A molecular dynamics simulation study of peptide deformylase from Leptospira interrogans complex：Exploring the closing mechanism of the substrate pocket

To explore the closing mechanism of the substrate pocket,we perform a 16,000 ps molecular dynamics simulation separately on the ligand-free and actinonin-bound peptide deformylase from Leptospira interrogans.Our results show that the CD-loop, hydrophilic inhibitor and hydrophobic cluster are necessary for the formation of semi-open conformation,and Tyr71 plays an important role in mediating the movements of CD-loop.The average MD structure of the actinonin-bound LiPDF complex approaches to the crystal structure.These are consistent with experiment very well.     

硼离子对铕掺杂SiO2干凝胶发光性能的影响

采用溶胶-凝胶法制备了Al单掺和B，Al共掺的Eu掺杂SiO2干凝胶。利用荧光光谱、IR，XRD，DSC，TG／DTG等技术研究了硼离子、退火温度对样品发光性质的影响。经500℃以上退火处理用248nm激发的样品，产生Eu^3＋离子^5D0→^7FJ的特征发射，^5D0→^7F1的跃迁分裂为两个峰。比较615nm处的发光强度，掺硼酸样品的发光强度是不加硼酸发光强度的3．3倍。这是因为B离子的加入，在材料中形成了Si—O—B键，破坏了网络的对称性，加强了Eu^3＋的红光发射。当退火温度上升到850℃用350nm激发时，样品有很强的Eu^2＋蓝光发射。Al单掺的发射中心在437nm处，发射半峰宽约为70nm，而B，Al共掺样品的发光中心蓝移到425nm处，单掺样品的蓝光强度几乎是共掺样品强度的2倍。这是由于硼酸的加入改变了基质的网络结构，从而导致单掺和共掺样品发射峰位和强度的改变。

Cross‐Linked Aptamer–Lipid Micelles for Excellent Stability and Specificity in Target‐Cell Recognition

The specific binding ability of DNA–lipid micelles (DLMs) can be increased by the introduction of an aptamer. However, supramolecular micellar structures based on self‐assemblies of amphiphilic DLMs are expected to demonstrate low stability when interacting with cell membranes under certain conditions, which could lead to a reduction in selectivity for targeting cancer cells. We herein report a straightforward cross‐linking strategy that relies on a methacrylamide branch to link aptamer and lipid segments. By an efficient photoinduced polymerization process, covalently linked aptamer–lipid units help stabilize the micelle structure and enhance aptamer probe stability, further improving the targeting ability of the resulting nanoassembly. Besides the development of a facile cross‐linking method, this study clarifies the relationship between aptamer–lipid concentration and the corresponding binding ability.

Magnetic mixed hemimicelles solid-phase extraction of xanthohumol in beer coupled with high-performance liquid chromatography determination

In this study, silica-coated magnetic nanoparticles (Fe(3)O(4)/SiO(2) NPs) modified by cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) were synthesized. They were successfully applied for extraction of xanthohumol in beer based on magnetic mixed hemimicelles solid-phase extraction (MMHSPE) coupled with high-performance liquid chromatography-ultraviolet determination. The main factors influencing the extraction efficiency including the surfactant amount, the beer pH, the extraction time, the desorption condition and the maximum extraction beer volume were optimized. Under the optimized conditions, a concentration factor of 60 was achieved by extracting 120 mL beer sample using MMHSPE and the detection limit of xanthohumol is 0.0006 mg/L. The proposed method was successfully applied for determination of xanthohumol in various beer samples with the xanthohumol contents in the range of 0.031-0.567 mg/L. The satisfactory recoveries (90-103%) were obtained in analyzing spiked beer samples.
