The goal of this investigation was to correlate the melanin content in human pigmentary cells with the generation of UVB-induced photoproducts and to examine the relationship between the melanin content and the removal of the photoproducts. Cultured melanocytes from light-skinned individuals synthesized less melanin and produced more cyclobutane pyrimidine dimers and 6-4 photoproducts upon UVB exposure than did melanocytes from black skin. Tyrosine-stimulated melanogenesis provided protection against DNA damage in both cell types. In another set of pigmented cell lines a ratio between eumelanin and pheomelanin was determined. The assessment of association between DNA damage induction and the quantity and quality of melanin revealed that eumelanin concentration correlated better with DNA protection than pheomelanin. Skin type-I and skin type-VI melanocytes, congenital nevus (CN)-derived cells and skin type-II melanocytes from a multiple-melanoma patient were grown in media with low or high L-tyrosine concentration. The cells were irradiated with 200 J/m2 UVB, and the levels of the photoproducts were determined immediately and after 6 and 24 h. Once again the induction of the photoproducts was mitigated by increased melanogenesis, and it was inversely correlated with the skin type. No significant differences were found for the removal of photoproducts in the cultures of skin types I and VI and CN cells. No indications of a delay in the removal of photoproducts in the melanocytes from the multiple-melanoma patient were found either. 相似文献

From deuterium labelling experiments it was concluded that metastable molecular ions of ethyl methyl sulfide lose a methyl radical with the formation of both [CH3S?CH2]+ amd [CH3CH?SH]+˙ The fragmentation reactions of metastable ions generated with these structure are losses of C2H2, H2S and CH4. These reactoins and the preceding isomerizations have also been studied by means of deuterium labelling. From the results it is concluded that the three fragmentation reactions most probably occur from ions with a C? C? S skeleton. Appearance energy measurements for ions generated with the two structures above and all give rise to the same ΔHf value for these three isomeric forms. Ab initio molecular orbitals calculations confirm that these three ions fortuitously have very similar heats of formation. A potential energy diagram rationalizing the isomerizations and the principal fragmentation reaction is presented. 相似文献

The optical absorption and magnetic circular dichroism (MCD) spectra of the mononegative ion of naphthalene in a solution of 2-methyltetrahydrofuran have been measured at room temperature over the 25000–41000 cm?1 spectral region. Experimental values of the MCD parameter B/D are compared with theoretical data obtained by means of an LCAO SCF CI calculation according to Pariser, Parr and Pople. The agreement between theory and experiment is rather good. 相似文献

The electronic structure and bonding of UF6 and UF6− are studied within a relativistic framework using the MOLFDIR program package. A stronger bonding but more ionic molecule is found if one compares the relativistic with the nonrelativistic results. The first peak in the photoelectron spectrum of Karlsson et al. is assigned to the 12γ8u component of the 4t1u orbital, in agreement with other theoretical and experimental results. Good agreement is found between the experimental and theoretical 5f spectrum UF6−. Some properties, like the dissociation energy and electron affinity, are calculated and the necessity of a fully relativistic framework is shown. The Breit interaction has an effect on the core spinors and the spin-orbit splitting of these spinors but the influence on the valence spectrum is negligible. © 1996 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 相似文献

Summary Results and details of molecular Fock-Dirac-(Breit) calculations on CH4, SiH4, GeH4, SnH4, and PbH4 obtained with the MOLFDIR© program package are presented and compared with other calculations and experimental results. The relativistic ground state energies (including the Breit interaction) of the atoms C, Si, Ge, Sn, and Pb, necessary for reference purposes, have been calculated using a small relativistic CI. One of our findings is that for the heavier systems perturbation theory over-estimates the relativistic bond length contraction. The Breit interaction has only a small effect on the bond lengths. 相似文献

Ab initio SCF MO calculations using a contracted double zeta basis set of 168 gaussian type functions were performed on TCNQ+, TCNQ, TCNQ? and TCNQ2?. The ionisation potentials obtained from total energy differences are generally 0.25-0.50 eV higher than the corresponding negative orbital energies from the TCNQ calculation and in satisfactory agreement with experimental results. The energy of the disproportionation reaction 2TCNQ?-TCNQ+TCNQ2? is calculated to be 4.62 eV. The charge distributions as measured by the gross atomic populations generally deviate from those obtained in earlier π-electron calculations as a consequence of taking the σ-electron distribution into account. The atomic charges are in good agreement with the limited experimental data available. 相似文献

Ab initio MO calculations, using both minimal (STO -3G) and extended (Roos–Siegbahn) basis sets are reported for the systems methanethiol–imidazole, methanethiol–imidazole–formaldehyde, and methanethiol–imidazole–formamide, which, together with a point-change representation of a long α-helix, form models for the active site of papain. It is shown that the large electric field exerted by the helix in the active-site region is responsible for the presence of the essential residues Cys 25 and His 159 in the form of an ion pair RS? ··· ImH+, which is crucial for a recently proposed mechanism for the catalytic action of the enzyme. Also, an explanation is given for the anomalies in measured pK values for these residues. Detailed studies on the (sub)systems show that minimal basis sets lack the flexibility necessary for describing the type of proton transfer involved. We conclude that α-helices are essential parts of enzymes and that they play a significant role in the catalytic process. 相似文献

Ab initio theoretical results for the 2p- and 3p-hole states of an Mn(2+) ion are reported in order to determine the importance of atomic contributions to the photoelectron spectra of bulk MnO. A combined treatment of relativity and electron correlation reveals important physical effects that have been neglected in virtually all previous work. The many-body and relativistic effects included in the atomic model are able, without any ad hoc empirical parameters, to explain most of the features of the MnO photoelectron spectra. In particular, it is not necessary to invoke charge transfer to explain the complex p-level spectra. 相似文献
