. The most permeable diastereomer, cyclo[d-Leu-d-Leu-Leu-d-Leu-Pro-Tyr] (1), exhibited a passive membrane diffusion rate comparable to that of the orally available drug cyclosporine A. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: The ability to target specific DNA sequences using small molecules has major implications for basic research and medicine. Previous studies revealed that a bis-intercalating molecule containing two 1,4,5,8-napthalenetetracarboxylic diimides separated by a lysine-tris-glycine linker binds to DNA cooperatively, in pairs, with a preference for G + C-rich sequences. Here we investigate the binding properties of a library of bis-intercalating molecules that have partially randomized peptide linkers. RESULTS: A library of bis-intercalating derivatives with varied peptide linkers was screened for sequence specificity using DNase I footprinting on a 231 base pair (bp) restriction fragment. The library mixtures produced footprints that were generally similar to the parent bis-intercalator, which bound within a 15 bp G + C-rich repeat above 125 nM. Nevertheless, subtle differences in cleavage enhancement bands followed by library deconvolution revealed a derivative with novel specificity. A lysine-tris-beta-alanine derivative was found to bind preferentially within a 19 bp palindrome, without substantial loss of affinity. CONCLUSIONS: Synthetically simple changes in the bis-intercalating compounds can produce derivatives with novel sequence specificity. The large size and symmetrical nature of the preferred binding sites suggest that cooperativity may be retained despite modified sequence specificity. Such findings, combined with structural data, could be used to develop versatile DNA ligands of modest molecular weight that target relatively long DNA sequences in a selective manner. 相似文献

We present two new variants of Schur complement domain decompositionpreconditioners suitable for 2D anisotropic problems. Thesevariants are based on adaptations of the probing idea, describedby Chan et al (1992 Fifth Int. Symp. on Domain DecompositionMethods for Partial Differential Equations, Philadelphia: SIAM,pp 236-249), used in conjunction with a coarse grid approximationas introduced by Bramble et al (1986 Math. Comput. 47, 103-134).The new methods are specifically designed for situations wherethe coupling between neighbouring interfaces is stronger thanthe coupling within an interface. Taking into account this strongcoupling, one variant uses a multicolour probing technique toavoid distortion in the probe approximations that appear whenusing the method proposed by Chan et al. The second techniqueuses additional probe matrices to approximate not only the couplingwithin the interfaces but also the coupling between interfacepoints across the subdomains. This latter procedure looks somewhatlike an alternating line relaxation method for anisotropic problems,see Brandt (1977 Math. Comput.. 31, 333-390). To assess therelevance of the new preconditioners, we compare their numericalbehaviour with well known robust preconditioners such as thebalanced Neumann-Neumann method proposed by Mandel (1993 Commun.Numer. Methods Eng.. 9, 233-241). 相似文献

The ‘anomalous perihelion precession’ of Mercury, announced by Le Verrier in 1859, was a highly controversial topic for more
than half a century and invoked many alternative theories until 1916, when Einstein presented his theory of general relativity
as an alternative theory of gravitation and showed perihelion precession to be one of its potential manifestations. As perihelion
precession was a directly derived result of the full General Theory and not just the Equivalence Principle, Einstein viewed
it as the most critical test of his theory. This paper presents the computed value of the anomalous perihelion precession
of Mercury's orbit using a new relativistic simulation model that employs a simple transformation factor for mass and time,
proposed in an earlier paper. This computed value compares well with the prediction of general relativity and is, also, in
complete agreement with the observed value within its range of uncertainty. No general relativistic equations have been used
for computing the results presented in this paper. 相似文献

Click chemistry as a macrocyclization tool in the solid-phase synthesis of small cyclic peptides 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Despite the vast number of techniques developed for the cyclization of small peptides, cyclization efficiency remains problematic in peptides that lack turn-promoting structures. Here we demonstrate the utility of click chemistry as a macrocyclization tool in the solid-phase synthesis of cyclic tetra-, penta-, hexa-, and heptapeptides. On-resin cyclization is completed at room temperature within 6 h, resulting in predominantly monomer with small amounts of cyclomultimer byproducts. 相似文献

A sensitive and reliable high‐performance liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry (LC–MS/MS) was developed and validated for simultaneous quantification IC87114, roflumilast (RFM), and its active metabolite roflumilast N‐oxide (RFN) using tolbutamide as an internal standard. The analytes were extracted by using liquid–liquid extraction and separated on a reverse phase C18 column (50 mm × 3 mm i.d., 4.6 µ) using methanol: 2 mM ammonium acetate buffer, pH 4.0 as mobile phase at a flow rate 1 mL/min in gradient mode. Selective reaction monitoring was performed using the transitions m/z 398.3 > 145.9, 403.1 >186.9, 419.1 > 187.0 and 271.1 > 155.0 to quantify quantification IC87114, RFM, RFN and tolbutamide, respectively. The method was validated over the concentration range of 0.1–60 ng.mL?1 for RFM and RFN and 6 to 2980 ng.mL?1 for IC87114. Intra‐ and inter‐day accuracy and precision of validated method were within the acceptable limits of <15% at all concentrations. Coefficients of correlation (r2) for the calibration curves were >0.99 for all analytes. The quantitation method was successfully applied for simultaneous estimation of IC87114, RFM and RFN in a pharmacokinetic drug–drug interaction study in Wistar rats.
