The structure of the title S‐alkylated isothiosemicarbazide, C12H15N3OS, was determined by single‐crystal diffractometry and compared with the structures of other compounds containing the S‐alkylthiosemicarbazide moiety. Such structures cluster into two groups, according to the different orientation of the –SR group with respect to the hydrazine N atom of the thiosemicarbazide. The cis arrangement is preferred by most molecules in the solid state, in spite of the possibility of intramolecular N—H?N interactions in the opposite orientation. 相似文献

Homogeneous and enzymatic catalysis offer complementary means to generate enantiomerically pure compounds. Incorporation of achiral biotinylated rhodium-diphosphine complexes into (strept)avidin yields artificial metalloenzymes for the hydrogenation of N-protected dehydroamino acids. A chemogenetic optimization procedure allows one to produce (R)-acetamidoalanine with 96% enantioselectivity. These hybrid catalysts display features reminiscent both of enzymatic and of homogeneous systems. 相似文献

We report on the generation of artificial metalloenzymes based on the noncovalent incorporation of biotinylated rhodium-diphosphine complexes in (strept)avidin as host proteins. A chemogenetic optimization procedure allows one to optimize the enantioselectivity for the reduction of acetamidoacrylic acid (up to 96% ee (R) in streptavidin S112G and up to 80% ee (S) in WT avidin). The association constant between a prototypical cationic biotinylated rhodium-diphosphine catalyst precursor and the host proteins was determined at neutral pH: log K(a) = 7.7 for avidin (pI = 10.4) and log K(a) = 7.1 for streptavidin (pI = 6.4). It is shown that the optimal operating conditions for the enantioselective reduction are 5 bar at 30 degrees C with a 1% catalyst loading. 相似文献

The mode of action of precious metal anticancer metallodrugs is generally believed to involve DNA as a target. However, the poor specificity of such drugs often requires high doses and leads to undesirable side-effects. With the aim of improving the specificity of a ruthenium piano-stool complex towards DNA, we employed a presenter protein strategy based on the biotin-avidin technology. Guided by the X-ray structure of the assembly of streptavidin and a biotinylated piano-stool, we explored the formation of metallodrug-mediated ternary complexes with the presenter protein and DNA. The assemblies bound more strongly to telomere G-quadruplexes than to double-stranded DNA; chemo-genetic modifications (varying the complex or mutating the protein) modulated binding to these targets. We suggest that rational targeting of small molecules by presenter proteins could be exploited to bind metallodrugs to preferred macromolecular targets. 相似文献

F?rster resonance energy transfer (FRET) is a powerful optical technique to determine intra-molecular distances. However, the dye rotational motion and the linker flexibility complicate the relationship between the measured energy transfer efficiency and the distance between the anchoring points of the dyes. In this study, we present a simple model that describes the linker and dye dynamics as diffusion on a sphere. Single-pair energy transfer was treated in the weak excitation limit, photon statistics and scaffold flexibility were ignored, and different time-averaging regimes were considered. Despite the approximations, our model provides new insights for experimental designs and results interpretation in single-molecule FRET. Monte Carlo simulations produced distributions of the inter-dye distance, the dipole orientation factor, κ(2), and the transfer efficiency, E, which were in perfect agreement with independently derived theoretical functions. Contrary to common perceptions, our data show that longer linkers will actually restrict the motion of dye dipoles and hence worsen the isotropic 2∕3 approximation of κ(2). It is also found that the thermal motions of the dye-linker system cause fast and large efficiency fluctuations, as shown by the simulated FRET time-trajectories binned on a microsecond time scale. A fundamental resolution limit of single-molecule FRET measurements emerges around 1-10 μs, which should be considered for the interpretation of data recorded on such fast time scales. 相似文献

New unsymmetrical [N2O2] tetradentate Schiff base complexes of Ni(II), Cu(II), Zn(II), and VO(II) were synthesized by template condensation of the tetradentate precursor 1-phenylbutane-1,3-dione mono-S-methylisothiosemicarbazone with o-hydroxybenzaldehyde or its 5-phenylazo derivative. They were characterized by elemental analysis, IR, UV-vis, electron spin resonance, and NMR spectroscopy, mass spectrometry, and magnetic measurements. The crystal structures of five of them have been determined by X-ray diffraction using, in some cases, synchrotron radiation. These compounds are characterized by a large thermal stability; their decomposition temperatures range from 240 up to 310 degrees C. Complexes with the phenylazo substituent were found to possess a large second-order nonlinear optical (NLO) response, as determined both by measurements of solution-phase direct current electric-field-induced second harmonic generation and by theoretical time-dependent density functional theory (TDDFT) calculations. The molecular hyperpolarizability was found to decrease in the order Zn(II) > Cu(II) > Ni(II) approximately VO(II). The active role of the metal in determining the NLO properties of the complexes was shown through an analysis of their UV-vis spectra, which revealed the presence of metal-to-ligand (in closed-shell complexes) and ligand-to-metal (in open-shell complexes) charge-transfer bands together with intra-ligand charge-transfer transitions. Assignment of the bands was based on the analysis of the TDDFT computed spectra. 相似文献

Src Homology 2 (SH2) domains are the paradigm of phosphotyrosine (pY) protein recognition modules and mediate numerous cancer-promoting protein-protein complexes. Effective SH2 domain mimicry with pY-binding coordination complexes offers a promising route to new and selective disruptors of pY-mediated protein-protein interactions. We herein report the synthesis and in vitro characterization of a library of coordination complex SH2 domain proteomimetics. Compounds were designed to interact with phosphopeptides via a two-point interaction, principally with pY, and to make secondary interactions with pY+2/3, thereby achieving sequence-selective discrimination. Here, we report that lead mimetics demonstrated high target phosphopeptide affinity (K(a) ~ 10(7) M(-1)) and selectivity. In addition, biological screening in various tumor cells for anticancer effects showed a high degree of variability in cytotoxicity among receptors, which supported the proposed two-point binding mode. Several receptors potently disrupted cancer cell viability in breast cancer, prostate cancer, and acute myeloid leukemia cell lines. 相似文献

Preliminary studies of mixed films composed of oligonucleotides and poly(2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate) (PHEMA) have recently been shown to enhance the selectivity for detection of 3 base-pair mismatched (3 bpm) oligonucleotide targets. Evaluation of selectivity for detection of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) using such mixed films has now been completed. The selectivity was quantitatively determined by considering the sharpness of melt curves and melting temperature differences (ΔTm) for fully complementary targets and SNPs. Stringency conditions were investigated, and it was determined that the selectivity was maximized when a moderate ionic strength was used (0.1-0.6 M). Increases of ΔTm when using mixed films were up to 3-fold larger compared to surfaces containing only immobilized oligonucleotide probes. Concurrently, increases in sharpness of melt curves for 1 bpm targets were observed to be up to 2-fold greater for mixed films. The co-immobilization of PHEMA resulted in a more homogeneous distribution of oligonucleotide probes on surfaces. Lifetime measurements of fluorescence emission from immobilized oligonucleotide probes labeled with Cy3 dye indicated the difference in microenvironment of immobilized oligonucleotides in the presence of PHEMA. 相似文献
