共振光散射成像检测5,10,15,20-四(对三甲基氨基苯)卟吩诱导的DNA超螺旋聚集体

A resonance light scattering （RLS） imaging method was proposed based on imaging and measuring the RLS features of single suprahelical species of DNA, and its appfication to DNA assay was also investigated. In acidic medium, porphine-5,10,15,20-tetrakis（p-phenyltlimethylaminium） （PTPTMA）, could stack along the molecular surface of DNA with the mode of long-range assembly to induce the formation of suprahelical species of DNA, resulting in strong RLS signals in the range of 450-510 nm. Under the excitation of 488 nm fight beam of argon ion laser source, single suprahelical species could be observed with the aid of a common microscope due to the strong scattered fight emitted by the suprahelical species. By capturing the RLS images of the single suprahelical species with a cooled charge coupled device （CCD） camera, and analyzing the RLS data, herein an RLS imaging method of DNA was proposed based on the linear relationship between the counts of suprahelical species in the detection focus plane and the concentration of DNA in nanograms. When 1.8 μmol/L PTPTMA was employed, both calf thymus DNA （ct DNA） and fish sperm DNA （fs DNA） in the range of 25-1100 ng/mL could be detected with the limits of detection lower than 25 ng/mL （3a）. Four synthetic samples were detected satisfactorily with relative standard deviations less than 5.1%.     

硫杂蒽酮类稀土配合物的合成、表征及与DNA的作用(I)

合成了新的O-(硫杂蒽酮-[2]-基)-氧乙酸及其稀土配合物. 通过元素分析, IR, ¹H NMR, UV, DTA-TG和¹³C NMR谱对其结构进行了表征. 研究表明: 配体羧羰基脱质子后与金属离子配位, 2位氧原子也与金属离子配位, 配合物中含有一定量的配位水, 配合物为非电解质类型. 同时, 研究了O-(硫杂蒽酮-[2]-基)-氧乙酸稀土配合物对质粒DNA的切割作用. 结果表明: 铕的配合物对DNA的切割较明显, 且当配合物浓度增加时, 质粒DNA的超螺旋构型逐渐减少, 而缺刻、开环型构型逐渐增多. 在相同条件下, Eu(III)离子对质粒pBR322DNA几乎没有切割作用; 配体O-(硫杂蒽酮-[2]-基)-氧乙酸对质粒pBR322DNA也有切割作用, 但配合物EuL₃对质粒pBR322DNA的切割作用明显强于配体, 表明稀土离子Eu(III)与配体生成配合物后有较好的协同切割作用.

GIF S-亚硝基化的一些见解

Neural growth inhibitory factor （GIF）, a member of metallothionein family （metallothionein-3, MT3）, was well known by its distinct neural growth inhibitory activity, which is not shown by other MT isoforms. However, till now, people still did not know clearly how GIF exerts its biological functions. Since it has been reported that GIF might serve as NO scavenger and was related to the release of zinc, our study was focused on the interaction of GIF and NO. By studying the reactions of human GIF and human MTlg with SNOC-a type of NO donor, it was found that GIF was more reactive than MT-lg toward SNOC. In order to further figure out if the high reactivity of GIF in this reaction resulted from the acid-base catalysis, several mutants were constructed： E23K, E41G/E43A, E23K/E41G/E43A. By studying their basic properties and the reactions toward SNOC, it was found that the S-nitrosylation of GIF was not only related to the acid-base catalysis, but also to the accessibility of metal-thiolate clusters.     

Theoretical Study on the Antioxidant Activity of Curcumin

The computational results for curcumin at the B3LYP/6-31G(d,p) level show that the enol form of curcumin is more stable than the diketo form because of an intramolecular hydrogen bond, which extends the conjugation effect in the enol chain, formed in the enol structure. Cis-diketone form can not be obtained, presumably due to the strong repulsion between the carbonyl dipoles aligned in parallel. According to the phenolic O-H bond dissociation enthalpy, curcumin in its most stable form can be suggested to be a relatively good antioxidant. In order to avoid overcoming H-bond interaction and to improve the antioxidant activity of curcumin, a catechol moiety was incorporated into curcumin for designing a novel antioxidant. It is found that the designed molecule is much more efficient to scavenge radical than curcumin, comparable to vitamin E. Moreover, the ionization potential of the designed molecule is similar to that of curcumin, indicating that the designed molecule can not display the prooxidant effect.     

锂在共轭双键高分子中的电化学嵌入反应III. 锂嵌入聚噻吩的量子化学计算†

采用Gaussian软件和HF方法, 通过从头计算(ab initio)法选取4-31G基组计算锂离子嵌入聚噻吩过程中结构与结合能的变化关系. 发现噻吩聚合时主要生成三或四聚合物. 聚合物在Li原子(或Li^＋离子)嵌入后, 聚噻吩间距离明显变小, 同时发生电荷转移, 形成稳定嵌合物; 并使噻吩环的C-α—C-β键级变小. 同时, 研究了锂离子(或原子)嵌入后体系的HOMO, LUMO能级. 聚噻吩在嵌入锂离子时LUMO轨道能级变为负值, 成为电池反应得电子的正极. 而金属Li₂ 释放Li^＋后的Li^－的HOMO能级为＋0.7427 eV, 则成为给电子的负极. 由此, 可以完成由锂/聚噻吩在高氯酸锂电解质中组成的放电过程, 并提出嵌合键级概念用来表征锂在聚噻吩间的结合程度.
