Purification and characterization of recombinant murine endostatin in E. coli

Endostatin, a carboxyl-terminal fragment of collagen XVIII is known as an anti-angiogenic agent, that specifically inhibits the proliferation of endothelial cell and the growth of several primary tumor. We report here the purification and characterization of the recombinant murine endostatin (rmEndostatin) which was expressed in a prokaryotic expression system. This rmEndostatin has similar physiochemical properties of yeast-produced recombinant endostatin, and it also specifically inhibits the proliferation and migration of bovine capillary endothelial cells stimulated by basic fibroblast growth factor. The biological activity of rmEndostatin was also shown by its anti-angiogenic ability on the chorioallantoic membrane of chick embryo in vivo. In this article, we demonstrate the refolding and purification of rmEndostatin, expressed using E. coli system, to a biologically active and soluble form. In addition, these results confirm the activity of endostatin as a potent anti-angiogenic agent.

Magnetic couplings in vanadium aromatic sandwich complexes and their crystals by using DFT methods

Using density functional theory, we have theoretically studied the origin of ferromagnetic coupling of spins in the long multiple deckers of vanadium sandwich complexes with benzene (Bz). This is done by calculating the band structure of their infinite one-dimensional (1D) crystals along the periodic (=Z) direction. We find that the magnetic coupling can be ascribed to spin polarization in the band (= those derived from d(z2)) whose k states are not involved in the formation of partial covalent bonds between vanadium atoms and benzene rings. We have also studied magnetic and electronic properties of multiple deckers of a naphthalene (Np)-vanadium complex. We find that there is a stronger covalent interaction as well as a stronger electrostatic interaction between V and Np rings than between V and Bz rings. This suggests that there is a possibility of longer multiple deckers of a Np-V complex. In addition, ferrimagnetic coupling of spins is expected, resulting in a magnetic moment 45% larger than that of the Bz-V complex at the same length. For their 1D crystals, band structure analysis also shows that the origin of magnetic coupling in long multiple deckers should be similar to that of Bz-V multiple deckers.     

Through-space delocalized water-soluble paracyclophane bichromophores: new fluorescent optical reporters

Conjugated polymers and oligomers can serve as highly responsive fluorescent reporters for biosensor applications. However, their optical properties in aqueous media are highly dependent upon environmental conditions. The structure of the paracyclophane framework provides a platform for designing optical reporters that show little sensitivity to surfactants, and thus is well-suited for fluorescent assays. The permanent intramolecular delocalization through the paracyclophane core dominates intermolecular perturbations in spontaneously formed aggregates.     

Theoretical Study on the Structures and Stability of Isomers and Complex of[Si,C,O,O] Sytem

A detailed singlet potential energy surface(PES) of [Si,C,O,O] system including a van der Waals (vdW) comples SiO……CO2,eight isomers,and twelve transiton states is investigated by MP2 and QCISD(T) (single-point)methods.At the final QCISD(T)/6-311 G(2df)//MP2/6-311G(d) level with zero-point energy included,the complex SiO……CO is found to be thermodynamically and kinetically the most stable species.Although eight ismoers are located as local energy minima,they are rather unstable toward isomerization to the dissociation fragments or comples.For the reaction of silocon atoms with carbon dioxide,two competitive reaction channels are found,and the primary pathway,which leads to the products of SiO and CO fragments,is the direct oxygen-abstraction process from carbon dioxide by silicon atom with a41.16 kJ/mol reaction barrier height.Our predications are in good agreement with previous experimental and theoretical studies.
