The purpose of the work presented here was to prepare a support material for enzymes and “affinity ligands” with the following characteristics: low cost, durability, rigidity, and high capacity. Our study encompassed conjugates of porous and nonporous silicas with organic polymers and macroporous ion-exchange resins. Poly-ethyleneimine (PEI), polyacrylic acid (PAA), poly (methyl vinyl ether/maleic anhydride) were attached to porous glass and silica in various combinations. The composite of silica beads with PEI and PAA is a good support for the enzyme trypsin as judged by the activity against N-α-benzoyl-L-arginine ethyl ester.
Amberlyst (macroporous, sulfonated polystyrene) was activated by treatment with thionyl chloride; the resulting resin was either used directly or reacted with a diamine. The diamine derivative was used for enzyme coupling or transformed further to the succinyl or p-aminobenzoyl derivative. None of these derivatives were particularly good as supports for the enzyme trypsin. Duolite converted to a PAA, succinyl, or succinimide derivative was a good support. The enzyme-resin adduct has good activity and stability.
The resin is quite durable and of low cost. The Duolite-trypsin has good activity against protein. In addition, this derivative was active in 7 M urea. The proteolytic activity was nearly doubled by urea, presumably as a result of substrate (casein) denaturation. The michaelis constants and pH dependences are compared for trypsin conjugates with Duolite A-7, Silica-PEI-PAA, agarose, and porous glass. A cost comparison reveals that the Duolite and silica derivatives are much less expensive than agarose and glass. 相似文献

Mesogenic compounds containing four rings in the core usually have very high melting points. However, when two identical lateral benzyloxy groups are introduced on the same side of one of the central rings, the melting point is lowered dramatically and a large nematic range is retained. This range is affected by the bulkiness of the para-substituents in the lateral rings. Methyl groups can be introduced in the ortho- or meta-positions with a consequent decrease in the melting temperature without much affecting the nematic range. These compounds exhibit a rich solid polymorphism which is certainly related to the effect of the conformations of the lateral substituent on the molecular arrangment in the solid phase. Some preliminary NMR experiments on the nematic phase indicate that the molecular long axis coincides with the core axis, whereas the para-axis of the lateral fragment makes an angle close to the magic angle with respect to the molecular long axis. 相似文献
We make the case for benzo[c]quinolin‐6‐ylidene ( 1 ) as a strongly electron‐donating carbene ligand. The facile synthesis of 6‐trifluoromethanesulfonylbenzo[c]quinolizinium trifluoromethanesulfonate ( 2 ) gives straightforward access to a useful precursor for oxidative addition to low‐valent metals, to yield the desired carbene complexes. This concept has been achieved in the case of [Mn(benzo[c]quinolin‐6‐ylidene)(CO)5]+ ( 15 ) and [Pd(benzo[c]quinolin‐6‐ylidene)(PPh3)2(L)]2+ L=THF ( 21 ), OTf ( 22 ) or pyridine ( 23 ). Attempts to coordinate to nickel result in coupling products from two carbene precursor fragments. The CO IR‐stretching‐frequency data for the manganese compound suggests benzo[c]quinolin‐6‐ylidene is at least as strong a donor as any heteroatom‐stabilised carbene ligand reported. 相似文献
A current challenge for proteomics is detecting proteins over the large concentration ranges found in complex biological samples such as whole‐cell extracts. Currently, no unbiased, whole‐proteome analysis scheme is capable of detecting the full range of cellular proteins. This is due in part to the limited dynamic range of the detectors used to sense proteins or peptides. We present a new technology, structured illumination (SI) gel imager, which detects fluorescently labeled proteins in electrophoretic gels over a 1 000 000‐fold concentration range. SI uses computer‐generated masks to attenuate the illumination of highly abundant proteins, allowing for long exposures of low‐abundance proteins, thus avoiding detector saturation. A series of progressively masked gel images are assembled into a single, very high dynamic range image. We demonstrate that the SI imager can detect proteins over a concentration range of approximately 1 000 000‐fold, making it a useful tool for comprehensive, unbiased proteome‐wide surveys. 相似文献
We argue that recent results in string perturbation theory indicate that the four-graviton amplitude of four-dimensional N=8 supergravity might be ultraviolet finite up to eight loops. We similarly argue that the h-loop M-graviton amplitude might be finite for h<7+M/2. 相似文献
Indium‐bridged [1]ferrocenophanes ([1]FCPs) and [1.1]ferrocenophanes ([1.1]FCPs) were synthesized from dilithioferrocene species and indium dichlorides. The reaction of Li2fc?tmeda (fc=(H4C5)2Fe) and (Mamx)InCl2 (Mamx=6‐(Me2NCH2)‐2,4‐tBu2C6H2) gave a mixture of the [1]FCP (Mamx)Infc ( 41 ), the [1.1]FCP [(Mamx)Infc]2 ( 42 ), and oligomers [(Mamx)Infc]n ( 4 n ). In a similar reaction, employing the enantiomerically pure, planar‐chiral (Sp,Sp)‐1,1′‐dibromo‐2,2′‐diisopropylferrocene ( 1 ) as a precursor for the dilithioferrocene derivative Li2fciPr2, equipped with two iPr groups in the α position, gave the inda[1]ferrocenophane 51 [(Mamx)InfciPr2] selectively. Species 51 underwent ring‐opening polymerization to give the polymer 5 n . The reaction between Li2fciPr2 and Ar′InCl2 (Ar′=2‐(Me2NCH2)C6H4) gave an inseparable mixture of the [1]FCP Ar′InfciPr2 ( 61 ) and the [1.1]FCP [Ar′InfciPr2]2 ( 62 ). Hydrogenolysis reactions (BP86/TZ2P) of the four inda[1]ferrocenophanes revealed that the structurally most distorted species ( 51 ) is also the most strained [1]FCP. 相似文献
A range of 1,3,4-oxadiazoles have been synthesized using a UV-B activated flow approach starting from carboxylic acids and 5-substituted tetrazoles. The application of UV light represents an attractive alternative to the traditional thermolytic approach and has demonstrated comparable efficiency and versatility, with a diverse substrate scope, including the incorporation of highly substituted amino acids. 相似文献
