Isothermal Titration Microcalorimetric Studies of the Effect of Temperature on Hydrophobic Interaction between Proteins and Hydrophobic Adsorbents

This study attempted to comprehend how temperature affects hydrophobic interaction between proteins and hydrophobic adsorbents. By equilibrium batch analysis, we measured the adsorption isotherm to evaluate the protein-adsorbent affinity, while isothermal titration calorimetry was used to measure the adsorption enthalpy. In addition, the affinity and enthalpy differences between two proteins, alpha-chymotrypsinogen A and trypsinogen, with two adsorbents, butyl-Sepharose and octyl-Sepharose gel, under varying temperatures were studied with respect to the exposed hydrophobic segments of the protein and ligand hydrophobicity. The enthalpies obtained in this investigation can be used to more thoroughly understand the hydrophobic interaction between proteins and adsorbents. First, the adsorption isotherm experiments reveal that the adsorption quantity of the proteins with the Sepharose gels increases with temperature. For a microcalorimetric measurement, as temperature is increased from 298 to 310 K, the DeltaH value of alpha-chymotrypsinogen A with butyl-Sepharose increases, while the DeltaH value of trypsinogen is reduced. This is likely due to the fact that alpha-chymotrypsinogen A has a higher area of exposed hydrophobic segments than trypsinogen does. This observation also implies that as temperature increases, the interaction mechanism of alpha-chymotrypsinogen A with butyl-Sepharose changes from an adsorption-dominated process to a partitioning process. In addition, for octyl-Sepharose, the DeltaH value of alpha-chymotrypsinogen A is positive and decreases with temperature increment. However, the DeltaH value of trypsinogen was positive and increased with temperature. Therefore, we conclude that as temperature increases, the interaction mechanism of the proteins for octyl-Sepharose is a partitioning-dominated process. Copyright 2000 Academic Press.     

Taxumairols X--Z,new taxoids from Taiwanese Taxus mairei

In addition to 19-dydroxybaccatin III, 1beta-hydroxy-5 alpha-deacetylbaccatin I, taxayuntin G and 13-O-deacetyltaxumairol Z (4), three new taxane diterpenoids, taxumairols X (1), Y (2), Z (3) have been isolated from extracts of the Formosan Taxus mairei (LEMEE & LEVL.) S. Y. HU. Compounds 1-2 belong to the 11(15-->1)-abeo-taxane system, having a tetrahydrofuran ring at C-2, C-3, C-4 and C-20. The new compound 3 and 4, which was misidentified previously are derivatives of 11(15-->1)-abeo-taxane with an intact oxirane system. The structures of compounds 1-4 were elucidated on the basis of extensive two dimensional (2D)-NMR analysis.     

Molecular basis for antifreeze activity difference of two insect antifreeze protein isoforms

The insect spruce budworm(Choristoneura fumiferana) produces antifreeze protein(AFP) to assist in the protection of the over-wintering larval stage and contains multiple isoforms. Structures for two isoforms,known as CfAFP-501 and CfAFP-337,show that both possess similar left-handed β-helical structure,although thermal hysteresis activity of the longer isoform CfAFP-501 is three times that of CfAFP-337. The markedly enhanced activity of CfAFP-501 is not proportional to,and cannot be simply accounted for,by the increased ice-binding site resulting from the two extra coils in CfAFP-501. In or-der to investigate the molecular basis for the activity difference and gain better understanding of AFPs in general,we have employed several different computational methods to systematically study the structural properties and ice interactions of the AFPs and their deletion models. In the context of intact AFPs,a majority of the coils in CfAFP-501 has better ice interaction and causes stronger ice lattice disruption than CfAFP-337,strongly suggesting a cooperative or synergistic effect among β-helical coils. The synergistic effect would play a critical role and make significant contributions to the anti-freeze activity β-helical antifreeze proteins. This is the first time that synergistic effect and its implica-tion for antifreeze activity are reported for β-helical antifreeze proteins.

Investigation of the effect of epoxide structure on the initiation efficiency in isobutylene polymerizations initiated by epoxide/TiCl4 systems

The effect of the chemical structure of styrene-based epoxides, namely, styrene epoxide (SE), α-methylstyrene epoxide (MSE), p-methylstyrene epoxide (pM-SE) and α-methyl-p-methylstyrene epoxide (pM-MSE), in conjunction with TiCl₄, on the initiation efficiency (I_eff) in the carbocationic polymerization of isobutylene (IB) was investigated. SE yielded living polymerization, but the initiation efficiency was low when compared to MSE (I_eff=8% and 35%, respectively). pM-SE led to non-living IB polymerization, while pM-MSE revealed linear M_n-conversion plot and narrow MWD with a non-linear first order rate plot. Among the epoxides investigated, MSE was the best initiator to scale up the one-step synthesis of polyisobutylenes (PIBs) carrying one primary hydroxyl head group and one tertiary chloride end group. The hydroxyl functionality of these PIBs determined by ¹H-NMR was F_n=1.09±0.16 from 24 experiments.

Clustering files of chemical structures using the fuzzy k-means clustering method

This paper evaluates the use of the fuzzy k-means clustering method for the clustering of files of 2D chemical structures. Simulated property prediction experiments with the Starlist file of logP values demonstrate that use of the fuzzy k-means method can, in some cases, yield results that are superior to those obtained with the conventional k-means method and with Ward's clustering method. Clustering of several small sets of agrochemical compounds demonstrate the ability of the fuzzy k-means method to highlight multicluster membership and to identify outlier compounds, although the former can be difficult to interpret in some cases.
