Bacterial strain NYT501, which we previously isolated from soil, was identified as Stenotrophomonas maltophilia, and it was confirmed that this strain produces an intracellular β-N-acetylhexosaminidase exhibiting transglycosylation activity. Several properties of this enzyme were characterized using a partially purified enzyme preparation. Using N,N′-diacetylchitobiose (GlcNAc)2 and N,N′,N″-triacetylchitotriose (GlcNAc)3 as substrates and dried cells of this bacterium as a whole-cell catalyst, chitin oligosaccharides of higher degrees of polymerization were synthesized. (GlcNAc)3 was generated from (GlcNAc)2 as the major transglycosylation product, and a certain amount of purified sample of the trisaccharide was obtained. By contrast, in the case of the reaction using (GlcNAc)3 as a substrate, the yield of higher-degree polymerization oligosaccharides was comparatively low. 相似文献
A new malyngamide (1) was isolated along with seven known compounds (2–8) from the marine cyanobacterium Moorea producens collected in Hawaii. Compound 1 represented the first reported malyngamide with a hydroxy moiety at C-7 of the characteristic fatty acid portion of the compound. Compound 1 showed cytotoxicity against L1210 cell line at an IC50 value of 2.9 mM and lethal toxicity against the shrimp Palaemon paucidens at a LD100 value of 33.3 mg/kg. The bioactivity of compound 1 was approximately 10–100 times weaker than those of isomalyngamides A and B (3, 4). These results indicated that the methoxy group at C-7 of the fatty acid section confers a degree of bioactivity in malyngamides. 相似文献
Hydrogenation of methyl 3,5-dioxohexanoate 3 using Ru2Cl4((R) or (S)-binap)2(NEt3) as the catalyst gave dominantly anti 3,5-dihydroxyester 9, which was then converted into unsaturated lactone 4. The pathway of the hydrogenation reaction was also investigated. 相似文献
The use of molecularly imprinted polymers polymerized in a capillary for the separation of amino acid enantiomers by electrochromatography
is described. The substrate-selective polymers were prepared by using l-phenylalanine anilide as print molecule and methacrylic acid as the functional monomer. The treatment of the inside surface
of the capillary, the composition of the polymer and the electrochromatographic running conditions were investigated. This
preliminary report demonstrated a novel and simple method for capillary electrochromatographic separations of amino acid enantiomers
using molecularly imprinted polymers.

We investigated the synergistic wound‐healing effects of D ‐glucosamine (GlcN) and collagen peptide ( : 10 000 Daltons soluble collagen (S‐Co)) on injured cartilage. A injured cartilage model in rabbit was surgically created. Under general anesthesia, three holes at articular cartilage of the medial trochlear (one hole) and trochlear sulcus (two holes) of a distal femur were created using a high‐speed orthopedic drill. After surgery, rabbits were orally administered with collagen peptide (S‐Co group), GlcN (G group), or both (CoG group) for 2 or 3 weeks. In addition, glycine (Gly group) was administered as a control for the S‐Co group in three rabbits. Control rabbits were provided with water ad lib. After 2 weeks, the holes were filled by fibroblasts and chondroblasts in the treatment group, whereas in the control group, the holes were not filled completely unlike for the treatment group. Even three weeks later, only a small change was seen in the control group. In the group receiving collagen and GlcN, the holes were completely filled by proliferating chondroblasts, remodeling of bony trabeculae was also observed. Image analysis of Safranin O‐ and Alcian blue‐stained specimens showed increased production of proteoglycans and glycosaminoglycans, respectively, not only in the injured site, but also in the normal cartilage in the treated groups. The most enhanced healing of injury and increase in Safranin O and Alcian blue positive materials was observed in the CoG group. As a result, simultaneous administration of collagen and GlcN gave a fairly enhanced healing on restoration of cartilage injuries.

The specific optical rotations of (R)-oxopropaline D calculated by two ab initio MO methods were +52+/-31 degrees and +61+/-29 degrees, respectively, and (+)-oxopropaline D (3) was presumed to have an R-configuration. On the basis of this theoretical result, the reaction of 1-litio-beta-carboline with (R)-glyceraldehyde acetonide followed by oxidation with MnO(2) gave (R)-oxopropaline D acetonide (4a), which was consistent with the previously synthesized (+)-oxopropaline D acetonide (4) in all respects. From the results of theoretical calculations and the experimental synthesis, we determined that natural (+)-oxopropaline D (3) has an R-configuration. 相似文献
The chlorinative ene-type reaction of isoprenoids ( → ) has been performed by electrolysis in CH2Cl2-H2O-NaCl system. The reaction provides useful allylic chlorides for terpene synthesis in high yields and is affected strikingly by the nature of halide ions and solvents. dl-Theaspirane was prepared from α-dihydroionol the electrolysis. 相似文献
Ion flotation is used to concentrate chromium(VI) in the range 3–70μg l-1 from 14 samples. The chromium(III)—diphenylcarbazone complex formed by reaction with diphenylcarbazide is floated efficiently with sodium lauryl sulfate, and the subsided foam is measured spectrophotometrically after simple dilution. Continuous flotation methods at solution flow rates of 2, 3 and 4 l h-1 are discussed. 相似文献
A new monoterpene glucoside (1) and three new natural megastigmane glycosides (2-4) were isolated along with a known megastigmane glucoside (5) from twigs with leaves of Juniperus communis var. depressa (Cupressaceae) collected in Oregon, U.S.A., and their structures were determined on the basis of spectral and chemical evidence. In addition, the antibacterial activities of the isolated components against Helicobacter pylori were also investigated. 相似文献
Cationic graft copolymerizations of bicyclic acetals, 1,6-anhydro-2,3,4-tri-O-benzyl-β-D -glucopyranose (LGTBE) and 1,6-anhydro-2,3,4-tri-O-methyl-β-D -glucopyranose (LGTME), were investigated with macromolecular carbenium ions formed from polymers that contain reactive halogens. Macromolecular complex catalysts formed from chlorosulfonated polyethylene or poly(isoprene-co-chloromethylstyrene) by the action of phosphorus pentafluoride yielded graft copolymers with low proportions (0.6–16%) of poly(LGTBE) or poly(LGTBE-co-epichlorohydrin) branchings. It was found that macromolecular complex catalysts formed from poly(styrene-co-fluoromethylstyrene) or poly(methyl methacrylate-co-fluoromethylstyrene) by the action of boron trifluoride etherate give graft copolymers with high proportions (up to 80%) of poly(LGTBE) or poly(LGTME) branchings. In addition, the model reactions for the graft copolymerization of LGTBE were examined with organic halide-PF5, organic halide-AgPF6, and organic fluoride-BF3·OEt2 catalytic systems, of which the last two indicate that the polymerization is effected by a carbenium ion mechanism. 相似文献
